importing playlist
Hi please someone help
I recently wiped my hard drive of laptop and went from windows 8 to win 10 . I saved all my playlists onto external harddrive but when I go to import them to rekordbox it comes up with 1 or more files could not be imported . When I look at the log its all files that are in my dropbox in different folders

How are you trying to "import" them?

Through file - import - import playlist

Yeah, that's not the best way to do it when trying to recover from an export device. I'll post up a video with instructions a bit later.

@Dick > How to ensure it will appear in the devices list:
- it's connected by USB
- it's formatted FAT32 or HFS+

NTFS can be used as source drive for importing music to the collection, but as it's not FAT32 or HFS+, which are compatible for use with Pioneer DJ devices, it won't be detected as a "Device" under rekordbox and can't be used for the import procedure here.
You can clone the drive to a FAT32 drive, or use a utility to change the filesystem type, but be sure it's a non-destructive change!
