I just up-graded to the latest version and i no longer have my keys (70 gigs worth) which i spent hours doing just a few days ago. Also it's now not finding track details, i even tested it on tracks it found a few days ago.

    Hi John,

    I'm sorry you seem to have lost some data. It is odd though - a the key field stays untouched in the database update.

    What exactly do you mean with "track details"?

    Thanks,

    Hi John,

    thinking about it...

    Was there a lengthy database conversion when you ran the new beaTunes for the first time? If not, can you please check the following:

    Assuming you are on OS X, does the folder /Library/Application Support/beaTunes exist? I mean the one in te hd's root folder, not ~/Library/Application Support/beaTunes.

    If /Library/Application Support/beaTunes does exist, please download beaTunes 2.1.0 again. That might fix the issue.

    Explanation: For an hour or so I had a 2.1.0 version on the website, that stored the library in the wrong location.
