DP launch problem

Post by greg oakley »

Hi all. I'm using some older software - DP 4.12, on a G5 dual 2.5 with an earlier version of OS 10 point something (sorry - posting from work). I have kept my Waves Diamond package(5.0) updated simply because it cost so much initially and I have a hard time just letting that kind of money go. When I tried to launch DP yesterday, the authorization prompt for Mach 5 popped up instead of it loading right along with DP as it usually does. I was allowed to decline whereupon DP continued to load until it got to the Waves package where the authorization prompt also popped up. However I could not get past this screen by declining the authorization to get the rest of DP to load (I use neither Mach 5 or Waves plugs in the project I wanted to work on). My ilock was green-lighted and apparently working, but I am wondering since both Mach 5 and Waves authorization failed if it could be an ilock problem. (I know I'm barely functional with all this stuff, but at least I keep trying, right?)

I would really appreciate some typical earth-shattering historic wisdom from you guys.

Go to iLok.com and see if it recognizes your iLok. If it does, check if it sees all of the proper auths on it.
