Pro Tools 10 HD Native - what OS for firmware upgrade?
I read about problems with upgrading HD Native firmware. I was going to install Pro Tools 10 HD on Mac OSX Lion. Should I install 10.6.7 first to upgrade the firmware?

Re: Pro Tools 10 HD Native - what OS for firmware upgrade?
In order to update the firmware of HD Native card to v1.03 on Mac OS X, the version of Mac OS X must be 10.6.7 or earlier, and it requires Pro Tools HD 10 or 9.0.5.
However, Pro Tools HD 10 runs on Mac OS X 10.6.7 or later, so 10.6.7 is the only choice to update the firmware of HD Native card to v1.03 with Pro Tools HD 10. If using Pro Tools HD 9.0.5, it runs on any version of 10.6.x and 10.7.x, so you can update the firmware to v1.03 with Pro Tools HD 9.0.5 on Mac OS X 10.6.7 or earlier. I did it last weekend, prepared the disk partition for Mac OS X 10.6, installed Mac OS X 10.6 to new partition, upgraded it to 10.6.5 (this might not be necessary), installed Pro Tools HD 9.0.2, and upgraded it to 9.0.5 just for the firmware update to v1.03. Now, Pro Tools HD 10 is running on Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2 very well. |

I'm on 10.6.8 at the moment. If I run 10.6.7 Combo Update will it downgrade my system?

If someone runs Lion and they don't have access to 10.6 - what can they do?

I've just built a Westmere 12 core with 10.7.2 and as long as the HD Native card is in slot 4, firmware seems to upgrade as per normal. Testing now, but looks as though it's hunky dory. Slot 2 no workies...

i've just encountered the same issue. Just installed PT 10. When i launch PT it tries to update the firmware on the Native card and then freezes. I'm on 10.6.8. I've tried to go back down to 10.6.7. but cant seem to do it. I've created a partition like suggested but when i run the 10.6.7 combo update it doesn't let me select any of the drives. I tried booting of the 10.6 DVD and it just said that it couldnt install this software on this computer.
Any suggestions |
