Clearing Roxio Library file
This works for Roxio 6 but should work for other Roxio editions
If you have allot of music ( I have almost 100 gigs): First go to control panel/Folder options/view tab/put a check in "show hidden files and folders Than go to: C: / Documents & Setting / "user name" folder/ Application Data / Roxio / Delete everything in the DATA folder (but not the folder) Launch Roxio, it will ask if you want to " add files to media library, say yes. (While in the roxio folder you can share the "playlist" folder if you want to share your play lists with other computers. You can also delete unwanted play list in this folder If you have a small music file: 1. Launch Audio central 2. Go to: Tools/Options/Library and make sure in the " Automatically scan files for audio files" is NEVER. 3. Go to the Library view (not playlist or disk). 4.Under Artist select ALL 5. Highlite a song in the list. 6. Go to Edit, click on Select All. 7. Press the Delete button on your KEYBOARD!!!!! (don't use mouse), MAKE SURE "Delete tracks from my Computers NOT checked or you will delete the actual music file on your hard drive. 8. Choose yes after you've ensured the option for deleting from computer is NOT checked. ( You may have to do steps 3 thru 8 a few times to delete all files). 9. When all files are deleted, from the file menu, choose ADD FILES TO LIBRARY and let the program search your hard drive for music files. (make sure the " Scan the following folder for audio files " is pointing to your music files). 10. If you changed Tools/Option/Library " Automatically Scan Files for Audio Files " to never, you can set it back to your liking. Don't be surprised if Roxio locks up. If it does use Control/Alt /Delete to end Roxio then start Roxio again. Paul |
