In the release notes for 7.10.0 NI states that Logic Pro crashes are a known issue and punts it back at Apple. Perhaps you just haven't given it enough time, I hate to say.

Looks like they had it fixed, or partially fixed in 14.5 Beta 1, and it broke again in 14.5 beta 2

I only moved since I had opportunity to sell the machine at a good price...and move up but the growing pains truly do suck. Similar to when I moved to M1max from my 5,1 with the Ultralite Mk5. That was fun. Thank god they eventually fixed that.

I just did the update and found the same thing: No crashes in DP, Logic or external monitors.

The GUI window flickers on my external monitors but again, no crashes even when I change libraries in a single instance.

As long as this works and I find no other issues, I will stand pat on this beta 3 until the macOS 14.5 official release.

Updating my TechLink, Apple and NI again...

Based on this, would you think it safe to update to 14.4.1 until 14.5 official is available (I'm still on 14.4 on my production machine)?

macOS Public Beta 14.5 (2) dropped this evening. My only issue with 14.5 was the occasional crash of DP when I deleted a track and that happened only three times — although once was a MIDI track with Kontakt 7.9.0 on ot, the other two weren't. I've a Studio M2 Ultra. I''m hoping that these random crashes stop. Wee'll see…



Not seeing this at all.

Are you shutting down and rebooting before trying to load? Kontakt and Komplete have been requiring that since DP 8 or 9 for me.

Yes I've rebooted almost everytime I install or re-install something. I've tried both ways.
Surprisngly, the 14.5 Beta is working pretty good and I am able to get Kontakt 6.8 to work flawlessly (it seems), however Kontakt 7.90 still crashes the system imediately so I have disabled it until there is a fix. It must directly be an NI issue I suppose. I'm not going to 14.5 beta 2 as I see there are problems...

Rebooting doesn’t do it. You have to shut down first.
