PT 11.3 no longer importing audio files along with session data

[jsbeeth]

I'm working on a session and noticed that when I import session data from other sessions/hard drives, it's no longer allowing me the option to import/copy the actual audio into the new session, so I therefore must keep all my other drives connected to access the audio files.

I'm on PT 11.3 and don't remember this being an issue in the past. Am I overlooking something simple?

I could just manually copy the pertinent audio files from the old drives to the new, but many of these sessions involve several audio files and splices/edits per track, so this would be quite cumbersome.

Thanks!

Are you storing the audio in the session folder?

Yes, the audio files are stored in the session folders of each respective session. However, it's not giving me the option to copy over the audio files from the old session into the new one I'm importing into.

Absent system info are you on a Mac? If so check the permissions on the files in question.
