Migrating from winXP to Win7

Hello,

  I read therekordbox migration thing, and as I understand it because the music files will be migrated to a diff folder location, that I cannot migrate in anyway?

 

Thanks

Tony

You can migrate your library without a problem. If you have a username, make sure it is identical on both machines. Copy the RB system files, then copy your audio files anywhere and use relocate feature, which will automatically find all your tracks.

@Tony > Koobah is correct. Once you follow the instructions TO THE LETTER you shouldn't have any problems.

Yes relocation sounds good, so follow the instructions here:

Then just find missing files and relocate?

 

Thanks

Yes, once you follow those instructions exactly you should be fine. There are some important points to note (e.g. username on both machines) so pay close attention.
