Update Location of Files in Database 1.3 (2012-06-12) [MM2+]

You got it. I wasn't actually changing the file extension.

Fixed that, executed the script and it worked like a dream.

Thanks for the quick response.

Great product.

You probably didn't really change the extension. You need to change your Win explorer settings to show file extensions.

Alternatively, use a different browser to download the extension. I believe its only an issue when you download the files with Internet explorer. Try Chrome or Firefox.

Correction. If I double click the renamed .mmip file, it still behaves like a zip file and wants to extract the files.

I can't get the download to work.

I am running Windows7 64 bit.

The downloaded file is a zip file. If I rename it to a .mmip file as mentioned in the directions, and then double click it, nothing seems to happen.

If I xtract the zip file to a directory, I get a VB Script file, which also seems to do nothing if I double click it.

Any thoughts? Is 64 bit W7 my problem?

It seems that you are using some old version of the add-on which had such bug. It is removed in v1.3.2 - 2012-06-01:
* Fixed: update when the old and new paths are same with the same drive letters, but with different drive serial numbers.

as ive already mapped to the new location, i cant do it again, old and new path are the same
I can play all the files direct from their location within MM... just not playlists or MY MUSIC, unless I re-scan all over again?

thanks YoursTruly

Thank you so much for an extremely useful script.

Thanks so much, Zvezdan. I've been putting off doing this for ages as I didn't really know what to do.

Your script made it super-easy.

Thanks and all the best.

Most addons can be removed from Tools > Extensions.

How do you remove this from your computer afterwards?

That's an old bug that hasn't been fixed. MediaMonkey has used it's own sort for drives for years: http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=6078

I don't have any idea, but I noticed that as well. It is some bug of the program itself and I cannot do anything about it.

Your script saved me several hours of waiting!
(I tried to adjust some path-structures for my tracks and then the MM4-"moved/missing files". This would be the same as re-read my entire collection...)
Thank you very much for sharing your script!

Small addition: Do you have any idea, why my path "Z" doesn't appears in the correct sort order?

That's not a big problem, just a litte bit confusing :wink:

Data posted at night, new version with workaround available first thing in the morning, and now I have all of my music back. That's the best tech support ever!

I've upgraded that database a a few times from older versions of MM. I'm not terribly surprised that it got a bit screwed up in the process...
