MC29 Crash Will Not Reopen
blgentry:
Do you have a time machine backup of the Library directory? If you could restore that back to before MC29 crashed, that might help.
I would only restore the JRiver directory in
<your user directory>/Library/Application Support/J River/Media Center 29/
Try at your own risk. This is just a suggestion.

Why did I not think of this one? I run a backup every night (Carbon Copy Cloner). I will let you know what happens.

I was able to retrieve an older version of the MC29 folder that lives inside my user>Library>Application>J River folder from a backup. I replaced the existing folder with the backup version. When I launched MC29, I saw the same dialog window I attached to the initial post. This time, when I selected the default option of 'Reopen', MC29 launched and appeared normal.
I have nothing to base this on, but I wonder if the problem could be related to a 'Recently Imported' playlist. I have seen that playlist appear and disappear over recent months for reasons I do not understand. I tend to have it open in a tab all the time. Who knows if that means anything, but it might be something to look into.
I would like to know that this situation is understood at some point. It seems like there must be some issue that could be solved to prevent it from reoccurring.

I'm just a customer so I can't comment much on what might have caused the issue. I'm glad to hear you got it working again though. :)

I appreciate your help. You gave me the idea that worked to recover my library, and I am very grateful. Thank you!
