Push not working in Live 10

Just updated to 10 and not only am I annoyed that VST's can now only be 64-bit, so I will have to go through a few years of reinstalling them but Push is not working.
I have switched it on and off with Live open, but I am getting nothing, just the Push logo screen.
I thought this would automatically update or am I wrong???

Cheers

There is a firmware release for Push alongside Live 10, so you have to let the firmware update first.

Cheers mate, I did look if there was a firmware but obviously not hard enough.

Once updated for 10, does it continue to work with Live 9?

Cheers

Once Live 10 installed, do a restart with Push switched off, open Live 10, then once Live is ready, then turn Push on, and on the Push screen should tell you firmware update, just follow instructions.

Windows https://help.ableton.com/hc/en-us/artic ... 2-Windows-

Mac https://help.ableton.com/hc/en-us/artic ... ush-2-Mac-

There is a firmware section in those setup guides.

Just got it working. So for those of you who may encounter the same problem when going from 9 to 10, it disabled it itself in midi preferences. Input 1 and 2 were still set to Push 2 but for some reason Control Surface had changed to none. Selected Push for this and hey presto.

Cheers and Mark you were right too :)

I got the same problem with my Push 2, "push" logo stuck at Live 10 launch. No red frame in Live session to signal Push2, but in Preferences, Push2 was enabled as control surface.

Fear. Hate computers. Etc.

I don't know what exactly made it work fine, but here's what I did, in case it could help:

* changed the Push2 from an USB3 port to an USB2, my ASRock motherboard is a little touchy on USB3. Unreliable, I mean.
* reset all control surfaces to none in Live 10 and exit Live.
* switch off computer, wait a few minutes, restart
* switch off Push2, launch Live 10
* switch on Push2.

In the end, I had the "Firmware update please wait" message on Push 2, or something similar.

After that, everything was fine. Had no need to go to preferences to enable Push2, everything was setup fine automatically.

Wish everybody luck with that update.

Nothing worked for me, then I clicked on register product anyway- > and entered the serial key even though the product was already registered... then i restarted ableton and got an update message on Push2 . My life is perfect now.
