So firstly I have no issues running the instruments and they install just fine with the Kontakt Library Utility. They work perfectly fine on the DAW when I use the "load" function to specifically select an instrument to use from a library.

However, I find it hard to use on larger libraries that requires me to constantly switch between instrument patches so I'd love to not use the "load/load recent" and have it listed on the Kontakt app already itself which is supposed to be the norm on Kontakt.

Issue is my libraries show up with an error saying that "Library not found. Click 'Manage Libraries' to set the content via Native Access.". I'm not sure if I should actually download legitimate Native Access? But I do need it to show up with the list of instruments for ease of use. Here's what it looks like on my Kontakt:



And here's what the "Check for anomalies" in the Kontakt LIbrary Utility say:

All your Service Center XMLs seem to conform to XML standards. Any possible tag errors or missing tags have been corrected.


• None or your Service Center XML files have SNPID values of "000"


• None of your Main library plist files are missing.


The following Main preferences file does not contain a valid path to its Kontakt library folder :

• Swing More! - Couldn't convert te Mac native path to a valid POSIX path.• Joshua Bell Violin - Couldn't convert te Mac native path to a valid POSIX path.• East Asia path invalid

This is very odd, as Kontakt relies on this path to know where your library is stored. Kontakt is very likely reporting that it can't find your library folder.



The following Main preferences file does not contain an SNPID number :

• East Asia main prefs file has no SNPID

This is an error for a library that you installed yourself using KLU or other such methods. Correct it if you wish, but so long as the plist file itself is not corrupt (… and it(they) seem(s) OK to me!), the Main preferences file can happily live without an SNPID number. Only the HU and JDX keys are essential and should be present and identicel in both files.

The Main library prefs file should contain the same SNPID number (if present), as the NICNT file in your library folder and the XML file in the Service Center folder. The IDs should be unique to each library.

Some libraries however, installed from an installer package (NI "Solo Boy Soloists" for instance), install a Main preferences file that has no SNPID number! Its absence poses no problem.

The following User Library files have ranking position numbers of "0" :

• Swing More!

• Joshua Bell Violin

• East Asia

This is not an error as such. It just means that your libraries are not (or only partially) sorted in a particular order. It's your choice.


The following NICNT files' SNPID numbers differ from the Service Center ones :

• Swing More! NICNT has an SNPID number () different to that of the Service Center XML file (024) .

• Swing More! NICNT has an SNPID number () different to that of the Main library preferences file (024) .

• Joshua Bell Violin NICNT has an SNPID number () different to that of the Service Center XML file (P10) .

• Joshua Bell Violin NICNT has an SNPID number () different to that of the Main library preferences file (P10) .

• East Asia NICNT has an SNPID number () different to that of the Service Center XML file (K11) .

This is rather exceptional as normally, all SNPIDs of a library are the same in the NICNT file as in both the Service Center file and (if present) the main preferences file.

This does not necessarily mean that your library won't load, but would definately be worth checking if it doesn't.



I cannot find library folders for the following libraries :

I don't have the path to the •

Spoiler

Swing More! library folder!

I don't have the path to the • Joshua Bell Violin library folder!

Thank you for reading and I will be waiting for an answer no matter how long.

 

NEVERMIND I FOUND THE ANSWER. Just need to relink the libraries THEN reboot your macOS! The issue was

"The following Main preferences file does not contain a valid path to its Kontakt library folder :

• Swing More! - Couldn't convert te Mac native path to a valid POSIX path.• Joshua Bell Violin - Couldn't convert te Mac native path to a valid POSIX path."

It was using Mac native path instead of idk. So yeah, not deleting in case anyone else experiences this issue since there doesn't seem to be anything online helpful regarding this.

 

so was this from you moving the libraries? so you just had to relink them?

 

I never moved them until I came across this issue. That's one of the first things I did, along with removing/reinstalling from the old/new location.

 

Cool, glad you got sussed out. And yeah, it also cool you left your solution up for people who may experience this problem in the future.
