Restore lost DJ collections from a USB

So apparently if i'm not mistaken Pioneer DJ added new functionality designed to restore lost DJ collections using Rekordbox formatted USB drives. I have an old USB with my old playlists and would love to upload them into my new computer. If anyone has accomplished this or knows how to do it please share. I have tried everything.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the link about restoring the d-base from the USB using the import playlist in R-box 5.x.  I am having an issue doing this b/c I stayed on version 3.3, and now when I put my USB stick in with R-box 5.2 open, it complains the device is corrupted, but in R-box 3.3 it's fine.  Any help or ideas would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance!!  -Qua'Leh

There was a bug with 5.2 that gave this error message, but if you upgrade to 5.2.2 it is resolved.

I just verified and I am using 5.2.2 and was getting the corrupted device message, but in 3.3.0 it is fine.  -Qua'Leh

I wonder if perhaps there's something about a rekordbox 3 database that changed and as a result is not being read properly by v5.

If your USB drive has been sync'd with the database in v3, then you would be safe to format it and re-export everything from v5.
