ammfonesca,

Thank you for the images, they help a lot. We just need a bit of accompanying information.

Some questions that spring to mind....

1. What are you doing with BIAB immediate before each of the above errors arise?

2. Are you running BIAB from an internal installation or a USB drive?

3. Does BIAB run properly at any stage?

...etc.



In the meantime...

As a test... start BIAB by right-clicking on the shortcut and selecting "Run as administrator"

Regards,
Noel

Hi Noel,
Ok. This happens when I ask to load a new UserTrack.
The old ones are opening ok ut when I ask to load a new one (first time) this happens.

My BIAB is on my internal drive SSD and all my Usertracks and also Drums and Real Tracks , external drive.

This is happening everytime. Sometimes the first time (new usertrack) opens ok but when I ask to load another one ( also new one) this happens again.

ammfonesca,

From your second image, did you save the log file, and did you send it to PG Music Support?

If you don't have email on that computer, you could copy the saved log file to a computer with email and send it to support.

They will be the quickest to work out what might be causing your problem. You might consider to send them the user file that caused your issue also.

I have exactly the same problem. Old UTs, created with 2016, are fine. New UTs, created with 2017, crash the program.
I reported this to Support and I also started another thread a couple of days ago. Dr Gannon suggested to email the zipped folder (the one with the UT) to support, and tell support to pass the problem to him. I also sent the complete error log. So I am very confident that PG's experts are working on a solution.
I have another problem though. I sent my email to PG support, and the messages keep bouncing back.
The bounced message says "Failed to process account credentials."
Not sure what that means. So, I guess Support hasn't have received my emails yet. I'll keep trying.

Jon, I'm wondering if this is perhaps because of the email content. What happens if you send them a simple 'test' email? Perhaps just with the subject 'test' and the content 'test', does that bounce also?

Jon,

I've never once had anything bounce from support@pgmusic.com

I recall that in his reply, Peter also suggested emailing a Dropbox link to the file. Did you try uploading the zipped folder to Dropbox and then forwarding the link to the uploaded file to PG Music?

Regards,
Noel

yes, in my original email (several days before Peter Gannon's suggestion), I sent a detailed email to Support with a description of the problem, a doc file with the error log content, and dropbox links to the zipped content of my UT. That was about a week ago, but I never had any reply. However I sent it from a Yahoo account, and I knew that Yahoo got hacked, and I've had problems in the past with Yahoo, so after seeing Peter Gannon post here, I re-sent the same message (with the dropbox links) from a Gmail account. That's when the emails started bouncing back (Gmail re-send the same message once a day when it bounces back, so it's been sent at least 2 or 3 times now). So, I really don't know if Support received ANY of my messages ... that would explain why I never received any aknowledgement.
I'll try again with Yahoo now :-)
By the way, PG's support and help is always GREAT, so I am sure it's just an unfortunate coincidence (and I'm sure these days they are super busy with the new version out).
Anyway, now that another user is reporting exactly the same problem, at least I know I'm not the only one, so maybe it's about a bug rather than something very specific to my setup.

If anybody else is experiencing the same problem, with new UTs, please let PG Support know, I'm sure that the more info they have the better they can tackle it.
If I have news I'll report here.

Update:
Peter Gannon just said in the other thread that he received the message and they're working on it.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
