Maschine 3 library disappeared and won't rescan
My Maschine 3 library randomly disappeared. I tried reinstalling and rescanning the Maschine Central library, but it still won't show. Does this happen often? What can I do to fix this?

Should I try reinstalling the Maschine 3 DAW?
Might not hurt but be sure to use latest version of the Native Access for your OS .

Did that include removing the library completely ? : How to Uninstall Native Instruments Software from a Mac Computer , then reboot and then re-install ?
And did you reset the Maschine database ? : Reinitializing the Komplete Kontrol / Maschine Database

Have you given full disk access ? : ALL NI apps including NTKDaemon must have full disk access. : How to Enable Full Disk Access on macOS

All NI apps have full disk access. The central library worked fine on Maschine 3 for a few months, but won't load now. All sounds and sampels are still intact in the same folders. It won't let me delete the library from here. Rescanning does nothing either.

From your screenshot, it looks like your Maschine Central Library is installed on your "Documents" folder which is not the correct location to store NI library and expansion contents, and you should never use that location for NI installed contents. The default location is "/Users/Shared/Native Instruments", and you need to use Native Access to relocate and set the new location for you if you manually moved Maschine Central Library.

Did that, but my sample library still won't load. If I go to Files, I can see and load the samples into groups manually, but that will be painful.
Gonna try reinitializing the Maschine database next. If that doesn't work, I'll try reinstalling. Really hope either works 🤞

I have machine 2 and machine 3.
I have the whole library on an external SSD. It works perfectly with machine 2.
It doesn't work in machine 3. Maschine 3 doesn't access the data on the external SSD. The file management seems a bit difficult to me. Adjusting the path to the library is useless here. This will be ignoredAny Idea?

Is your external SSD volume name "ohne titel" or "ohne titel 1"? If it is supposed to be "ohne titel", then some time back when you install and run Maschine 3 for the first time, your external SSD was unproperly ejected during a prior computer sleep. My suggestion is that next time when you find missing library samples, quit all apps, reboot your computer and try again.
What you can do right now to resolve your issue is to quit all apps and reboot your computer. When macOS Desktop comes up, verify your external SSD is still named as "ohne titel", run Maschine 2 app to check that your projects can still access the library samples on the external SSD, and then quit Maschine 2 app.
Visit the NI Support article on Reinitializing the Komplete Kontrol / Maschine Database — make sure to choose the "Maschine 3" folder! After completing the procedure, run Maschine 3 app and let it do its scanning and updating the libraries locations. Let us know if this helps.
