I'll revive this old thread rather than start a new one. so I've put a shortcut to my new drive in the folder that the SB looks for on my old drive. the only thing is, it doesn't show up and won't rescan and find the other 15000-something songs on the new drive. any ideas? -- davesax36

On a Mac which I use, the nearest equivalent to a Windows shortcut is an alias, which is easy to create. However, SS does not use aliases, SC 7.0.1 now has support for aliases. Please give it a try. Michael ___ discuss mailing list
