  Assertion failed: false can’t see bin

  Posted by Ken Blum on September 12, 2009 at 10:24 pm

  Hi,

  I’m running MC 3.1.3 on MAC OS 10.5.8. Quicktime 7.6.2. I am having a lot of problems.

  First off, I can’t launch MC without getting an Assertion:Error message. I can get
  by that by clicking “debug.” Anytime I go to the desktop or another application
  and come back to the Avid I get the same Assertion:error message. I used
  to be able to get past it by clicking “debug.” Once I clicked debug I could work.

  I tried everything I could to fix this error – reinstalled the software multiple times. Deleted
  MC state. Delete MSM files on my OMF files and AvidMedia files. Nothing worked. I figured
  I would continue working by just clicking “debug.”

  Now, when I’m in my project and make a new bin I can see the bin in the project
  window but I can’t see the physical bin. It indicates it’s open but there is no bin!

  I’ve been on the Avid for many, many years and have never seen such issues.

  Anyone with any advice – I would greatly appreciate it.

  Thanks so much.

  Ken

  Looks like youmay have upgraded your OS and QT too far…

  Try upgrading MC or rolling back your OS / QT…
