Drag and Drop files on Mac not working
I've read the posts about Windows users not being able to do this but after installing PT11.1.1 I cannot drag sound effect files (.wav .mp3 etc) onto the timeline. Many work but about half do not and this didn't happen in PT10.
Clues much appreciated |

Re: Drag and Drop files on Mac not working
I have a mixture of mp3, wav and aiff in my sound effects folder, all are giving problems in a random manner (some work some don't). I have tried playing with the settings (convert to session format, automatically copy on import etc) but none have an effect on this problem.

Re: Drag and Drop files on Mac not working
My bad.
I meant; how is the disk formatted?

Re: Drag and Drop files on Mac not working
Project disk is Mac OSX extended (journaled) as is the SFX disk. So weird - I just tried again and there seems no rhyme or reason to it.
