    Back when I was insisting on staying on SLeopard myself, I managed to get certain NI things (I tested with like supercharger or something) to work by editing the system .plist before install, but it was a real pita, and there were possible problems,.... So I fear that it is probably not likely unfortunately...

    use pacifist for mac you can simply fix the permissions on the k'ed and then copy over the other k'ed files and it should now work fine.Do not change the vst's or you can go to the application folder and go to the kontakt system file and change everything in there last time i did it on my snow leopard it worked

    hey! i want to use a full kontakt version (5.4.1) on 10.6.8 osx in order to use it with logic pro 9 only, so i can use the orange tree evoultion strawberry library, which requires a full version of kontakt, because it wont work with the kontakt player. i am pretty new to using external libaries in logic and could really need some help.
    i tried to figure out how to bypass the system requirement of the kontakt installer. i got a dmg file of it. with pacifist i can extract the info.plist file from the pkg but cant drag it in back in. i even tried to edit the distribution file of the pkg with flat package editor, but when saving the package, i need another identity to sign it, which is not available.
    i tried the instructions from Mahxie, but it only works when the pkg is "installed", but then only the folders are available and it is not a package anymore. what am i doing wrong?
