Moving library to new drive
« on: February 18, 2002, 05:07:24 pm »

Can anyone help me with moving a library?  I got a new (DNext Page drive and wanted to move all my music files there. I took advice froma previous post and copied the files, then re-imported, which worked well enough, but how do I get my offline CD track info moved?

Thanks

Me again...I am just realizing that not all the ID3 tag info came over when I moved the files to new drive and re-imported. Some songs didn't come across with the Artist associated, even though I assigned Artist to the whol album at once and some of the tracks did come across correct.

Any thoughts?

I think the easier way to move them is to select the files you want to move from the Media Library view, all of them in your case, RIGHT click anywhere on the highlighted area, then choose Move/Copy Disk File.  I believe by moving it in this fashion, MJ automatically updates the file info.
