New pc, keep database

Postby dwmd65 » Tue Jul 03, 2012 10:03 pm

I had my server crash the other day. Until I can purchase another server, I would like to use my backup copy.

I had my mediamonkey.ini configured with the following

DBName=\\server\MP3\DataBase\mm.db with my music residing in \\server\MP3

I would like to import my current database so I keep all playlist and stats. My current location is E:\mp3 and my database is located at E:\MP3\DataBase\mm.db

Can someone please help me so I can use my current database and use my mp3's that currently reside at f:\mp3?

Thanks

Dave

In most cases File > Locate Moved/Missing Files will work to find the files in their new location.

Thanks Lowlander. Worked perfect.

I'm confused what the difference in doing this as opposed to what you suggested in another post.

This seems way more complicated than the find missing/moved tracks option.

Thanks again.
