RB crash and empty database.

Hey Guys. Just got a new MacBook 16, installed RB latest version, all ok. Then I copied the datafile.edb, ExtData.edb and Pioneer folder from my old MacBook to my iCloud synced desktop of the new MacBook. Edited the masterdb entry in the recordbox3.settings, all after the guide from Pulse. Rekordbox only crashes directly on startup. So I moved all database files and the Pioneer folder to the system folder of the new MacBook (just to see, if its a problem with iCloud), but what ever I do, Rekordbox starts but stays completely empty. I have no idea. For now, my database is gone! Please, I need help. Thanks.

Here's my recommendation...

1) On the 16, delete these folders:

~/Library/Pioneer/rekordbox/
~/Library/Application Support/Pioneer/rekordbox/

2) Reinstall rekordbox.

3) On the old MBP, use the Library > Backup Library function and copy the zip file to the 16, then use Library > Restore Library.

Hello, thank you very much. Now I'e got the RB running, but I'm struggeling to move I in the cloud. I put the datafile.edb and ExtData.edb to a folder in my iCloud, edited the entrys masterDB and SamplerDirectory in the rekordbox3.settings, but from now on RB crashes immediately on startup. You see the first windows for a fragment of a second and gone... In he crashes folder the following appears:

datafile_20191219_121718_-99999_1.edb 18703632
ExtData_20191219_121718_-99999_1.edb 1126672


datafile_20191219_121757_-99999_1.edb 2864
ExtData_20191219_121757_-99999_1.edb 3000

So, on a non-cloud folder everything is running, but as soon I put everything in the cloud, this happens. iloud is still syncing everything, could that be a problem?

Jst did some more tests: whenever I put the Database on the iCloud and direct RB to that folder, it crashes. Is there a limitation in access-rights for RB?
