Why can't I see audio plug ins in Mojave Hello Everyone, I finally updated my recording computer this year and I'm now using the last version of Mojave. I'm trying to remove some outdated components, but they don't seem to appear in Library>audio>Plug Ins>components anymore. Can anyone please help me find them? I know it's easy, I just haven't learned this new "feature" yet. :)

Finder Unable to preview audio in finder on Mac book pro Everytime I try to listen to audio files in finder I can't. It's really annoying because I have folders full of audio files that I use to make music. If I want to hear the audio I have to double click the file and it opens in Apple music, and this didn't use to happen. I would really appreciate anyones help.

Are you sure you're browsing the right /Library folder, though? Just to be sure, could you make a screenshot of the empty Library/Audio/plugins folder (where a path to the folder is visible, preferably)?
