That is a pity Lowlander. I was hoping that a drag option was available with +[Shift] or some such.

Do you happen to have the link to the detailed pages of helpful info about v5 AutoPlaylists handy?

Thanks

Hi Barry, Am not sure how this three way toggle adds much value. I'll try to explain - it might be handy for others to try too: I am making APs that select tracks that suit particular times. First in a broad sense, but also in a way that I can make quick 'dynamic' adjustments to adjust for a clearly...

Is there a way of rearranging the lines of Rules? I have added rules in a somewhat irrational order that I would like to tidy up. The AP works fine but is just annoying to edit; I'd simply like to drag the rule-lines that regularly need editing into a set of adjacent lines. Thanks, PS: I love the ti...

Hi Matt, Yes, it is hard to understand why the quirks in the UI have not been sorted out in earlier releases, maybe it is too late now? It's funny how you don't appreciate the little things until they are gone! Like the triangles at each end of scroll bars to give a small movement to fine tune your ...

Lowlander and Peke, thanks for the reasurance that I can trust the Auto Organise Files routine to help sort out the realigning of my disturbed .flac files/tags (because there is a chance to review the potential results - and quit if it is not ideal). For the benefit of those following along, a ticke...

Hi Lowlander, I haven't tried to use Auto-Organize (Files) at all (being very wary at the moment of anything 'automatic'). I have checked the dialog and there is nothing set at all. I am pretty sure these bugs are showing up where lots of changes are being made to both the folder naming - and to mov...

Hi Rob, Vice Versa Pro is very good - Where it finds a difference it deletes in the destination and replaces with the newer file. You can set the 'job' to be one way OR two way (which keeps both disks identical, catering pretty well to a shared folder used by yourself on two computers - say your des...

Thanks for your concern Rob, I use Vica Versa Pro to backup the files - I like it as it simply creates a copy of the files at the destination (and doesn't need to copy those that have the same date/time/size. I use the one-way method for the music files so that it always behaves as expected. Not a c...

1. Great that has always been set correctly then 2. That's good as if we decide to start again the most valuable value-added will be in the files. 3. Yes, I spent many hours trying to resolve that! There were over 2,000 folders in a huge staircase! I found the music files scattered through the folde...

OK, that sounds like a really good option thanks Lowlander. I have had one continuously monitored pointer on the whole of my active music folder structure - and any folder movements have been inside that tree of folders starting at M:\Music\ . Should that have been enough? Is there a way to force th...

Thanks Lowlander, I look forward to hearing when it is working as expected.

Auto-Organise could work in some cases.

Meanwhile, is there a safe way to do a multifolder move using Windows File Explorer? What are the risks?

Hi Lowlander, Re Issue 1, please feel free to start a new thread with your next reply to this issue so that the subject is more helpful to others looking for these answers . . EG "Ways of Moving whole Folders safely in MM5' . I have explored both ways (via the 'Locations' and by the 'Folders' n...

G'day Lowlander! Thanks for being there. 1. It feels like MM5 to me as I have seen it happen after a fresh boot of w10 and MM5. Perhaps whilst MM is doing it's continuous scan (which I do have on - perhaps not a great idea?). It seems to follow a change of folder name. Perhaps if I then change the s...

Greetings All. I'm just trying to get on top of the mess I got into earlier in the year with MM5. Lots of weird things happening with the interface . . Rather than go into details at this point, a quick query on just two: At times, I cannot rename a folder ''Cannot rename directory'' comes the messa...

Hi everyone, I haven't fallen off the planet! Just madly trying to get packed for an overland expedition due to depart today, and we might even make it. Once we are under way I will eventually get a chance to watch the videos that you suggested Peke. I have begun porting my MM5gold to a an external ...
