Hello!
(SANDRA REPORT AT END OF THIS LONG EXPLANATION)
I am a new user of pro tools in just this past year. I recently purchased the pro tools 10 express with the 3rd generation mbox mini. when originally installing the program there were a few error codes that came up, however being a new user I thought it may have just been plug ins not included on the express version.(10.3.3) sounds stupid I know. at any rate the software installed and was working just fine as far as I was aware. Then updates came (10.4.3) and it told me to delete old version of pro tools before I could install the update. I left it alone not sure if it would mess my whole set up with my ilok up. Well when I turned computer on to use pro tools earlier this week, it was not able to read my analog I/O's and I had to set it up as mono to even be able to record anything. that was difficult for me to figure out even. So to try and make this long story short. I deleted my 10.3.3 version. tried to upload my 10.4.3 update, it said ilok is not found, please plug in to continue... well my ilok was plugged in so I uninstalled program and reverted back to 10.3.3 version. this time, installed with no error messages, however now a description message pops up saying "Unable to locate hardware, please plug in hardware and click "ok" when ready." Well my Mbox mini says hardware connected and streaming. however pro tools cant read it. I called to tech support and they suggested I download asio4all, however that driver did not work either. im at a complete loss of what to do. if anyone can help me it would be greatly appreciated!
