Thanks for answering in almost less than no time!
I couldn 't answer any earlier, because there 's a little time shift of about a couple of hours between Europe and the U.S.
So here 's some further information regarding the problems trying to download Pro Tools LE 8.0.5 Mac Update:
When you go to this avid-site, the avid knowledge base
http://avid.force.com/pkb/articles/e...651?popup=true
you 'll be directed to the site that contains information and a download-link for Pro Tools 8.0.5 LE Mac
http://avid.force.com/pkb/articles/e...663?popup=true
You can download the info, a pdf-file, but you cannot download the Pro Tools Update.
If you try to download the Update file, you 'll be redirected to site where you started from (first link above).
There 's a site in this forum, that contains information and download-links for Pro Tools 8.0.5, 8.1.1 and 9.0.2

Again, you can download the infos, but when you click on the download link for the Pro Tools Update, an error occurs, telling you this site is not available.
And at last there 's an avid-site, that lists up all available downloads back to Pro Tools 7.

Funny thing here: I was able to download a couple of Updates for windows, but none for Mac - except for one file for a PPC-Mac.
The former mentioned sites where updated the last time back in 2011-2013, including the forum-site.
But the last site I pointed to, with all these updates back to Pro Tools 7, has been updated in 2018 - but still not working properly, when it comes to download Updates.
Allright, so far I travelled many a lightyear in the avid-universe, trying to discover new Pro Tools 8.0.5 LE Updates - but with no avail at all.
But hey, I 'm still young, and someday I might gonna find a source that 'll allow me to download a Pro Tools Update even for a Mac
Oh, by the way, not shure about the RME-stuff, cause I never bothered with it (not yet, but if I can 't find a 8.0.5 Update, who knows . . . )
But there site still preserves downlaods and Updates even for OS 8.6 - and their links do work.
Mac OS 8.6? Was anounced way back in the last century - now that 's impressive.
So come on avid, give it a try - and make all these Updates for Mac-users available again.
Please.
With best regards from Germany,
