This is the first time I've seen this one but I've been on a mac sndx for a couple years at one place and never had this happen. Wonder if a memory leak is contributing to the problem. Can we still say memory leak or is there a newer term that's more Apple Cool like, "Memory preoccupied with hipper stuff than Avid because it's not cloud based."?

For 3 days it occasionally hangs on start up on "Managing Macros" or something macros and sometimes it just vaporizes on startup with a mainthread buss error. Usually just a force quit and restart works but this morning after someone ran "AppleJack and zapped the Pram I hung at the macros error 4 times in a row even after restarts and then reinstalled the ver. 4.0.5 software and it booted right up. I then installed the utility programs and got the macro hang on a restart. I uninstalled SNDX a second time and reinstalled and it booted after a power cycle of the entire system. This was a nitris dx system before and the owner has sent in the paper work to register the system's new symphony dongle through a transfer of ownership form or whatever it's called. Currently the system is not registered because after 2 weeks after sending the paper work

The Apple Jack and zapping Pram was just done as a routine thing not because of this problem. Curious what others think. Once I've got the system booted everything works fine. Could there be an issue with my order of install? I seem to recall something about installing the Symphony software before or after the utilities on older versions. On 5.x and up I just check the additional utilities and they all install at once on mcsoft. Could the fact that the last thing I did was install SNDX 4.0.5 after I installed the other utilities? But for 3 days I had the problem intermitently and the utilities hadn't even been installed then.
