Hello all.

I know there are more than a few of you that are using NI Komplete (in my case its version 9). Its been working well for me forever now with the library on an external drive, but I got a new macbook... ha, that was my first mistake....

I installed and authorized Komplete 9 on this new machine and things are looking good, Kontakt and Battery instruments are all there, it's seeing my external drive just fine... that's usually the hangup i find w this sort of migration to a new machine. The issue is with Reaktor. Included in Komplete is Monark and Prism and a few other things. I can launch them from my external with no problem, here is the catch. NI has a pop-up screen that says the instruments arent authorized and I need to run Service Center.

Service Center pops up, i press authorize, and I'm able to use the ensemble in question, so its an annoyance more than anything..

BUT what happens when I am not online and want to run these instruments?? I'll not be able to use these things....

I've sent a support request to NI but I thought I would ask here.

Any help is appreciated!

To follow up.

Apparently Battery and Kontakt play nice with moving the auth's over to a new computer but the preference list that Reaktor uses doesn't include a path the the authorization the way it does for Battery or Kontakt.

In order to get my Reaktor parts sorted out I'll need to download and instal Komplete 9 again and install the Reaktor content to my native drive and authorize from there.

(man it helps to have friends that work at NI, so many product support headaches averted)

Bit inconvenient.

I dread the day that I'll move to a new computer. It'll be few days of grief.

its a pain but new Macbook is SO speedy. (: SSD and 16gigs of ram is a pretty significant feeling upgrade from my old laptop.

I've been only installing things as needed so its been "bite sized chunks". The up-side is my old machine is still trucking along so if i have sessions that dont want to play nice on the new comp i can at least launch the sessions and bounce audio to transfer over.
