Hi,

I am currently testing the Wave Arts plug-ins and I get a dialog ‘Could not create new User preset file’ whenever I am entering the plug-ins.
My setup:
Protools LE 7.1.1 on Macbook Pro Intel
MacOSX 10.4.8
Wave Arts 5.2.2.
Plug-ins are installed using an adminstrator account, but I use a normal (non-administrative) account to run Protools.
I think the plug-in is trying to save a file in a read-only place. But where does it want to write?

Regards

We are working on getting permissions to work better with non-admin accounts in the next Power Suite update, but in the meantime you can do this:

1) Open the Terminal application.

2) Type:

3) then type

to see the list of plug-ins installed.

4) Go into a plug-in folder, for example:

5) then type:

This should allow non-admin accounts to access the presets file.

this can be repeated for each plug-in, so if you now want to go to MasterVerb you can back up a directory and change the permissions with this series of commands:

Hope that helps.
