Spex in sig

Yes, I should know all that but have been away for a very long time.

thanx many !

if i am correct .. you can only have multiple installs of Pro Tools on a MAC ..

You are correct John. You can only co install on the [emoji335]

Yep only co-Install that is possible is Win7 and only with PT10 as the secondary Install

On Windows 7, Pro Tools 10.3.10 can be co-installed on the same system with Pro Tools 12.x. (Windows 7 Only)
If you have an earlier version of Pro Tools installed, it is recommended that you perform a clean uninstall before installing Pro Tools 10.3.10 (or higher) and Pro Tools 12.0 (or higher). Installing Pro Tools 12.x will overwrite Pro Tools 11.x if it is already installed.
Uninstalling Pro Tools does not uninstall all components that are installed

From the readme

I have a feeling you can co- install PT10, and PT12 on Windows 10, provided you install PT10 first.

Thanx All :cool:
Bummer though, as my 12.4 version is more than I would ever need from PT Vanilla. But..did have a couple of video related glitches. And...I have this 12.8 sitting there under my current subscription.

Would I have to completely uninstall everything Avid before attempting to get 12.8 on my system ? ?
I also find that super annoying..:confused:
I have 3 different versions of Nuendo running without a hitch...just saying.

Again, I appreciate your input .

Ohh and BTW, just reading about some iLok issues. What should I check for in order to avoid pulling my hair out ? My Pace software is fully up to date and have Avid perpetual 10-11-12 showing. Will there be a separate 12.8 license deposited by Avid....automatically ???
Why does this whole exercise look so bloody complicated :(

You can make separate partitions. And with SSDs reboots should take 20 seconds

Or clone your system drive, swap it out and put the other version of PT on the clone:o

Question re : Co Install
 

Off topic Albee what cloning software do you use?

I've been using Macrium and it's easy but I'm having problems cloning more than one OS drive to my HDD. (A Terabyte multi partitioned)

On this subject MAC was super easy, CCC was a 1 button kind of thing

I had a weird issue with Reflect and went with Backupper Pro. There is a free version of Backupper(worth a try), but the "pro" version has a function specific to cloning the system drive and its worked really nicely for me:D Acronis worked okay, but I seemed to have to chase down BIOS settings to get it booting from the correct drive after a swap.
