Hello, guys
I was trying to install latest Waves V13, but after I install what I need and I apply the patch, when I run the AU Reg it doesn't find any of the V13 components, only 8 v12 ones.

Do you guys know what could be the issue here?

P.S. previous versions with V12 always worked perfectly. Same exactly workflow.

 

Yeah well, the problem isn't new. That's how it goes if you try to pack a shitty old patch from an older version with a new release…

 

And since it wasn't working I tried re-installing my V12 after cleaning up all the V13 installation and now the Waves Center tells me that's a problem with the installation and stops. And it NEVER happened before as I am using the same identical installer I used moths ago!

 

Never happened.
Does anyone have any idea?

 

I no longer use Waves, but I use OSX Validate All AUs.app after installing plugins and have not had this problem with anything again. (Mojave). Your screenshot is not what I mean, though. just components that do not validate.

 

Can anyone help me understand why my previous Waves V12 installer, which has always worked, now all of a sudden gives me that error every time I try to install plugins from an offline installer?

 

You must do a complete un-install of every waves related item in your Mac.
That means looking in every part of your Mac Local and User.
Even in Shared. I don't know what your level of expertise is. I have done it many times
and I find it's the only way that works. Waves is all over you Mac.
Start digging and good luck.

 

Did you cleanly remove V12 and any residual files before installing?

yup, you need to clean everything to make that installer work. after installation restart your mac and then run au reg utility, i also had same issue.

 

I sent you a message in the conversation, D-Music!

 

tried that now, did not work :/

 

Hello,
At the final stage - run au reg utility - AU Reg Tool asks to locate Waves Plugin 13.06 folder.
Where is that?
In the Waves folder in Applications?
When I checked the AU components folder nothing was highlighted to be able to proceed.
When in the Applications/Waves folder, it could open some files, but then zero were verified.
In Logic, there was no Waves option. I did not try standalone.
If I tried AU REG Tool again, there was no option to search. AU Reg Tool just verifies it located files in the Applications/waves folder (where nothing was verified).
So, I ended up using recovery / Time Machine/ saved before I installed waves and tried again. I got the same result.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.

 

Hi, I also have that problem. Did you find a solution? I ve tried many times but AU Reg Tool found 0 plugin. I can see the plugins in Applications/Waves folder. But AU Reg tool search:
"Public/Waves Complete v14 28.09.22 (MacOS)/1 - Installer/Waves/Waves/Data/V14/Instrument Data/Waves Audio Factory Packy Pack"
There is no option to change the location in AU Reg search
Thanks
