Title: Lost playlists when going to 19
Post by: nealsal on October 19, 2013, 09:27:13 am

Hi,
I upgraded 18 to 19 and while doing so, migrated all my music from W:drive to D:drive.  (By the way, moving the files from the external USB bus to the internal SATA had a significant increase in detail and resolution and focus of sound).  I imagine because JR couldn't find the earlier playlists' files, it wiped them clean-- the playlists are there, just empty.

How can I find a file that lists the songs I'd had in each playlist, so that I can at least recover them manually.  (Or is there a better way?) 

Thanks, Neal

Restore a library from MC18 into MC19.

Then use Library Tools > Rename, Move, & Copy Files... with find and replace to switch W:\ to D:\ in the filename.
