well I tried pushing the link button again and it shows "link but still no tracks. FAT32 I have no idea what that is, how do I tell?

ok I'll try that now. so how do I change it if its is NTFS?

OK it says FAT32 so I'm assuming thats good.

hmm ok, geez I thought these things were supposed to be easy I'm afraid what surprises I'm going to encounter when I try to hook up my Serato SL3 to these decks.

Maybe a stupid point, but are the two players linked via an ethernet cable?

The Format worked! thanks Morgo. I also hooked up my serato and that works fine to I just noticed the cheapper USB cable on one deck caused it to take longer to read/link, I'll get a new cable today.

couple of things I'm not too happy with 1, SLIP MODE DOESN'T WORK :( well when its linked up with serato, why would Pioneer leave this feature out????

2. Why doesn't the track I load up start at my saved cue point in serato? I have to adjust it and make another with the CDJ?

other than those 2 downfalls it is more accurate....awsome!

OK Pulse I'll try adjusting it on serato. Thanks for the help guys.

well my problem is that i cant link my cdj with my laptop.i have a pair of them and i am using a lan hub.the thing is the other player works fine when linked to the laptop but the other one seems unable to play tracks from rekordbox but the player is visible on the bottom panel of rekordbox.and this problem doesnt occur when using usb sticks.please help!

@Shahir Ashraf > It might be best to start a new thread considering your issue is different than what occurred in this thread.

Some quick possibilities though:
1. Ensure LAN cable is fully inserted into players, and anywhere else they are connected.
2. Make sure you're using a LAN switch, and not an ethernet hub or wireless router.
3. Make sure the LAN switch has no software controls on it.
4. Make sure you shut down your firewalls and Wifi on your computer when connecting.
5. If none of these work, try using different LAN cables, or just rotate the cables to different players to see if the issue moves to another player.

ok first of all i thought that the link function is supported by all kinds of devices (wireless router/lan switch/ehternet hub) and actually im using a wireless router but even if i connect the lan cable directly to my laptop the same problem occurs.cdj appears on rekordbox but cant load tracks.any ways to fix this?

@Shahir > The "Link" function is supported by devices other than a switch, it is just recommended to use an unmanaged switch because routers and hubs tend to have firewall programs and management software which can cause issues. For your situation, have you ensured the cables are fully plugged in at both ends and have you switched the ethernet cable with a different player to see if it's possibly just the cable?

Thanks,

If you try to link like devices, you need a crossover cable.  That will solve your issue of linking two CDJs with each other.  The LAN cables given with the players are straight-through cables and will not allow your CDJs to communicate.  Simple fix is to take the cable and change one end if you you know how, or buy one from the store.  Hope this helps!

Ok, glad it works for you.  Niether of the two LAN cables worked for me, so I made a crossover cable and it works perfect. 

some of the lag cables that came with the decks did have issues, The ones that came with mine would disconnect if they moved at all in the player, Once i bought new ones, they worked perfect

meant LAN, not lag

I was hoping they were auto switching, and I did not have a cable tester here to test the cables themselves.  Thanks for the heads up on the history of bad cables.  I will make my own in the future.
