I have just bought the kontact but the interface looks different than in the manual and in demo video's. what am I missing or did wrong?
Nothing wrong. Your version is current and the documentation is not. Simple as that.
All the stuff you remember from Kontakt v6 etc is under those new textual menu items
VP
but I see in the demos(whats new in Kontakt7) and the manual the small icons library, file, options……

Meaning the pictures in the documentation is from the previous version of Kontakt and Kontakt 7 does not have the same icons .
