Topic: 8.2 not opening on first attempt.

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

Since build 3324 I'm experiencing that my first attempt to open the software that it does not respond and I have to force quit. It'll open on the second attempt. This happens whether there's peripherals connected or not. I've a Mac Book Pro Mid 2012 with El Capitan 10.11.6. I've downloaded a fresh version and also done a factory reset of my settings, but has not resolved the problem?

Does the same here using mbp yosemite 10.10.
 
Same here with mbp.
 
Related to controllers or external hard drives connected?
 
Same here doesn't matter if anything is connected. It doesn't affect anything once it opens it's business as usual.
 
same problem here it even gives me a message that vdj is taking long time to open browser
and some times it takes 5 mins to open
am running on win 7 hp i7 8gb ram
 
I have been experiencing the same thing as well.

MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2012) with El Captain. I have deleted and done a clean installation of Virtual dj but still have the same issue. Am considering going back to one of the earlier versions.
 
Having the same issue here. I have to force quit to start on first attempt. Any help on this please?
 
cold reboot your pc. everytime you do a mix. it just clears the memory of random crap.
 
Same issue on one of two MacBooks.

Works fine on: Macbook Pro Early 2015 500 SSID 2.9 GHz i5 8 GB 1867 MHz DDR3 OS X El Capitan Version 10.11.6 VDJ 8.2 b3420

Requires force quit on: MacBook Pro Mid 2012 750 GB 2.9 GHz i7 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 VDJ 8.2 b3420

Very frustrating when VDJ 8 does not open. Wheel sits and spins forever. Obvious force quit and it usually opens on 2nd time around. Opens very slowly when it does work. Ran 2 weddings with opening problem and DDJ SR worked fine with no issues thankfully. It never did this before and I cannot nail down what changed as too much changed including Yosemite, VDJ builds etc.

Followed a number of MAC application fixes but damn I need a degree to do some of that stuff.

Anyone else find a fix?

So I did a Cold Boot (Hold down start button until it shuts off) and then tested a full start 8 times or so and VDJ started first time each time.

Interesting.

 
Same problem here. MBP 15" 2015 OS Sierra. Menu bar only, nothing else start up. Have to force quit.
