This is the Mac side for Protools LE but I will give it a shot.

In the answer base this is one of the causes you will find.

If you do a search you will find others.

This error is caused by permissions settings on the plug-ins not allowing specific users Read & Write access.

To change permissions on a plug-in, locate it in /Library/Application Support/Digidesign/Plug-Ins/
Select the file and choose Get Info > Ownership & Permissions, click on the lock icon and enter your administrator password, then change the Group permissions to Read & Write

Alternately you can drag and drop the plug-in from the PT 6.0 installer CD, however, this will not allow other User Accounts on the same system to use that plug-in.


In the PT 6.0 CD-->application support folder-->digidesign folder-->plug-ins folder.
Drag to the OS 10 hard drive-->Library folder-->Application Sup't folder-->digidesign-->plug-ins.

I appreciated your detailed "permissions error" explanation in your post. I too, had the DAE error -7400 just today and after changing permissions, all is working perfect! This OS X permissions thing (Or should I say UNIX thing) is starting to drive me crazy. At least I'm better protected security wise I guess ?!?
