In MacOS 10.6 and earlier, Max 6 Preferences are stored here:

~/Library/Application Support/Cycling '74

Quit Max, throw away the entire Cycling '74 folder and try a restart.

If it's still not working, please let us know in support.

BTW - you may upgrade to Max 6.1 on your Max 6 auth if you wish.

That did the trick!!
Thanks a lot Andrew!


Was having a similar issue, clearing the max6 preferences from application support as Andrew Pask said works great.

I have a similar problem on a new Mac Pro running Mavericks. Whenever I plug a Logitech usb webcam and open Core Audio it crashes instantly. I tried to find the folder you mentioned to clear the preferences, but somehow I can't find any Cycling 74 folder in Application support (library). Any help suggestions would be welcome,

I have the same problem on a windows pc but can't seem to find the preferences folder.

Premiere creates its own "Aggregate Device" in Audio Midi Setup in Applications/Utilities.
