I took a look at the latest one and it had the following details about the crash. Using Terminal accessible in Recovery Mode I found several crash logs located in /Volumes/Macintosh HD/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/. I reinstalled the operating system over the Internet. I could boot into Recovery Mode ( Cmd+R+Pwr) and used this to access Disk Utility to run First Aid (no errors were found), and then used Terminal to run resetpassword which was then used to reset permissions on my user folder. ![]() This seemed to be meaningful, but was ultimately a wild goose chase. ![]() I was unable to boot into Single User Mode ( Cmd+S+Pwr), but it and Verbose Mode ( Cmd+V+Pwr) did show that the boot process was hanging and the last message it displayed was: I reset the SMC ( Shft+Ctrl+Opt+Pwr while off, then Pwr), I reset the PRAM ( Cmd+Opt+P+R+Pwr while booting, then hold until the chime sounds again), I tried to boot into Safe Mode ( Shft+Pwr). Thus when I was notified that it was available, I dutifully upgraded… and then my MacBook Pro Retina wouldn’t reboot. After Update, OS X Won’t RebootĪfter upgrading to OS X El Capitan (10.11) when it was released, I had been generally pleased with the new version but there were a few quirks – like random beach ball pauses – that made me think the 10.11.1 update would address some of them. It seems to have left behind a kext named .kext and once I deleted it, things work again. Before I knew this I installed Malwarebytes to check for spyware/adware causing the CPU usage, then uninstalled it after installing the OS X beta. I am using the Beta version because 10.13.2 had very high CPU usage by the WindowServer process that was fixed in 10.13.3. Update – I updated to 10.13.3 High Sierra Beta 5 and once again was unable to boot. Removed everything older than 2016 after running ls -lat. This time I had to remove kexts from /System/Library/Extensions. Update – I updated to 10.12.6 and once again was unable to boot. Update – This has been an issue for myself and others running OS X Sierra as well. Update – It happened again when I updated to 10.11.4! Even fewer clues this time, additional details and an updated script to remove non-default kext files at the very bottom. Otherwise feel free to read the saga below! For the latest information regarding DJ software news keep a watch on the blog.If your OS X El Capitan/Sierra/High Sierra update won’t reboot you can skip to the fix or check here for the (mostly) automated fix script. OS X El Capitan was released on September 30th and we don’t recommend upgrading until Native Instruments and Apple addresses these issues. The silver lining is that if a DJ did upgrade to El Capitan there are beta drivers readily available on NI’s website to fix the issue, with a more permanent solution to come shortly in the future. This obviously renders a DJ relying on a legacy controller powerlessm so upgrading to El Capitan is heavily unadvised if a DJ uses the following equipment: DJs using MK 1 versions of select NI devices will find that when trying to use the hardware their Mac will crash resulting in unsaved and corrupted work. ![]() The second major bug is a kernal panic when using legacy NI devices. ![]() We will bring more news as that information comes available, but in the time being producers should avoid upgrading their system. This is do to with sort of signage error, but the good news is that Native Instruments is talking to Apple to get the issue resolved. Any effects or instruments used in Logic Pro X on an El Capitan Mac will not be usable. There are two alarming issues pointed out by Native Instruments with the first being an unsuccessful validation of AU (audio units) plug-ins in Logic Pro X. With any big upgrade there are bound to be a few hiccups, but they are rarely caught this quickly.įor starters, the pieces of software that are negatively affected by El Capitan include Komplete, Traktor, and Maschine. OS X DJs and producers beware! Native Instruments has announced that by upgrading to OS X 10.11, (aka El Capitan), users will lose primary functionality of multiple DJ controllers, software plug-ins, and access to audio outputs on legacy hardware.
