    Maybe he’s talking about 10 and HD or HDX?

    Looking at Avid’s website, no Pro Tools version or Avid/M-Audio interface is officially qualified for OSX8. Some users on the Avid forum say all is well, but most have issues. I get pops, so can’t really use Pro Tools at the moment. Kudos to those who have success.

    Craig,

    No it’s not a gatekeeper issue. Adam found a way round it but without the little hack the installers don’t work. The software works if you have them already installed.

    These days, most have just dived in and use Avid beyond its tight required grip.
    MC/Symphony is just as buggy at required OS/Hardware stage.

    Just a badly written installer so it seems. Looking for the old OS with no assumption that it would ever be updated nor anticipating they’d need to revise the installer for a new OS. Sometimes I wonder if the camera manufacturers actually understand that people use their products with computers, NLEs, OSs.

    For me (your mileage may vary) 10.8 seems like one of the more stable updates.

    Lion (10.7) was a nightmare when I updated. The MBP was at Apple for two full days while they tried to fix what happened. I was informed that I was not alone, that others had the same problem. The sad part was that I waited until 10.7.2 to update.

    No issues with Mountain Lion, other than certain programs requiring updates… which is nothing new.
