Duplicate Book Id Numbers

[PastMember]

Is there a way to bring the songs back into the computer other than manually reimporting each disc.

Yes.

How do i bring them back in using the external hard drive so that i do not have to reimport with the discs. What do I have to delete so that I do not have duplicate book id no.'s

I have either imported from discs, being careful to do them in order or have used the external hard drive to mass import. I did not know if I could delete the song.mdb and the back up and create a new song.mdb. It seems like Doug had tole me to delte songs. mdb,song back and something else and then rebuild the database(this was bay back on 2.015 or so when chartbuster had a problem with the song on a disc). Are there files i can delete and then reuild the database.

I have the 40+ discs backed up on an external hard drive as the kma files that were imported by hoster. can I get them back into my show without reimporting each individual disc? I had to tell a few singers this weekend that I had a computer problem with the 40+ discs and that I did not have them with me. they were understanding this weekend but I will neede to have them back in the show by next thursday when I run the show there again. can I use the external to reimport the kma's and then rebuild the database?? Do I neede to delete a song.mdb?? If anyone knows please let me know.

The only way to fix the duplicate BookId's is to reimport the .kma files from the CD. You would need to delete the songs.mdb and also find the exact .kma files for the duplicates, remove the .kma files, rebuild the songs database and then reimport those 40 discs. Then it would be all back running correctly.

thanks, I was hoping for a quicker fix. but it sounds like 3.2xx will do that.

I have about 45 duplicates. I assume the list reflects the songs that were replaced. So reimporting what is on that list from the original CD will create new book i.d. numbers and everthing will be ok from that point on.

Looks like I imported 3 discs on my Laptop instead of my portable PC. Never even thought about getting out of sync.

Glad this feature is there and will pinpoint which discs and songs were affected.
