Yes- looks that way- it was a full project file before though-

When I tried to open it through Logic, like you describe, I get the "The document "whatever" could not be opened".

No ideas? Anyone? Please help!

Macbook Pro, i5, 8gbRAM, OS10.13.3, Logic 10.4 2 120GB SSDs internal 1- 128 Monster SSD external 1- 2TB WD external Reformatted two hard drives recently(problem with iCloud and time machine)- but I backed up what was important on two separate external drives. Reformatted my secondary drive(backup) first, then moved things onto it, and reformatted the primary. Then moved the files back. Upon going through everything to make sure its all right, ONE project looks different- instead of the normal thumbnail that looks like a thumbnail of the project, this is simply the silver CD, in a black rectangle, with the word "Project" underneath it- when I attempt to open it, I get this message -" The operation could not be completed, no other information is available about the problem.". In an attempt to not freak out- I quickly plugged in my back up- it is the same----my second backup---- ITS THE SAME. I have no idea why that ONE project will not open, or why it universally changed, or can not be read. Its a lot of time- please tell me this is solvable- I have already tried to "import" the file from the Logic browser- then I got this "The format of this project is not compatible with this Logic Pro X version. Please open and save the project to convert to a compatible format."--? I made it in Logic- I have never used any other program/app/DAW- I have also tried opening up the permissions on the file- that did nothing. At least not as far as opening, or getting it to read it, goes- I have found a couple other files that did this as well now-

thank you! However- NOW i cant seem to add anything to the tracks I used flex on, without it changing them! WTH?! Keeps making them longer

Ok- opened up a project today I have been working on for weeks(years, really), last night even. However- now upon opening it this morning, it told me that "one or multiple regions have been changed in length"- and my only option is to say "ok"- so I do, and now several of my regions are not only horribly off, they have this symbol next to their name <=>, if I copy and paste the correct regions from other tracks(since some are doubled) they paste in THE SAME INCORRECT WAY THEY WERE before! These are all tracks made from 4 vocal "takes"- so there are sections of different audio files. Its basically moved around the start and end points, typically to areas that don't even make sense, like they're not even close to where the region was within the file. I have also tried making a new track with the proper regions, deleting the original track, and replacing with the new one, which worked partially, some regions still "changed" to the incorrect ones. please help..........

YES!! I think that worked- definitely seems like it! Apple loops working again- and I can edit audio again! Thank you!!

This sounds exactly like symptoms from the issue I described in the article. Can you double check that you really have a file structure inside ~/Music/Audio Music Apps? If it's an orphaned Alias you can try this: Quit Logic Pro X. Delete the Alias ~/Music/Audio Music Apps then create a new folder on this location and give it the name Audio Music Apps. Open the Terminal and paste this code followed by enter: open /.HFS+\ Private\ Directory\ Data?/ A new Finder window will reveal your hidden content. Copy the content inside the 'dir_######' folder and paste it inside your new Audio Music Apps folder. Relaunch Logic Pro X. I apologize for my ignorance- Im not sure what an "orphaned alias" is, and even a search didn't really seem to help explain it. I went to the Music folder, from/in "User"- there is an "Audio Music Apps" folder there. When I try to open that i get this message " "The alias “Audio Music Apps” can’t be opened because the original item can’t be found. ", which also gives me the options to "delete alias", or "fix alias", and theres an "ok" button as well.

Am I basically screwed until they figure this out- or would reverting to the last OS work? That sounds equally problematic!!

Damn- wish i had seen this first!!! Just did what I thought I was supposed to do! Since I upgraded- any time I open Apple loops it just freezes- nothing loads up. Actually I can still move stuff around and listen- doesn't work right or in real time. If I tell it to "index" it will index FOREVER. ok- so I only let it run about 4-5 hours, but i doubt I gave up too quickly. Also- I can not edit audio at all- I can "cut" with the scissor tool, but I can not delete audio. I can delete/remove a region- but not delete, or edit any of it. Those are the main things- Im sure i do not have full capabilities in other areas that I just don't regularly use though- Any time I try to delete/stretch audio I get this message- Error in parameter list / Not an existing volume, and no default volume / Bad positioning information / Bad drive number Result code = -50 File = LogicSampleClip1 I have called apple- after a good hour of dude telling me various things to try out, he said he'd have to talk with the engineering division, and that could be 3-4 days. i called on the 4th day- still have no clue, just told me they're still trying and have not figured it out.
