Default Re: Switched to Mac but can't open older PT files

"The track "any instrument" is unable to perform Elastic Audio because an audio file on the playlist is unsupprted for Elastic Audio processing as it is read only...."

When I click OK for each track that has this message, the wave forms still show but almost ghost-like and won't sound when I press play. I used ProTools 8 M-Powered for these files in the past on Windows and had no problem. I even sent these same files in the past to another musician using a Mac and had no problems opening it. I can record a new session fine, just can't open an old one that I stored in external drive. Anyone know what's going on? Is there a piece of the files missing? Seems like everything is there including the "Audio" folder.
Have you tried creating a new session and using Import Session Data..?
