[quote=rmryanjr;70708]All my files are on the same ext hd. I want to merge the files my goal is to add files from different folders and fill unused bookids along with adding new ones. i used songverter to convert the zips (not all) into kma files. Also, used the import for other zips.

I tried two different processes. First I tried to merge files without rebuilding the data base with the folder containing the files i want to merge and it immediately shut down. next I rebuilt the data base adding the folder to my list. Then tried to merge that folder and it made it to file 282 of 44k and shut down.

I'm wondering if I understand the process of how to merge. I've read the manual over and over. That being said it did start the merge process and then stoped at file 282 and shut down.

i'm not sure if i am getting this right i'm no expert, but are you saying that all your kma files are in the same drive, but on diff. files? is there a way you can just click and drag them into just one file, the only problem was if you click and drag those files ( if you have duplicate files you wont be able to click and drag them ) , unless you delete the duplicate files ,then open up hoster and click on " save to folder " in the import screen and select the drive where ever you have all your files, then open up the built song data base
select and delete the drive on the drop down screen, then select the same drive and click on rebuild song data base..
