  • I can’t see the data of my Device library that I backed up to the cloud via another PC/Mac. Why not?

    If the backup process doesn't finish properly, the data won't be visible on another PC/Mac.

    In this case, make sure Dropbox is completely synced.

  • I can’t restore my Device library. Why not?

    If the file system of the device you lost and that of the new device you want to save the restored files to is not the same, you can't restore them.

    Check the file system of the device you want to save the restore data to.

  • I can’t restore my music files. Why not?

    The Device library backup doesn't backup music files themselves.

    To restore the data, the same music files on your PC/Mac or in the cloud are copied to the new USB storage device.

    If you delete a file or move it to another PC/Mac, that file won't be restored.
