Hi, thank you for the best video. I am reaching out to inquire about the possibility of syncing my Rekordbox profile with a new Mac device. Currently, I am on free plan with libraryand would like to explore the options available for transferring my library to another device because my friend bought new Mac and we would like to be using these 2 devices with 1 rekordbox library. I am uncertain about the process and capabilities of syncing my existing profile with a new device under the free plan. Can I use this procedure in my rekordbox? Thank you

You can only share libraries across different computer with the Creative subscription, not the free plan. The free plan has a trial function but this only works for a few files. The methode I talk about in this video works for all subscriptions. I show it with the Free Plan.

Hi Jeroen, bedankt voor deze handige video. Heb 'm twee keer gekeken voordat ik de verhuizing naar nieuwe laptop (beide HP geen Mac) begon. Alles gaat goed, tot de import (3:27 in jouw video). Bij het importeren van de zip, krijg ik direct de melding: "Het herstellen van de verzameling is mislukt". Op m'n oude laptop gebruikte in Rb5, nu Rb6. Wat kan ik fout doen? Zip file is ongeveer 5Gb. Ben benieuwd! Groet Giel.

You best upgrade to RB v6 so you can use the Auto Relocate function for quickly relinking your files. You should be able to do it manually in v5 but it is a daunting job that gets repetitive and annoying pretty quickly. You should select al files in the Missing File Manager, then browse to a folder, hit Relocate and see what it finds. Then select all files in Missing File Manager again, browse to other folder and keep repeating untill all is relocated. In RB6 it is just assiging the main music folder and hit Auto Relocate to relink all. What controller do you use with Rekordbox 5 ?

Ehm that is very weird and I do not have a clear answer to that to be honest. Isn't there some error being mentioned ? How big is your collection, perhaps its so massive it gives such error ? Did you do the backup WITHOUT music files ? Those need to be transfered seperately. If you have big collection that files could be so long that your computer times out before it can open/read it.

Perhaps you did not change the file/disk permissions for rekordbox so it cannot access the location where you have stored your backup. Check in the preferences of OSX and go to : Preferences > Security & Privacy and make sure that Rekordbox is in the column on the right at the 'Files & Folders' category. And also check if the slider for Rekordbox in the 'Full Disk Access' section is toggled on.

Nice tutorial how about if your not using dropbox and want to store your music locally? I've tried the same process copied the music onto my new Mac and set the auto relocate folder.

Any ideas how to fix this? 😉

As I mention in the video it does not matter where that folder is. At the end Dropbox is just a folder on your computer that could be anywhere. Not sure how large your collection is but the auto relocator should work faster than that. Perhaps if you try to link files on a network drive or a slow USB drive it can take longer, but normally it should be done quickly. Are you sure you changed the settings and pointed the auto relocator to the folder that holds your music ? Do not point it to the root of a drive or disk, always point it to a folder !

Hi! I got all my library stored on an external drive, and I was looking to buy a new SSD for backing up my library, as well as looking into cloud storage options. 2 days ago for some unknown reasons, rekordbox gave me the error saying that the "Device library is corrupted". If I ignore the message and click no to remove my collection, everything seems to be working fine. Rekordbox lets me preview the songs,playlists are still there, files on the drive are still there.. So after this happening I did my backup and now I'm not sure how to move from here. Any tips? I was thinking to buy the new SSD as we speak,move the music files and database over there,and see if it fix that..

'Device Library Corrupted' is a notification you can get when device are not removed properly (Always use USB STOP and hold it till blinking of device stops). This is not a notification you should get from the main source drive of your files. Is the error still appearing or was it only once ? Sometimes ejecting and reconnecting a device solves stuff

When I try your method, I get the warning "The configuration file cannot be read. Restart with a backup file", but after this message it started analyzing. Next I received "you have to resync my tag after starting rekordbox 6" and after declining this, "My Tag will not be exported because this device is synced with another computer."

That 'Move Database option' you can better leave alone if you do not know exactly what you are doing. That option moves your database (so it will be removed from source location, which is not always what you want). If you get that 'corrupted' message but rekordbox starts analyzing after a restart is nothing to worry about. After that analyze it should work as intentded. Cancel that resyncing of the MyTags, if you are not actively using that, that second message is just confirmation of your choise. MyTags is an extended way of organising, but I doubt you are using these tags so best to just Not sync them.
