GarageBand will not open

GarageBand will not open. I have uninstalled and reinstalled. I am confident that everything is up to date. I am currently running OS Sequoia on my MacBook Pro. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

GarageBand Stuck on Wrong Menu The image below is the opening screen I get when I launch GarageBand on my new MacBook Silicon M2. It should be the GarageBand main menu. I deleted the app, reloaded it from the App Store and still get this image that will not allow me into GarageBand. Am I missing a command? I've used GarageBand for many years and never had this problem till now. Next stop will be Apple Support unless someone here has a suggestion of how to correct this.

MacOS Ventura Garageband I have updated my Mac yesterday to OS Ventura. And after reading and looking to its features, It seems that I can't open my garageband. It says "updating information about audio unit plugins", and looking through force quit it says that garageband is not responding. They must look into this, especially for musician & producers like us. Is there anyway to fix this? Thanks in advance!
