Top Issues in SONAR X71
User Account Control and SONAR installer
To install SONAR in Windows XP Professional and Home Edition , Windows Vista or Windows 7, you must be logged
in as a user with administrative privileges. In Windows Vista or Windows 7, you may install from any account, but you
will be prompted to elevate your privileges when the installer is launched.
Once the product has been installed, it may be run from any account without the need for administrative privileges.
Disable Anti-Virus/Spyware Software
Please disable any anti-virus or spyware software before installing SONAR.
Utilities such as "Spyware Doctor" have
been known to interfere with the SONAR installation. Such utilities need not be uninstalled or removed from your
system, only temporarily disabled.
Backwards Compatibility
SONAR X1 can load projects from any previous versions of SONAR, but projects that are saved in SONAR X1 cannot be
re-opened in SONAR 1.x or SONAR 2.x. In case you need to open a pre-SONAR X1 project in an earlier version of
SONAR, it is recommended that you always create a backup copy of the original project before you re-save the project in
SONAR X1.
Project files saved in SONAR X1 may appear to be missing automation data when opened in an earlier version of
SONAR.
To resolve this click the dropdown arrow next to the envelope tool in the Track view toolbar to display the
Envelope Options menu. Choose Show All Envelopes. For more information see the online help section 'Showing or
Hiding Envelopes' included with the previous version of SONAR
