hi,
i have been using a hercules djcontrol instinct coupled with djuced 18 for the past year. all of a sudden i cannot access all my music within the itunes library. i connect the controller, open djuced 18 and then select the itunes option from the left hand bar, in turn i then select library and the usual display of songs appears in the central box. the bottom bar indicates that all my songs have been recognised (around 15,000 of them), but when i search for specific songs, they do not show up in the central box, so i cannot utilise them on the decks. for example, if i search wham! it shows no music, but my library contains 6 songs by that artist. i have tried everything i can think of, including a range of sources within the menu, but nothing makes any difference. help please, i rely on the money from my djing...
Hello,
Have you checked in iTunes if you still find all the song in iTunes?
As Djuced 18 uses iTunes database for the iTunes folder, you should close Djuced 18, run iTunes and check if iTunes finds the tracks which are not properly indexed in Djuced 18.
If iTunes finds all the files as it should, with no problem of tag, then you can try if
- closing iTunes (and Djuced 18 and any software using iTunes database)
- rename the file iTunes Library.xml into another name (for example iTunes Library Backup.xml)
- running iTunes again, so that it re-creates a new iTunes Library.xml file.
For more information on iTunes index, see here on Apple website.
