Reimporting a song problem

[Sherri]

We deleted a song out of hoster and when we went to reimport the song, it said, 'The book id you have selected is already in use, please select another book id". We have never had this problem with reimporting. It always automatically went back in under the right book id. What are we doing wrong? We are running hoster 3.006.

Thanks

You may have imported in a different location, for instance if you are trying to import to "Sound Choice Spotlight SC8101 Book ID 8101" and you get that notice it might be because Bookid 8101 is associated with "Sound Choice SC8101" (minus the spotlight).If none of your imported songs from that disk show then that's probably the case. At some point in the past i think the database was expanded or changed or something i'm not sure.
I think you can get that info from the search funtion on the playlist, IE do a bookid search for that disk # and I think it will show you how it was imported. You can also get that info from Accel if you have it.

I've had a bunch of these, they are always there, just a pain to find sometimes.

Hope that helps.

What is the BRAND and the DiscID of what you deleted?

[gduns - with the Lord]

after deleting, you need to rebuild the songs database, or it will still see it in there.

THE BOOKID ARE LINKED TO THE SONGS MDB
SO WHEN you delete a disc from the hard drive you
must always delete the songs mdb and the back up songs mdb
then rebuild you songs mdb and you will then have the book id free to use again

now if you are just doing one track from a cdg then you dont have to rebuild
if it is the same disc and you are putting it in the same place
put the disc in and pick that track in will write over the old track
hope that helps

Thank you to all who replied to my post. I believe what Sam was saying is the problem. The disks are SAVA and I believe we have them under SAVA and SAV. I am going to try that and I am sure that will fix my problem.
Thanks again,
