Once logic 10.2 launches nothing appears (previous window showing project launching)? Project eventually opens but no visible reference as in the past while plug ins load successfully

Once logic 10.2 launches nothing appears (previous window showing project launching)? Project eventually opens but no visible reference as in the past while plug ins load successfully. Eventually the project loads fine and no plug in issues. This all started happening after El Capitan. Re-installEd Logic X Pro and El Capitan and still same issue

ANy one else experiencing this? Suggestions?

Logic Pro X, OS X El Capitan (10.11)

The project opens, and plays? Then what is the issue? It takes too long? How long, exactly? And are there many sampled instruments used?

Project eventually opens and works fine. What's missing is the pop up window that previously launched showing the project loading...and the piug in scanning

Now, you launch the app or open a project and then the app icon bounces and there is nothing on the screen. Then a while later the project suddenly appears.

Well, I do see all those in Logic 10.2, OS 10.9.5, and if you don't see them, maybe you have somehow set it up so those are suppressed, or maybe they appear in a different space, or maybe they are beyond the boundaries of your screen resolution (which can happen if you switch to a higher resolution and back, although the OS often "knows" about the change and rearranges windows so they stay on screen.)

The fact that everything loads and works fine to me would indicate that the only "issue" is that those progress windows don't seem to appear. The processes they represent work anyway.

The plugin validation really should only happen when a new plugin is installed, though I know there are some buggy 3rd party plugins that do not "remember" they were validated. So the disappearance of that at least is sign of an issue less. And the main window only ever appeared after loading, so that's normal.

Negative, no changes whether I change the resolution, and I do not have any spaces open. This only started happening once I upgraded to El Capitan. From what I researched, non of the plug ins I have installed have issues with OSX 10.11. The program seems to be working fine, just a bit odd that you technically have no physical pop up window in place showing the progress of the project loading. Just have to sit waiting patiently until BOOM it appears.

I've been able to reproduce the same issue with a brand new project, from a new template, and with no 3rd party plugins.

I have been faced with the same issue in Logic Pro X ever since I upgraded to El Capitan.

Same here.

It showed the first time I opened it after upgrading to El Capitan. Then I upgraded OSX and since then it didn't appear.

I guess it's a bug from the new OSX upgrade?

It't a known issue with El Capitan. The splash screen will appear the first time on EC and any time you will scan for new plugins but the other times the app seems to just stand still and it will appear out of the blue. We'll have to wait for a Logic update.

I just upgraded from 10.10.5 to 10.11.2 about a week ago, using Logic 10.2

Yes, this is a "new feature" since the upgrade.

It can be very frustrating because you just don't know when/if the project will ever open.

If I look at the Logic Icon in the dock during the wait it says "Application not responding" and you have the Force Quit option.

But I discovered that if I wait long enough eventually the project opens (well usually !)

I hope a Logic update is not too far away 😟
