When I attempt to load an Akai library using the “import Akai” option in Battery on my Mac with OS 9.2.2, I get an error type 2 message generating. I also do not see the option to set the “import device” as shown on page 34 of the manual. What do I do?
There is a known issue with the current CD/DVD extensions that are used in Mac OS 9.2.2 and the Apple combo drives (CD/DVDROM). These extensions can cause a problem when trying to import Akai libraries. The only workaround at this time is to install and use an older set of CD/DVD extensions. The version we have tested to work is v1.39. You can find these extension by visiting the Apple support website (www.apple.com/support) or by contact our technical support team. Please NOTE: that using the older extensions can render some functions of your DVD drive useless until you go back to using the new extensions. So you can make a seperate extension set for DVD use and one for Akai import use. Refer to your Apple manual for info on how to use your extension manager.
