Personally, I would do a Video Mixdown of the sequence, and choose "Apple
ProRes MXF" from the Resolution pop-up.

Transcoding the sequence will clutter up your sequences bin with lots of new
master clips.

Works here in Media Composer 6.0.3. I believe that the option to use ProRes
within Avid began with MC 6.0. I do not recall it being in MC 5.5.

Dare I ask: Are you on a Mac or Windows?

If you are on Windows, then the ProRes "codecs" from Apple are decode-only.

If you are on a Mac, it should be located in [Macintosh HD] > Library >
QuickTime > AppleProResCodec.component
