Re: I\'m So Tired Of Protools Crashing!!
hey we all feel your pain. the people who claim to have solid systems are not using your plug-ins or number of tracks or your soft synths. do not believe them. they are not liars, but they are not running your system with your parameters. the problem is very deep and very difficult to fix, and it stems from old software and ever-changing OS lots. there is no easy solution and it requires drastic action. we probably will not see a stable protools system again in our careers. but it will limp along, so i guess that what we have to use.

Re: I\'m So Tired Of Protools Crashing!!
Here goes . My system runs rock solid. The only crash I have on a regular basic is the Clear clips, Option C, which will crash my rig 99% everytime. I have a ticket pulled on this one and I bet it will be fixed with 6.9 cs1. Having different issues with different systems is a OS problem, what crashes on a new G 5 does't necessaly crash on a Duel G 4 1.25. My system is on 24/7 and except for the one mention crash it runs unblievably solid. As much as I hate it , it sounds as thought you need to re-install and reformate your system drive. Upgrade to 6.9 and OS 10.3.8, reformate all your firewire drives with "journed " turn on. Run plug in validator from 6.9. Throw awall all of your cracked plug ins, sorry! and I bet your system will rock as it should. I know this isn't what you want to hear but before you go crazy you owe it to yourself to run the steps I've mentioned, at that point, you should also run digi test on your cards to make sure thay too are working Ok. Trouble shooting a system is very labor intesive but the only way to fix the hell you are in. once again
1 .OS 10.3.8, all drives journeled 2. Pro-Tools 6.9 althought 6.8 cs 8 ran fine for me,except all the bugs it had. UPGRADE!! 3. Re formate all your firewire drives and turn journeling ON, They too must have 911 Oxform chipsets!! 4. test all cards ( digi test) 5. remove all crask plug in's, again Sorry! 6. Check your power supply UPS is a must ! 7. Make sure you have only Apple approved RAM ! A Must!! in know but this is where most problems live!! This should take about four hours of work but the end result will be what you want. Then Everyweek you do this!! 1. Disk utility repair permisions 2. Dick Warrior 3.2 run from the Disk and fix all errors 3. Zapp you Phee Ram, four chimes 4. Make sure no virus software is running in background, ie (Nortons) This will insure a smooth running system!! that takes about 15 min, and i do it every Monday AM before i start working. Thus My SYSTEM ROCKS!!! I hope this all helps, Good Luck!!

Wow, I have a $100.00 portable cassette machine I bought about 15 years ago that has NEVER crashed, although I DO have to change the 2 AA bateries every now and then. I repeat - NEVER!

Re: I\'m So Tired Of Protools Crashing!!
Sory.
I am yet to see OSX in all its glory, for those who have it "Rock Solid", congratulations. I am unfortunatley back on OS9 till this board cleans up all the OSX problems. I love Protools, yet cant get OSX stable to save my life, I hate having to explain myself when I get the ball spinning or the unexpected quit screen. It is just unprofessional to encounter these with money coming thru the door. The trade off for me, unfortunatley is a step back to 9.2, is it such a step back when it still works flawlessly, thats the question?

Re: I\'m So Tired Of Protools Crashing!!
Why do I keep seeing people in this thread suggesting to have drives "journaled" when formatting? Everything I've heard prior (other threads, word from people reputable users, etc) has been to have journaling turned OFF?
