Hi there,

I've opened a number of older projects (Logic, Live) and Kontakt has failed to load the their respective libraries. When opening an instance of Kontakt some with ask to search for the content (I've moved the location of that library) which is fine. Other instances of Kontakt are opening completely empty and not asking any questions. I generally label my tracks so I know what it was but of course I've lost all the setting within Kontakt. I know this is a fairly common issue with Kontakt but unsure as to how to fix it seeing as its not effecting all instances of Kontakt.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Using latest version of Kontakt 7, Logic etc.

    What's your operating system? Were you using an older version of Kontakt on these oler projects? Were they made on an intel Mac? Is this on a M/Silicon Mac? What library did you move and how?

    Hi Jeremy,

    Thanks for your help and these are great questions. These are very large projects and is not only linked to libraries I have moved. Most of those seem to (slowly) appear and others asked me to relocated the content. Then there are the instances that are completely blank. Yes, these projects were created on an Intel Mac and I'm now on an M1 (OSX 14.5). I was using Kontakt 6 at the time.

    Thanks!

    Ok, then you need to open these projects in Live or Logic in Rosetta mode: How to Open Your DAW Using Rosetta

    Spoke to soon. It has fixed some of the missing libraries but not all.

    Ok, so which ones are missing? Were these libraries moved? If you open Kontakt in standalone, can you see these libraries and load them? What about in Native Access? Do they show as installed? How did you "move" these libraries? Did you use Native Access or did you just move the files?
