East West Symphonic Gold Bundle not loading in Kontakt 2.2.2 player

Hi to all--
I posted this within another thread, but since it hasn't been answered, and might have been a little off the topic of that thread, I thought I might try a new thread.
I've installed the EWQL Symphonic Gold bundle, as directed, and run the stand-alone player once and closed it, also as directed in forum posts and the Soundsonline website.But I'm not able to then load sounds into the Kontakt player as a plug-in within LP8, as is necessary since Intel Macs can't run the Kompakt player like every other kind of computer, but only Kontakt. I'm running Kontakt 2.2.2.001, so it's beyond the minimum version necessary for the EWQL according to what their documentation says.
Just to make sure I'm giving y'all lots of info so maybe you can help, I'll give you the steps I'm doing as concisely as possible.
In a new Logic Arrange window, I'm creating a new stereo Software Instrument track. In the Mixer, I navigate to Kontakt 2 so that it comes up in the I/O button, then double-click so the Kontakt control panel comes up. So far so good. Then, under "load/save" on the Kontakt panel, I navigate to samples via the Pro XP Library Folder, to "instruments" sub-folder, then through instrument families to individual samples. But when I select and hit the "choose" button, I get the following error message: "KontaktPlayer2-The patch you're trying to load cannot be used with this application."
I can't see that I'm doing anything wrong, but hopefully whatever it is is simple to fix. Maybe I'll just go "duhh" when a kind soul tells me what's going on.
Thanks in advance to all!
later,
John

Thanks, Bee Jay and Jim!
Bee Jay, you are quite right that it's not a Logic problem. I just thought I might get a helpful response from someone here, since NI is very weird and squirrely.
I finally had a moderator get back to me on the Soundsonline Forum, who told me the root of the problem: I have been trying to use the Kontakt 2.2.2 PLAYER, not the program itself, and it's the latter that is required. Hmmm. That was not made clear to me when I bought the East-West collection. But maybe my fault for not knowing the difference between program and player? Anyway, I'm on the hook for an upgrade from the Kontakt player to a full version of Kontakt 3, and I just have to suck it up. Boo hoo hoo, right? ;>)
later,
John

Peter Siedlaczeks String Essentials or East West Symphonic on Intel Macs

Best Service have advised me to buy Kontakt 2 in order to use String Essentials on my new Intel laptop and I notice there is no update available for the East West Symphonic.
Can anyone inform me of the processes involved in runing these sound libraries within Kontakt before I spend £160 on the crossgrade?

Yep, I understand...
This is the final news I needed to get to complete my answer... I confronted myself the italian store and the US one and in the US one I didn't find this product...
As for the NI software, was so good that I just bought back my good "old" iMac G5 and will exchange it with this my Intel Mac. The G5 2 Ghz was good, performing as this new Intel (at times I even got the impression was more performing, but I believe is just an impression) and surely didn't have so many 3rd parties problems.
Meanwhile I filled every forum of NI and USB with my questions about the compatibility... and maybe I will be back to an Intel Mac when all would be OK, I'm not in a hurry!
By the way I had a listen to your work: GREAT!
You may hear a sketch version of something we did work on with the NI piano and choir sounds, while the alto sax is played live and the other instruments are from Apple or real keys (yes, we mix a lot of things):

while here is a track where we did use both the Orchestral sounds of Garageband (and some of it's loops, mixed with some good old programming) together with some NI sound:

We do not often use orchestra if not as here and there (other than in some work as this last one, but is not so frequent). Hope you may like our little works!

I can't get east west symphonic choirs to work in logic

Hi,
I'm having huge problems with the EW Symphonic Choirs software. Firstly I followed the videos that come with the discs and it works to a point. but then it all goes horribly wrong.
It says that I should create a midi track to record into and output the details of this track to an audio track. The only thing is that when I play these notes in the audio track they're all a semitone below the midi track! I can't understand this at all. So basically I have a melody that sounds all in simultaneous semitones, excrutiating for the ear!
Then, there are only two possibilities for voices as the wordbuilder that comes with SC only has 4 ports. So it is impossible to play even an SATB! So in a sense its not really choir software at all, more like a vocal ensemble since you can only combine two of the 4 voice groups.
More problems occur when I try to bounce the track, awful as it sounds, off to an aif. When listening back I get the voices cutting in and out with crackling sounds and stuttered speech. Also I can also hear the click as well crackling under the voices. I have never heard anything like this before with other software.
Is there some setting that will fix this? My RAM is only 2.5, maybe this is a problem?
I tried contacting the East West support team but they don't reply. To be honest this is putting me off ever buying anything from them again. I might get a refund soon if these problems persist.
Any help you have would be greatly appreciated.

Hi every body,
First of all sorry for my bad english I'm from Switzerland
I myself acquired one east west choirs, and I encountered the same kind of problems.
But I have a new mac pro 2.4 Ghz 12 GB RAM processor 2*6 core.
It Looks like I should be able to hack the pentagon to install this program correctly.
First, it often bugs, it crashes 2/5.
It also crashes when I load the WordBuilder,
when I load a bank, and I add one more, there are problems with the transpose. And very difficult to manage the problem touching the transpose cause bank load more than 8-10 samples and sometimes nothing moves when you touch the transpose.
Notes are also arranged on the keyboard completely strange way, for example, a bank plays in C in the middle of the keyboard and the same bank plays in G to the bottom notes, so you're in big **** even if you manage your transpose problem. The same instrument change tone!
So when I mix the bank I find a lost bottom note, lost at the top of the keyboard while playing and angelic note by mistake! The only way it's tu put down the transpose to get off this note but after you turn back with your tonality problem.
I contacted the dealer. He told me to uninstall the program and the re-install, describing me a procedure for mac which steps doesn't really appears like in the dscription.
I bought extansion that goes with this and I'm really angry given the price $ 600.
Is there someone who knows what program it is, is it a big scam or a monumental BAD series???
I wanted to buy the strings and brass too, but I strongly believe that I'll never approach an east west product or other product that would use the PLAY WIZARD, it seems they decide to sell technology that is not at all successfull and finished.
Could someone help, some one who has got this application and could answer; even if it's to hear "throw this **** to garbage and forgot" lol

Games will not load after instruction to update flash player..which is already up dated...only since downloading firefox 4

East West Keyswitches off by 1 octave in Logic Pro X

I am using East West Symphonic Orchestra Platinum Plus, Play, and Logic Pro X. The keyswitch notes indicated in the East West manual are one octave lower than the notes that actually trigger the articulations in Logic Pro. For example, the solo violin master keyswitch instrument lists the F0 key as the keyswitch for the half step trill articulation. However, in Logic Pro, F0 does not trigger anything, but F1 triggers the half step trill articulation. This is not an isolated incident, as I have tried several other articulations and the keyswitches that trigger those are all one octave higher than they should be. I could just put up with this, except that for the solo violin and other instruments, the keyswitch notes overlap with the regular notes, meaning the keyswitch notes are audible in my track. As a final note, my MIDI keyboard is able to utilize keyswitches correctly (i.e, when I play C0 on the keyboard, the C0 keyswitch is triggered in the Play window).
Is there an easy fix for this?

I think this worked. The odd thing is, I have a Roland A-88 keyboard but the Yamaha setting works for me. Thanks!
Not odd at all. The communication in question is between Logic and the plug in. There may even be a setting within the plug that is basically the same thing.

Linking East West Samples w/ Logic?

I have the East West Symphonic Orchestra Platinum Edition, and would like to use these sounds in Logic Pro 8. How do I do this?
I've heard that I may have to purchase Kontakt or the full version of Kompakt in order to make this work. Is that true?
Thanks-

The East West Libraries, such as Platinum, do not work with the included sample player on Intel machines, such as your Mac Book. You would need to get the latest version of the Kontakt sampler, which will read the East West samples. The good news is, as a registered owner of Platinum, you can buy Kontakt at a discounted price.
The possible better news is, East West just released "PLAY" for the platinum orchestra, which is their new sample player for Intel machines, and you will probably be able to upgrade for very little money, especially if you just purchased Platinum recently.

Aperture will not load

I have been using Aperture for a while on my MacPro desktop computer, today I put my memory card in and usually Aperture would load, however no response. I tried manually opening the program and the dock icon just bounced once and then gave up. I tried loading the program directly from the applications folder, but the same problem arrouse, I also tried copying the application and opening it but the problem still stayed. I tried logging out, shutting down, restarting, disconnecting from the internet, nothing seems to fix the problem. I tried loading it without the memory card also so i don't think that is the problem.
Does anyone know how to resolve this problem?
Thanks

Ok so the upgrade didn't help, still the same problem, i have moved my library to another computer, so everything related to aperture should be brand new today, i've got the feeling something is hiding somewhere because when i install its doing it very quickly and saying "upgrade" rather than "install".
here is the stuff from the console after i tried to open Aperture:

Adobe Flash Player Problem: "Movie Not Loaded"

new user to mac.
i'm getting more and more frustrated with this computer.
what's bugging me the most right now is
i am unable to view videos on certain websites.
rather than showing the content,
a white box appears.
when i right click on the white box,
it says "movie not loaded" (in gray) and adobe flash player 9 (in black).
i can't click on the gray line.
when i click on the black line, it brings me to the adobe website and tells me adobe flash player 9 has been successfully installed.
i am fairly sure this has nothing to do with heavy traffic.
any insights on how to resolve this issue?
cheers.

Hi, First I would test each browser here:
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
Can you see the animation and the version number that is listed?
If so, then while you are at that site, RIGHT click on the Flash logo, click Settings, then Display Settings is where you UNcheck the hardware acceleration. This sometimes helps since this is turned on by default.

Not sure what to say. Have the free version, installed it and GB found it. Perhaps contact East West support if you have a paid version...

East/West Gold - Can I run it on MacBook Pro w/ Logic Pro?

I heard "somewhere" that East/West products have trouble running on a MacBook Pro w/ Logic Pro. Any feedback?
I have also heard that if I buy East/West products I now have to buy a separate "player" (like Kontakt) in order to run them on a MacBook, although what I'm reading is that this is only true for previous versions, not new purchases. Anybody heard any of this?
Thanks in advance for your collective wisdom!

EWQLSO traditionally comes with the Kompakt player, which NI are not updating for MacIntel, so it won't run as is on a Macbook.
However, you have two choices now. You can either buy Kontakt, which is available as a UB for MacIntel machines, and which should%% load the libraries, or EastWest have developed their own player software. Whether you get it free or have to pay the upgrade depends on when you purchased it - if you haven't bought yet, you'll (I think) get the new player for free.
Do check when the player comes out though, I don't think it's ready yet, but could be mistaken.
You can get details of this at www.soundsonline.com
%%Note: Kontakt should load the libraries, but there has been a longstanding authorisation bug in Kontakt which sometimes prevents this. There are easy workarounds on the PC (registry editing) but none that I've seen on the Mac. Some people have had no problems, other people just cannot load encrypred libraries at all - so do check anddo some research before purchase.
You can always post in the Soundsonline forum for more details.

East/West Gold Orch wtih Logic

How do I use East/West Gold Orch Edition with Logic? I can't find the sequencer, when I try to launch it in an audio instrument track.
Thanks.
Ole from Denmark.

EWQLSO runs on either Kompakt (There should be a dedicated instrument included in your bundle) or using Kontakt, which can be bought as a separate sampler from Native Instruments.
If you have a second hand version of the software, it is an incredibly laborious process. I bought mine in the 'group buy' that ran a couple of years ago at Northern Sounds. They failed to mention it was for OS9! A lot of downloading of patches and updates before I could get it to work. Thankfully, now I have a Native Instruments login I can download the updates should I wish to re-install them.

East/West Arrows not appearing on just one web site?

When in a certain financial site only [Optionsxpress.com], there is no arrows appearing at the bottom to move in the east/west direction to navigate the screen, all other web sites ok, When I tried it on Internet Explorer it was ok, I prefer to use firefox at all times. please help

Thanks for all the replies folks...
I haven't tried another browser (I like IE and didn't want to install something I don't really want) but I could do to aid trobleshooting if needed (I use Acronis so can roll back).
Anyhow after all the trouble yesterday I unplugged the HH rather than doing a "soft" reset via the button. The site that was problematic is at the moment OK.
If a site is unobtainable for whatever reason why does a reset of the HH "find" a path to the site only for it to fail again.
I see others have had similar issues although Bing.com is one I do use and that has been fine for me.
Whether this is related or not I have no idea but after all the resetting of the HH i thought I would just try Speedtest.net to make sure my line profile hadn't suffered. The "ping" value was a little higher than normal but what was was odd was that the server automatically chosen to run the test was at the other end of the country rather than more local ones.

I'm sorry no-one has answered you yet - I'm afraid I don't know the answer to the question: but I wanted to put into your mind that starting up with AppleWorks at this stage isn't a good idea. The program was 'end-of-lifed' years ago, it won't run on Lion, and some of the document types created in it - Databases in particular - cannot be opened at all by any other program whatever. Word Processing documents can be opened in Pages, and Spreadsheets in Numbers (with some reservations in both cases), but building up a collection of AppleWorks documents at this stage is going to lead to problems later on.
It's difficult to know what to recommend for a PowerPC machine that would still be compatible with modern ones. An older version of Microsoft Office, perhaps, if you can find one which will run on PPC; but most of the modern Word Processors are Intel only. This is something you would need to investigate.

Hi vrlester,
If you are having issues playing back content purchased from the iTunes Store, you may want to try redownloading it. You may find the following article helpful:
