[Answered] Importing Wave files from Pro Tools on a Mac

So my instructor gave me some files he made in Pro Tools. I'm noticing something different when I import them compared to other files.
When I import these files they dont come in at the beginning of the track or where my playhead is. Was this intentional and why does it exist? I'm guessing these files have some sort of metadata on them that's making them do this. They all come in at different times on their own tracks.

    They are Broadcast Wav-files which include a time stamp.  In Preferences you can chose whether to import them at timestamp or not.

    SONAR PE 8.5.3, Asus P5B, 2,4 Ghz Dual Core, 4 Gb RAM, GF 7300, EMU 1820, Bluetube Pre  -  Kontakt4, Ozone, Addictive Drums, PSP Mixpack2, Melda Creative Pack, Melodyne Plugin etc.
    The benefit of being a middle aged amateur is the low number of years of frustration ahead of you.

    Uncheck "Always Import Broadcast Waves At Their Timestamp" in Preferences > File > Audio Data
