If i've asked you to send me your "kJams Library" folder, here's how!
Locate the “kJams” folder
- if you can run kJams:
- run kJams
- Context-click on the "Library" playlist, and pick "Reveal in [Finder | Explorer]"
- Quit kJams
- in the window that was revealed, move "up" one level (go to the parent folder)
- if you can NOT run kJams:
- go to your user's "Home" folder
- in there go into your "Music" or "My Music" folder
- in there go into the "kJams" folder
Please don't send your backups, unless I specifically ask you to
Here's how to exclude the backups:
- go inside the "kJams Library" folder
- in there, you'll see one or two folders with the word "[Backups]" in the name
- select it (them) and drag them to the desktop, so they're out of the way (you'll want to put them back later)
- do you see two files called "Songs", one with ".ktd" and one with ".ksql" as the file name extension?
- if so, drag the .ktd one also to the desktop
- now go back out to the "kJams" folder
Sending WITH Music Stores
- Context-click the "kJams Library" folder and pick:
- Mac: "Compress “kJams Library”"
- Win: "Send To->Compressed (zipped) Folder"
- email that zip file to me as an attachment
- delete the zip file
Sending WITHOUT Music Stores
- Go into the "kJams Library" folder, then go into the "Playlists" folder
- in there, if you see a "Music Stores" folder
- Move that folder out a couple levels, so it's NEXT TO the "kJams Library" folder
- Context-click the "kJams Library" folder and pick:
- Mac: "Compress “kJams Library”"
- Win: "Send To->Compressed (zipped) Folder"
- email that zip file to me as an attachment
- delete the zip file
- put the "Music Stores" folder back where it was
if the ZIP file is too big for email
- use dropbox or wetransfer
- email me AFTER the upload is complete, letting me know you sent it!
Sending Preferences
- run kJams
- Help->Reveal Preferences
- zip and send me the "kJams" folder (the folder that encloses all the prefs) (see above for how to zip)
