My harddrive has crashed but i have managed to get it to work as an external hard drive. I have created a new database for my songs however I would like to import my playlists from my old database into my new database. (the problem i see with this is the File Location is different from the hard drives) since Old Hard Drive is Vista and new one has windows 7 (Documents location is different).
Is there any way to get the playlist out of the database or do you guys/girls think it'll be easier to just make new playlists all together?\
Thanks
DD
Extract Playlists from Database?

Re: Extract Playlists from Database?
Use the old DB with MM and use Tools > Scripts > Export all Playlists. After that you will need to open each in Notepad and use it's replace function to change the base portion of the file path.

Re: Extract Playlists from Database?
If you mean about playlists stored in the database, you could try the "Restore Play History/Date Added/Playlists" add-on.
If you mean about .m3u playlists, you could try the "Export M3Us/Create Playlists for Child Nodes" add-on with its "Replace folder" option, e.g. you could replace "c:\blah\blah\" with "e:\blah\".
