Default I bought Pro Tools 12 and can only have 3 projects [solved]

Ok so I bought the Educational version of Pro Tools and for some reason I can only have 3 projects like Pro Tools | First. I re-downloaded everything and still this problem remains.

Are you confusing Projects and Sessions?
Projects are cloud, Sessions are local to your machine.
Projects you are limited to 3, Sessions you can have as many as you would like stored locally.

John1192, I see that you didn't notice how I said that I bought the program... Please read everything before writing a stupid message thanks

Thank you 29CountsNY and JFreak, for giving me some real feedback. This makes more sense, and has fixed my problem. Also How do you buy more cloud Storage just so i know for the future if i need it?

First, John was trying to be helpful and basically said the same thing as the others, your basic PT plan comes with 3 cloud projects.

for more, see http://www.avid.com/avid-cloud-colla...ols/how-to-buy

Agreed. It doesn't pay to be rude, more especially to a respected member of this community who was being helpful, and who stated things as they are.

Fair enough, I was very annoyed at the time due to something else. Anyway the problems all fixed, sorry for any aggression that I gave and thank you for helping me fix this problem

No offense taken. Just remember that a polite question is more likely to get a polite answer
