abelcha Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Hi everybody, my english is bad (i'm french), so i'm gonna try to make the simpliest explanation possible Here is my configuration : Macbook 13' / Intel core I7, 4go, OS 10.8.2, Logic Pro 9.1.7 2 days ago everything was OK Than I installed Windows 7 with Vmware, and do few things (installing antivirus, ), I've installed Ubuntu too. Now : The rainbow wheel start rolling indefinitely (obliging me to shutdow the app) in the following cases : - When i try to load a virtual instrument/Plugin - When i click on a toolbar button (ex : Preference) - When i put a sidechain on a compressor * I can load a previous set, and tweak the previously loaded instrument, but i cant change the instrument. ** I can go to the preference via the top bar (finder - files...), but when i click on preference in the logic window, it bug. What I've done by mysesf to resolve it : - Reboot with cmd-alt-p-r - disable all my plugins - delete windows and vmware - reinstall logic - install the 9.1.8 update Unfortunatly nothing worked. There is no crash report because i'm obliged to shut it down by myself. Please help me, this is driving me crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Cardenas Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Try excluding the windows partition from the Spotlight index. System Preferences > Spotlight > Privacy.

abelcha Posted October 30, 2012 Author Share Posted October 30, 2012 It doesn't work, sorry but what's the rapport between the spotlight and logic ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n6smith Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Spotlight is used by Logic to keep a track of every file you might use in Logic.. be it loops.. Au Plugin presets and so on. A Window's partition can screw up Spotlight causing issues when Logic tries to find things... This is why you should exclude it from Spotlight. Also VMware (and Parallels for that matter) have caused me all kinds of weird issues... so I got rid of both a while ago.. and used BootCamp instead which works perfectly and removes all possibility of issues/interactions with OS X Finally, after uninstalling VMware, I found my system still had issues. It took a full wipe/fresh install of the OS and Logic to fix these problems. I can only assume that uninstalling VMware did not undo some changes that the install of VMware did, to my system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end I got a windows standalone computer to run the one program i needed that isn't available on the Mac.... (Sonar.. and that's only because two of my clients insist on using it!)
