I followed the 001 Factory Install Notes for installing the PACE System Files and Factory Plug-Ins. When Pro Tools
launches I can only run the demo versions of the plug-ins. If I click Next to authorize the plug-in, a "Hardware Key
Required" dialog comes up saying that no hardware key can be found.
Which USB port should I plug the iLok into?
What is a License Card?
What is the copy protection scheme for plug-ins on Pro Tools|HD systems?
Is there a way to combine authorizations onto a single iLok to free up a USB port?
When I install the iLok Extensions, using the InterLok Extensions Installer, I get this message "An error occurred while
trying to download the file."
When authorizing the Bomb Factory plug-ins in the Digi 001 Factory Bundle: There is no "GSM" chip or "License Card"
for the USB iLock SmartKey that comes with the Digi 001 Factory Bundle.
What is required for iLok support on Macintosh and Windows?

What is the Digidesign Plug-In Validator?
This is a utility that allows you to check the version of your non-Digidesign plug-ins to determine whether or not
they need to be updated for use with the currently installed version of Pro Tools.
To use the Digidesign Plug-In Validator:
Launch the "Digidesign Plug-In Validator" application located in your Pro Tools Utilities folder. If any of your non-
Digidesign plug-ins have not been updated, they will be listed in the display window. Please visit the Web site for
the manufacturer of any affected plug-ins and download the update (if available), or ask the manufacturer when
one will be available.
This utility was originally introduced with Pro Tools 6.2.2 due to a PACE copy protection bug. Some users experience
instability and/or crashes when launching Pro Tools, opening a session, or dismissing a trial-period dialog if any
Pace-wrapped third party plug-ins are installed. The fix for this bug is in the latest PACE drivers included and
installed automatically within the Pro Tools software installer. Updates to all plug-ins are also necessary to prevent
instability and/or crashes. All plug-ins supplied with the Pro Tools 6.2.3 installer have been fixed. Even if you do not
have updates for all your plug-ins, instability would only occur immediately after adding or removing a plug-in from
your Pro Tools Plug-Ins folder. After the first crash and subsequent reboot, you should not see any further
problems, unless you then add or remove plug-ins from the Plug-Ins folder.
