After fresh L8 Pro install, EXS still can't find some files

I can't work it out. The EXS couldn't find a heap of files so I did a fresh and full L8 install. While most can be found, there still seems to be a lot of 'can't finds'. I'm running Snow Leopard but this problem was already there beforehand if I recall correctly.

 

Can anyone offer some clues/tips?

 

Many thanks,

 

BK.

Drag your hard drive into that window and then click the - button.

 

Shall do. Thanks Eric. :)

 

I'm not sure it will work but it's worth a try.

Could you tell us which instruments are affected by this issue.

It worked Eric, thank you. I had thought about doing this last night but held back until I consulted the gurus here - and that worked too. :)

 

Instruments affected were mainly the larger piano combo samples - things like piano and strings (where are the strings?) - but there were scattered incidences all over, really. I've just tried half a dozen of the ones I can remember and they're all fine now.

 

One bonus of the Snow Leopard Spotlight seems to be the speed with which it indexes: It managed 200GB of a 320GB drive in about 15 minutes. That's a whole lot faster than the last OS if I'm not mistaken.

 

So good lessons learned all round. Thanks again! :D

Here's from ars technica:

 

What is striking about Snow Leopard's installation is how quickly the initial Spotlight indexing process completed. Here, Snow Leopard was 74% faster in my testing

Yup. Spot on. Interesting though that you have to 're'index to get it happening..

 

I don't suppose you have any quick solutions to the Toontrack EZPlayer Pro / Environment hassle, do you? :D

Thanks again, Eric. I'll have a read and give it a shot. You've been most helpful and I owe you one. Or two. :)
