    Hi All,

    I've downloaded the cracked version of Pro Tools 9 for Mac, that is: AVID.Protools.9.0.Full.Install.incl.Loader.crack.1.1
    And I'm getting the famous occasional iLok error query: "Error, missing iLok authorization for "Pro Tools 9" Please insert the necessary iLok to continue"

    What is the recommended procedure for fixing this?

    Please help!

    Hi,

    Try to reinstall the LicenseSupportInstaller.
    But don't install the Ilok License manager.

    It might work.

    Merry Christmas.

    Daisy. :wink:

    Hi,

    Thanks for your reply.
    The LicenseSupportInstaller? What's that? Is it included in the PT9 torrent or is something I should be downloading separately?

    Thanks
    & Merry Xmas

    Hi,

    https://www.ilok.com/ilm.html

    If you download the Ilok License manager from their website the licenseSupportInstaller is part of the download as a DMG file.
    Try to install this and that might fix it.
    Do you have an Ilok key with proper licenses on it?

    I hope that it works for you.

    Merry Xmas

    Daisy :wink:

    Hi. The cracked version of PT9 has that "bug." It seems that the program is looking constantly for iLok validation and the crackers have found a way to skip it or send it to a wild goose chase, but sometimes the crack gets busted.

    There is no fix to that.

    Simply close the program (say yes to saving the changes) and start all over again. After a few hours, you'll get frequent errors. That's when you need to use Tech Support Utility v3 and delete all preferences. It's like a fresh start for PT and you'll be ok for another few hours.

    Merry Xmas.
