Topic: Database problem

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

Hello everyone,

Sorry if this topic is in the wrong place, I'm new to this forum.

I have a question:

I had all my music on my external hard drive. Now this hard drive was showing signs of dying so I copied all my music to another external hard drive.
I also copied my Virtual DJ database file to this external hard drive.
Now, when I open Virtual DJ it says he sees this database, but when I click it nothing happens and it stays in Default Mode if I can call it that.
The old external hard drive is no longer in use, I do still have it.

Can I edit this database so it will show my old settings again? Or what can I do?

You're help will be much appreciated.

please make sure that the new external harddrive has the same drive letter and file structure ( path & folders) like the old one.
should be fine then
all track infos of the database refer to driveletter/ path/ folder of your files at the time you have scanned and added them to the database.
e.g.

F:/ Music/ Oldies/ Abba - Dancing Queen

if one or more letters are changed, none of db the entries will be found
