I can't see a grid even when i am in grid view

[freezegelman]

My Pro Tools session froze this evening and I rebooted my computer to find that my sessions tracks won't display a grid when I click the grid view.
Not only that but when shuffle spot and splip views, the track background doesn't change either.
Audio track file backgrounds are just blank white, and instrument tracks are white and gray striped.
Anyone have anyidea how these setting were changed and how i can change them back?
i miss seeing my grind

thanks!

Because your rig froze try these troubleshooting tips.

Delete Pro Tools preferences.
-Go to Users > “your user name” > Library > Preferences
-Delete 'com.digidesign.protoolsLE.plist', 'DAE Prefs' (folder), 'DigiSetup.OSX' and 'Pro Tools preferences'.
-Empty trash, then restart the computer.

Repair Permissions
-Quit Pro Tools and launch Apple's "Disk Utility" application, located in:

MacHD>Applications>Utilities.

-Select your boot drive (the whole drive, not the volume underneath the drive)
-Go to the 'First Aid' tab and select "Repair Disk Permissions"

Apple recommends doing this any time you install new software, update your OS or reinstall any software.

Databases and Volumes

This step can be useful when receiving random 'assertion' or 'neoaccess' errors, especially when recording or saving.

-Delete the Digidesign Databases folders on the first level of all mounted hard drives, then delete the "Volumes" folder in MacHD > Library > Application Support > Digidesign > Databases.

-Empty trash, then restart the computer.


Then see if 'Draw Grids in Edit Window' is check in the Display Tab of the Pro Tools Perferences.

Alternatively, clicking the Bar:Beat Ruler toggles the Grid Display.
