Hi,

anyone know what is required or what is the best way to transfer my existing sessions that I had created on a WinXP machine in the past to my new G4 Powerbook?

Is there a way for your Windows PC to reccognize the Mac as a "target disk"?

I know there is a way to do that between Macs, but I don't know about cross platform.

The key for writing sessions onto a new disk is the Save Session Copy In... command.

Have you asked at the DUC?

Well, Deirdre, actually it is the other way round. The Mac can "see" my WinXP in the network - I set up a "shared folder" on my WinXP that can be seen from any computer on the network. I haven't tried it the other way around.

Can you use your Mac-run Pro Tools app to open Pro Tools files FROM the PC?

If so, I'll bet you can use the Save Session Copy In... command.
Choose a place within your Mac universe to save the newly-written file.

If you created the sessions with PC/Mac compat. enabled you shouldn't have a problem. If not, just Select all the audio in the track, run Consolidate Selection, then recreate the session on the mac using the audio files that are generated ... it takes about 3 minutes if you have to go that route and is pretty painless... Consolidating the audio just ensures everything lines up.
