Help with clearing USB drive. Music files won't play on my DJ equipment
Hi,
I need some help with this.
I am a DJ and had put a bunch of songs onto a flash drive to hook up to my XDJ-1000 and all the songs worked great.
I then needed to adjust my playlist so I unplugged my USB from my gear and hooked it back up to my laptop. I then took the "contents" folder that had all the songs on there and moved it to the trash. I fixed my playlist in my software program and then put it onto my now "blank" USB drive.
I DID empty my trash with the deleted data while my stick was still mounted. When I went and plugged my USB back into my XDJ-1000 to play the music- it was giving me an error message saying the media cannot be found- could be collapsed files (or something to that effect). Some of the songs WERE working though and some were not. I repeated this process a couple times (don't ask me why) and now none of the songs are playing. It's a 64gb high speed USB drive so I know there is enough room on there. I only had about 20 songs on the playlist I added to it.
If I clear out my USB- through utilities and erase all the data properly- will this fix my problem? Do you have any suggestions?
This is kind of urgent as I have gigs and need this to work ASAP.
I appreciate your help.
