Moving Playlist between computers.

I had this problem (multiple relocating) and ask for help from the Team. We didn't find a solution for this unless tracks were in the same folder.
But I will test It again now. Thank a lot 'cause if it's working now it's a great help for a lot of us.

Tried again but I have the same problem:
Cross finds the missing files but I can't select more than one so I select one and "drive" Cross to the new location. Cross finds this track and asks if I want to look for more tracks. If there are in this folder it finds them if not I have to select another one and do the same from the beginning to relocate all the other tracks from other folders.

Seems like the steps... Select 1 from the list, relocate, confirm relocate others,. done for all that follow the same change in path...

Please post (or PM) screen captures and maybe I can shed a light

Off the first you're able to relocate
Old full path (location+ filename) as in Cross collection
Old full path as in DOS (not Explorer)

relocate and then:
New full path (location+ filename) as in Cross collection
New full path as in DOS (not Explorer)

next the info of the first (any) track that you expect to be able to auto relocate
Old full path (location+ filename) as in Cross collection
Old path as in DOS (not Explorer)

You do have to use a commandline tool (like DOS) as graphical UI do show some characters styled.

Will you install Cross to the other laptop?
If yes then you have to:
- Copy to the other laptop your collection file (this includes pls and cue points).
- Your Peak files folder (the folder that Cross create the files when analyzing tracks). From Cross's preferences user the "General" tab and fix your "Analysis File Location".

Be sure that collection (all your music tracks) follows the same drive letter (c,d or whatever) and folder as your laptop.

The problem is that you can not make "relocate" to the whole collection of tracks.
I have done this many times and all my playlists, cues, loops etc are there.

I backed up my collection (no media files included) and loaded the database into my backup computer with an external HDD with the media files (a tablet PC which had some of the mp3s already stored internally). Relocating my 20.000+ tune collection took maybe a minute. Worked really well...
