Unmounting a removable drive from the workspace prevents subsequent drives from being mounted.
Unmounting a removable drive from the workspace will prevent any subsequent drives from being mounted in the workspace, even though these subsequent drives will show up in the Finder. The workaround is to restart Pro Tools. After Pro Tools has launched, the drives will appear in the workspace.

Taken from the Read Me for Pro Tools v6.9.2 (TDM and LE) for Mac. (Item # 61717) [Page View]

With the introduction of Pro Tools 6.6 and 6.9 on OS X, users of some third party storage area networks (SAN) are no longer able to record or playback to SAN volumes from within Pro Tools. Specifically, with some SANs, it is not possible to designate a SAN volume as playback or record from the Workspace Browser.
This problem affected only OS X versions of Pro Tools 6.6 and 6.9. (Pro Tools 6.7 on OS X was unaffected as are Windows XP versions.) Though third party SANs are not officially supported, this problem has now been solved, and the following releases will restore playback/record functionality with affected SANs:

- Pro Tools TDM 6.9.2 or Pro Tools LE 6.9.2 for OS X 10.4.x
- Pro Tools TDM 6.9.1 for OS X 10.3.8
- Pro Tools LE users on OS X 10.3.8 can either use Pro Tools LE 6.7 or upgrade to OS X 10.4 and use Pro Tools LE 6.9.2

(Note: Since third party SANs are not officially supported, Digidesign Customer Support will not be able to provide support for issues associated with SANs.)

The change in 6.9.1 and 6.9.2 does not resolve incompatibility with Apple’s Xsan. Pro Tools is still incompatible with Xsan.

When I select any of the Tempo Operations options from the MIDI list in Pro Tools v6.7 or later, the apply button is "grayed" out.
You must specify a length for the tempo operation to occur. If the start and the end time have the same value, the apply button will be "grayed" out. Changing either the start or end value will cause the apply button to become active.

After unmounting my firewire hard drive from Pro Tools' Workspace Browser, I can not mount my FW drive.
The problem occurs because unmounting from the workspace causes the drive to lose it's assigned letter. To solve:
1) Right click on My Computer > Manage > Disk Management.
2) Right click on the drive > "Change Drive Letter and Paths"
3) Click Add
4) Assign the Following Drive Letter (choose a letter from the pull down menu). The drive should now mount and be usable.

Note: This does not result in data loss of any kind.

PRO TOOLS TIP: Tuning Up Windows Systems
From the May 2005 DigiNews

Tuning Up Windows Systems

A slow-running computer or crash is enough to turn the most mild-mannered personality into a whirling dervish of mental duress and all-around crabbiness. You can avoid the aggravation and make your computer much more lovable with a simple tune-up.

Joel Hagge, a Pro Tools LE specialist in Digidesign's sterling Tech Support department, explains how to maximize computer performance and keep the ol' blood pressure low by tuning up Windows systems. You may be running unnecessary programs and processes that can result in sluggish Pro Tools performance and those annoying buffer error messages.
