Can't believe I've finally stumbled upon this video. Thank you. For months now, I've succumbed to the idea that I will never get to use those once working play series etc instruments until the day I get a new mac! It didn't make any sense to me either, but I didn't challenge it because I knew I was guilty as charged for stringing out an overdue computer hardware upgrade.
Catalina here too. I'll try what you suggested. Thanks for having gone through the lengthy support rigmarole and sharing with us.
😅
I'm just happy that this video has helped so many people. Most likes and comments of any video so far!
Your channel is helping so many people including myself and for that I thank you very much sir !
That's very nice of you to say and makes all the hard work worthwhile
Thank you for this video! I was starting to go crazy trying to figure this out lol. I’m running an M2 and had no idea why I couldn’t load some of the drum instruments.
Yeah It's amazing how many new Mac's are having issues. I thought it was just the older MacOS. Native instruments really need to sort this out
Thanks buddy! got those errors fixed.
Glad this helped you out
Thank you I had no clue to open the .iso file!
Glad it helped you out
Thank you Sooo Much for this video mate ! I have exactly the same prob : too old imac with Catalina and can't upgrade Kontakt to 7 :/
This is quite a very long process but… at least I hope it will work fine ! I also hope Native guys will fix that (a 6.8.1 version ?) because if we have to install everything twice… it will be a real pain in what you know…
Glad it helped and yes NI needs to sort this out for its customers with older Macs.
Hi David thanks for this vid and links even though I've downloaded and installed there are some that are still not working Hypha, Glaze, and Noire is there a fix?
They worked OK on my system so maybe just bin them and try again? This is the only fix info I received from NI.
Software didnt use to be this complex to run on systems thus this is why i would be iffy to spend on something like komplete 14 collectors edition or even a good version just to find out you have to do 100 things to get it to work. And if some daws dont do vst3 or some odd stuff your out of luck...
Hey! I recently shifted some samplea to a new external SSD. When I used one drive to read samplea from, every thing was fine. But since I am using two disks, I have started facing several problems. Libraries load slow, daw crashes and tons of other problems.
Can reading samplea from 2 ssds be a problem?
Hi, well I use one SSD for all my NI instruments and don't have issues but not sure about two. The first thing to check is in Native Access to make sure you have updated the installation path so samples can be found. The other thing you can try in Komplete Kontrol is to try a Batch Resave and update problem Instruments.
You the Goat
You are too kind
To be honest I think this is a disgraceful action from NI.. Love their stuff but I think this is corporate bullshit, not wanting to fix it to force people to buy the newest versions.
Yeah if you look at the comments there are people with brand new M2 Macs having issues as well so not just the old MacOS that's affected.
@@DavidThomCreations I have a’very old’ M1. 😂
PC windows 11 is broken with this software as well.Avoid Native Access like the plague,I fell for the sale ,They know it's buggy as shit,why they had the sale in the first place!@@DavidThomCreations
I have a Win 10 pro 4.2 ghz Alderlake i5 with Komplete 14 Ultimate CE and my damm version of Kontakt 7 is too old to run Modular Icons and Session Guitarist?😀?
Ìm on Windows 10, I5 processor. 32 gig ram. Bought 8dios scoring bundle. Said my kontakt 7 is too old to run it. Then I get installation failed on the latest kontakt 7 I paid extra for.
Hi! So I have a new mac when I try to mount the disc image it says " Disc Image Couldn't Be Opened Couldn't Read File" do you know of any way to fix that? Thank you!
Does this relate to Kontakt in any way?
@@DavidThomCreations Yes! Kontakt 7 is what I’m trying to install
You install Kontakt through Native Access, so the problem would lie there if the install path has not been set up correctly.
Hello, Kontakt 7 works on my M1 Mac, but many of my libraries don't show up in Kontakt. I can see them in my native access, though. Have you ever had this happen to you? Thank you
First thing to try is open Komplete Kontrol go to Preferences then Library and hit Rescan and see if that helps.
I have the same problem, etheral earth, analog dreams and many others have disappeared from my library list on the left. Did you manage to resolve your issue ?
The video was really helpful. Thanks for putting this out including the links and for all the efforts.
Glad you found it useful and sorted it out
i have an issue where it says demo next to my instrument. How do i fix it?
Pay for the full version?
I got Native Access working by enabling the virtual drive enumerator in device manager in Windows 11.
And installing in the default locations before moving to my other drive later.
OK I'm sure someone might find that helpful!
I'm on Windows ten and after buying 8io score bundle, it said my kontakt 7 was too old to run the libraries. Tried updating, update failed. Paid for latest kontackt. Pinched in serial number. Registration successfull. No sign of it in any version of native access. A whole day of getting nowhere after forking out money.
Good morning
Can you tell me the procedure for deleting library from Kontakt 7 on Mac? I really thank you. louis
Not sure what you mean?
I'll explain. I would like to delete a library installed on kontakt. How you do it? I tried with remove in the kontakt window but it doesn't delete. Thank you@@DavidThomCreations
If you open Komplete kontrol and go to preferences I'm sure there is a library section there where you can possibly delete items. Unfortunately you can't do this from Native Access but they are looking to implement this feature
I have kontakt 7, have used it constantly for a year, and suddenly all my libraries say I need to update to newest version of Kontakt. But anything I find on the subject, talks about updating to Kontakt 7, which I've always been on.
Yeah there's a lot of versions of Kontakt 7, I'm on 7.4 but it's up to 7.8 I think. I'm stuck with 7.4 due to my MacOS
Hello David, do you have any Discord servers? I watch this video but doesn't understand what to do. Can someone guide me?
No Discord but not sure what relevance that has? Well I explain exactly what to do in the video and supply the necessary links so not sure what you don't understand?
IIRC, CTRL-click to open "unknown" apps - avoids the Preferences->Security dance.
Cheers for that info
Dang, I’ve got an m1 air with everything up to date and i have the same issue. Sucks to not have access to what you already paid for.
Yeah I'm not sure what's going on with Kontakt but they need to sort it out. Have you tried installing the older versions?
I was getting the "Too old" problem with Noire. I posted a general note above on how I resolved it.
Whenever I try to install Native Access, the loading bar stops halfway, restarts, and shows an error saying that I may not have the right permissions. Can someone help me fix this?
Are you on Mac or PC?
I’m on pc
Hey man since yesterday i found out i have a problem with kontakt 7. So when i open it it says demo/buy/activate. Keep in mind i have komplete 14 standard. So when i press activate it opens native access and i can use it , but then i see some banks are in demo and some are gone like the grandeur and the gentleman for example. So i tried to delete kontakt 7 and now i cant install it again it says installation failed revieuw location. Nothing works i already send emails and ticket to NI
So there is a new Kontakt 7.7 version that came out recently so maybe the demo was for that. Which version did you get with 14 standard. I'm sure NI will sort it out they are just quite slow.
@@DavidThomCreations okay so i fixed it. This are the steps i followed :
1. Install native acces ONE
2. Then you login with your credentials and you should see all products and kontakt 7
3. Download Kontakt 7 again
4. Then download native acces 2 again and it should be fixded
5. Follow steps 1-4
So pretty straight forward then 😂 Honestly Kontakt & NI have become a nightmare, I'm not buying or upgrading any more this year until it's sorted out.
@@DavidThomCreations i honestly dont even understand how this upgrade en crossgrade thing works
I did the process for hybrid keys downloading it from the link but unfortunately i still receive the error message. what am I doing wrong? my version of Kontakt is the 7.4.2
Maybe trying deleting Hybrid Keys completely and try again. Also you can try a batch re save in Komplete Kontrol
@@DavidThomCreations the file I'm downloading from the link is like 50mb while the original on Native access is more in the gigabytes. Are you sure that file is correct?. I did the same for 'Ethereal Earth' and the file I downloaded was 1.5gb. It worked perfectly. What do you mean by batch re save for Komplete Kontrol? Thank you so much
I got a Mac Studio M2 Ultra and it does not open at all
I'm on Intel Mac so can't really help you there but i can't see why it wouldn't work if you're using the latest versions of Kontakt and Native Access.
Kontakt 7 does not work on Mac studio ultra 2
I got everything updated true rosetta 2 etc.. Open logic with rosetta 2 also Kontakt etc so I know as a fact it does not work
Kontakt 7 latest even on latest hardware doesn’t even work either. It introduces glitches and pops. Disgraceful from Ni , here you need to upgrade to our broken version😂
Yeah they don't seem to care about all the negative reviews and comments
Gotta say I've never had so many crashes with a piece of software as I've had with KONTAKT 7. It just been a real disappointment. I really wouldn't recommend this sampler to anyone at this point.
Yeah they're bringing out a new version for Somona so that will probably be useless as well 😂
The more a rely on NI the less I admire it! Too much time wasted
Yeah I'm reluctant to buy any else from NI until I get new Mac
