    please can someone help me?
    I have a large Kontakt library that when added in Kontakt 5.6 or 5.6.6 they stick , the problem is when I load up Kontakt 5.6.8 a large amount of these libraries just disappear!
    then when I go back to 5.6.6 all the tabs are out of order.
    thanks in advance

    Hi guys.

    I have a problem that some LIBRARIES are DUPLICATED.

    With NOSTALGIA. If I delete one copy, both copies are deleted.
    With VINTAGE D. If I delete one copy, it is deleted, but the next time it starts, the second one again appears.

    Kontakt ver. 5.5.1

    What could be the problem? How can this be remedied?

    Hi,

    I am hoping someone can help with a codesign issue. I am having Reaktor crashing Logic when opened via Komplete. Looks like a similar issue to the Kontakt crashing logic before you do the codesign thing.

    I've tried to run the command against the Reaktor .vst and .component but unfortunately i get an error that I have no idea what to do with it. And after some google, I realize i have no clue what I'm doing.

    The error
    $ sudo codesign -f -s - /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/Reaktor\ 6.component/Contents/MacOS/Reaktor\ 6
    /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/Reaktor 6.component/Contents/MacOS/Reaktor 6: replacing existing signature
    /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/Reaktor 6.component/Contents/MacOS/Reaktor 6: unsealed contents present in the bundle root

    $ sudo codesign -f -s - /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/Reaktor\ 6.vst/Contents/MacOS/Reaktor\ 6
    /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/Reaktor 6.vst/Contents/MacOS/Reaktor 6: replacing existing signature
    /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/Reaktor 6.vst/Contents/MacOS/Reaktor 6: unsealed contents present in the bundle root

    Any help would be appreciated.

    So no new new ideas on the codesign error and getting Kontakt/Reaktor to work with komplete in logic?

    Not sure what you mean.

    Hey Koschke,

    Are you able to say what packages you downloaded for the codesign? Unfortunately the I'm a Win person and only use OSX for music.

    Has anyone had issues with Spitfire audio Albion III, IV, and V where the player is loaded but the samples are in purge mode constantly? Where it is RED and does not load any of the samples? I have had it work before but I cannot remember what I did to fix it.

    Hello one and all, I am new here and I can see there is an amazing amount of knowledge so can you help?
    I have looked through this thread but I have not seen the solution to my problem.
    I upgraded Kontakt to K 5 v5.7.3, added 5.6 to kontakt folder and installed NA. Since doing this Kontakt doesnt save the added libraries? I can install on the standalone and they work just fine however as soon as I shut down kontakt and reopen they are gone? I have looked in Preferences and the .plist are being written but no xml in service centre but I guess that is down to NA? What else can I do? I have used Batchmod and reset permissions. I am on OSx 10.13.4 but this issue was happening before I updated the OS.
    Thanks for reading.

    I'm getting the same issue, except I get that message only when I'm trying to add a new library from the file manager. From what I'm reading it has to do with something in native access. I hope this gets fixed and someone can help us.

    Check Permission for Service Center folder (/Library/Application Support/Native Instruments/Service Center)
    Looks like there's no Admin rw so that .xml files cannot be written. Thats why K libraries cannot stick at relaunch.

    HI, how do you remove libraries from Kontakt? If I used 5.6.0 standalone to add the libraries, only some of them stick but some of them dont appear. But they do appear once you open Ableton and Kontakt 6.0.3. So because many of them dont show in the standalone app, how do I remove them?

    I can only hide them in 6.0.3 in Ableton and anything else it wants me to do through native access

    Any ideas? Thanks

    Look into what folder the gui files are stored in for ver 5 and then try to find the appropriate folder for ver 6. They may need to go in a different folder. Just copy them in and test till you figure it out.

    you need to copy the ARC folder from:
    hard disk > Library > Application Support > Native Instruments > Kontakt 5 > pictures
    to:
    hard disk > Library > Application Support > Native Instruments > Kontakt > pictures

    yeah, for some reason, there was no "pictures" folder in the kontakt (kontakt 6) folder,

    so I copied the "pictures" folder from kontakt 5 to the kontakt (6) one, and it shows up.

    thx guys
