LIVE 5.2 and dual G4 OS 10.3.9

5.2 crashes when I try to open it... Says something like this:
An error occured while reading bla/bla/preferences.cfg. Apparantly, the document was created by a more recent, and incompatible, version of Live than this. (unknown class "DirectloDevice" not found)
And then it crashes... How can there be a more recent version of Live than 5.2?
Anybody else having this problem??
Please advice!

sounds like ur prefs got corrupted...
01. find the folder in /usr/home/library/preferences/Ableton/. Inside, there should be a folder for each version of live you have installed on the machine. Inside these folders you will find the prefs file, the log file, and crash folder.
02. make a backup, then delete the file. the default prefs should be restored when live launches (it just creates a new one).
bla bla?

Hello jesQuick,
could you let me know which version of Live did you use before Live 5.2?

Hi jesQuick,
Sure... 5.03
Could you send me the preferences file from your Live 5.0.3 version (not the one from Live 5.2):
"~/Library/Preferences/Ableton/Live 5.0.3/Preferences.cfg"
regards,
/Alex
