How do you update Kontakt to 7.7? ....

Native Access says I'm up-to-date, but I have 7.6 and some sounds won't load (Analog Dreams and a few others)

Studio_Tone

Thanks.... I did get Kontakt updated to current by uninstalling and re-installing native access..... which wasn't very easy with the "please grant permission to Native Access to install dependencies" ???...(found a patch to solve that issue)..... thanks to all for the help!

Try to uninstall Native Access, then install it again on NI site (make sure you are logged on into your acc btw).

Then try to update Kontakt again.

Let me know if it worked.

Studio_Tone

Thanks! ... I will try that..... but pardon my ignorance, do you know if I will then have to re-install all of my NI plug-ins/libraries.... I have quite a few of them...

@Studio_Tone When you open Kontakt in standalone and click on the NI logo, what version does it show?

If it shows 7.6 and you can't find the update for 7.7 in Native Access, please contact my colleagues here: https://bit.ly/NI_support_NA

@Milos Please stop posting answers if you are not sure, it's more confusing than helping.

What is your OS? Generally NA will not serve updates that are not supported by the OS version

Hi. New here and new to Kontakt. I'm attempting to update from 7 to 7.7 but again NI says all updates are complete. Can't install a few instruments that need 7.7. Please help!

Running a iMac with Big Sur.

Thanks!

7.8.1 is the last version compatible with Big Sur, here is the installer: Kontakt 7.8.1

Many Thanks

No such thing as a "upgrade" to 7.10.5.

The "update" from v7.8.1 (to 7.10.5 - which is current) should come down to you normally as long as your OS is current.

Note that you will not get 7.10.5 via Native Access if you are still running Big Sur.

@DRSMITH Kontakt 7.9 requires MacOS 12 as a minimum, as @Vocalpoint said:

DRSMITH
