Authorize problem when starting Pro Tool.

[Piano - 2008]

Hi,

I recently got Pro Tools LE 7.3 and installed it. I'm still have three issues to solve:
a) Which is the best QuickTime version for this Pro Tools?

b) When I start Pro Tools the Windows that open require one of two actions:
1) Authorize: If I click on this button a windows open with a message that I need to install
the key for the Mbox2.
I really do not know what it means.
2) Quick: When I click this button then the new panel to open or create new sessions appear.
The first tiem this window open requested the product key, I type in and continue; and
after that the panel open directly.

c)I have seem online update (patches) for Pro Tools 7.3 like ptle731cs6_44399. Do you think is
better for me to download and apply this patch or is it included in the update CD that come with
the software? I do not know if my question could look stupid but I am new on this software. I
just have it installed and has not been time enough to go through it.

Could any one of you help me to solve those issues, please?

Thank you in advance. I appreciate your help.

b-you have to authorize protools the first time you open it. The code is on the inside front cover of the Getting Started Guide and it is case sensitive.

The code is on the inside front cover of the Getting Started Guide and it is case sensitive.

For some of the newer versions, it's on the CD sleeve.

I already know the code is on the cover of the guide. The problem is that, even I typed in the code the first time, it continue requesting the code every other time I open Pro Tools. Then when I hit the Authorize button a message is issue saying that the hardware need to be installed with its Key. But if I hit the QUIT button the the sofware continue normally. That's what I do not understad.

Thank you for your reply,

Maybe I did not explain myself clearly about this litle issue:

Thank you very much,

Oh!

Those are plugin authorization requests. You have a plugin installed that you don't have an authorization for.


Reas this link; that should explain it.

It sounds like you're being asked about demo/trial plug-ins.

When you launch Pro Tools and a window pops up, what does it say exactly? Please write the entire text of the message in your reply.
