no activation card inside the Pro tools 9 box set

[tonylau310]

i bought the pro tools 9 box set few years ago and now trying to reinstall it on my new macbook pro (touch bar versions)

i have already had the license activated on iLok and it is linked to my avid account, but i couldnt find the Pro tools 9 download link on Avid website, it requires me to enter the activation code however i only found a yellow registration card in the box instead of an activation card

What should i do to successfully install Pro tools 9 on my macbook? thanks.

Avid is no longer posting older PT versions on account pages, but if you're registered, a quick e-mail to them should have you going again. Hint: SAVE THE INSTALLER IN A SAFE PLACE! A lot of us have external hard drives with nothing but PT and plugin installers on them. Always have a backup plan.

i havent received the email with download link included since registered,
Though i have an installation disc of PT9, i wonder how to read it on my macbook without the cd rom

A good excuse to buy a USB DVD drive

Now i also found out that installer in the disc is .exe file, i tried to open it with Wine Bottle but not succeed. any ideas

Are you sure the copy you bought is legal?

i checked with Avid support, they confirmed my license but the download link of PT9 seems missing...

1 - You can't install PT 9 on macOS Sierra (not supported)
2 - I can get you the PT 9 installer for mac (i've backed up, send me a pm msg)
3 - It seems that you have the iLok asset in your Account, then is legit.
