Default Unable to control ANY application

After using the MC control & Transport for a while only experiencing the common problems (EuCon Crashes, constant need for rebooting etc) a major issue has came upon me.

While the surfaces connect to the Mac just fine (listed under "My Surfaces" etc) they cannot connect to any application anymore.

Previously a good way to see if a restart was successful was to see general apps like Finder or Safari appearing on the touchscreen with respective shortcut keys displayed. Then I could just start up Logic and the surface would lock to that and I was good to go.

Now it locks to nothing. Tried rebooting, reinstalling EuCon, pulling the power to the units etc. But to me this looks like some kind of software issue as the hardware is connected and responding fine in the EuCon Preferences. "Layouts" are all grayed out and blank, "Workstations" are blank and if I try checking the checkboxes under "Lock to application" they get unchecked right away.

The thing has turned into a vegetable...

(OSX 10.10.3, EuCon 3.2.2)

Default Re: Unable to control ANY application

Not much response action here...anyway I found a solution to this problem by creating a new user in OS X, logging out and logging in to that fresh account. This seemed to trigger some kind of software reboot (a EUCON splash screen I have not seen before) and the units started working, also when logging out and back in with my regular account.

I'm just posting this if anyone else comes across the same problem.

sounds like in "Assign" your Programs are Locked to the MC automatically ..

Have you tried the manual approach to starting up: http://avid.force.com/pkb/articles/e...Null-CORBA-POA

This solved my issue.
