Hi.

When I installed LC2 on the first time, the LiveControl 2 line did not appear in Live's MIDI settings page.
After some investigating I noticed that Live's package contents only showed folders. The only files I could see were on the LiveControl 2 scripts folder.

I did the following to show the hidden files (I supposed so):
1 - Open Terminal found in Finder > Applications > Utilities
2 - In Terminal, paste the following (case sensitive): defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles YES
3 - Press return
4 - Hold ‘alt’ on your keyboard, then right click on the Finder icon in the dock and click Relaunch

Now, if you open the Live package you'll see all the files. Copy the LiveControl 2 scripts to the scripts folder and start Live. The LiveControl 2 line should now appear :)

Hope this helps some.
