[quote=mindonstrike;66291]Since Skybird has edited on both computers simply using a copy of songs.mdb will only trade one problem for another. If Skybird is using a single external HD between two computers, then yes, using a copy of the database would be the quicker easy way to keep up-to-date, but the problems need to be fixed first.

To clarify, yes I only used a single external HD between two computers, meaning all my kma songs are on the external HD. And, yes, I edited using 2 different computers, with Hoster on each. However, the MDB is in the Hoster folder of the C: drive of the respective computer. So, when I edited on 1 computer, the mdb on that would be updated. Is that correct? If editing only changes the header of the kma file that on the external drive, then how does the MDB on the C: drive know that I've edited a song?

So, it sounds to me like if editing actually changes the kma header itself, when I copy ALL kma files to 1 folder on my new computer & rebuild the MDB, the new MDB should show ALL songs including all edits, regardless of which computer I used to edit the individual songs. Is that right?
