Would be a cool move if you took some of this revenue and purchased the tracks in your DJ library to support the artists who made the music. It is clear to see from your video that many of them have been illegally downloaded from filesharing sites as they have the URL's in the filenames. That said, I do appreciate the tutorial. Thanks for making it. ✌
Hey. Thank you so much for the compliment. I always try to make my videos as simple as possible. 👍 Thanks for subbing I hope to help you in the future too.
I think I just tested this and it works across the cloud also cause it's zipped. this is quite literally the ONLY TUTORIAL I found online that not only made sense, but answered and fixed my issue. BANGER video, banger instructions. much love
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! You saved me years of hard work setting up my music in rekordbox. I was close to giving up transferring my rekordbox to my new computer and starting from scratch.
@@djdeepbhamra question my friend fantastic information as always 🙌🙌🙌👊🏻 is there a certain size USB for me just to back up my rekordbox & keep safe, does that have to be Phat 32 I’m thinking of getting a 128 or could I get a bigger 1 ..gb..????? just for the back up thank you Kris
Just got to this video after having to import my whole library (over 3k tracks) to my new mac. I've tried to import tracks in the past following the Dropbox process when I changed from another pc to my latest before the mac and it was a complete pain, aside from not even importing the whole tracklist properly. This absolutely crushes it, thank you so much for this, you're a legend.
Thanks for the helpful video, for all of the people with rekordbox 5 that have to relocate 1 by 1 song, I found the way to do all one at the same time. You go to top left corner to "files" and select "show all of the missing files". It will appear all of the list of songs that are missing. Then when you select all of those songs, you click to relocate, and select one song for example, then it will ask you "do you want to use this location to find the other songs?", you click yes, and it will relocate all of your songs automatically. It's like in rekordbox 6 but a bit hidden haha
YES! It worked out! I waited with this so long as the last time I switched from Mac, I lost all my tracks. Partly because I did not have an account to simply log in and see everything also because I am not very fond of the US of version 6. But I am 100% sure that after a couple of hours I will get used to it.
I am using computer at home. I would like to bring with me my macbook for one week. I dont need all playlists, I would like to copy to macbook just two folders with playlist. Can I do it somehow or I have to back up full library?
Is it the same principle - copy tracks over to new HD and then when it can't find them just point to new folder (providing you've kept the folder structure the same)?
Superb instructional video! Many thanks - you took the time to actually demonstrate click for click progress - I've finally managed to succeed after a full day of watching other sub-par instructions. Top job!!
Can you switch between OS ? I've got and old macbrook pro and want to buy a new (windows) laptop. So Macbookpro > Backup liberary on external drive with music > External drive to windows PC > Windows pc restore backup? Thanks !!
In the past I've backed up library incl.music files and it restored exactly the same, with all the playlists and everything. However if you backup without music files you can not relocate multiple files - not even 1 playlist at the time...you have to do it 1 by 1...the autorelocate function in RB6 may be handy..
Hello Brother... mene apne hard disk me song ka folder banaya hai aur usme mene mp4 me hi direct cues add kiya hua hai... ab muje vo pura ka pura folder with cues mere laptop me copy karna hai to kese kar sakte hai? most important cues vese ka vese add hona chahiye...
Hi i there a certain size hard drive or USB that I can get just to backup & store my rekordbox on for if disaster strikes, obviously if this happens I’m gunna want to restore of this back up device, is there anything I need to know before I purchase my backup storage device, thank you Kris
Nice video bro. Can you please help? I got an old external hard drive and need to upgrade to a new external hard drive what will be the best way to transfer my music collection with all my databases? I'm used MacBook pro with an Intel processor and rekordbox Thanks for your help.
hello dj deep bhamra, I want to ask if the lists I have in folders can be transferred to the new laptop and the cue points remain as they were on the old laptop... I would be very happy if you could answer me...
Hi Great Video. Can an you advise on this. I have a 2nd rekordbox computer that already has an exact copy of my music files from my primary laptop. Both have the same identical folder structure (H:\Music) so I only backed up the database without music files. When i imported the database to the 2nd computer I expected the files to be readily available without the need to relocate since they are already in the same drive location and folder structure as my primary computer which is (H:\ Music) Yet, after the import rekordbox on the 2nd computer is showing the file location as (C::\Music) I do not want to use relocate if I don’t have to as this could take a full day. Is my expectation wrong, and I must use relocated regardless , even if the file structures of the two computers are exactly the same? Thank in advance for any insight on this
Hey. The thought process is absolutely right. But your expectation can not be met coz the address (H:\Music) is different from the other computer coz it also takes the computer address as a part of the location. So even if the folder location is same in different computers the file location will not be. Coz both computers are names differently when installing OS. Hence relocating is the only option.
Can you help Deep - My Music Collection is on a 2TB Lacie Drive and I was on a 2017 iMac with RB version 5 - I now have a 2019 iMac and downloaded latest version of RB 6 ready for transfer - followed your instructions, dont want to move the music obviously as Im going to use the same External Drive on the new machine. I made back up which gave me a Zipped file which on restore on the new machine says "can't restore" so unzipped the file to a folder with a large number of items in - which one do I use to restore on the new machine version 6 - by the way I tried "import your library from version 5 or earlier" it asks for RB to be restarted then just opens with no further activity - can you help please ?
Hi DJ Deep Bhamra, thank you for tour precious suggestions. Just a question: after backing up the library without the songs and remounting it as it is in the new pc, when I relocate the songs using Rekordbox 5 in the new PC, does it search any file in all directories and subdirectories or I have to know precisely in which directory is located? I hope I have been clear enough. Thanks
Hi there, I'm a little confused by a few things. I have backed up my library from my old laptop onto an external harddrive, and have then restored the library in rekordbox on my new laptop. I am now unsure how to get all of my playlists into my new rekordbox, how do I backup my old computer's library without the songs? And secondly, when I try to relocate the missing files, it isn't working. Even when I specifically put the correct location into the database search in preferences (ie. in my 'Music' finder). Can you help?
I really hope you will see this and help me out regarding this video. Is it possible to export backup ‘without music’ to google drive, then, take my actual folder where all songs are located (To clear up any confusion, not the exported ‘with music’ backup but literally the location of my songs in a folder- and then upload that folder to google drive as it is. Question is: can i using this way relocate the music files on the new laptop with cur points saved? Thanks in advance i hope you see this soon as i have a gig in literal 18 hours from now 😢 on a friends laptop who lives miles away.
I have a ?, I did the migration assistant and it copied everything from rekordbox to my new laptop but the Dropbox made a second folder called Dropbox (old) and then re made a new one called just “Dropbox” everything looks fine in the new folder on my new computer, but my upload to cloud feature is disabled as the new version of rekordbox is logged out of Dropbox on my new laptop. It asks to activate this device and then it said it will “merge” everything I just wanted to make sure I keep all my playlists. Everything works great right now but it seems the cloud stuff is off, some tracks are in the cloud some arnt but they’re on my laptop in the Dropbox folder and some are in my other previous folders before I signed up for the cloud. Just wanna make sure it doesn’t wipe my playlists. Thanks deep!
Does this work for music that is in the "collection" but from a streaming service such as SoundCloud or does it not let you backup because not actually "bought"??
Hey, Thanks for this Video.

🔥🔥 Absolutely bro. I have always felt it was necessary 😇
Thanks for your comment today.
DJ Deep Bhamra what if i wanna backup my external hard drive with cue points to another external . How do i get my cue points to the other external?
@@djdeepbhamra I don't really see the reason for that step though? Could just restore with the backup without the music straight away.
