Hi all,
Since the latest release of GarageBand, when I open the application, it automatically launches the last opened project. I recall this happening in Logic Pro before but there was an option to disable it. Can't seem to find this in GarageBand.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Lewis.

When you hold down the ⌥-key while launching GarageBand, it will open a File Chooser dialog and not open the last project. But for some reason, it will take longer to launch this way than simply letting it first open the wrong project.
Or you could open the project that you want by double-clicking it in the Finder.

Thanks for the tip L eonie,
I'll use this until a more permanent solution comes along.

With GarageBand open you can go to then hover over File > Open Recent then click Clear Menu. Close GarageBand. When you reopen it you will get the project menu. I, too was looking for a way to open GB without reopening a past project. It isn't as ideal as disabling the option but it is a work around.
