    I was using 32lives fine on a High Sierra iMac with a few 32bit plug ins wrapped, and may have deleted a file, and suddenly the crack now (when loading a 32bit plug in within Ableton Live 10 64) says

    '' This trial version of 32 Lives has expired.''

    Now i have the crack still of 32lives v1.0.10 but the instructions on a Youtube video to install easily, the video is now 'private' !!!

    I have tried to reinstall and know it cann be a little fiddly, and I can't remember how to do it?

    Does anyone know how to re-install 32lives to get it working correctly again on a Mac?

    I have the install dmg, and the .pkg which has the crack etc so have all the parts, but dont have the instructions or order to install this?

    Any help / youtube video or instructions would be great, thank you.

    ( Or just do this with the crack you have )

    STEP 01: Run Pre-install
    STEP 02: Run Keygen and copy generataded license file (License.bin) from Desktop to /Library/Application Support/32 Lives (Use alias/shortcut inside this folder)
    STEP 03: Run 32 Lives installer and restart your computer
    STEP 04: Open 32 Lives app and resurrect plugins

    Important: After resurrecting any plugin, restart again your computer.

    Wow this help is amazing - thank you!

    I have done it before, but as mentioned the brilliantly in-depth youtube video is now been removed!
    And its only for a 3 or 4 plug ins, that I use 32lives for, and I'm about to upgrade to a whole new Mac with Catalina which only uses 64-bit plugs AND my old ones will die, as even 32lives doesn't work in Catalina anymore!!

    So I will see if Adam has a better simpler version, that installs.. and I will also try my 32lives v1.0.10 again with these instructions :)

    Thank you all!!

    A big thank you to Adam , who did send me the same version as i had, but with much better instructions and after a few installs and restarts, in order to install - it all worked perfectly!

    Thank you!!

    Someone made this script to completely remove 32lives and license file.

    I remember that re-installation of the latest version on az was no hassle at all.

    You mean 32Dies. Things live (as in product name) and things die.

    I'm facing here the same problem ('' This trial version of 32 Lives has expired.'')
    1.0.6 version of 32 Lives (that I've been using for years).

    Computer change, I reinstall everything back with a Time Machine backup. Mojave OS.

    Here's what I did:

    - I uninstalled 32 Lives with AppCleaner.
    - I restarted my computer.
    - I installed 32 Lives and did everything properly relating to the license (I've done that several times in the past)
    - I restarted my computer.
    - I opened 32 Lives and resurrected all the concerned plugins.
    - I restarted my computer.
    - I opened Logic Pro X plug-in manager and "Reset & Rescan Selection" on the problematic plug-ins.
    - I still get '' This trial version of 32 Lives has expired.''

    Thank you for your help!

    If I remember well, the problem with 32 lives is that in some version, after some time, it deactivates and goes back to the trial version.
    The problem is that when the program goes back to the demo mode, creates an invisible file that would not allow you to go back to the cracked version unless you manually delete it from your computer. How to go about that? Download a program called desktop utility which will allow you to see invisible files. Find the invisible folder with the 32 Lives files and delete it. Hide the invisible files and restart the installation process again. This is the way that had worked for me in the past. Hope it was useful for u guys.

    Cmd/Shift/. (That's a full-stop/period mark as the third keystroke.)
    32 Lives by the skin of it's teeth, until 32 Dies.

    I am encountering an issue where my DAWs (Live 10, Live 11, Cubase 10 and Cubase 10.5) cannot open any resurrected plugins anymore.

    My license is still valid, it worked half a year before and I don't know what could have changed the situation because I didn't do any OSX updates. I was and still am on 10.14.6 all the time.

    Unwrapping and resurrecting the plugins didn't help.

    When I insert the plugins in Ableton (they show up after being resurrected), nothing happens.

    When I try it in Cubase, I am using metaplugin as a host to load component files. When loading the wrapped x64 plugin, I get the message "This plugin could not be loaded. Maybe a 32/64 bit issue?"

    This makes me think that the wrapping/resurrecting just didn't work properly. I have no idea what caused this behaviour as everything was working fine a year ago. 32lives is on version v1.0.10.

    If you guys got any idea how to solve this issue that would be great (I don't mind buying the software when necessary, but for now I fear that the issues might be system related).

    I need to reopen an old Cubase project where I used a complex metaplugin patch and right now, metaplugin prevents me from loading that patch unless it finds the "missing" x64 component file. :(

    Update: I unwrapped, reinstalled, rebooted the computer and resurrected the plugins. Now they aren't showing up anymore in Ableton.

    What could be going on here?

    Another Update: I just tried the demo of 32 Lives version 2. It's working now - still I'd be glad if somebody had an idea where the problem with v1.0.10 lies. I think 100 bucks for a software which isn't supported anymore is a bit too much.

    Hey everyone, does anyone still have the download file for 1.0.6 for mac? I am trying to revive some old sessions that I need it for and I cannot find it for the life of me anywhere! I will happily share something in return if you want!
