Q: Possible Conflict with FCS

On my Powerbook, Waveburner seems to work fine, but on my MacPro (where I also have FCS installed), Waveburner will not import (or allow drag-and-drop) of any kind of audio file. It hangs and I get the spinning ball and have to force quit.

I have the latest updates of everything on both machines and I've tried deleting preferences. What ever I do, I can't get Waveburner to import an audio file - although it will open older projects created some time ago.

I installed Logic after installing FCS. Could this be the cause? If so, how can I reverse that procedure?

In short, I'm unable to use Waveburner on my MacPro, so please, can anyone throw any suggestion for why this is happening - and how I may fix the problem.

Mac Pro (early 2008) and a PowerBook, Mac OS X (10.6.5), Final Cut & Logic Studio, BM Intensity, Genelec 5.1

    On further investigation, I'm beginning to think the problem may be because the files I'm trying to import into Waveburner were originally saved in iTunes - where track meta data was added. If I open and resave one of these files in Soundtrack Pro, the meta data gets stripped off and then they will import ok. So, is the problem with Waveburner or iTunes?
