Problems installing syntronik deluxe

Postby eric.linder » Mon Dec 21, 2020 5:26 pm

Hi!

I’ve just finished installing syntronik deluxe. I directed the library folder to the right place and it does build the database. But it says it can’t find the .pak files even though they are in the folder hierarchy ... ???

Double-check the folder hierarchy with this FAQ:
https://www.ikmultimedia.com/faq/index.php?id=1239

If all looks good, the best thing to do is check the FAQs, via here. If they do not resolve the issue, there is a link at the top of the Search FAQs page to the Technical Support form, for some one to one investigation and help. Response time is usually within 2 working days (US (East Coast) Business hours, generally), but in the current circumstances please allow some more time.

[#] But please remember that the same symptoms do not necessarily mean the same problem.

And, to help others who run into a similar problem, please let us know what you did to resolve the problem. Please do not quote directly any correspondence from Support, as that may apply only to your particular circumstances.

^^^^
It is unlikely that the solution to eric.linder's problem will be the same as yours, and could confuse things further. It is best to address your problem in a separate thread.

I am glad that you got it sorted out. Bit I am slightly confused as you had posted:
... the .pak files even though they are in the folder hierarchy


Didn't the IKPM (the IK Product Manager) download and install the sounds library for you? If the IKPM did not do that, please let Technical Support know so that they can investigate. Or did you do it another way?

Just for other readers:
DMG files are macOS disk image files. They are much like ISO files—their Windows-based counterpart. These disk images normally contain program installation files for macOS apps, but they can also be used to hold compressed files. ... You can't open DMG files directly in Windows,
