Installing Application Manager Along with Avid
Editing Application
You can get your copy of Application Manager when installing an Avid Editing Application. For
example, when you install Media Composer, Pro Tools, or Sibelius, you are prompted to install
Application Manager along with it. If you have a lower version of Application Manager
installed, it will be overwritten with the current one during installation of the Avid editing
Application.
c
If you already have Application Manager and want to update it, you are highly
recommended not to interrupt the process of installation. Otherwise, your Application
Manager will be corrupted and you will need either to reinstall the Avid Editing
Application that Application Manager came along with, or get Application Manager from
the Avid Download Center
The Application Manager installation process adds a Desktop icon (Windows) or Dock icon
(Mac OS X), and a pointer to your Avid editing application in the Start menu (Windows).
The Application Manager tray icon is always available. So even if you close Application
Manager with the X Close button, it is minimized to the tray, and can be open again by clicking
the tray icon.

When working in the OS Dark mode or using dark settings of the monitor, Application Manager
tray icon can hardly be seen because of its deep purple color. In case of no connection, the icon
is almost invisible unless you place the mouse cursor over the icon or click it.
