Logic Pro X - Basic Content download not complete

Asks for password after about a quater of the 2 GB is downloaded. Then next time I start Logic Pro X it starts to download basic content again. Is there a link I can download these new files from? I could never get it to work in the old version either...


Thanks'

Thanks for posting this link. At least, using a 3rd party download manager, I seem to be getting the essential content file on my very slow Internet connection. If Apple could just provide a direct link to this content in the first place, it would help a lot of folks with less than optimal Internet access and save them a lot of frustration and aggravation.

ISSUE RESOLVED!!!


Ok so, download AppCleaner for free. Throw the Logic Pro X application in here and it will find all files and caches associated with this program (there should be 5 total) and they should all be checked. Next select delete all and it will remove Logic Pro X and all files associate with it to the trash. Empty the trash. Next, reinstall from Mac App. Store, launch, and the install will complete this time 🙂

Hey, did you do this after realizing that logic x didn't download/install ALL of the software instruments and other content initially? That is what happened to me after I just realized I was missing a bunch of content...I'm trying to re- install from 'download additional content' but it doesn't seem too promising as I know there is much more that doesn't seem to be recognized in the download...

I'm still stuck and it's getting annoying. 😠


I've manualy installed the core audio package (2GB) and after that it started just fine. However, after rebooting it aks if I would like to resume 'essential sounds...' package. Not the core but essential?! Anyway, I said resume, assuming it's some extra instruments wich I might not have in my legacy library, but it's been toasting my HD for over an hour now and I have no clue what it is actually doing.


The activity monitor shows 'com.apple.musicapps.MAContentInstallation' running at 110% CPU. and my HD is morse coding me all kinds of messages...


Is this package an extra package that I should continue to, uhm, download/install?? Or is this a glitchy thing that makes me wanna go back to Logic9 again?


Any help or info would be very appreciated, thanks!
