NOTE: You can designate the Library destination from the next screen.<\/li>\n<li>From the &#8220;Custom Install&#8230;&#8221; screen you can designate the Library to be installed to a different drive. To the right of the Library name, click folder icon under the &#8220;Location&#8221; column to select a destination for the Library. We suggest installing the library on a fast drive (7200 RPM or faster) dedicated to samples for best performance.<\/li>\n<li>The next window will ask you to verify that you have all of the discs you need to successfully install your product, then installation will begin. NOTE: Play libraries come on Dual Layer DVD discs and may take upwards of 45 minutes per disc to install, so please allow sufficient time per disc as the long installation time is normal. The progress bar is also updated after each disc and is not always accurate. The installer will prompt you when it is ready for the next disc.<\/li>\n<li>After installation you will need to authorize.

Make sure to run the Play Software Update after installation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[1],"tags":[35767,35161,53991,55060,34259,36119],"storecat":[],"itemids":[],"manufacturers":[33322],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Check out the Installing an East West PLAY Library on Mac page at Sweetwater \u2014 the world&#039;s leading music technology and instrument retailer!\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/articles\/installing-an-east-west-play-library-on-mac\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Installing an East West PLAY Library on Mac - SweetCare\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"To install a Play product on your Mac do the following: Insert the Disc #1 of your product into your MAC.
