    EDIT : I found the answer on this forum after a google search. I have to put a picture named wallpaper.png (407 x 98 pixels) in the root folder of the soundbank (for RA, it's in folder Ra Library for example).

    I haven't received my Kontakt 5 box yet but can we change the wallpaper for libraries ? For example, I have a darkred wallpaper for the Kontakt Factory Selection (on the left panel in the tab "Librairies") but a grey, sad wallpaper for my EastWest librairies. I would like to change them if it's possible.

    Thanks !

    I have just been through this David as I've upgraded from a G4 to an i7 iMac. Many hours trying to troubleshoot before I got enough answers. My situation was the Gold Symphonic library. I tried installing on the iMac and had difficulty even getting it on the drive. The library was another story. Once installed, they all came up with stuffit logos as the file image and get info revealed them as binary files. These were obviously not recognized. So I followed some counsel and downloaded the free Kontakt 5 player. I brought over an external drive with my EW Gold library and after installing the .plist file from NI, K5 player recognized the library. Good so far. My issue now is that DP513, having examined and loaded the K5Player AU... won't load it as an instrument plugin. It's in the menu and up for selection, but when I instanciate it, just a white window the size of the plug, but without any plug. I'm trying to trouble shoot this as I write... but I may just have to update DP as well. Hope this helps validate what you guys have been disussing... ~john

    I know this thread is a few months old but I figured I'd chime in with what I have going on.

    A few months ago I upgraded to SL from Leopard and went from DP5.13 to DP7.24 and from Kontakt 3 to 3.5. I also have the complete composer collection which I purchased in 2008. Everything has been just fine until 2 days ago....

    I tried to use Symphonic Choirs

    Just getting it to make sound was a bit of a chore but once I did I couldn't get it make any noise except for vowel sounds. I'm still trying to figure this one out but haven't found any info on this yet. I posted a thread on Motunation and Sounds on Line, no luck so far.

    Wordbuilder seems to be running fine on my machine (intel iMac) so I would think that there is hope to making this work still
