Re: Put in a bunch of hours last night on a session and now it won't open!
I have mine set up to back up every two minutes and yes, I have had to resort to using that way more than once!
Man, I am a happy camper now!

Yep and the usual remedy is to use a powered hub between the computer & iLok.

Re: Put in a bunch of hours last night on a session and now it won't open!
I used to have tons of problems with iLok when I was doing my first projects on my laptop but after moving everything over to this desktop computer it worked a lot better but I still have an iLok II and maybe that isn't getting along 100% with my USB ports.....Hmmmmm. ......
Anyways, luckily it's all working properly again even though it's inconclusive what was my main problem yesterday. Maybe something was running in the background at that time that I wasn't aware of. Thankful for a happy conclusion! I got to burn off a couple of copies onto CDs last night and re-tweaked the final mix. It sounds great!

I'm sure you've done this but have you turned off power savings measures to all USB ports? For that matter - do you have USB2 or USB3 ports? |

Re: Put in a bunch of hours last night on a session and now it won't open!
To be honest, I didn't even know that there was such a thing as power savings measures for USB ports, I could see that as something that you might want on a laptop but this is a desktop computer. I would assume that those ports would be powered all of the time.
For that matter, the iLok was lit when it was plugged in, so it must have been getting power. My iLok is an iLok II My computer is probably less than three years old so I'm thinking that it might have 3.0 USB but I don't know for sure. There must be a way to find out. Maybe in My Computer?

As to power savings measures they are turned on by default on Windows and it doesn't matter whether the computer is a laptop or desktop. This is one of those basic optimization steps done to a computer for working inside PT. My guess is you have done any of the optimizations usually done to a computer for audio work. Here's a link to the Avid site for optimizations for a whole host of operating systems: http://avid.force.com/pkb/articles/e...oting/en367983 |
