I know that this must be covered in the forum somewhere but I can't find it
My laptop is faulty and needs to go to apple for repair so I need to use my wife's macbook but I don't know how to transfer the kjams library to the other laptop. Help

drag and drop

just copy the "kJams" folder (inside the music folder)

Also your plugins:
/Library/Application Support/kJams/

you may also want your preferences folder:
/Users/<you>/Library/Preferences/kJams/

put each folder in its respective place on the other computer.

if it goes back to tryout let me know and i'll reset your activations.

Can i also copy these folders from my mocbook to my desktop so my library is on both computers? Is this the best way to also back up my library?
Thank you

that is exactly what is described.

but also you need to back up your *music*.

Thanks Dave
I've had my music backed up for a long time and I thought I had kJams library backed up but didn't.
I have now

Dave, i am a little confused now. Is'nt the *music* inside the Kjams folder? If i copy the kjams folder, the music will be backed up at the same time? please help.

If all you've ever done is rip your own CDs and purchase from the music store, then yes, you're right.

But if you started off with a hard drive full of karaoke and THEN added it to kJams, then no, your music probably is NOT in the kJams Music folder, so back that up too.
