Hello good people. I am a music producer and im using a program called protools. Im running this with my new aliminum macbook 350gb internal drive and 4mb ram..(fully loaded).the problem is that it doesn't have a firewire port. and it is recommended that I use firewire when using this program because it reads and writes at such a high volume, that usb harddrives are not compatible.
Well, i tried it anyway but instead of working off the hard drive I copied the file unto the desktop and did my work off of there. But now that im ready to put the stuff back onto my drive it's saying that the drive is now read only. I have NEVER experienced this issue. Can some body tell me why this has happened and what i can do about it?
