Live Crashes on Startup

Post by steve-o » Sat Dec 12, 2009 10:18 pm

Hello All,

I sent a support message to AbletonHQ, but I immediately received an email stating that due to M4L and Live Intro, it would take some time to respond to my mail. So, I though that it wouldn't hurt to post my issue here and see if anybody can help a brother out.

I'm running Live 7.0.18, but I had libraries for Live 8 Beta and Live 8 Demo on my drive. In order to free up space I decided to delete these libraries. After deleting them, Live 7 began crashing on startup. I repaired permissions and rebooted my computer (specs below) but was unable to fix the problem.

If anybody has any suggestions I would love to here them. And if anybody can interpret the cryptic information generated by Apple's Console, I've included that below as well (the log generated by the problem details is just to large to include in this post).

Thanks for any help. In the meantime, I guess I can finally try and learn Renoise!

Peace,

Steve0
