LiVE 5 (all versions) cannot find my VST plug ins..crashes

Post by qmanvox » Fri Sep 29, 2006 9:44 am

Hi Guys

Hope someone can help me. Sorry for essay but rather put the whole story down

Mac G4 Powerbook, OSX 10.4.7, LIVE 5.0 & 5.2.2 loaded.

This was all working up to 2 days ago until I was installing Pro Tools M Powered. It had issues with some fee insruments I had loaded a while ago.

I thought best way was to start fresh, so I reformatted my Powerbook with 10.4.3 as new install and updated to 10.4.7 by software update. I installed Pro Tools first and got that working. I loaded Peak 5.2 and got that working. I loaded LIVE 5.2 from the website and it installed ok. I loaded vst plugins to the usual Library/Audio/Plugins/vst folder as instructed.

I started up live 5.2, entered licence and went to activate plug in folder. It opened up preference screen. I set AU to on without issue. When I tried to switch VST plugin system folder to YES, it did the spinning wheel for 15 seconds and quit. It did the same for Custom VST plugin folder. I tried a few times but same each time. I reloaded my original 5.0 Live to see if it was a 5.2 bug but also did it.

There is no issue with my vst plugins as my other programs can see the vst plugins
:(
HELP please :!:

regards
