    Hi,

    I happened to had to factory reset my iMac. After everything was up, I decided to start reinstalling my Komplete 10.
    I, then, realize that all my NI stuff were installed on my external HD.

    So I have a question, do I have to reinstall EVERYTHING again (it take too much time), or is there a quicker solution.

    I mean, everything was up and running before the Master Reset and my external HD is untouched.

    Do I have another way to use the library already on my external HD, or I have to deleted it and start installation from scrap?

    Hello João Pedro Pinheiro and welcome to the forum.

    I'm pretty sure that you can just install the software, not the libraries. Then start the standalone program (e.g. Kontakt) and set the library folder in the Options. Give it a try and let us know if it is OK.

    As DarkStar already suggested:

    (1) Just select the applications and plugins (without the library content) for installation:
    http://www.native-instruments.com/en/support/knowledge-base/show/2667/installing-single-products-from-the-komplete-bundle-on-mac-os-x/

    (2) Then point in the options/preferences of the standalone applications to the existing libraries on your external HDD.

    Some info about relocating existing libraries can also be found here: www.native-instruments.com/en/support/knowledge-base/show/500/how-to-move-native-instruments-software-or-libraries-to-another-location-on-the-computer/
