    I have tried everything: "library_folder": "/Volumes/WD SSD/NEXUS library"
    I have put Libraries in the Library/Audio/Presets/reFX/Nexus Library folder

    Nothing shows up and the Libraries are all 4 and 5.

    Please!! Please Help!!!!

    Please from a Mac guy not a PC guy.

    You have to edit your settings.json file so that it points to the correct locations.

    On an external drive, everything can go in a folder /NEXUS library, at the root of the drive. So /Volumes/drive name/NEXUS library.
    Then go to /Users/Shared/reFX/nexus and edit settings.json, for these 2 lines as needed:

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

    "user_folder": "/Users/Shared/reFX/User Content/nexus"

    Make sure your permissions are correct on the external drive folder.

    Can't people read I said I put all the settings in the settings.json file that's what's showing in the original post.
    It DOES NOT WORK. I have done this many times for older versions of Nexus with no problems.
