    I had Nexus 3 working fine. I installed 5 and can't see Libraries. Made a Symbolic link from external drive Nexus Library to Library/ Audio/ Presets/ Refx/ Nexus with zero results.
    The other suggestion from VR is to modify the settings.json file in Shared.
    What line is changed? In Nexus 3 you had Volume/your drive/ etc.
    In 5 what should I put or change? Thanks for help.

    "library_folder": "/Library/Audio/Presets/reFX/NEXUS library",
    "ui": {
    "default-font-size": 20,
    "default-scale": -1.0,
    "default-scale-applelogic": -1.0
    },
    "user_folder": "/Users/Shared/reFX/User Content/nexus",
    "version": "5.1.1"
    }

    when I saw it said "Open Architecture" about v5, I hoped it was in reference to their Librarian. You could just select whatever needed folders in any other plugin. On an external drive, this worked so far. Once you have it seeing your directory structure, you can generally get a better idea of what is going on.

    "library_folder": "/Volumes/external name/NEXUS library"

    in finder go to your nexus content folder, right click on it and press option and copy the folder as pathname, and paste it in the json file

    "library_folder": "/PASTE/THAT/SHIT/HERE",
    "ui":

    No Library Found
    The Library for Nexus isn't installed
    Please use the feFX Cloud app to install it.

    I have 11 Libraries that are nexus 4 on an external drive I have tried symlink and settings.json
