A little more info would be appreciated, but are you on a PC? and if so do you have any new apps installed? or have any random shit running in the background? have you downloaded any gay porn since last running traktor?

MBP
no New Apps
Nothing else running at all and no controllers connected
No gay porn
No downloads
Imported some new music - all legit mp3's from Beatport


Is there a preferences xml file or settings file I can delete or something?

renaming collection.nml seems to stop the problem but I need my collection!!

How do you restore a back up collection?

you can use one of the older collection files in the backup folder. every time you close traktor a new file is created.

Removed to WAV files from the songs I imported and it is loading now.

What doesnt Traktor like WAVs or something?

16bit 44.1KHz

restart your mac, if that doesnt work, make sure that you are running TS4 1.0.1.

wavs don't have id3, it's stored in a) traktor's collection b) itunes library
