Peace. I need real help that I could not solve the problem until now. Has a plan Altium complete with all the directories but when I search for a particular element by directive of the instructions where said component should be in a particular directory I do a search and the software can not find the component. I must say that I have all part numbers and how the software may not find the component?
Please help. Component is 2N3904 and is listed as miscellaneous device and should be available this library is one of the library components., But component not found and other elements I was looking for. Why I can not find it and Aichnitn overcome the problem? Way that other components of the software can not find. Please your help
 

1. Did you selected the library path correctly? (library path relative to .should select the library path in the installation folder
eg: C:\Program Files (x86)\Altium Designer Summer 09\Library
2. Did you check that the miscellaneous device is installed on your altium library?
On the window "Available Libraries" and under "installed". miscellaneous devices should be ticked. If its not, tick it.

If its not helpful, you can manually install the miscellaneous devices.

On "Available Libraries" and select "install". Navigate to the folder and select the miscellaneous devices and open it. and close the window.

Now you make a search of that component in your library.

Hope it helps
