problems in starting motion

Hi

i recently performed the usual software update on my Mac pro (operating system Mac OS 10.4) and i am now having problems starting the motion application. when i launch it from the dock the usual welcoming message appears with the motion logo. however this time idoesnt say motion 3 but motion upgrade. after this message motion freezes and the applicatrion doesnt launch. please can any one help.

cheers

Hi Abdul,

The message "Motion Upgrade" is normal, don't worry. To make Motion relaunch correctly, the first thing you can do it to deleten the Motion preferences. This is how you do this:

Go to your Home/Library/Preferences folder
Look for the com.apple.Motion.plist file
Drag the file to your Trash
Launch Motion.

As I said, this is the first thing you can do. If this does not work we can give you other options to try.

Best wishes,

Ronny

Thank you

Hi Ronny,
