Do I have to re-install all my packs after moving from...

Post by johnnyvn » Sun Mar 10, 2013 1:28 am

Do I have to re-install all my packs after moving from the pre-release Beta to the general release of 9? I had loaded up all the packs using the Beta, but now that I've installed the real deal program, none of the packs are showing up.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

if you go and find the Factory library folders which were installed with your beta, and drag those folders to the 'places' area (yes I know it seems wrong) it will alert Live to the mistake it made, and jog its memory.
In other words, it will trigger the Database update.

It's worth checking if your packs are up to date, although that's a bit of a hellish process.

Another Live user is currently writing an auto-updater, which is something Ableton said "would not be needed"
