lrvdb Posted May 11, 2008 Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 Where are my SS playlists stored, and how can I backup and restore them? When I had to rebuild my PC a while back, I was able to rescue my SS music files and albums, but lost all my playlists. (I'm using SS 4.2).

Avrin Posted May 11, 2008 Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 I can only tell you that those are stored in "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Sony Corporation\SonicStage\Packages\MtData.mdb". The file is actually a Microsoft Access database with a really crazy and stupid structure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lrvdb Posted May 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 Ahhh, yes, I see it. In fact, a half dozen or so databases, but only the MtData.mdb actually seems to be updating. Maybe the others are created at installation of the software. Well, that's helpful. I'll backup this whole folder occasionally, and deal with the details of restoring it if and when the need arises. Perhaps I can just copy over that one database file.Thanks for your help!L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fyz123 Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 Hi, Backup of the mdb file is rather necessary. On the other hand, sometimes I have no backup and I will try some tools to restore my mdb file. I would like to use a tool called Advanced Access Repair. I have used it to repair many corrupt Access MDB files on my damaged disks successfully. Just post to hope this still can help and this tool can be used at last.
