Logic crashes any time I record enable. Also, it won't quit normally. I have force close the application any time I want to quit. What's wrong here?

From the moment I downloaded Logic it would not quit properly. It won't respond to cmd Q or going to the menu to quit the application. Then when I try to simply record enable a track, the whole thing bugs out and crashes, no matter how many times I restart, same result. This is not how $200 software should act. *** Apple?

Logic Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

This is an oddity that happens if you upgrade from Leopard to Snow Leopard.

Follow the instructions from here.

Don't delete any more than they say in the article.

This should help/fix your situation.

You're right, Apple's software should not behave this way... however, a little background.

Apple purchased this software at version 5.2 from another company, a highly respected company, it's coast at that time was $999.00, which is what I paid for it, it's professional software. Apple priced it at $499 for several years, when it moved to the app store it was reduced to $199, which is dirt cheap. It's all a matter of perspective.

p.s. These are user forums, no one from Apple will respond here, or so they say!

Pancenter, you are the reason I have hope for humanity. I have actually learned a bit about how logic used to be once Apple bought it from some German company(I think). I listened to one of my professors constantly complain about troubleshooting and how expensive the academic version was and that was just in 2009. Now it's a bit more user friendly and vastly cheaper. I was ranting out of frustration, and you calmed that frustration with wisdom. Thank you very much

Well thank you, I sometimes have to have to renew my faith in humanity as well. Quiet solitude and involvement in the arts reminds me that we are essentially a creative species and with that creativity comes both the good...and the bad.
