I installed 10.7.8 today and now Logic Pro X crashes on launch. I tried removing the prefs and that didn't make a difference. I tried rebooting and that didn't help.
I'm dead in the water, I have a ton of stuff installed (plugins and such) so wiping the machine is not practical.
MacBook Pro (2017 – 2020)
I'm sorry to tell you, the only "fix" is to revert to a version that works for you. This can be done frome a backup. Either a (Time Machine) backup, a zipped file of an older version or a version from a friend / colleague. We have to spread the following to the world:
Thanks, but NO forget it. I will switch to studio one and to a PC. After 22 Years of use Emagic/Apple Logic, I see that Apple change to many things that was good. And there is no good I/O solution. To print it, in a Hybrid Studio is a nightmare.
So many time my work stopped for a stupid bugy update. Plugins fall out and how much time I had to bought it a plugin again. Only Antares was 4-5 times in that 22 Years.
AND FLEXTIME IS A MESS!!! Only glitches and artefacts and apple will never never fix that.
Studio one comes with Melodyne and perfect I/O integration and i haven’t to buy a fancy mac..
Sorry apple, but my love ends here.
Hi, I had the same issue after 10.7.8 was automatically installed on my MAC with OSX 12.6.6. It would crash when opened and I sent the crash report to apple. I recovered a 10.7.7 from my time machine and the crash immediately stopped. I did not try to reinstall 10.7.8 and probably a good decision given that other are experiencing the same exact crash as I experienced. So far no update from apple to address this issue.
Same here!
I Sent crash reports, tried different remedies (removed all plugins, removed preference files, rebooted multiple times, opened files that used to work)... no luck. I then contacted apple, and have been waiting for more than a week for a response. Am really not impressed!! Clearly apple did not test this update to 10.7.8 sufficiently. I am on Ventura 13.4 (Intel)
I now have an unusable installation of Logic Pro which I cannot use and am now unable to do any work as a result.
Apple is doing nothing to fix this.
I'm in the same boat (still). Logic is completely unusable. Luckily I wasn't too deep into any new project and I've been able to recreate the ones I was working on in Ableton, but if I need to update any of the older projects, I am stuck (maybe forever).
If I ever get it working again, I will go back to my old strategy of freezing a machine once everything is working well and never updating until I get a new machine, I'm so sick of Apple destroying my ability to make music arbitrarily. This is why I switched from Windows in the first place.
While it's not at all appreciated that Apple have screwed up like this I found a work round which might help.
I used Time Machine to restore the original version then went into Settings- General - Startup Action and selected Do Nothing.
When I updated to the new version, which has some useful stuff in it (not the snake-oil claims but useful) I can open all my old projects without any problem.
Hope this helps.
Shame on you Apple. Get this sorted, you've had months.
I've been running into the same problem. Please let me know if you find a fix.
BTW, all was good after reverting back to 10.7.7 from 10.7.8. I then tried to install 10.7.9 over 10.7.7, same crashes as 10.7.8. Reverted once more to 10.7.7 and all is good.
Same issue here with MacBook Air M1 and same Logic Pro version.
Very disappointing that all this time the issue has not been resolved.
