i just bought a couple of tracks on iTunes and Beatport.. put them in one of my playlist's - but when exporting it it crashed.
I use that playlist a lot and that never happend before! Now, when i open the USB Stick, it has a couple of new folders called TempName and when i click them the rekordbox crashes. when i click the playlist i was trying to export in the pen, the rekordbox crashes also!
I tryed to change the name of the playlist in rekordbox and export it again, but RB crashed again, creating another TempName folder...
I use rekordbox a lot and i need it to work - hope everything's ok with that playlist and with the pen cause i'm leaving to play in a couple of minutes..
help me out, please!

Have you added a few subfolder to your playlist? I'm having a similar crashing problem and suspect that could be the culprit. In may case everything was fine until I started sorting tunes according to mixability and ended up with a lot of sub folders, and Rekordbox crashing.
Nop, I was just adding music to one of the playlists that I'm constantly using! I have like 10 playlists sorting out different music genre..
That one that made RB crash I've been using since the beginning...
I tried to export the music to another USB and it worked, but I don't know if the problem is the USB or whatever :-/
Sounds like it.
I see that your'e on a Apple machine, have you formatted your USB-sticks in HFS+? I recently shifted from FAT32 and experienced a major increase in exporting performance from Rekordbox. That may help you out, just make sure to not to select "case sensitive" when you format your USB-stick.
Actually I don't remember what format was the other USB, but this one is formatted in FAT32! But if you say HFS+ is better in terms of exporting I'll give it a go tomorrow!
Thanks! :-)
Well, it didn't solve my crashing problem but Rekordbox seems to be a lot happier exporting to USB's with HFS+. Way less spinning balls of death, speed of exporting doubled etc. Hope it solves your problem!
@Daniel > If it was one single song that caused the crash, I would suspect that file needs to be checked for errors. The first thing I'd try is removing the album artwork (you can remove and re-add it in two steps; sometimes all it needs is that action to fix it).
