[solved] Renoise 3.0.1 Hangs on OSX Yosemite Startup

It hangs on “Loading the preferences…”

I’ve removed all VST and UA plugins from the plugins folders. I’ve removed the Renoise library folder in ~/Library/Application Support/

The only thing in the Console log of note is:

11/11/14 6:51:49.597 AM RenoisePluginServer[55771]: WARNING: The Gestalt selector gestaltSystemVersion is returning 10.9.0 instead of 10.10.0. Use NSProcessInfo’s operatingSystemVersion property to get correct system version number.

Call location:

This is the last item before it hangs:

11/11/14 6:51:49.598 AM RenoisePluginServer[55771]: 6 RenoisePluginServer 0x000000010015b82e RenoisePluginServer + 1423406

So is there some other preference location I need to delete? Any ideas??

Thanks for your help.

Please have a look and post your Renoise log too. You can find it at: ~/Library/Logs/Renoise.log
It probably can give us a few more hints of what’s going on here.

Here’s the log. Nothin’ jumps out at me:

Error Message: A fatal error or crash occurred (unhandled exception in thread: GUI).

Error Message: This either happened because of a bug in Renoise, or because of a bug in one of its loaded components (plugins). Please contact bug@renoise.com and report this problem, so that it can be fixed.

Error Message: Note: It’s very important that we know exactly what has happened (what you were doing before this message popped up), or the problem cannot be replicated/analyzed. Please include a description of what you were doing and which components were being used…

Seen this in some other crashlog on Yosemite before. Problem there was a broken ReWire engine from Numerology. Probably some Yosemite compatibility problem.

Please navigate to: Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Propellerhead Software/ReWire/
Is there a Numerology bundle? Does deleting it (please make a copy before doing so) fix the problem?

That was it! Thanks so much for the help. A+ for support.
