Converting to MAC
Posted: Tue Sep 19, 2006 1:04 pm
and why shouldnt I? as far as performance goes, my G4 should be able to handle things for a year or so until i get money for a Mac Pro. Dudes and Dudets I'm so sick of Windows screwing up and hindering my work with music. So it dawned on me, I HAVE A MAC ALREADY, why not use it. So my studio is drastically changing. Got a mac book called "switching to the Mac" to get me started. But I ran into a glitch. My 002 is not being detected properly by the operating system. This is what I sent tech support at digidesign but thought wouldnt hurt to run it by you smart lads and lassys:

Please give a concise description of the problem:
Digi 002 interface is not being detected. When starting Protools a window pops up saying: "Digidesign hardware is in use by another application (-1133)" I click "ok" and protools shuts down(closes before getting into the program). No other application (that im aware of) is using the 002. i have Reason on my computer but its completly shut down. i even tried restarting the computer to make sure that no other programs were on but makes no difference.
Actions required to reproduce the problem:
Troubleshooting already attempted:
I read the Getting Started with Digi 002 under "Mac Configuration - Sys setting for Mac OSX" and did what it said. turned automatic update off etc. Then read the section on "Configuring AMS" in app B. When I opend up AMS this is what I see: IAC Driver icon(the "device is online box is left unchecked) Network icon 2x2 icon w/an I/O for A and B USB Axiom 25 icon w/ an I/O for 1 and just an In for 2 An icon that has a red question mark in the center on top of a what looks like a midi controller(could this be the 002?)
