Default Re: Help! Issues with pro tools LE 8 and macbook

You have a few issues here to consider:
#1- the DIGI 001 will not work with ANY laptop or any version of Pro Tools newer than 6.4(which won't run on any modern OS). So that is a door stop.

#2-your MBP. Does it have a firewire port and/or a thunderbolt port? Without that(and the adapters to get from Thunderbolt to FW400), then the 003 is also not going to work.

#3-there's a link near the top of this(and every) DUC page called Additional Resources. Click that and navigate to the compatibility grid for Mac to see which versions of PT will work with your version of OSX(10.6.8?). I think you have the right stuff, but it may still be worth a look.

#4-the PT software needs to be installed fresh onto the laptop(system migration or dragging from the old computer is not going to work)

#5-the good news is; the 003 SHOULD still be a working product(despite being unsupported) as long as you pair it with the right combination of OS and PT software(assuming you can connect it-refer to #2 above).
