Mojave
am currently using Pro Tools 2019.12 and my Mac OS is Mojave (10.14.6). My Mac is from 2012 so the latest OS I can run is Catalina (10.15.7). I have read conflicting things about Pro Tools and Catalina. I need to be able to import video and WAV and other audio into my sessions. Am I better off just staying on Mojave? If I CAN upgrade my license, what version of Pro Tools would I need for full functionality with Catalina?
Thanks! Walter |

Re: Mojave
Hello Walter!
If your mac is a Mac Pro 5,1 (2012) you can pretty easily update to /or install/ Monterey so you will get a lot more support for your workstation. I recommend Martin Lo package. you can start here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5k_L-eZ7hEY

Re: Mojave
Thank for your replay. I have a 2012 IMac and I can’t upgrade past Mojave unfortunately.

Re: Mojave
....and more on your subject, i think it is worth updating to _anything_ up from Mojave. For example if you use two screens with PT, it remembers the location on stuff (forgets every time on Mojave)...So go Catalina at least. I do not know what you read about Catalina that's bad, but i do not expect any problems with your existing license....

Re: Mojave
Thanks again for your answers. Ok firstly, when I had Catalina installed, I was unable to import video (I’ve also read this was a problem for other users). Regarding installing an OS past Catalina (Monterey), that would be difficult because in order to install Monterey, It has to be a CLEAN install..not an upgrade and I don’t want to have to install all my programs again.

Re: Mojave
I researched Martin Lo's and Open Core and went with Open Core. It's very self contained and and worked beautifully. Matin Lo's involves some extra steps, but is also very nice.
https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-...opped-hardware I am currently running a 2012 Mac Pro 5.1 with Monterey 12.7.2 and Pro Tools 2023.12 with the 2023.3 HD Drivers. I did a lot of changes to get a Metal graphics card, 2 NVMe SSD drives in a switch, but I have a machine that is fast and reliable and will last me a while. The longest I've ever ran any computer.

Re: Mojave
Never used migration assistant. I have my iMac cloned to a bootable external drive via super duper. But back to my original question, if I were to upgrade to Catalina, which version of Pro Tools would I need to upgrade to?
