Stray Cats Collection Max for Live not showing up

Post by Jemusic » Wed Apr 08, 2020 9:45 pm

I cant seem to find the free Stray Cats for Live collection. I do have Live 10.1.9 installed but no sign of this particular collection. I have re-installed Max For Live Essentials as well and still no go. Do I need to re-install 10.1.9 again?

Yes I do mean Max for Cats. Any ideas though on how you got it to work? You cannot even contact Ableton support right now. They are probably overwhelmed.

I believe that I had to go to my account on the Ableton website and download it. After doing so it showed up as being available for download in Live’s browser the next time I restarted Live even though I had not installed the pack I had downloaded earlier. I believe that Live checks for licensed packs on app launch, and only on launch, but once licensed through your account page it should probably (maybe) show up.

I hope that helps…. It looks to be a fun pack to play with.

Update: The download button has been greyed out for me all this time but suddenly it appeared Blue and it downloaded and installed fine. Thanks for the help though from others.
