I think this is the right place to report an issue. Anyway, I recently ran into an error in Fusion 360 that had to do with Eagle libraries.
Version: 2.0.9144
Active Plan: Fusion 360, Student
macOS 10.15.2
Issue: When I close my laptop running Fusion 360 then reopen it at a later time, I would get a series of errors saying that Eagle library files are missing. The only option at first was to force quit fusion and not deal with the error. But I would lose any unsaved work. I'm not sure why these files are even being loaded or used when I'm not using Eagle for the designs I have open.
Error message:
Failed to open '/Users/username/Library/Application Support/Eagle/lbr/adsk.eagle_library_179/con-phoenix-mkds_5.lbr'.
Background: I had to recently uninstall Fusion 360 manually and reinstall. In the process library files must have been deleted in the directory above.. I think. But not sure. Once I first encountered the error, I tried to update my install of Eagle to find it didn't not resolve the issue.
To resolve the issue I did the following:
1. Opened Eagle
2. Made a new schematic
3. Opened the library manager
4. Clicked the Available tab.
5. Clicked "Install Bundled Libraries"
6. Went back to fusion to see the errors gone.
When I looked in the /Users/username/Library/Application Support/Eagle/lbr folder I found it installed all the missing libraries.
