Do I uninstall PT11 before installing PT12?
Hi guys,
I am about to purchase the reinstatement package for Pro Tools to allow me to get PT12.8. I have read that Pro Tools install takes 15GB disk space to install PT12, which will push my macbook to the limit really. Would I be better served uninstalling PT11 beforehand, or will installing PT12 do that for me? I only need to have my PT11 license on my iLok to upgrade to 12 through the reinstatement plan, correct? Or do I specifically need PT11 on my macbook? Thanks, Aidan. |

As Sw Rec said unistall PT11 and if you are in a Macbook just drag the folder under applications named Pro Tools to the trash. Make sure you delete preferences and databases before you install PT12.
Another issue here is you say that the drive will be maxed out ... you do have to have atleast 25% free space after installations as the computer need space to work with and using up more than 75-80 % will be a big problem. And you dont say what computer specs you have and you need atleat 7200 rpm internal drive or SSD and the same specs dor a secondary drive to record your audio to. These things are mandatory if you want to run PT12.8 on any machine aside from having a 500-1TB superfast SSD as internal drive, then you can do medium sessions on the internal drive.

Correct. Part of the PT12 upgrade process is a check of your ilLok account, and you'll have the opportunity to select your PT11 license to upgrade from.
