Hey Slau, Not funny when that happens! Anyhow, I just check that exist a link
named language English.
Could it be in German?! I believe translating Language to German it is
Sprache. Hope that help's.
Concerning navegating the Avid produts webpage with Voice Over isnt so straight
forward... I know the feeling.
But, It seems that pressing that Show button will show a produts chart, the
top to botton topics are:
Pro Tools versions, Drivers, plugins, demos and legacy.
Most have 3 links , one for windows, Mac and a PDF read me file.
Pressing it once will starts downloading straight away, find them at Mac sistem
download folder.
Getting the ride: Now that I've got:
Pro Tools 12.5.2;
First Air effects bundle 12.0;
First Instruments bundle 12.0;.
Xpanded 12.0;
Am I forgetting any stuff?
So, concerning a clean PT updating procedures, Am I correct thinking that
ProTools 12.5.2 instaler will wipe out version 11.3?
Anyway it will be fine all my PT personal preferences?
Can I folow the above list instalation order? Or exist a better recommended
order?
No need to define nothing else regarding iLock and so on is that correct?
Well, it's better to ask and do it right, agree?
Thanks in advance,

Hey guys,
On the Mac, in that area where you see the word “show,” my recollection is
that you have to interact with it. Once you interact, that word “show” becomes
a clickable link and then it expands to show all of the products. You can
download each item but you wouldn’t necessarily know whether it’s newer than
the versions of the various products you have installed already. That’s where
the App Manager does seem to work better. That said, yeah, for Pro Tools
versions, it’s pretty straight-forward to just download from the Avid site.
BTW, I can’t seem to login to my account from my laptop because the entire
site, even avid.com, is in German and I can’t figure out how to change it. LOL
Anyway, fun times.

Many thanks Phil, I was with you all the way, but it was when I clicked
'show' that nothing appeared to happen, and I seemed to be going round
in circles. It's really helpful though for knowing what to try next time.
Best,
Peter

Log-in to your Avid account. Then click on "My Products" and find the
heading that says:
"My products and subscriptions"
Then you will find what subscriptions you have that are active then
click
on the heading that says:
"Product Details and Download Links."
Just below that heading is a link that says:
"Show"
Click on the "Show" link and you should then see all of your Pro Tools
latest updates below as links.

Hi All,
It seems to me that, compared with updating ProTools, actually using it is
a
piece of cake. Seriously, I used to feel pretty patient and resourceful
when it came to navigating websites and update procedures, but I must be
missing something here.
I've wasted hours trying to understand the Avid site. I signed in and
found
"my products and subscriptions", but no way could I find the 12.5.2
upgrade.
Of course when I asked a sighted person for help they just clicked on it
straight away. My question is, if you are one of those who is just
merrily
updating whenever a new update comes out, do you have a relatively simple
procedure that you could explain? And what, pray, is the Avid Application
manager doing? Slau did say that the latest version is accessible but all
it ever seems to do here is upgrade itself, and certainly not give me
ProTools Updates. Perhaps I'm losing the plot but please, does anyone
else
share my mystification about actually finding and downloading the updates,
and can someone take pity and put me out of my misery for next time?
Best,
Peter

And here I am having just updated to 12.5.2 yesterday... :). For some
reason
I am one of those folks who lags when it comes to updates. If I feel like
something is running well, I seem to hold off. Never updated my OS to El
Capitan. Not even on my mac which I am not running ProTools on. Though I
am
always anxious to see what updates have in store. As well I feel like
12.5.2
seems to load quicker and run more efficiently. I should not have waited
so
long to update. Guess I'm just like one of those birds you see on a
telephone wire. He finds a spot and feels good about it and just sits
there
LOL. That's me.

Hi Rui,
I have Yosemite running on the studio Mac Mini and El Capitan running on a
Mac Book Pro. The latest version of El Cap is technically not supported by
Pro Tools but it does work. To me, the issue of El Cap is more of
voiceOver
sometimes cutting out and being unresponsive to the point where I need to
unload and load it twice in a row in order for it to come back speaking.
To
be fair, I haven't seen that behavior in Pro Tools specifically but I'm
not
using that machine for day-to-day work so I can't testify to its long-term
use. In general, however, the latest version will work on both systems and
a
new version is expected pretty soon and I think it'll support the current
version of El Capitan. Maybe others will chime in with any other
observations.

Hi folks, this is Rui, with deserved university holidays! grin .
Back to Pro Tools: I have until 30 august to use a ProTools free update.
My actual setup is Mac Pro 6 core, with Yosemite and ProTools 11
something.
Use a Maudio Profire 2626 and Avid 11Rack interfaces plus BCF 2000
control
surface. all works a charme, I only use it for music production therefore
I
dont mind to stay with Yosemite, what are your thoughts?
And, concerning ProTools wich version do you recommend? Is it ok to
install
the most recent one?
