Hy everyone,

I have Kontakt 7.4.2 on MacOS Catalina v. 10.15.7. Today I updated Kontakt Factory Library 2 to version 1.3.0 after installing I realized that it only works in Kontakt 7.6 (I have Kontakt 7.4.2) My question is how do I reinstall the previous version that works on my computer? or, What is the best solution?

Thank you.

    I have the same problem with Noire, Session Guitarist - Electric Mint and Ashlight. I hope they’re working hard to solve this issue ASAP. Fingers crossed 🤞🏻

    Hello, I have the same issue... I just upgraded my Noire VST via Native Access to the latest version and now it doesn't work anymore in Kontakt 7 Player in version 7.4.2.

    It says on the latest version of Noire VST that it needs 7.6 Kontakt version but the NA software doesn't tell me that there is an update available.

    I tried installing the link above that you put it doesn't work.

    How could I resolve this please ?

    Thank you in advance

    It appears that Kontakt 7.6 requires MacOS 13 (Big Sur) or later. This is being discussed on many app forums.

    Thank you for your answer @MHalloran :)

    I had a check on my side and I cannot upgrade my Mac OS to Big Sur because it is too old (mid 2012 macbook pro)... So I was wondering, is it possible to downgrade my version of Noire VST in order to make it work back please ? @Jeremy_NI


    Thanks you !

    Yes, it is possible to downgrade. You have to reinstall the previous version of Noire for Catalina, that's all. Hopefully someone can provide you with the dmg file. Good luck.

    Thanks @riucar

    It is good normally, I have found this link after searching on the forum:

    https://community.native-instruments.com/discussion/17039/previous-versions-of-recently-updated-kontakt-libraries-compatibility-with-k6-older-libraries

    It contains all previous versions of kontakt VSTs

    Hello, where can I find the download links for current versions of libraries? It would be good If we could download them from a link in a browser instead of from Native Access (then we can use download manager extension from the browser!) is there a list of links for the current versions too?

    @channelorangutan No, since they are available in Native Access, these are not available.

    Hi, I have just had the same issue happen and am downloading the older version of Factory Library now. Do I need to delete the updated version before installing the old one? Thanks! Edit: just went for it and it was fine, thank god. Kind of furious there is no warning in Native Access that the version you are about to install is incompatible with your operating system.

    Hi,

    I've got the same situation. I installed the KFL2 1.2.0, but it didn't help. I also tested removing the contents in the KFL2 folder. The install says it was complete, but it didn't copy anything to the folder. The KFL2 is on a ext drive if that matters.

    I have the smae problem with my MacBook Pro OS 10.15.7 and Piano Noire will not play on Kontakt 7.4, I tried to install the Kontakt Library 2 but my Mac is not allowing me to do so. Is there a work around o install Library 2 on my Mac or is there an earlier version of Piano Noire available which works with Kontakt 7.4?
