Topic: Fireface UFX and ARC USB no longer recognized (old Mac)
I cloned my boot HD to an SSD drive using CCC and began booting from the SSD. Now, bizarrely, the Fireface UFX and ARC USB are no longer recognized, and the ARC USB no longer light up. TotalMix and RME show up in the dock and in the Applications Folder, but do not launch. I can see the Preferences Window in Totalmix, but everything in the Windows drop-down menus are ghosted.
What I have done so far:
- multiple reboots of the Mac Pro 1,1
- unplugging/plugging all cables numerous times
- booting the computer using old boot HD (which now, curiously, no longer recognizes RME as well when it did right before cloning using Carbon Copy Cloner)
- attempted to launch RME Fireface Settings app and TotalMix app from the Applications Folder. This results in absolutely nothing happening. The windows do not launch at all.
- Reinstalling the above apps.
- Trashing the above apps, reinstalling the apps, restarting the computer, etc.
I do not understand why this is happening because 1.) I made an exact mirror of the boot drive using Carbon Copy Cloner, and now, neither HD works, and 2.) when I initially installed Fireface UFX, the thing practically installed itself, and I hardly had to do anything except follow the window prompts, so I would think I would not have any issues now either. Very confusing.
I hope you can help me because I've been trying to fix this for hours and cannot think of anything else to do. This is my only means of recording, and without this, I can do nothing. Thank you very much.
