Subject:ACID Pro 6 and Windows 7 64-bit

I'm updating my gear and was hoping to be able to still use ACID on Win 7.
The recommended .NET Framework version and Service Pack will not run on Win 7.

Anyone have any knowledge if ACID 6 is toast on Win 7?

Thx,
Rick

You should be able to continue to use ACID Pro 6.0d on your Windows 7 64-bit computer.

The problem with ACID Pro 6.0 on Windows 7 is that Microsoft doesn't support the version of SQL Desktop Engine that Sony used for the Media Manager 2.2 that is shipped with ACID Pro 6.0. This is a Microsoft incompatibility not a Sony incompatibility but unfortunately it causes Sony's software to fail.

What you need to do is download Media Manager 2.4 from the Sony web site and install that instead. It should work fine with ACID Pro 6.0d.

Thanks, Johnny. Will install Media Manager 2.4.

Do you have a working link to ACID Pro 6.0d? The one I found is not working:

The last version I saved a copy of was 6.0b.

Thx again!
