    When KK launches, I get duplicate folders in my 'NI Resources' folder. Both the '_DatabaseResources' and 'database' folders are repeated. Is this normal? I recently switched to a new MacBook Pro (MacOS 10.11) and reinstalled KK as well as my Arturia V Collection 5. Now, when switching between a NI and Arturia patch in KK, it takes almost 30 sec to switch to an Arturia patch! Very strange and a big issue when I perform live... No issues with my previous laptop (MacOS 10.10). Any help will be gratefully appreciated.

    I was same as you. I deleted one that include trailing whitespace in folder name. I think it related to past bug of KK or Native Access or ....

    I have the same phenomenon on two Macs. As long as it does no harm I'll just leave them as is.

    I use BlueHarvest to regularly clear out this Apple garbage - but it happens largely because one of my shared drives is FAT 32 formatted (for compatibility reasons). If they were all HFS it wouldn't happen (at least not the _appledouble files, I'd still have a few .icon and .dstore files but they are less problematic)

    All good. The two sets of folders aren't affecting anything after all.
    Turns out the issue I described when switching from NI to Arturia presets is related to my wifi-connected mixer. Arturia presets load quickly if Mac's wifi is off or tuned to internet-enabled wifi; however if connected to the mixer's wifi (Behringer XR12) it delays loading the parameters in KK for about 30 sec and hangs KK as well as Arturia Service Centre. I've been talking to Arturia for 2 days now and we are trying to solve the issue.
