    Default Traktor 2 doesn't play my music.

    So I have 2 external HDDs. One consists of 2TB of music files (HDD#1) and the other is empty (HDD#2). I just recently updated to Traktor 2, so I decided to start fresh and use iTunes as my music file organizer. So I took all 2TB of music files from HDD#1 and imported it in iTunes. Since my collection is so big I changed the default directory folder. I redirected the "iTunes Media" folder to be set externally in HDD#2. I edited all the tags, and was able to easily delete duplicate songs through iTunes. So now all my music files from HDD#1 are consolidated into HDD#2. HDD#2 on the other is more organized so I want to use it as my main external music library. I opened up iTunes tree in Traktor 2, and I imported the Library into my collection. I tried playing the songs in my, but it doesn't play. I get the missing/corrupt/DRM error. What is wrong?

    Just for experimenting purposes i tried opening up the HDD#2 though the explorer tree and imported the music files straight from there, but they still wouldn't play.

    Why is that? Anyone know how i can solve this?
    Thanks in advance.

    Did you tell Traktor in preferences where the new main music folder was located?

    Yes, I did. I added HDD#2 under Music folders.

    And then do "Relocate" to change the paths to the correct drive.
