Help please kontakt 7.9 and 10

bob909

hi there,i'm sam

i updated my mac os to sonoma 14.5 during my holidays,and when i came back to reload all my plug ins and softwares,everything works but Kontakt and guitar rig 6 don't..

i just update kontakt 7.10 on my mac but it appears black screen with no libraires appearing.I went to préferences and everything is well configured and i don't understand what's going on.the libraries are all selected but nothing happens.

even when i try to go back on 7.8 which was working on my last OS Big sur,it's the same.

i have some stems from ten tracks to send for my job next week and most of the tracks are done with kontakt. does anybody got the solution cause i got an emergency work to do for a tv show next week, and i don't know why there's no way to contact or join native instruments about that..

thanks for those who help me find a solution

best regards

@bob909 I'm not sure, I'm not a Mac representative. I quickly googled and found on this site:

If what's written is true, then that would be MacOS 11 (Big Sur), that would need to be checked with Apple.

Have you tried to install the Guitar Rig veersion I posted? Is it still showing a black window?

What about if you install Kontakt 7.8: KONTAKT 7.8 ? Still comes up with a black window?

Please make sure you give full disk access to Kontakt and Guitar Rig: How to Enable Full Disk Access on macOS

Then try these steps: Kontakt Crashes and Guitar Rig Crashes at Startup

If that doesn't fix the issue, what processor is your iMac? (it's an Intel but it's a bit blurry). Just asking because we've seen the case before. Is this computer officially compatible with Sonoma or did you have to find a workaround to install 14.5 on it? What graphic card is on this iMac and what are your display settings?

hi,

thanks for the answer..

it's a 4GHZ intel core i7 quad core from late 2014

i don't know if he was compatible with sonoma, i drop it to a shop for cleaning it and boost it (Ram and hard disk)

the graphic card is AMD RADEON R9 M290X 2Go..

Thanks for the info. So initial suspicion is confirmed. Sonoma is not supported on your computer:

So they must have worked around it. Unfortunately there is not much that can be done now. You could use Kontakt 6 instead and I believe Guitar Rig 6.3 should also work: GUITAR RIG 6.3
