Core Audio Crashes Max Instantly
Hi.
Max was working perfectly. A few days ago I installed Adobe Premiere, and probably it affected somehow my sound setting, although I have checked everything. Still, Max crashes all the time! Here is the log error

Try resetting your preferences.
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.
Cheers
Andrew
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,
thanks!
I got the same issue with Mavericks.
And the suggested folder indeed doesn't exist.
How do I solve this, I AM STUCK !!!!
Under Mavericks, the suggested folder is in /Users/HEPI/Library/Application Support/Cycling '74
where HEPI is your user name.
You may need to press the option/alt key and use the Finder's Go menu to jump into your Library
folder.
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.
Try deleting it.
