Hey

Does anyone know if the MBP Retina + Kontrol s4 MK1 bug was fixed???

Pretty serious problem. sincerely pisses me off literally once a day.

I disagree. This is a pretty big issue for people.

And, no, it won't take 5 minutes to uninstall, reinstall, and then restore. Not for me at least.

However, by finding the workaround, I can deal with it. Other people on the NI forums have reported that changing resolutions within Traktor and then changing them back is also allowing them to go full screen as well.

So there's a solution at least, and my evening is not ruined.

If it takes you longer than that, Id suggest you hold off updating in future until the kinks are worked out.

You always have to assume new updates will break everything, and be prepared for that eventuality with backups.

Traktor takes less than 5 minutes to restore to a working backup version if youre organised.

Make sure you have a copy of the 2.6.8 installer or download it from NI.

Backup your Traktor Root Dir, usually at C:\Users\Username\Documents\Native Instruments\Traktor 2.6.8.

This contains all your collection database files and playlists, but not your collection.

Backup your Traktor content dir, usually at C:\Users\Username\Music\Traktor

This contains your samples, loops and remix sets.

To restore Traktor to 2.6.8 you need to uninstall 2.7, reinstall 2.6.8, and then replace those two directories from backup and run traktor. Everything should be exactly as it was before.

I'll take your word for it, because I haven't done a restore for Traktor before, but every event in Windows 8 and 8.1 like this has been an absolute nightmare, so maybe I just expect a worst case scenario when that's not actually the case.

I do have 2.6.8 installer, and all my library and settings back ups, so I am prepared at least.

I am not, however, accustomed to new updates introducing a ton of problems like this, so you are right that in the future I am going to hold off.

Hopefully fixes will be quick, with their flagship controller right around the corner.

THIS IS INCORRECT.

There is no need to uninstall anything.

Just navigate to your folder Applications folder: Native Instruments>Backup and hit the last icon/exe that worked for you. Your installation previous to 2.7.0 will start up and you are back to where you where before installing 2.7.0.
