Toast 17 non-functional on download

Recommended Posts

I have been a Mac user since 1984, and a Toast user since Toast 5. I bought the latest and greatest, and it won't open. I have had my iMac checked, deleted and re-installed T17. And now I have contacted Support and will be receiving an email at some point... miss the days of talking to someone helpful right away.  Has anyone else had this problem  (2015 iMac, High Sierra 10.13.)?  Here is the header for the lengthy error readout I get on trying to open Toast 17:

Can attach the whole thing if anyone knows or cares... very exasperating...

A clean install does not always work. I've never actually gotten T17 to launch. Ever. On a clean Mac. I've uninstalled per support email instructions. I'm not a newbie to Mac OS. There are some real issues with this software. Good luck. If I could get a refund, I would. I don't recommend anything Toast at this point.

I'd be interested in the whole process you did to do a "Full Uninstall Instructions".  I've done a process of uninstalling everything roxio related from some pretty specific guidance I googled.  Probably half of the items that it said to remove I couldn't find on my system.  I still can't get Toast 17 to open, with a similar crash error to what you posted.

If you can post those instructions I would be eternally grateful.

I'm going to see if it will install on my 2017 MacBook Pro which I don't think I've ever had any version of Toast installed on, and see it works on that system which is the same OS as my MacPro tower.

I came on here looking for assistance with this problem but maybe I can offer something.  Initially I could not even install 17.  After contacting "Service" multiple times, I was advised to delete all Toast 17 files and re-install.  4(!) clean re-installs later with progressively more detailed instructions each time they finally suggested setting up a new admin account and installing there.  That actually worked (shock!) but they can't tell me why it won't install on my usual admin account.  "Incompatibility with some of your files".  But they can't or won't tell me how to work out what files are causing the problems.

Currently, my workaround is that I have to log out of my own system and log in to the new admin account in order to use Toast.  Which is more than a little irritating...

I cannot tell you how unimpressed I am with Corel's Support staff.  As noted elsewhere in these fora, I don't think they actually read the help requests very closely at all, but just reply with 'boilerplate' responses.

So, I have a workaround but if anyone can suggest a solution I would be grateful.

Cheers, Ian
