Unisyn 2.11 and G4 1,25DP MDD

After having moved from G4 1,4Ghz to G4 1,25DP MDD I also cloned the old HD to another newer HD, re-authorized Unisiyn but.... Everytime I attempt to load Unisyn 2.11 it immediately closes.

On my G4 1,25DP runs Mac OSX 10.4.11

What gives... is it perhaps a double processor issue?

TIA

Michele,
I'm staring at your post wracking my brain for an answer. This exact thing was happening to me a few years ago on my own MDD, but for the life of me I can't remember how I fixed it. I just wanted to bump this thread and see if anyone has any more ideas.

Shouldn't be a dual processor issue (works fine here on a Sonnet set-up). Might be an Audio/MIDI setup issue (something messing up when you cloned and moved your system). You've re-authorized, so that's not it. Have you tried reinstalling Unisyn completely from your discs? That might be what I did, frankly. Wouldn't take long at all, and your docs shouldn't be affected.

Let us know what happens!
Yours,
n

Yeah, I would try a fresh install, too. And trash the Unisyn preferences. Unisyn can get really squirrelly with a corrupt .plist.

A fresh install (Custom – choose only the Unisyn app) and reauth usually cures this. But sometimes the authorisation file gets corrupted and has to be manually removed before a new one will "take."

Kind regards.

I'm simply moved by your kindness and helpfulness :shock:

Actually I have some problems with ATA and Serial ATA Hard Discs that - apparently - create some mismatch among them. When I reboot from SATA drives I can see ATA Drives, but I can't boot from them...
In fact I tried to creae a monster G4 with 2 optical drives and 4 Hard Discs, but perhaps something's gone wrong :(
All in all the configuration is quite complex: 4 discs, several partitions, OS9.2, OSX 10.4.11 and 10.5.xx, all living under the same roof..
It's probably a matter of jumpers... I'm an architect, not a computer technician.
anyway, I'ìll trash Unisyn prefs.. and crossing fingers..

Best regards form Italy-
Michele
