Hi - first post on the forum! Love the software and am keen to become an active community member and learn and discuss more on Live.
Initially, I have a problem though. I'm running Live 7 on a MacBook with external Lacie rugged harddrive (which is where I store all samples and songs). A few days ago I went to open some previously made live sets and all the samples from Live (default loops with the software install from disc) are greyed out & cant be found - only my own additional vocal 'hit' samples appear from the hard-drive are found. I've done an automatic search for the loops and Live can not find them? I've doubled checked the file path and it's correct for the folder of 'Ableton Live Sounds' on my Lacie HD. I've tried changing the sounds location file to the user account internal mac location and back again - but still cannot find the loops. I've tried a manual search but also cannot seem to find the loops?
Now hears my questions..![Store Store](/uploads/1/2/6/5/126509837/318281365.jpg)
1. I'm confident I haven't deleted the whole sample library as the Abelton Live folder on the Lacie HD still indicates 15GB size and the individual drum hits/instruments etc are in the folder - but all the actual loops cannot be found? Where exactly are the loops saved (this would be the default folder within install - as I haven't changed this after install/use?)
3. Worse case scenario is I reinstall all the sounds from the disc (I'm assuming this would solve the problem and I wouldn't have to reinstall actual program as well?!) - if I do this, am I correct in thinking that all the sounds are just in the Ableton Live sound folder (now on the Lacie HD) and I can safely delete this to remove all sounds (or are them additional one on the internal mac HD?) - then reinstall just sounds from disc?
I'm very frustrated and a little confused as to why I can't find link the sounds - any help would be greatly appreciated. I want to get ver 7 back working again before I look at the upgrade to ver 8?! I realise there is a lot of info there - but hopefully somebody has an answer! ? Cheers
I use both Mac and PC with Ableton Live. The Mac is in my studio, and the PC laptop is used for live performance. Vst ableton live 9 mac free update. I can't answer all your questions about compatibility, but I can tell you about the tiny problems I've had. The only real issue with switching back and forth has been with two Native Instru. An installed plug-in is missing in your VST host application or you just wonder where your VST plug-ins (virtual instruments and effects) are located? This article provides detailed information on VST plug-in installation paths on Mac OS X and macOS. Click here to switch to VST plug-in locations on Windows.

2. I wondered if there is a corrupt link for just the samples somehow/somewhere?3.
