The Library Location
Chooser.
If any of these previous Library locations are now unavailable (perhaps because of an
unattached external drive, a moved or renamed folder, or an angry roommate) these will
appear greyed-out in the list. If you know that these unavailable locations are gone for
good, you can remove them by using the Clear Unavailable Locations option at the bottom
of the chooser:
Unavailable Library
Locations can be
Cleared from the List.
You can also use the Browse button next to this chooser to create a new Library by pointing
to an empty folder or creating a new one. Once you've selected a Library path, one of
several possibilities will occur, depending on the new location:
If the target location is an empty folder on a different hard drive, you will be given the
option to copy your current Library to this new location. Live will then offer to open a
Explorer (Windows)/Finder (Mac) window so that you can delete the Library from the
old location.
If the target location is an empty folder on the same hard drive, you will be given the
option to move your current Library to this new location.
If the target location is not empty but does not contain a Library, Live will create a
subfolder called Library at this location, and then offer to copy/move the old Library
