error when launching pro tools: ''not valid 64 bit''

[bradp015]

Im running a non approved config Pro Tools 11 on mac 10.12.6. I understand this is not on the compato list and will have errors and issues. I understand I should upgrade my system and get a compato DAW configuration.
That said, anyone ever come across this error after installing the latest free BC plug ins?
Im running this same config on another 2012 macpro and the BC plugs work fine. Although the plugs were installed when the mac OS was older.

Any idea's-work arounds appreciated!

thanks

That's odd. It looks like the plug-ins binaries are corrupted. I guess you may want to try to re-install the plug-ins in case it fixes the issue. BTW which version of Pro Tools 11 are you running? Is it the latest update?

Hi Blue,
Wow thank you for your help!!! Im running the latest ( i think) of pt 11.3.2. I also have it (HD) at the studio on mac 10.12.6, runs great so far. I have the BC free plugs (and love em BTW) and they run great too!
So I copied the plugs from the studio and popped them on the home rig, which has the same versions of pt and OS. The BC version is 1.0 though, so an older version than what I installed from the BC download I just did last week. Voila! BC is working. So must be something in the new versions of BC free. ???
Thank you so much for replying... I know im running a non compato system and usually you wont get much in way of help!
All the best to you... BC is awesome! Ill be purchasing something from BC soon bc of you!

I had the same problem when I upgraded my PT 12 HD rig to PT ultimate. I ended up upgrading/buying everything to the latest versions

Whenever you upgrade to a newer MacOS (since Catalina), you indeed need the latest versions because of Apple's new "security" requirements.
