2018.4 Startup Crash

[manfromspace]

Hi,

Upgraded to .4 just now and I can't get protools to launch. I get the startup screen and then crash log.

I've installed via app manager and reinstalled via dmg file. Rebooted. Reset. NADA.

Any ideas?

New 2017 mbp highest specs. Latest os. Ext monitor attached. Apollo Duo w/ satellite for interface.

“latest os” isn’t supported (10.13.4). That may be your issue

Did you try to delete old ProTools pref. files ?

Might help you out ...

There is another thread about PT 2018.4 above this one. Try to post in there as well ...

I think it must be an os thing. 10.13.4 and 2018.4 don't seem to play well. I gave up and trashed everything and reinstalled 2018.3 and everything is working great again. I guess I'll check back from time to time and see if this ever gets ironed out...

There's a note in the forums somewhere from jeffro or one of the other moderators that 10.13.4 is not qualified for a reason (not that it hasn't been tested) for 2018.4. They have seen problems and so are not qualifying it.

10.13.4 here with PT 2018.4 and runs great!

Same here! Completely stuck.

The fix from eddiejag seems to have done the trick for me. Can't explain how or why, but PT now opens no problem. Also, 2018.4 seems to be running more efficiently on my MBP (Mid 2012 2.9 i7) than any previous version. Many thanks to eddiejag!
