List of possible error and warning messages (incomplete)
General errors and solutions
EboSuite application -or- [device name] is not in the correct location in the user library.
- The EboSuite plug-ins need to be in the EboSuite sub-folder of the current User Library. This folder also contains the hidden EboSuite app. If you see this error you probably did on of the following things: (a.) used Collect All and Save with the ‘User Library’-option enabled, (b.) changed your User Library location, (c.) changed the file location/folder names in a different way. If the reason is (a.) you can right click on the top bar of a plug-in (next to the title) and select ‘manage device file’ and point to the correct versions in the ‘user library’ (there is an Ableton bug here that sometimes the eSampler can forget the sample it was pointing to). If the reason was (b.) or (c.) you can manually correct the location of the EboSuite files or simply run the installer again.
Version mismatch, please reinstall.
- This happens when there are EboSuite plug-ins with a different version than the EboSuite app. It is best to run the installation again with the latest version of the installer.
Click to restart EboSuite App.
- When you accidentally close the EboSuite application (or when it has stopped for some reason) you can click here to start it again.
