Laptop crashed. How do I restore tracks and cue point/bpm information from USB?

Hi, my Macbook recently crashed and I reinstalled everything. I don't have any music on my Macbook now, but I have a gig coming up so I want to just import the music from my USB, but I need the tracks AND the cue points and bpm info. I have no idea how to do this. I've been messing around for an hour but no success.

Can anyone help me with this? Thanks!

Sorry to inform you that it's not possible to recover the cue / loops etc. from an exported USB. If you have no backup of the old laptop or made a rekordbox backup you're out of luck :(

Damn... :( 

Well, thanks so much for the quick reply, now I know not to waste my time trying to get it back from the usb. But there's still hope. Thank god I do have a backup, the only thing is it's a bit corrupted, but maybe these settings are still intact!

How do I go about this? Where do I have to look?

I'v never done this myself but try to grab the ~/Library/Pioneer folder from the backup and copy it to the new laptop. Since you have nothing to lose you can afford to experiment a bit :)
