lamplighter Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Hello all- I am looking to install the latest SS (4.2 ?) but my question is;When I install it will it automatically copy my music files from the "My Music" folder in My Documents into Sonic Stage ?I do not want this to happen, basically want to have an empty SS and then fill it with particular stuff, I don't need every song in there.If it does copy automatically how can I stop this from happening ?Thank you for any help !!!!Cheers, LL- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borat Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 No SS won't do this automatically, but once installed it will ask you to scan for music files on your hard drive to import into SS. Just answer 'no' and you'll be alright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stuge Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 @lamplighter:Are you upgrading the previous SonicStage ?,if yes ,then do install from same Sony site from where you last updated it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avrin Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 (edited) Stuge, I would advice not to upgrade to SS42 from any previous version, even SS40, or else you'll get some remains of that version, like Open MG Limited Patches, etc., which are no longer used in SS42. Better backup your "My Library" wherever you want, uninstall any previous version of SS including all its components, clean up your computer of any traces of those (except the backup), and then install SS42 from scratch, and restore the library from the backup.But it seems to me that this is not the question here.lamplighter, if you install SS42 from scratch, it will not automatically spoil or import any of your music files, including those in the "My Music" folder. Although it will offer you an option to scan your hard drive for music files, but the "No" radio button will be selected by default. Don't worry! As far as I remember, this will even be the case during an upgrade. Edited February 7, 2007 by Avrin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lamplighter Posted February 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 Cheers for the help guys, I finally got some time and downloaded it again, no problem. The funny part is that I had an old version of SS on this exact laptop and I deleted it a while back and when I downloaded this new version it automatically threw in the songs I had on the old/deleted version of SS !!Not what I expected but cool anyway, at least it was not too much stuff.Thanks again, Cheers, LL- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
