    Hi All,

    My external Drive (where I stored all my VSL sample libraries) recently died on me.

    So, I bought 2 x Sandisc 64GB USB drives (these were the biggest I could find at the time) & redownloaded all my libraries onto these 2 drives (plugged into an external multiport USB adapter).

    My first problem was that only the samples of one of the two drives was showing in the Vienna Instruments Browser - I could not get the samples in the 2nd drive to show at all.

    So, I ejected the 2 drives & repeated the whole process - this time installing the libraries on the internal H.D. of my iMac:

    MacIntosh HD/Library/Audio/Plug-ins/VST

    Now, some of the libraries are showing up in the V.I. - but some are still not.

    I checked the Directory Manager & found that all my libraries were in red print!

    So I deleted & restored them, as per the VSL instructional video 'How To Use The Directory Manager (OS X)', but still no luck.

    I am at a loss as to what to do next to get all my sample libraries back up & loaded in the V.I. browser.

    I'd be really grateful for any helpful suggestions please.

    Many thanks.
