My TRAKTOR KONTROL X1 (MK1) is not Recognized by TRAKTOR (OS X 10.9) – Native Instruments

Note: This article refers to the original TRAKTOR KONTROL X1 only. TRAKTOR KONTROL X1 MK2 devices are not affected by this issue.

In some cases, the TRAKTOR KONTROL X1 is not recognized by TRAKTOR under Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks). To resolve this issue, simply follow the steps below:

Disconnect your TRAKTOR KONTROL X1 from the computer.
Open TRAKTOR.
Go to Preferences > File Management.
Untick the option Import Music Folders at Startup on the top of the menu.
Close TRAKTOR.
Connect your TRAKTOR KONTROL X1 to the Computer.
Restart TRAKTOR.

Now your controller will be recognized. Instead of using Import Music Folders at Startup, you can import your music folders manually by right-clicking on the Track Collection folder in TRAKTOR's Browse Tree and selecting Import Music Folders from the context-menu.
