MachFive and Cubase SE (Mac)

[dgordon]

I use a PowerBook 15" OS X 10.3.9. I have installed MachFive and am trying to use it with Cubase SE. When Cubase is booted the M5 "authorize" window appears, I install the iLok, click Finish, and Cubase crashes. I have loaded the updates, registered the iLok, all I know to do. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Have you repaired permissions and other OSX maintenance?

I use M5 in SX with no problems.....

Yes, I repaired permissions, but Cubase still crashes.

Try to trash Cubase's prefs.

You should try http://www.cubase.net.

Trashed Cubase SE prefs, crash.

I'll go to the web site as you suggested; Steinberg's site has been no help so far.

Yeah, I think there is a problem with MachFive and Cubase, from reading many posts. I am running Cubase LE on Mac. iLok dongle checks out OK, and MachFive runs fine under DP and Live 6. However, when launching Cubase LE, program stops launching when the "initializing MachFive" text appears as VST plug-ins are installing. Dang!!! If I take the dongle and skip MachFive, it launches. Double dang!!!
