Be funny if it turned out to be Apples "upgrades and improvements" that were the sole cause of your problems.

Me? I haven't 100% trusted any OS since I was forced to give up OS9/OSK back in the eighties!
I know it's tempting to turn this into a fanboy OS like/dislike thread, just don't do it. I can talk about as many BSOD's (Win) as spinning beachballs (Mac). The issue I WAS having (now completely and inexplicably gone) is an example of how complicated this whole thing is, independent of the OS. Fundamentally I like Mac OS better, because it better matches my temperament and sensibilities in terms of owning and running a computer, but coding software that runs real time media with a Mac is probably more difficult due to constraints put on the coders...add to that the difficulty of porting an app that was constructed originally using a Windows API (which Reaper probably was) and you have a herculean task ahead of you. I'm so glad my situation righted itself, because thought of moving forward without Reaper being my central workbench was terrifying. As you were everybody...get back to your respective OS's and make some good music...the world needs it!
