"Error 401: You have been signed out. You can try signing in later."

Hey guys. So I've been working on a project and for some reason, all of a sudden, my project keeps abrubtly closing, with the following message: "Error 401: You have been signed out. You can try signing in later."

No idea why this is happenig. Everything was fine with previous projects and this is a project I worked on before without issues. Is there any way to fix this? I also noticed that even when I save my project, if I had EQ with a certain set of settings on one of my tracks, the EQ settings would be different when getting back into the project.

Also, this may or may not point to the issue but I tried to save like the second time this happened in a row and it wouldn't let me and said something about line 86 or something. I provided screenshots below.

Instead of creating "Projects", create "Sessions". Projects live in the cloud and sessions live on your local drive(where you really want them). If you can figure out how, when you are able to open your projects, resave them(or maybe "save copy") via the FILE menu and save to your hard drive.

Hm.. I thought I was saving them as sessions. I only used to word "project" to describe the sessions. I'm a bit confused. How do I know if I'm saving it as a "project" as opposed to a "session?" Thanks for the help.

If the files are in the cloud, its a project. With a session, you don't need an internet connection at all, UNLESS you are using iLok Cloud(which might be your problem). Personally, I rarely ever use iLok Cloud and prefer to use a physical iLok plugged into a USB port. Using the cloud requires a 100% perfect internet connection, and its amazing how often that glitches(the smallest glitch will stop you dead in your tracks....pun intended)

Well that explains a lot of the glitch issues I've been having. But I need a physical iLok key in order to have offline sessions? How should I go about resaving my projects to sessions?
