Thanks

Yes. The only difference between HD and vanilla is the license asset; otherwise they are the same program.

The question here may be more are the HD drivers for HD/TDM working OK? That's a separate valid question.

Thanks guys for all the input.

One last question, silly or not: Why does PT HD 10 have to be uninstalled before installing Mavericks?

Thanks again

Because the unisntaller is broken on Mavericks.

But in general you should avoid doing in-situ upgrades on OS X, and Avid warns you not to. They can be too flakey. It's better to clone an archive of your old systems and do a complete new clean OS X install and then reinstall the right versions of apps and plugins clean on that OS X release. You can use system migration assistant to bring over user files, but not apps or drivers. Even better buy a new boot/system drive and install everything new to that in a USB caddy or similar and only install that inside the Mac, or clone it to the internal drive if everything works. A good clean out like that every few years is probably worth doing anyhow.

Thank you Darryl, very helpful!

Reviving this thread just to ask a clarifying question on the compatibility of TDM cards with Mavericks when running PT10HD. Anyone had any experience with Mav's and the Accel/Core cards? Any issues?

Thanks for the feedback.

Hello all.

I've got some legacy PT10HD systems still working daily very well under 10.8.x …the only trouble is i'd really like to upgrade my N.I/Komplete package a bit, & that needs 10.9.x .

I know all this stuff is ancient history now, but what was the conclusion with OS10.9.x & PT10HD…does it run ok? Any graphics/menu bugs? It would give my machines another lease of life if I could go at least one more O.S up.

If working, any revisions of PT10HD or OS 10.9 I need to avoid, or can I just update Mavericks & PT10HD as far as they will go?

For some reason I'm still running PTHD 10.3.7.296 (according to the finder).

Cheers
