moving Apple. folders to Lumin X1 - calloway - 16-07-2023 02:29
question...I have an Apple iMac that I bought about 2 months ago. when I bought it I transferred all my information from my previous iMac into the new one. In my previous iMac the 400 or too SCAD albums that exist within folders in 'Finder', that are separated into genre folders ..about 6 or so, populated my Lumin X1 in the folder icon within the Lumin app.when I wanted to play them I simply touched the Folder icon and chose whichever genre folder and subsequently album that I wanted to play and sat back and enjoyed..fast forward to the present...post transfer to my new iMac.......the Sacd folders did not make the move but are still present within the 'Finder' section of my iMac .how do I move them to my X1 so I can play them once again..??if possible ...simplicity would be great as I am not a big IT guy..thanks I. advance..calloway

You should check if contentDir in Minimserver configuration (Properties/Server) points to the right folder.

If you’re running Minimserver 2.2 you can type in your browser
ip-address:9790 where ip-address is the address of the pc/Mac on which you’re running Minimserver
or
if Minimserver is running on your iMac click on the note icon and select Properties from the menu

A rescan should be enough:
Click on the note icon and from the menu select Rescan
The note icon should turn to yellow (this is the color while rescanning) and after few minutes it should turn back to White
Your SACD tracks should be now visible in your control point app

What type are the files? Not .iso I hope, as Minims cannot read .iso files
