Pspiralife Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I think I may have deleted a system file on my Mac that I shouldn't have. Now Logic looks like this I hope that some one may be able to help me fix this. Thanks in advance for your time Shammie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eriksimon Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 It would help enormously if you could recall or find out (in Console, perhaps?) exactly which file you've deleted. Or where exactly it was located - then it would be a simple matter of extracting that file using Pacifist. I think the second speediest solution is to reinstall your OS on top of your current OS - so NOT a clean reinstall, but a 'reparation' reinstall. I also have to ask: WHAT WERE YOU THINKING??? I mean, not only did you trash it, you then had to enter your password to confirm it... did you think this was OS 9? I assume you have by now sufficiently facepalmed yourself, as well?

n6smith Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Oddly enough there is someone else on Apple's Support Forums who is having a similar problem.... though in this case it seems it was caused by simply upgrading to ML..... https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4672492?tstart=0 I've never seen this before and suddenly two at the same time... Reminds me of London Buses....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pspiralife Posted January 5, 2013 Author Share Posted January 5, 2013 Actually I fixed it by deleting "com.apple.logic.pro.plist" in preferences Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eriksimon Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Actually I fixed it by deleting "com.apple.logic.pro.plist" in preferences Good for you! Though I have to add that it doesn't make sense to me... the prefs determine wether a font appears..? :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
