Result Code Error -5000

When adding some (most but not all) sound effects to a project I get the following:


An Error Occurred

Result Code = - 5000

File = GarageBand-Temp-DC0255B0.tmp


The File name changes each time. I can hear the loop when I click the effect in the browser but it will not let me drag the sound fx into the project.


I have an iMac 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

2 GB of ram

running OS X.6.8

Garage Band 11 6.0.4

iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

Hi,

I've been trying to solve this problem for a school my companey has set up. After some research and looking at a number of similar posts I tracked the problem down to loops that came with jam packs or with apps like soundtrack pro. These loops are located in /Library/audio/appleloops. If you give everyone read and write access to this folder and it items the loops seem to work.


I also noticed that once the loops were working agin GB had to convert the sample rate so it's possible that it's the sample rate on certain loops that causess the issue or prehaps the need to change the rate.


Hope this helps.
