How to remove 'message sent to Apple' and reopen GarageBand on Mac?

How do I get the "message sent to Apple" off my screen and my GarageBand to reopen after a problem. Tried turning off the Mac and restarting. That didn't work.

Try restarting your Mac in Safe Mode. If the glitch clears then restart back into normal mode.
