Problem with LE 7

[danny271]

Hi guys, I'm having a little bit of trouble and could use a helping hand.

I just started a studio production course and I'm hoping to upgrade to 9 soon. I bought an Mbox 2 a few years ago and I never really used it all that much. I am home for the holidays and I'm trying to install LE 7 which came with the Mbox on my new Macbook Pro and while it seemed to install just fine, it now will not open when I attempt to launch it.

I'm just wanting to get it up and running so I can register it and then get the 9 upgrade download and get off to the races.

Here are my specs:

Macbook Pro
OS X 10.6.5
2.53 GHz Intel Core i5
4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3

Pro Tools LE 7
Mbox 2

Upon opening the program from the dock, it immediately pops up with a problem report saying that PT LE quit unexpectedly.

I will copy and paste the problem details in the bottom of this post.
I downloaded the MBox 2 firmware intel update v143.
I'm really just looking to get it up and running so I can register everything and then buy the 9 upgrade. I'm fairly new to PT and any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

On further investigation I learned that 7 will not run on my OS.
I got my Mbox lit up and working so I guess I'm good, thanks for reading and sorry to clutter up the board, this post can be deleted if necessary.
Thanks

You don't need to have 7 running to get Pro tools 9, the MBox qualifies you for this:

You need an iLok though:
