One thing to look out for is if you have CCleaner clean the caches on the Mac, it will delete your AU cache (AudioUnitCache), the VSL plugin caches and maybe others of products I don't use. This just forces a rescan of the plugins which can be time consuming - it doesn't damage anything. If you want to clean the caches and don't want to rescan the plugs just move the caches from the user/Library/Caches to the desktop and then move them back when CCleaner finishes. This doesn't effect PT plugs.

Good info... Thanks!
