  • Perhaps of interest regarding VE and OS 10.4.11

    I installed (using the Combo update) OS 10.4.11 today and then the various related updates (ProApp, SoundTrack Pro, Compressor, QuickTime, iTunes) - - first on a clone of the startup drive where I experienced no difficulties, then on the main startup drive.

    Starting from the main drive, I attempted to open a file which had both VE and Kompakt multi-instruments instantiated. VE showed up but did not load any samples. Logic 8 crashed and Kompakt never showed up at all.  I then ran DiskWarrior and rebuilt the directory. When I restarted and attempted to open this file, I received Sycrosoft error messages stating that certain Vienna Instrument Libraries had not passed the license detection process and suggesting that I move the Vienna Key to a different USB port. I shut down the computer and moved the Vienna Key to a different USB port on my USB hub. I booted the computer and launched the file. The file opened successfully - - both the VE and Kompakt multi instruments loaded the correct samples and settings.

    Below is a copy of the report created by DiskWarrior :

    DiskWarrior has successfully built a new optimized directory for the disk named "Xanthar I." The new directory is
    ready to replace the original directory.
    Notes:
    All file and folder data was easily located.
    Optimizing the Catalog Tree Directory File has increased available disk space.
    Comparison of the original and replacement directories indicates that there will be changes to the number, the
    contents and/or the attributes of the files and folders. It is recommended that you preview the replacement
    directory and examine the items listed below. All files and folders were compared and a total of 14,741,576
    comparison tests were performed.
    • Errors, if any, in the directory structure such as tree depth, header node, map nodes, node size, node counts, node
    links, indexes and more have been repaired.

    Explanations:
    Text Encoding: File and folder names are stored in Unicode characters. The text encoding value indicates the method
    used to convert the file name to Unicode. Repairs prevent the name from being displayed incorrectly.
    Volume Information: Every disk has information that describes its contents. Repairs prevent problems such as wasted
    disk space and applications not functioning properly.
