Protools doesn\'t start up on new MiniMac intel, Imac Intel,.
Hello,
When I try to install protools 7.1.1 with update (ptle711_28603.dmg with ptle711cs2_31546.dmg) on my brand-new intel mini mac it does not start up. The protools icon in the dock bounces 2 times and then stops. Now, when I investigate further and try to start Protools from the command line something strange happens: I cd to /Applications/Digidesign/Pro Tools/Pro Tools LE.app/Contents/MacOS; where the actual protools application is, and execute Protools: *** damien-vanderhasselts-computer:/Applications/Digidesign/Pro Tools/Pro Tools LE.app/Contents/MacOS damienvanderhasselt$ ./Pro\ Tools\ LE Illegal instruction damien-vanderhasselts-computer:/Applications/Digidesign/Pro Tools/Pro Tools LE.app/Contents/MacOS damienvanderhasselt$ *** "illegal instruction". It comes out even more bizarre when I tried fetching some command line options unix-style, thus with an added "--help": *** damien-vanderhasselts-computer:/Applications/Digidesign/Pro Tools/Pro Tools LE.app/Contents/MacOS damienvanderhasselt$ ./Pro\ Tools\ LE --help ^C *** It boots!!! However, it's not completely equal what I send as option: *** damien-vanderhasselts-computer:/Applications/Digidesign/Pro Tools/Pro Tools LE.app/Contents/MacOS damienvanderhasselt$ ./Pro\ Tools\ LE -s Illegal instruction damien-vanderhasselts-computer:/Applications/Digidesign/Pro Tools/Pro Tools LE.app/Contents/MacOS damienvanderhasselt$ ./Pro\ Tools\ LE -b Illegal instruction damien-vanderhasselts-computer:/Applications/Digidesign/Pro Tools/Pro Tools LE.app/Contents/MacOS damienvanderhasselt$ ./Pro\ Tools\ LE -s Illegal instruction damien-vanderhasselts-computer:/Applications/Digidesign/Pro Tools/Pro Tools LE.app/Contents/MacOS damienvanderhasselt$ ./Pro\ Tools\ LE -fixthisbug Illegal instruction *** however: *** damien-vanderhasselts-computer:/Applications/Digidesign/Pro Tools/Pro Tools LE.app/Contents/MacOS damienvanderhasselt$ ./Pro\ Tools\ LE -test ^C damien-vanderhasselts-computer:/Applications/Digidesign/Pro Tools/Pro Tools LE.app/Contents/MacOS damienvanderhasselt$ ./Pro\ Tools\ LE -tesdd ^C damien-vanderhasselts-computer:/Applications/Digidesign/Pro Tools/Pro Tools LE.app/Contents/MacOS damienvanderhasselt$ ./Pro\ Tools\ LE -[bleep] ^C *** it all boots up protools! No pattern, no reason, no options, just one hell of a misery! And I'm only testing on my roommate's intel mini mac, while my intel imac & imac G5 give both no problems. I also saw it happening on another intel imac, and a new (black-metallic) intel imac! Also: even more bizarre: a complete mac osx reinstall isn't solving the problem! Please, please, more info on this bug. (well, I can actually boot protools using script editor, but, yeah, that's not really solving it is it?) Thanks a lot!
