MC 21 crashing
« on: March 30, 2016, 09:28:13 am »

I am new to Macs and MC21. Macbook Pro with everything and running el capitan with all the latest updates. I have been a longtime Winamp user and have never had problems using Airplay via Winamp on a PC. I thought when I switched to Mac there would be no problem but MC21 crashes constantly. I cant even play a whole record without it crashing at least twice. Mostly seems to relate to loosing connectivity with airplay. Searching the forums for Airplay issues on the forums turns up very little. I would attach a zip log but the “choose file” link below won’t even let me do that.

At any rate, for all the raving about how great this program is and the amount I paid for it, I am sure disappointed. I called apple support and of course they immeadiatly pointed to “3rd party software” so its not thier problem, its mine. So I though if I installed it on my old PC laptop instead and used the HDMI to my AV system (instead of using airplay which my AV is compatible with) … but thats more money and with the performance record I am having thats not going to happen. I would like to be a happy camper here, what did I do wrong?

Make sure you're using 21.0.64, which is at the top of this forum section.

Awesome, I am using 21.0.50 currently. I am not sure what you mean by “at the top of this forum section” but I see no links within this embedded browser pointing to any kind of an update and the download page only lists 21.0.50 and when I click the check for updates, it says i am up to date. So now I guess I am a bit confused here.

EDIT: Found it.

well I am 1 minute and 32 seconds into the first song and so far so good. but since I have your ear a couple quick questions.
1) why is it that I always have to go to the sound properties for Mac (in their equivalent of Control Panel) and select Airplay? hopefully this patch solves that as well??
2) if I want to migrate MC21 to my old PC is there a way to transfer this Mac license to PC or do I have to buy another license?

EDIT: into the third song… no crashing so far

For number 2, if you want to use a license on both a Mac and Windows at the same time, it requires the Master license upgrade.
