I have linked a music folder from my computer A to Musicbee. On a different computer B I have the same Music folder in Musicbee. In this computer B I created a playlist and exported it and then imported it on the computer A. The play list shows up but none of the songs are linked to the Music Library. When I click on a song to play it wants me to search for the file location. Is there a way to link the whole playlist to the music folder in one step?

It sounds like the paths to the music files are different on each PC. You can check this by opening the playlist file in any text editor (e.g. Notepad++) and checking the folder paths. If they are not correct for your computer A then MusicBee will not find them and I don't think there is a way to link to all the files in a playlist in one go.

Other than making sure that the full path on both computers is identical, the easiest way to do this would be to edit the playlist file before importing into your computer A (using a replace tool to select the wrong part of the path and replace it with the correct path).


(Could a Mod move this to questions)
