I am desprately trying to get Padshop to load but it just won’t happen. I am on OSX and I have both the Padshop license and the Pro upgrade license on my soft elicenser. At first I thought the problem might have to do with an expired trial license that still resides on my eLicenser. So I used the helper tool and deleted the trial license and reactivated Padshop Pro. Still nothing. Some Steinberg support page also seemed to suggest that the “VST Sound” folder in the Library should be deleted after a trial expired. I did that with no success. I have the latest version of Padshop installed and the latest soft eLicenser. The soft eLicenser and MySteinberg account are all synced up. Everything is registered, activated and good to go. Just the damn program won’t open in any AU or VST host. All the AU hosts find the plugin but when I try to open it I get an error message. I’ve been messing around with this all afternoon…
I got the license transferred from someone and the whole transfer process took days already and has been a complete nightmare.
Thanks for any advice.
