Protools 10.3.3 has a 24 minute session length?

[broken81]

When I zoom out it just turns grey past 24 minutes. If I try and record past 24 minutes I get a "Playback has reached the end of the session" window pop up. Now there is no "open ended record allocation" option in the prefs, so how does one change or fix this so I can record a larger session?

Not sure if this matters but i'm on Osx 10.8.2

Ok, I just opened a old session from protools 9 and it have like two hours of time in the session. Now if I create a session with "Last Used" settings it has the same amount of time from protools 9 session I just opened. Is there some way to adjust the time so I can fix this if it ever happens again with out having to open a old session?

What is your session start time?

Did you look at Timecode on the timeline or just min/sec? I suspect your TC start may be causing problems.

The max session length at 48kHz is 13hrs, at 96kHz it's 6 hours and at 192kHz it's 3 hours.
So probably your session start time is way before the start of your audio material. You can change that by going to session setup (cmd+num block 2 on mac or from the "setup" menu) and change the session start time to something closer to your actual audio material start. A dialog will appear, where you should choose "maintain timecode position".
After that you'll have plenty of space to the right.
