MOTION won't open CREATE GCODE files

I bought and finished assembling an XXL. Downloaded CC and CM both on Mac and PC and followed all instructions.
1- I don’t see the Library icon in CC.
2- no matter how I save GCODE, Motion can’t see the files (they are not highlighted). I even manually typed the .nc in Mac. No luck.
HELP

Hi @Ramin,

Welcome to the forum and the Shapeoko community

1 - the Library of vector elements is not available in CM anymore, it is now available online, see https://launch.carbide3d.com/elements

2 - how do you save the G-code ? A common mistake is using the “File/Save” menu, which actually saves the design project itself (with .c2d extension). The G-code file itself is generated using the dedicated save g-code button in the toolpath section of CC (bottom left of the screen under the toolpath list). Now, there IS a temporary limitation that on Macs, the “nc” extension is missing from the generated file. Just add the .nc extension manually from your file manager

Thank you.
I did all that yesterday and nothing.
But today they magically appeared.
