M4L editor doens't start!! HELP pleez!!

Post by iam@crisscrisscriss.com » Mon Jun 14, 2010 10:26 am

Hello...
I have a simple but huge problem...
M4L editor doesn't open when I press the edit button!
It keeps saying "starting max editor" in the status bar but does nothing really...

I have Ableton 8.1.3 (suite licence) and Max 5.1.4 (M4L licence),
I'm on snow leopard, it used to work a week ago, but suddenly no more..!
It shows up all the licences correctly... And not all the M4L devices are working in live...(?)
Tried to install again both softwares but nothing...

What should I do?? :(

Did you try to "repair your library" already?
(Live Preferences library tab)

Hello,

Can you start Max/msp standalone?
Eventually you should install the latest PACE drivers
Which Max for Live content version do you have installed (check the library tab for the installed version).

Christian

Try
a) completely uninstall Max
b) update the PACE drivers http://www.paceap.com/dldrvr.html
c) try to reinstall Live.

Best,
Christian

Cose I think it's not enough to erase the folder in applications... Right?
