How To Fix Garageband 10.10.3 Failing To Download And Install Loops On Yosemite 10.10.1

For $4.99, I can get the Garageband 10.0.3 with more features and better loops to create music on Yosemite 10.10.1, but I couldn’t finish installing the software, it took forever to download and break in the middle for some reasons even though I have high speed internet. After Googling for a long time, I’d read a post that someone had successfully installed the Garageband with the same problem. I can’t seem to find the post to give credit to the person.  Anyhow, here is how he/she did it.

1. Remove all Garageband.plist in ~/Library/Preferences/

library_preferences

2. Remove the ~/Library/Caches/Garageband folder.

Caches

3. Remove the ~/Library/Containers/Garageband10 folder.

After doing all these, the Garageband 10.0.3 works right away with all the loops already installed. BTW, the Garageband 6.0.5 is still working in a separate folder.

  • Hi, I have the same problem with GarageBand, but by following the instructions do not find in the library com.apple garageband files or file in the cache folder, what can be wrong?

  • Thanks! This has been bothering me for months!
