Pro Tools won't open and strange Warning message

I have been using Pro Tools 11.3 successfully for about a month. I just did an OS X update a week or so ago. I also did a Pro Tools update about a week ago (to 11.3.1). I went to open PT and the app opened, but my top menu never came up. It was just the normal Finder menu, but with my Pro Tools interface open where I could see all the tracks, etc. Clicking to desktop and back to PT several times did nothing.
I closed PT and did a Disk Utility "Repair Permissions". As the repair started up, the progress text gave me the warning below. I'm trying to figure out what it means. If it is a Mac thing or a Pro Tools issue. If someone can help me I would sincerely appreciate it.
<<<<<< Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.>>>>>>>>>>
The repair progress continues with this:
<<<<<<Group differs on “Library/Printers/InstalledPrinters.plist”; should be 80; group is 0.Permissions differ on “Library/Printers/InstalledPrinters.plist”; should be -rw-rw-rw- ; they are -rw-r--r-- .Repaired “Library/Printers/InstalledPrinters.plist”User differs on “private/var/db/displaypolicyd”; should be 0; user is 244.Group differs on “private/var/db/displaypolicyd”; should be 0; group is 244.Repaired “private/var/db/displaypolicyd”>>>>>>>>>>>>
I've never seen this message before and wonder it is part of the problem or signals what the problem is. I have downloaded a few free Pro Tools plugins. If anyone can help, I would sincerely appreciate it.
Thank you,
Leonard

Thanks apostol13,
You need to make SURE the Digidesign Core Audio Manager software, which Logic and iTunes use to "talk" to Digi hardware, is NOT running. if ti IS, turn it off.
Then PT will start up.
Cheers

  • A very new and strange warning message from my iPhone

    I am getting a very new and strange warning message on my iPhone. The phone will repeatedly - even when sitting idle - flash a message that states, "This accessory not made to work with iPhone. Would you like to turn on Airplane Mode to reduce audio interference ... you will not be able to make or receive calls?"
    This message started to flash up on my iPhone after I installed Leopard yesterday evening (11/15/07). I just updated my iTunes software today so I have iTunes 7.5 (19) and my iPhone software version is 1.1.2. Finally, I am not trying to hack my iPhone since I ain't smart enough to do so and, even if I were, I wouldn't want to have a dead phone on my hands.
    Any suggestions or thoughts? Thanks.

    Charles
    I think my first instinct would be to try a Reset of the iPhone, if that doesn't improve things then try a Restore from within iTunes BUT.....
    I would also wait awhile and see in anyone else weighs in with other suggestions first.
    Good luck

  • Pro-Tools won't open.

    I never touch my Pro Tools except for when I am going to work on something I receive that was made on Pro Tools. My situation is that everytime that I try to open Pro Tools(since I upgraded to 7.2.3) it gives me a message stating that "other devices are connected to the interface". I make sure every other application is closed but it still shows this message after attempting to open.
    Any sugestions?

  • PhotoshopElement_10_WWEFDJ.dmg won't open?? Warning message

    I believe my Photoshop Element Trial has downloaded, and is just now extracting, but I got a pop-up warning box that says PhotoshopElement_10_WWEFDJ.dmg won't open. It says it's a disk image and the reason it can't open is "invalid checksum". What does this mean? Is this warning affecting the extraction of my download? And how long should this extraction take?
    Thanks!

    It is possible that it is still extracting your download.  Where did you choose to download the install files too?

  • Iphoto won't open and has a message that it may be damaged or incomplete when I try to open.  It worked fine yesterday and I loaded ilife 11 and now iphoto won't open.

    After I loaded ilife 11 and tried to open iphoto, I could not and had a message saying it may be damaged or incomplete.  It was working fine yesterday and I've never seen this message.  What should I do?

    First run Software Update so you have the latest version.
    If you still have trouble then hold down CMD and OPT as you click on iPhoto.  It will give you options to rebuild your library.

  • New macbook pro, safari won't open and repair disk permissions did nothing to help

    Safari starts, blue bar moves about an inch in search bar, then stops. Then nothing. Tried repairing disk permissions to no avail. Safari still doesn't open. Whatever os x that is installed on new macbook pro's, since just bought on Sunday 10-14-12, is the operating software. The apple store there is no user manual. Strange. So here we are on another, older macbook pro, able to go on internet and see what answers or diagnoses others have tried and trued.

    3 days old?, just pack the machine up and tell them you want another one, that this one is a lemon.
    They will likely take your word for it and just give you another rather than you demand your money back instead.
    If you wait too long then they say you should have brought it back sooner, now have to wait until it's fixed, only to give you more problems later.

  • Itunes 8.2 won't open and gives weird message

    I tried downloading iTunes 8.2... it seems to download fine but when I select to open iTunes after it is finished installing, it gives me this message (that I can't read!!!):
    http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/3920/zz25.jpg
    When I try to open iTunes it won't and that message always appears.
    It might be because when I had the older version of iTunes it was in a different language... but now I can't change it or read it. When I install 8.2 the agreement also shows up in boxes.

    Hey,
    Here are the steps that should help:
    1. Close all applications.
    2. Go into the Finder>Home>Library>Preferences
    3. Delete 'com.apple.iDVD.plist' and 'com.apple.iTunes.plist'
    4. Restart Immediatley.
    This should work. Cheers, Ricky.

  • Premiere Pro CS4 won't open. Receiving Error message...

    When I try to open Premiere Pro CS4, the program doesn't open but I receive the Error message below instead:
    LoadLibraryEx Startup.dll failed with error 999: Error performing inpage operation.
    Does anyone know what this means or how I can fix it aside from reinstalling the software?  Thanks.
    Yoey

    Thank you for that info. I actually just reinstalled the program only to have another error occur. Apparently that when you install Premier, you must also install a bunch of other perhipheral software including After Effects Third Party Content. There was an error with that but Premiere worked fine, but After Effects wouldn't start. Then I checked for updates and everything seems to be working fine. Not even sure if that Third Party Content is working because my laptop is not powerful enough to run After Effects effectively anyways. But thanks again for your response. I will defenitely keep that in mind if I ever have any more problems.

  • TS1717 My itunes won't open and I get message that says "The file iTunes library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes." I am unsure what this means, but I have uninstalled and reinstalled the itunes, and it still will not

    I receive the message: The file "iTunes library.itl"cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes. I do not know exactly what this means.  I have Windows 7 on my computer and was able access itunes until just recently.  I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes multiple times and that does not work.  Sometimes I can get in when immediately after installing, but then if I close it, i cannot get back in. Now, i can't get in at all.

    That message is usually a sign that you tried to roll back to an earlier build of iTunes, but occasionally I've seen it connected to a new upgrade. This technique should fix things.
    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

  • FF won't open and an error message appears on the screen "unresponsive script" it I open task manager and stop the error message FF runs normally, how do I fix this problem

    This problem only started when I upgraded to FF 4.0. I am running Windows 7. When I go to the task manager I am able to see the error message in the processes area, if I highlight it and tell the task manager to stop it, FF immediately starts and runs normally. I have no idea where the error message is coming from.

    Did you look in the USER Library? Theses folders are hidden by default. See Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 and later

    Shouldn't be having a problem, then. That's the version for ML. Try taking your question to the Safari forum - https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/safari - that's where all the Safari experts hang out.
