PC had crashed, but he'd backed up all his data so quickly installed a new machine and copied iTunes across. It was a big job, we'd ripped his CDs a couple of years ago and it was a big library then. One sigh of relief, but wait ---- where are all the playlists?
Sorry, but they're lost.
If you back up the location that stores your music tracks that is all you have secured. Sure that's the main thing you need to keep hold of but it's the music, only the music and nothing but the music. Your playlists live elsewhere so unless you can fire up iTunes on the old PC, sorry, those playlists are lost.
That's why we created a quick guide for clients of our CD ripping service explaining how they can backup playlists before the worst happens. The guide is free and you can get it from www.podserve.co.uk - backup now, before it's too late.
