how can I install logic studio 8 in my new macbook 10.5.8 ?

Hi, Alina.

You are correct.

Run each .pkg file, starting from the first one in the list.

If I remember correctly, there will be others listed throughout the contents pages of each DVD.

Work your way down through all the additional content and everything should be okay.

When you're done. quit pacifist and run LP 8

All the best,

Scorpii

Many thanx Scorpii, process is going on right now.

All the best. Enjoy LP

Thank you Scorpii.

It took me ages to uninstall logic and put it back with Pacifist.

Right now i am running each .pkg file. It takes a lot of time.

I hope everything will run fine. It's almost half of the process right now.

I 'll let you know when LP runs.

Thanx again.

Regards.

Hi Scorpii,

It took a week to run each .pkg file.

Now it's done. Pacifist is still opened.

I try to open logic from the application menu, a window open saying logic won't launch and process failed. I can' t relaunch i have the same message.

I wait for your reply before quiting pacifist.

I am pretty sure i followed the steps correctly.

In the process, i never entered any S/N....I never had any window asking for it....

It drives me crazy.

Thanx for your help.

Hi, Ju.

Sorry I haven't replied before now. [and I'm also sorry this is taking so long and being so frustrating]

When I did the install the entire process only took an hour or so.

It shouldn't take a week to run each package file.

All Pacifist does is replace the PPC loader that isn't present in later versions of the Mac OS after Snow Leopard.

You should also shut down Pacifist after it's finished.

Another thing. Have you run software update?

The instaled version of LP is probably 8.0. The latest is 8.0.2. That may make a difference.

I am also unsure what version of the Mac OS you are running. If it's Mavericks then LP will not work.

Serial number is asked for when you run LP for the first time.

My suggestion. Close down Pacifist and then shut down your mac.

After restart try and run Logic.

[The program is installed in the Applications folder? If it's somewhere else it won't work. The Apps folder is the default, so if you ran the installer packages one after another everything should be in the right place]

Another thing to do is ight click the Logic icon in the apps folder and select package contents. See what's there and try and determine if everything is in there.

regards.

judeuf,

Are you trying to do this from the orginal Logic 8 disks?

If so, the disks are probably the cause of why its taking so long... (scratches, dirt and so on.. along with your DVD drive might be a little flakey..making the disks hard to read..)

so,

Make disk images of the disk(s) and install via Pacifist, from the disk images.. Should be much faster and more reliable.....
