I opened a case with Avid, spoke to someone with decent but limited English, who verified that I have the proper generation iLok by asking me to pull it out of the USB and give the #. When I plugged it back in, the error message "magically" went away. Unfortunately a few sessions later, the exact same error message came back and now there is NO WAY to contact someone for support except to PAY $50 for a phone call, or buy a yearly plan for $100 which allows ONE phone call a month! This is a problem with AVID'S software (or hardware, still undetermined if it's the iLok or the software- definitely not my computer).

Highway robbery. I've NEVER bought a product that fails and had to PAY someone to talk about it. Pro Tools 11 is an amazing program, but there is NO ONE with WORSE customer service than Avid's.

Bull. the "live person" procedure only gets you a recording demanding you enter some code. The ONLY thing you can get through the number is a third party "support" operatio in the Phillipines whose operators, qwhile I assume understand English in some literal way, do not understand English well enough to understand any kind of idea beyond the simplest.

I accidentally purchased the $600 Pro Tools 12 and not Pro Tools 12 HD. I've been trying to return for an exchange. Three days already and no one helping me resolve this issue. VERY frustrating. Long hold times and no one to help.

Unbelievable. This is the "Comcast" of the music world. Phone prompts, dead ends, 30 minute hold times. This isn't "Customer Service Success" This is Customer Service Sucks. Say what you will about Apple, but at least they ANSWER THER G'DAMN PHONES!

This is the worst "customer service-centric" site that I have EVER dealt with. Forgive me for saying so.
C'mon gang...after monopolizing the market with a great (even superior) tool, you'd think that you would want to help users become productive contributors to the music scene. I'll bet it will help you sell even more product.
Instead, however, you have crafted the least user-friendly website that exists for the lion's share of the DAW's on the scene today.
I really think the tool is incredibly powerful, but you folks leave a LOT to be desired when it comes to navigating the site for any substantial and material assistance for the product itself. Was that by design?
I want to cuss and use the worst possible expletives but I'm certain even this email from a "commoner" such as myself, will fail on deft ears...am I right? Geez.
My hard drive crashed.
All I want to do is download the same f'n software that I paid all that hard earned money for...
Is there any way that you folks can help me out...at all?? I promise I dont want anything for free...just the product that I paid for...good?
Thanks Brent 1(760)402-4006
