Albeton finding samples problem

Is ableton bad at finding samples. even if I select the folder that the missing samples are in it still does not find them. Anybody else getting this happening to them

yes, this is an occasional problem. not that its any consolation but it seems to be fixed in live 7. when searching for missing samples in 6 i just resort to the os search functions.

IMO the main fixes are removing the buttons which screw things up.

I would be very surprised if Live 6 could not find samples if you



1. set the folder they are in (or one higher up in the folder structure), and use the 'search folder' button
2. only enable the 'search near already found' button and NO OTHERS
