Well I was able to get the backup external HD to work. Apparently it wasn't a problem with copying the file from one HD to the other it was when I tried to
"build database" for the new external under a different drive number. When I hooked up the new external and changed the drive letter to the original one hoster worked fine. What worries me is that if I had my music already on an external HD, purchased Hoster, and then build database would I receive the same error. Will hoster only work by first importing directly through Hoster and staying with the original drive letter? Or was should I have deleted the file songs.mg (not sure what the exact name is) before I build database? If starting from scratch with music already on external HD would Hoster have a problem building database directly from the external HD? Just confused why building database didn't work just by switching drives. bob
