I first started using A:M in 1994, so I'm not new to the software. However, I havent' used it in a few years (since about 2004). I bought v17 about a month ago, and it worked fine through a project for about 3 weeks. Then, all of the sudden, I tried launching it and it crapped out. Yes. When I say the application is no longer active... after the splash screen is up for a while, it disappears. Then, if I look down at my dock, the A:M icon is there but no little blue dot under it, meaning it is not running.
So, First I tried trashing MasterPrefs.ini (actually, I just drag it to the desktop, because that is where all of my customizations are stored. - That didn't work.
I downloaded and reinstalled the software - Over the previous version - That didn't work.
I deleted the entire A:M v17 folder and did a completely fresh install, w/ Activation code - That didn't work.
No one at Hash has provided any support. Is there any way to get any support from those guys? It used to be great in the 90s - but that was a long time ago.
Thanks,
Tommy
