How to create a Status Report

  • Live Versions: All
  • Operating System: All

A Status Report is a zip file containing information about your setup and a log of what Live has done since it was last opened. This file will help Ableton Support to investigate technical issues on your system.

To create a Status Report Pack:

Step 1. Click "Get Support..." in Live's Help menu which opens a screen called "Getting Technical Help"Screen_Shot_2017-10-17_at_11.31.57.png

Step 2. Click the link of the Status Report in order to open its enclosing folder in Finder/Explorer.
