I am having trouble accessing one aif file from a drive with media created on Xpress 4.1.1 when I am in Composer 2.8. I am consolidating a sequence from the external harddrive to a new system's local drive. Keep in mind that all the other media consolidated fine. I get the following:

Exception: Disk_Access_Denied, Filename H: \OHFI Mediafiles\120105 RageA01.455CD455CCF46.aif

Does anyone now the fastest way of maybe locating this file and then re-importing it? I appreciate any advice on this.

Correction on my above post. It seems that while my computer and MC 2.8 recognizes the external drive, when I try to play the sequence or any media on the external drive, I get the Exception Disk Access Denied warning.

I guess, then, my question is, how do I get the Avid to "unlock" and grant access to the external drive?

Thanks in advance.

Did you try this?

Your link is coming up dead. Can you retry to send it?

Sorry about that.  Let's try this one:
