Then I called and they had me do some sort of diagnostics test and send it to them. I brought my imac into the Apple store again (I can't possibly stress how much of a massive inconvenience this is by the way, it is just incredibly difficult to do), and they ran hardware tests and found nothing and returned it to me. The crashing started up again in the past few weeks. It crashed a few times and then stopped for a few months. Cost me around $700 and seems to have fixed the problem.īut the week I brought it home my imac started crashing. They recommended I put in a new logic board. The Apple store had my computer last year because it kept not recognizing USBs that I would plug into it. The audio card could be dutifully playing back what your IMac is sending it. Just because the audio card is making chopping sounds doesn't mean the audio card is the thing with the problem. Try to find a different sound card and try that for a e what happens. if you get a crash again, then you can rule out the apogee. I'd get rid of the apogee for a while and try something else and see if the problems come up. You already had to replace your logic board once. What other external hardware do you have connected to your computer via USB or other ports? Can be caused by memory problems too, mouse, keyboard, screen, GPU, motherboard, etc. Very tedious I know, but that is often what you have to do. Most people are only ever to resolve these kinds of issues by either removing all hardware and adding them back in one at a time until something crashes, or the other way, start removing them one at a time. Usually if there is a kernel panic there will be a log file you can inspect that can give you some clues about what caused it, but its not always that easy. I don't know what Apple did in their "diagnostics". Its usually the hardware.Ĭould it be the apogee? Maybe.
#LOGISIM FOR MAC HIGH SIERRA DRIVER#
The kext is basically a driver file that is used to access the hardware and yes a buggy or corrupt kext could I suppose cause a kernel panic, but I think that would be pretty unusual. Well what I can say with fair certainty is that when the mac totally black screens like that, its usually a hardware problem kernel panic. Or, you could post a Dropbox link on this forum and let someone try it (?) Just a thought. One more thing I’d try is copy one of your projects onto a usb drive and bring it to someone else who has Logic (even the Apple store if necessary) and see if the problem occurs there. I’m sorry if this is all obvious stuff that you’ve already tried- I’m just trying to be helpful! Also, as an aside- I know Diskwarrior seems pricey but.it’s saved my neck countless times when Disk Utility couldnt repair a problem, it’s paid for itself many times over. If you’re near an Apple store, I’d make an appointment with them and bring it in, and if not, I’d call apple support-they’ve gone above and beyond to help me several times, even with legacy computers (pre-intel) running ancient OS versions like Leopard. Instead of opening Logic the usual way, I would also try simply dragging a fresh wav file (like off a commercial CD release) from your desktop onto the Logic icon in the dock, in case your existing projects are corrupted. If you can open a project, then I’d immediately go to audio preferences and select “built in output”, Logic should then work, since Disk Utility found no problems and you’re not using any external interface. I’m not quite sure from your posts whether you’ve been able to open Logic at all without the Apogee connected.
