LACIE drives DO NOT WORK!

hi all, thanks for the help so far! i did everything you all told me to, and guess what, i get the same error. I am running OSX jaguar. 1) i formatted the LaCie d2 80g firewire drive using apple disk utility. i made it into an HFS+. 2) i installed PT 6.01 on my Mac HD 3) In the Window menu I tried to change LaCie 80g from a T to "R" or "P" but it won't allow me...why? "LaCie is not a valid audio playback volume" HELP ME PLEASE! I am about to smash the damn mbox or return it. Thanks abe

please help me DigiDesign! I just dropped hundreds of dollars on your products and none of them work. PLEASE do not tell me to look at the old Lacie postings. I have already done that. None of it helps. I already formatted the drive to HFS+ using Apple Disk Utility. I installed PT6.01 on my mac HD. When I try to designate the LaCie 80g FireWire as "R" or "P" it will not allow the change, saying "LaCie 80g is not an audio playback volume." WHAT MORE CAN I DO? i have done everything and this expensive hardware still will not work. Please help. Again i have: Mbox LaCie d2 80g Firewire with 911 chipset ibook OSX jaguar thanks! abe

First of all, with all due respect... relax. We've all gone through occasional troubleshooting hell (incidentally I just spent the afternoon in the studio with a dead Mac), but it's best to not flood the DUC with multiple posts about the same problem. You won't win any friends that way. Check my reply on your other post and let us know if that works.

sorry i didn't mean to overwhelm the board. i am just frustrated because the equipment just sits there. any solutions are welcome! thanks abe
