| Nedra Fresneda 30.10.2012 | Reinstall and punch in the original serial, it will detect your previous collection and prompt for new updates in Service Center. OP isn't encouraging piracy so I don't see what all the fuss is about. |
| Danae Dumler 31.10.2012 | You may not need to delete anything -- I'm pretty sure you can just install the new version alongside your "cured" version. Traktor 2.5 works fine on my system with 2.1.3 and 2.1 and 2.0.3 or whatever installed alongside it, why not your shady version too. You'll eventually want to get rid of it but it might help you go back and double check any settings you want to save. But you should be fine with the instructions above - export your settings and then import in the real version of Traktor. |

| Leeanna Ayla 30.10.2012 | Good job on stepping up and buying the software. This assumes all the file paths are default and you haven't changed anything. First thing is to do an export of all your Traktor settings using the big export button in preferences. Next back up the Traktor root folder at: Windows: My Documents\Native Instruments\Traktor Mac OS X: Users/~/Native Instruments/Traktor This will save your .nml which is all your playlist, the collection and history, your .tsi files which are any mappings you've created and your .log files which are created each time you open Traktor. If you have any recordings you want to back up do that at: Windows: My Music\Traktor\Recordings Mac OS X: Users/~/Music/Traktor/Recordings Traktor records in .wav so this may be a pretty big file. I would save them all as mp3's rather than keeping them in Traktor. Install the legit version of Traktor and overwrite the root folder in the location above while Traktor is not running. Import your settings file you exported from the beginning. Restart twice and you should be good to go. Again, if you changed any file paths you may need to go back and point them to the correct locations. |
| Faustino Stringfellow 30.10.2012 | If you've had a pirated version of the software, buying the legitimate version will not magically upgrade everything in a legal version. You MUST un-install the pirated version (say what you mean, it was an illegal version) because that one bypasses the service centre you need service centre running in order to register the legal version. When everything is legal, you may (or may not) be able to recover all the settings created previously. Cue points "should" remain as they were, but that's the chance you take when using illegal software. But seriously, you should believe about re-analysing all the tracks (I guess they are stolen too ?) each version of TP2 has improved things, and on new builds I leave the laptop scanning for a few days updating all my songs. we shouldn't even be having this discussion, and I guess one of the moderators will close this thread, directing you to speak to NI about it. |
| Desire Piedmont 30.10.2012 | Aren't grids and cue points stored in the tags? |
| Marian Eagleburger 30.10.2012 | So, first I must uninstall Traktor and then install the right version? Are you sure? because I really don't wanna loose anything. Thanks 4 your answer |
| Brunilda Kora 30.10.2012 | First up, I'm glad that your sick version of Traktor is now all better. I believe when you uninstall Traktor you'll be asked if you want to keep your library and settings. You can then install your bought n' paid for (healthy?) version and pick up where you left off. |
