    Hey everyone,

    What's the easiest way to move all my Native Instruments content from my Mac internal HDD to an external drive? Is it a simple copy & paste then point Native Access to the new location?

    Yes. You'll want to cut&paste rather than copy&paste, though :)

    I have moved several expansions and Kontakt instruments in the same way and need to move many more.

    I however believe that I copied the files to make sure that everything would not be lost in an unexpected catastrophe as a precaution.

    But remember that all files appear to be available for downloading again via Native Access.

    I wish there was an easier way built into the software.

    Best wishes on your move!
