I've been using Protools 6.2.3 on Mac G5, Dual 2GHZ running OS 10.3.9 for several years with no issues, suddenly in the middle of a session yesterday I attempt to print an audiosuite effect on a channel and protools freezes mid-render. Now, the same thing keeps happening when I attempt to open a basic session. FREEZING! EVERY TIME! Tried to experiment with other sessions - the same problem so I know this particular session isn't corrupted.
Even tried to create a new session. Same thing happens! This has been on-going several days now, effectively rendering protools useless and screwing my deadlines. I can launch pro-tools and my 002 hardware connects without issue, its just using the software to open anything, create anything, or render anything. Dumped Preferences, Repaired permissions, nothing helps! I really don't want to have to re-install because I'm worried of screwing up my plugins and you all know how much a pain it is to re-install waves (which is why i haven't upgraded OS or PT 7.0 yet). If someone has encountered this and knows what the heck is going on please help me. Every minute my project deadline is ticking away - can't even open my sessions! Thank you. Jeff |

Jeff, is it "Freezing" or "unexpectedly Quitting" ??
Also, did you trash all digidesign Database folders from the root of ALL drives on your system, as well as all the ddb files in HD/Library/Application Support/Digidesign/Databases/Volumes Did you try ALL of the steps in the "Troubleshooting Sticky Thread" in this forum?? You can also temporarily move all your plugins from your --- HD/Library/Application Support/Digidesign/Plug ins --- to a temporary folder on your system, like your desktop, so that Pro-tools doesn't load them, to isolate if it's a plugin issue. (You won't have to re-install them, you just put them back in the folder you moved them from)
