Searching for a Location for spitfire

Deva

After the breakdown with cleanmymac I uninstalled everything. Now Spitfire wants a new Location, but always the message: This path is invalid. Please where can I locate Spitfire? Thanks!

Sonoma. Mac does not find a nicest.file… thanks for further help!

Please follow the following Spitfire support page and if necessary contact Spitfire to get the .nicnt file :

The Spitfire is probably something that you need to download from Spitfire and then install or unpack and copy to the location of your choice and then point Native Access to the location using the Locate . Else then what is the location where you put your Spitfire library and have you done all the Mac users must do when using N.I. software ? :

ALL NI apps including NTKDaemon must have full disk access. : How to Enable Full Disk Access on macOS and disks must be of correct format : Notes on Network Drives and Disk Formats

Also then please check that iCloud Private Relay has been turned off : Native Access Error Message: "Download failed" (macOS)

Also then do not use Clean My Mac.

And quote Kymeia : if using Sequoia then N.I. apps must be added to the Local Network

Every Location I suggest does not work. Of course I have done all things to enable NI Installations, I am doing this actually since hours after I had uninstalled everything. But no Location fits for Spitfire, where shall I locate it? Thanks!

Be sure to be using latest version of Native Access for your OS

If you followed all the above advice and it didn't help then please try the additional solutions here : Native Access Error: "Path is invalid" (The "Choose the library folder containing the .nicnt file. This folder must contain the .nicnt file!" and the "Disabling Security Applications")

The library folder must be containing the .nicnt file if it has none then you need to reinstall library and if that still doesn't help then contact Spitfire to get the .nicnt file.

If neither of all the suggested helps then my guess is that there is a problem either with your user privileges or you are using some custom settings.

What is your exact OS version ? , Native Access version ?

So you uninstalled Clean My Mac?

After that you should reinstall Native Access and Kontakt 8, make sure that all has full disk access: How to Enable Full Disk Access on macOS

Did you install your libraries on an external hard drive? What format is the drive? It should be APFS on Mac: Notes on Network Drives and Disk Formats

If none of this helps, please get in touch here: https://bit.ly/NI_support_NA

Please help. I still cannot install spitfire even on a new MacBook Pro. In the Spitfire Audio app there does not appear any button to press for download or installation. When I try via Native access it's always invalid path. Ok I can find a lot of nicnt- files, but shall I click at anyone like play series or guitar rig??? I am really afraid to do so! Please help. Why is this so complicated? Everything else works so good!
