Spectrasonics – Omnisphere Patch Library UPDATE 2.1.0f for Mac OS X and Windows is the flagship synthesizer of Spectrasonics – an instrument of extraordinary power and versatility. When trying to load Omnisphere, I get an issue saying steam folder is not writable. I try and untick read only on my folders and subfolders and it keeps reverting to being ticked when I check again.
Jan 23, 2016 So, I moved Omnisphere 2's STEAM folder from my SSD (the location I specified when I installed) to my external HDD. Spectrasonics' site says that I should be able to receive a prompt when loading Omnisphere that guides me in relocating my STEAM folder. Feb 26, 2018 AND,WHEN I OPEN THE KEYSCAPE PLUGIN APPEARS THIS:'The STEAM folder does not have write permission. Change permissions on STEAM folder, and all STEAM subfolders, to include Write access.' And STEAM folder is not writable. The steam folder is on a transcend jetdrive. Help me, i tried everything!
So I made a bit of a mistake this morning and I'm hoping for some helpful options in getting back up and running. A little background: After finishing up a scoring project I decided to go ahead and update my machine to Mac OS 10.13 High Sierra. What I didn't know was that Omnisphere 1 is not compatible with this update, so it got wiped from my machine. (I should have checked the compatibility..live and learn.) I am happy to upgrade to Omnisphere 2, but their website states that the upgrade will not work correctly unless Omnisphere 1 is installed. Since I can't reinstall the original then it seems that I'm stuck. My question is: Does anyone know if the upgrade will in fact not work if I don't have the original on my machine? If so, the only solutions I can think of are (1) Downgrade to the old OS, upgrade to Omnisphere 2, reinstall the new OS..or (2) Buy Omnisphere new outright and just abandon the upgrade path. I have contacted Spectrasonics to get their take on what my options are, but haven't received any response. This all happened this morning, so I expect that they are just busy or haven't gotten to my message yet. - Ryan

The data files for Omnisphere are stored in your STEAM folder. When you update your patches or soundsources, you are updating files in your STEAM folder, which was created when you originally installed Omnisphere. Your STEAM folder is located inside your Spectrasonics folder. See the instructions below to find your Spectrasonics folder. Inside your Spectrasonics folder you'll find STEAM, which may be the STEAM folder, or it may be an alias (Mac) or Shortcut (Window) to the STEAM folder.
On Mac, the Spectrasonics folder is located here:
Macintosh HD/Users/<Your Username>/Library/Application Support/Spectrasonics
From Mac OS X 10.7 and higher, Apple have made the User - Library folder a hidden folder by default. This is to stop general Mac users fiddling with settings, however, music makers will require using this folder from time to time.

Storing sound files on a secondary drive
If you are wanting to store your Omnisphere audio files on a second hard drive, you can put the Spectrasonics/STEAM folder onto your second drive. You will then need to create an alias or 'short cut' to this location on your main Mac or Windows drive. You can create an alias (Mac) or a short cut (Windows) by right-clicking (ctrl+click for Mac users) the STEAM folder and selecting it from the menu.

On Windows Vista and Windows 7, the Spectrasonics folder needs to be located here:

You will then need to move the STEAM alias folder (or the STEAM short cut folder) into the Spectrasonics folder on your main drive.
Moving Steam Folder Omnisphere
Note: On Mac, once you have placed the 'STEAM alias' folder on your main drive, you will need to rename it removing the word alias from the file, otherwise it will not work. You should now have a 'STEAM' folder on your main drive that is pointing to its actual location on your second drive. Now when you close and re-launch your host application, Omnisphere should be pulling the audio files from off of the second hard drive.
