All my latest choons are coming up with this "Unknown Exception" error dialogue and will not open. I'm soooo gutted right now!

I installed Tiger, the latest operating system for Macs, and its latest updates. So of course I had to upgrade Reason 3.0 to 3.0.5 so it would be compatible. And now I'm dead in the water. My old songs that I wrote b4 3.0 will open fine, but not the 12 new ones I've written in the past 6 months. I looked through the Propellerheads FAQ, and it said the "Unknown Exception" error happens only on Windows(wtf?!).

I've searchin high & low for answers and still have yet to find a solution. Any help would be stellar.

i think a similar problem occurred on osx a few years ago with 2.0, it was to do with the refills i think, have you moved or renamed any?

Naw, I kept everything in its place.

The fix was simple and yet not so obvious. I had to select all the samples, be it wav or aif, do a "get info" and chage the default program to Reason, rather then the normal iTunes/quicktime. I guess they made the sample pathways just that much more strict. It works now, and I'm off and runnin!!


Oh yeah, and using Recycle on my powerbook, I found 295 corrupt samples in my library of over 2000. Gee I can't wait to do this on my external drive of over 100gb of samples, weeeeeeeeeek!

Oh well, at least its working.
