I think that content is included with the product install.

Have you checked C Drive>ProgramData>Autodesk>RAC 2012>Libraries?

Thank you for your reply.

I have been through all the folders in the Revit file and there is none that say libraries. Plus when i try to open up a library item, it comes up with nothing available, doesn't even go to a library file?????

Any other ideas?

"I have been through all the folders in the Revit file and there is none that say libraries."

Is this where you went?

C Drive>ProgramData>Autodesk>RAC 2012>Libraries

Yes the folder wasn't RAC2012 but longer recut architecture.... There was not folder in any of the sub folders called libraries...

Could you click on your "local disk C" and then 

Alt+Printscreen and post that image here?

[kobe]

I pressed ALT print Screen but it does nothing, do you have any more instructions..... Thanks

[vector2]

Press Alt+Printscreen then open Paint and click paste then save as

to the desktop and post that here.

Not so easy solution on this one for me, but try this:

(Also the australian way of approaching the same

thing is just different enough to throw me off track

sometimes).

Go to the control panel to Programs and Features and

choose Uninstall/Change for Revit 2012 to modify, and

then choose to Add or Remove Features, then choose

the content you need installed. (Don't know if that will

do it for you though).

I knew they changed the content loader for 2012 but I

never paid much attention to it because I just let it

download the content and then I copied it all to a

secondary drive and I will always have it.

Also keep in mind that the 2011 content is virtually the

same as 2012, in case you come across that stuff too.
