Default PT 11 sometimes won´t play

Hi there,

when i´m in a PT Session it sometimes occur, that suddenly i can´t play files.

Everything works fine, but after a while suddenly the "Stop" and "Play" buttons start flashing slowly and nothing happens.

Also recording is not possible.

I then have to restart PT completley.

Does anyone has a thought why this could be?

I´m using PT HD 11 Thunderbold Native on an iMac with 10.10.5

Kind regards
Michael

you may have accidentally hit control + spacebar which enables pause.

Question Re: PT 11 sometimes won´t play

I have seen this happen with OS X v10.8.5 and Pro Tools v11.3.1. When this happens, what does the transport status say in the lower left edge of the edit window?

Ctrl>space actually puts the transport "online" so it's looking for an external sync source. I only accidentally do this a few times a day....
