Re: why can't i just load the software and start
Why can't you just give names to the drives that are shorter than 11 characters?

Even through PT 8 I got this error with no non-stock PT plugins installed. At that time I wasn't using an iLok so I just clicked the "doitdammit" button. When I got it in PT 9 with a bunch of iLok'ed plugins I renamed the drive...

ADDENDUM: I just tested this and I see that it is Pro Tools that throws the warning. Plus, the wording used is Interlok, not iLok. I think that strengthens the interpretation that this applies to Pace disk-based auths, not the iLok.
