Library Content not found error after reformatting drive

Broni Stevoni

Hello! I recently reformated my external ssd drive to Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled) and copied all of my libraries over, and they all work fine, except for one (Cinestrings core). I get a message that the library content could not be found and when I relocate it within Kontakt, nothing happens. It shows within native access that it's fully installed and ready to go. The weird thing is I can load the individual instruments from the files and database menu. I have tried reinstalling the library and got the same result. I have also given both Kontakt and Native Access full disk access in settings. I'm running Kontakt player on a 2020 Mac M1 Mini version 12.6. Hope this can get solved soon!

@Jeremy_NI I FIXED IT!!!!

The file it was missing was CineStrings CORE.nicnt. The one installed had a lowercase s in strings. I renamed it to match and BAM! It worked! Thanks so much!

Hey @Broni Stevoni I'd recommend uninstalling the library as explained here: How to Uninstall Native Instruments Software from a Mac Computer

Then install the library from scratch. It also might be worth trying with Native Access 2: https://www.native-instruments.com/en/specials/native-access-2/

@Jeremy_NI Thanks for the response!

I installed native access 2 and redownloaded the software. Unfortunately, it gave the same result with the library not found error. I attempted to locate the library to where it is installed, but nothing happened again.

Thanks again!

For those with OCD, they will cringe at the inconsistency of capitalizing of the instrument section names. :)

@Broni Stevoni Thanks for the update! I didn't think about that one, that happened for other libraries in the past.
