I think contacting the manufacturer would be a good idea here.

What is your Operating System?

If it is Windows 7 or Vista, try running Ableton in Administrator Mode to see if that helps.

It is true Ableton complicated.

I've never been able to record with my Mustang. I gave up and went back to Audacity.

I have win xp pro and i know that the o.s. is not the problem but i did have this same problem before on my other computer wich had win xp home edition but again it was not the o.s. at fault,i had(and still do have)ableton live 8 lite line 6 edition and i did contact ableton support at the time but i forgot the solution they gave me for this problem,i contacted ableton support again yesterday and i'am still waiting for a reply.i have audacity and i like it for editing and it is much easier to use than ableton but if you want a very easy to use software recording program to use with your mustang or for other recording projects check out this link for kristal audio engine,it is a free(not a trial version) that has a good user interface with mixer and it has many vst effects plug ins and you could add more from vst planet if you want,kristal is one of the best free software recording programs that i have seen. http://www.kreatives.org/kristal/

Try a different browser?

I use Firefox and had no problem authorizing Ableton.

If you do an internet search you can find people's recordings using the Abelton, so it must work somehow.

What happens if you paste that address in Internet Explorer and try opening the site? It sounds like the file types/associations in Firefox are messed up.

I'm glad you got it authorized and running. You may want to try resetting your browser to default settings. It sounds like some things are really messed up in there.
