If
you want to install the AlbumPlayer on a new system and you
want to transfer your database, then this can be done. You have to
copy your database and your music to the new system, and to
make it yourself easy put the music in exactly the same spot. So
if the music was in C:\MyMusic, put it in the new system also
in C:\MyMusic . If you don't do this then you need an additional step,
you have to redirect the paths in the AP database to a new
location.
See here step by step what to
do. Important note: After transferring, don't
use Scan
Disk For New Track Files immediately. First check if
current paths are correct, otherwise it will detect everything as new files and
you will end up with double albums and songs.
If anything might go wrong start over and
use your backup made in first step.
Make a backup
of C:\AlbumPlayerData (default DB
locaton).
Copy C:\AlbumPlayerData to your new
system.
Copy your music files to the new system (preferably same drive and folder
name)
Install AP on the new
system
Start AP, it will ask for the database, confirm that it is in
C:\AlbumPlayerData
Optional if music is in new location. Use the
function Redirect
Track Files To New Location
to fix AP
paths.
Check
if your music plays well and paths are all updated
fine
