I'm totally new to Max MSP so just going through some basics now but I can't seem to get any of the externals I've downloaded working.

I've tried 3 so far: Bonk, BTrack and WinBeat (I'm trying to get beat detection working as my first project)

I have included their location folder in my path (Options->File Preferences) and after restarting Max I do a search for , i.e. beat and it finds the beat~ external but if I click on it in the explorer it comes up with an error 'XML File "beat~.maxref.xml" not found'

This is exactly the same for the other externals I've added (Bonk and BTrack)

Could anyone explain to me where bI'm going wrong here?

I'm running the latest version of Max for Windows 64bit , could it be the externals aren't compatible with Max 7?

Externals not working: '*.maxref.xml not found'
