Default Errors I keep encountering on Pro tools

aaf library failed.jpgHi I have recently purchased Pro tools 12.8 on PC and noticed I have issues when starting it up the first error to pop up is this : AAF library initialization failed.
And another one I also encounter is when I try to import my samples/songs in a wave form it wont let me apply SRC or click done.

I've done research as to what is the source of this problem and I stumbled upon a playback engine error, but when I click playback engine it gives me a error message saying this: Could not complete the playback engine command because Assertion in "...\Ped\PED.cpp", line 558

please help

Sounds like your audio interface is being used by something other than Pro Tools (most likely the operating system.) Make sure all system sounds and other computer sounds (iTunes, Web Browsers/You Tube) do not use the same audio interface as what Pro Tools is using. Pro Tools does not like to share.

Go to Windows' Sound control panel and set playback and recording tabs to use anything other than the audio interface you are using with pro tools.

Also, you have not mentioned anything about what your sound card/audio interface is. Might want to do that if you want help since no one on a forum can guess that.

Focusrite had problems with their drivers. Make sure you are on the latest one and that the audio interface is hooked directly to the computer (not through a hub)

Bump - Running Pro Tools 2018.4.0. New PT convert here from Cubase.

I'm having an issue with the 2i2 as well. As soon as I load a project and hit the play button I get an AAE error 9060. Sometimes Pro Tools immediately crashes, and sometimes it stays open. I tried to investigate this error code but I can't seem to find anything recent, with the exception of deleting the database and preferences. I've done this and it still doesn't work. The 2i2 is working perfectly with Cubase 9.5 Pro, FL Studio 12, Komplete Kontrol, Maschine, etc...

Hopefully someone has some suggestions?

Did you do this with the sound control panel? ^^^^

Thanks for the help! Yup, I installed the latest 2i2 drivers from Focusrite right before I installed PT. I get the AAE 9060 error the first time I hit the Play button in a project, even if it's a blank project. Made all of the system mods as instructed to no avail.
