hi
i have been having some trouble with my digi001/protools Le system and was wondering if anybody could help...was working on my g4 and the finder application froze and i had to manually shut down the computer...the next time started up the computer all i got was a blinking question mark...looked in the manual and found that i had to boot from the system disk, which i did but protools was gone...i bought norton utilities and it found protools again but it can`t find DAE...fast find can find the DAE folder but when i try to open it it says it can`t find something called "MultiShellCode" - anyone know anything about that? i`m a little bit disappointed with the system cos i thought that even if the computer did crash i wouldn`t lose access to protools itself... I`d really like to avoid this in the future - does anyone have any advice for me? thanks for any help... ted |

ok
after the computer didn`t restart correctly and the blinking question mark appeared I reinstalled the OS. that I have learned is apparently not a "crash", just the system not being able to recognize the HD for some reason. Maybe there is another way of recovering your setup without this kind of drastic overhaul but I`m not sure of what that is - as I`m a beginner! So the manual recommended using the system disc to boot from and when I did that most of my stuff came back but I looked everywhere for protools and couldn`t find it...then i ran norton disk doctor and it "found " lots of stuff that I thought I had "lost" - mp3 folders,limewire,and a protools icon appeared! so i clicked on that and it just said that DAE could not be found...I managed to find the DAE folder but then that wouldn`t open...all this stuff was still on the main HD....is that enough info? ted |
