Cant Import from HD into second Computer?
Hi Guys! HELP!
I setup Hoster 3.19 onto a second computer (being a laptop). I transfered all the kma files over to a folder on the laptop and Hoster recognises the disc numbers and I can also do a search of songs. Thats all sweet. I have since bought more songs and want to add them but I cant Import any songs at all. Is this because Ive setup Hoster onto a second computer? ANOTHER PROBLEM! I have also since lost everything on my main computer. It CRASHED!! Do I now make my laptop the primary Hoster computer? I would appreciate your advice and help please!! Lance ![]() |

There is no Primarary/Secondary designation for Hoster or MTU. Both installations are equal and have all the same functions. You don't say whether you are importing from hard drive or CD. Is this XP or Vista?

Yes, I am trying to import from my hard drive. I have Win XP as my OS. All my CDG & Mp3 files are in one folder. I have tried the same procedure Ive always followed to import all the files that are in Hoster now. This is my procedure: 1. Open Hoster / Import Tracks / Import hard drive files. 2. Click “MP3G” and the “Choose folder” window opens 3. I click a file, then click “Select” and all the files appear in the “Import MP3G Hard Drive Files” window. I click a file and the “Define Field Order” appears. Ive got all that setup, then I click “Add Files”. 4. The files then appear in the “Track List Window” Before I can Import them, I have to select a “Brand” name which is directly under the “Define Field Order”. The cursor defaults to the little “Brand” window. But this is where the problems start. There are no Options to choose in the “Brand” window?! Its “BLANK!” and I know there are suppose to be some name options in there? I’ve even tried typing a name in there and as soon as I hit the “Add Files” button, it crashes EVERYTIME!! Thanx for your help in advance J Lance J |

This is a Bucket database problem and usually happens if there are two copies or none.
Check the C:\MTU\Hoster folder and see if there is a Bucket.mdb file in it. Then check C:\Program Files\Micro Technology Unlimited\Hoster\databases and see if there is a copy there. If you have one in the first location and one in the second location delete the one in the second location as it is confusing the program. If you have none in the first and one in the second then move the file from the second to the first. If you have none either location, re-install.

If these are indeed kma files you should be able to go to tools, merge kma file, and merge them into your database. kma files have all the brand info ect.

A database folder is not used anymore. In the C:\MTU\Hoster folder should be Songs.mdb, Songs_Backup.mdb and Bucket.mdb.
Re-installing should put the Bucket back and won't change anything else.
