One of things that I’ve witnessed so many times is Pro Tools users who upgrade to the latest operating system, only to find out that the upgrade is not compatible with Pro Tools. Then, they have to reinstall their previous operating system, often taking many hours to do so. Yes, the latest features of the most recent operating system may be attractive, but have patience young padawans!
We’ve all been looking forward to Pro Tools becoming compatible with Leopard (Apple’s OS 10.5), and Digidesign has released the first step… Pro Tools HD (not LE, M-powered, or Academic) is compatible with Leopard. But not just any Leopard. You can only use Pro Tools 7.4.1 with OS 10.5.1. Click here for more details on Digidesign’s site.
Please, please, please… save yourself some hassles. Turn off the automatic software update feature on your Mac. And, wait to upgrade your OS until its officially supported by Digidesign. You’ll avoid a lot of headaches and be much more productive.
Cheers!
