Re: Synchronise songs database on two seperate laptops

As always, your assistance will be appreciated.

Kind regards

The simple way is to open Hoster and at the top right click, on HELP. You will see a drop down list. Click on the BACKUP/RESTORE and follow the prompts. Set your backup to be stored on a flash or thumb drive. Name it what you want or leave it set for the default. After the backup is complete, take the flash drive to the second computer and do the same thing except you will select restore this time. Again direct it to the flash drive and select the backup you saved.

This won\\\'t necessarily match your saved playlist but you will have your singers and song list matched. If you want to match the playlist also, respond back here and I will try to explain how but it isn\\\'t as simple as the backup/restore method. Good luck.
