Logic Pro 10.8 not opening existing sessions, not giving the option to create new sessions or create sessions from templates

Sorry, that didn't work neither, I tried all 3 SIP settings, no difference.

But, I finally managed to solve the problem by uninstalling ALL of Logic Pro and reinstalling from scratch. By ALL I mean: I also deleted my Sound Library, which was on an external disk. And I deleted the folders ~/Caches/com.apple.musicapps and ~/Caches/com.apple/logic10 as well. My guess is that some broken info was stored somewhere in ~/Caches/com.apple.musicapps and/or in the external Sound Library, which was blocking the normal launching procedure of Logic Pro, making it stop launching somewhere in an unstable status.

But, a big relief, it is working as expected now.

Many thanks for all who helped sort this out, I'm a happy Logic user again!

This might be a Cache issue.

Quit Logic

Go to your User- library>Cache and delete com.apple.logic10 folder

It might also be a good idea to delete or at least move your Logic preferences again.

User-library>Preferences and remove com.apple.logic10.plist and com.apple.logic.pro.cs

Restart your mac and try to restart logic.

hmm, strange thing. last thing i would try is to create a new user account and see if it works there.

Hi. Update to 10.8.1. it should be fixed now.

Disk access in security setting is given for logic ?

Another workaround: uncheck logic from security settings disk access. do a restart in SAFE MODE this will clean up things. Then another Restart, then drag the Logic App to security system again and check it.

Already tried to start logic with option key hold ?

guys: microphone access is given to logic ?

Try:

1)Dont let Logic 10.8 automatically open your Template (eg. do not choose "select template") and choose "new from file" or similar and select the Template from the Files (cant remeber the wording right now)

2) deactivate all Midi Clock sends in the respective device, cause this will break the Start

that’s completely strange… thete must be a file access restriction… what are your SIP settings ? google for it and set it to „medium“ position

Damo, Can you check if have similar errors in the console? that I mention here

The update unfortunately has changed nothing. I am running on a 16” MacBook Pro M1. macOS Ventura 13.6.2 with 32 gb of ram. Ironically, all my other DAW’s work just fine. This is the first time I’ve ever had any issues with Logic.

I try every thing, I found only this on the console log:
