Error -9105 while opening sessions

[dwaynedelario]

Hey all. I'm getting a strange error when opening sessions and it seems to happen at random. I will click to open the session and it will give me this error a few times in a row and then opens fine after a few tries. I've done all the usual pref clearing and maintenance.

"Could not complete your request because (-9105) while translating Tracks"



Anyone have any ideas what this is? Only thing I can think of is that the AAFs I am getting have both 16 bit and 24 bit files so maybe its a mixed format thing?

Pro Tools 11.2.2 HDX2 with OMNI

Does this happen if you hold the shift key while opening the session?

[dwaynedelario]

Hi Jonathan. Thanks for the reply. That is the command to inactivate plugins right? I have not tried that, will do. It seems to happen much more when I am switching between sessions on a regular basis throughout the day.

Today I opened up only a few and I didn't get the error. I also cleared out all MXF audio media that had been imported from AAF's and re-imported with force convert to .wav enabled in the import dialog.

Hi there, I´m getting the same Error when switching session on a regular base.
Anyone ?

I had this problem and found a solution:

- Right click on session icon in finder and select "open with protools" . But always with protools running as a active application in top (not in background or finder selected)

Hi andrum,

Thanks, that sounds interesting. Any idea why this actually works or what´s the difference ? I´ll definitely give it a try.

Best, Intersound

Are you using Altiverb? I've been getting these all the time since updating to the most recent version of Altiverb.

[dwaynedelario]

Hey Will. I was suspect of the same thing! Seems to only happen with sessions that have Altiverb instances.

-9105 is a plugin activation error.

Strangely, the right click trick worked for me also.
