Cant find Logic Pro X preference file

Hi


Im trying to locate the preference files for logic pro x (com.apple.logic10.plist) and (com.apple.logic.pro.cs), I want to delete them.


Ive looked everywhere for them, in the library prefs folder using the option key to go into it, but i cant find them.


Any help would be great


Thanks

You are looking in the wrong library... You are likely looking in the System Library and not the User Library


Follow these instructions exactly as stated...


Delete the user preferences
You can resolve many issues by restoring Logic Pro X back to its original settings. This will not impact your media files. To reset your Logic Pro X user preference settings to their original state, do the following:

  1. In the Finder, choose Go to Folder from the Go menu.
  2. Type ~/Library/Preferences in the "Go to the folder" field.
  3. Press the Go button.
  4. Remove the com.apple.logic10.plist file from the Preferences folder. Note that if you have programmed any custom key commands, this will reset them to the defaults. You may wish to export your custom key command as a preset before performing this step. See the Logic Pro X User Manual for details on how to do this. If you are having trouble with a control surface in Logic Pro X, then you may also wish to delete the com.apple.logic.pro.cs file from the preferences folder.
  5. If you have upgraded from an earlier version of Logic Pro, you should also remove ~/Library/Preferences/Logic/com.apple.logic.pro.
  6. Restart the computer.

No....


The files are exactly as listed...


com.apple.logic.pro.cs


and


com.apple.logic10.plist


If you are sure they are not in your User library then either...


Logic pro X was iunstalled under a different User account....


Or...


Logic Pro X was not installed correctly.....


To double check... to make sure they are not on your system...


Download and install Find Any File from here (Its a free demo)


http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/


Then use that app to search for both those files...


If either of those files exist on your system disk, it will find them.. and then you can delete them manually yourself..


if FAF doesnt find them then LPX did not install correctly and you will need to delete the LPX app and reinstall via the Puchase tab in the Mac App Store
