I've been running Pro Tools 7 on my old 15" Powerbook G4, and everything worked fine. I recently switched to the new Mac Pro quad 3.0 GHz 2 GB ram, Mac OS 10.4.8- and tried to install PT 7. The installation went fine (twice), but when I try to run PT the screen greys out and says I have to resart my comp. Is this a compatibility issue with the mac pro?
Or maybe something to do with my syncing with my powerbook when I set up the mac pro? |

I checked as I could around here (in the French forums), it seems there's issues on the way people do the update to 10.4.9. A "combo" update (the combo updater is available at Apple download) should make things go back to normal. Now I can't be definite on the PT version, but 7.1 and up are ok seemingly. there's some blur on the edges here.
Can someone confirm? Before making the update, check your drive and permissions with the Apple disk utility, apply the combo, recheck the permissions. It smooths out any issue in this direction. -------------------- Our Classifeds • Nos petites annonces • Terms Of Service / Conditions d'Utilisation • Forum Rules / Règles des Forums • MacMusic.Org & SETI@Home

Hey,
I reinstalled the Mac. I updated the Mac OS X 10.4.8 with the 10.4.9 combo update. I installed the ProTools LE 7.0 and updated it to 7.1 Still not working!! I checked as I could around here (in the French forums), it seems there's issues on the way people do the update to 10.4.9. A "combo" update (the combo updater is available at Apple download) should make things go back to normal.
