Moving Traktor to a new computer

[@DJBeefSixShotDJs]

Easy way of doing this is just to copy all folders in documents/native instruments/traktor 2 external then install new Traktor, and delete the new documents traktor folder that it made, then paste old one in its place, done, everything works as normal. I’ve done it a lot & never had a problem. Also back it up every week or 2.

Thanks Stuart, that's pretty much what I did. I just pointed it to the old folder, instead of the new one it created. Because my main path had a different name (changed the name of my hard drive) the system got confused. I forgotten that I'd changed the HD name, but I guess it worked to show people a real world example of what can happen. Many thanks for your comment. it helps to clarify it a little for anyone that may have been confused. ;-)

[@AngelFeliciano23]

What if your hard drive crashes and you didn’t and couldn’t back it up first?

[@iqnill]

What if you drop a computer and keep kicking it until bits fall out of it? You don't backup ;0?

[@traktortips]

Angel Feliciano then you’re in trouble! Maybe you can do a time capsule reboot?

[@traktortips]

Iq Nill haha. Good question!

[@stchris88]

What if you’re going from Mac to pc? Do Mac settings files in traktor transfer to pc?

[@traktortips]

All Traktor settings will transfer across.

[@stchris88]

@@traktortips Thank you for your response and all your videos. I'm still using traktor 2 and feel no need to upgrade.

[@traktortips]

St. Christopher nice one sir! You’re welcome. Glad you’re enjoying playing with music.

[@tinik9780]

is this work on windows too?

[@traktortips]

Tin Ik no idea sorry. The method is also searchable in the traktor help pages on the Native Instruments site!

[@mrkrotosuk]

You are diong this the hard way! All these settings and controller mappings can be all loaded with one file!

[@traktortips]

you have to go to the native access program

[@kvkcoils8011]

MrKrotos how?

[@TomJohnson121]

I am transferring from one pc to a new one ...watching this video it makes me wonder ...can you run Tractor on 2 pro on computers ? ?????? using the same email and same address -can yo have it on 2 computers ...I have the original download links when purchased ..BUT will those work or do I need need new ones from Tractor .....Found an easier way to copy music..-basically will be a new version on a second computer ..any problems I should know about before I start ???

[@bluepr1nt251]

Did you found out? Have you run on any problems?

[@traktortips]

TomJohnson121 I think it will kick you out of one if they’re both connected online. But otherwise I can’t see why it shouldn’t work.

[@DJMARINKOx]

i'm going to google the "Mark EG" generic midi mapping for traktor now ;)

[@traktortips]

haha...I didn't get along with it all that well to be honest. I made my own xone K2 mapping, that I'll post a video about soon.

[@erenjeiger6532]

Get to the fucking point , Jesus..
