Files on hard drive now showing Zero Bytes

Hi,

 

Recently installed Rekordbox, transferred 2 folders of music which are all my newest tunes. Went back to play a file a few days later and got the error 'Can't load track : Unknown Format' 

 

Went into my hard drive and tried to open the one of the files and it wouldn't open. I then noticed all the files in the folder showed Zero Bytes! 

Has anyone else experienced this? I haven't backed up the tunes as the mac is new and hadn't got round to it so I'm guessing Ive lost all my music! 

Is there anything I can do to prevent this happening? Not happy!

Hi, the same thing happend to me a few weeks ago, I am an experienced computer/Rekordbox user. I can't figure out the problem.

Somebody have a clue ?

Thank's

Lee Heryet

Not good. Is there anywhere else to ask where I might get a response?

@Lee > Transferred two folders of music how? Transferred from / to where?

Lee Heryet

Uploaded to Rekordbox from external hard drive

Gavin

@Lee > Ok, so lets just get things straight. You had two folders on an external harddrive. You transferred the two folders onto your internal drive and imported to rekordbox? Now those files on your internal drive are showing zero bytes?

Lee Heryet

No.

 

I imported the tracks straight from the external hard drive. I

don't store music on my internal drive as its quite small. 

Gavin

@Lee > Do you always have the external hard drive connected when you open rekordbox?

If you navigate to the files through Finder / Explorer view, do the files appear corrupted?

Lee Heryet

Yeah I guess so otherwise I wouldn't be able to open the tracks.

 

The files look the same just show zero bytes.

Gavin

@Lee > Ok, please standby while I enquire with the engineers.
