MMW4 Gold, trying MMW5: Syncing

Post by gordol »

I have MMW4 Gold installed and it's set to sync with MMA on my Android.
I want to test everything with MMW5 before committing, buying it and removing 4. How can I sync my phone with MMW5 on the same PC instead of 4?

See: https://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/WebHel ... Tracks/5.0

Preferably you take your MediaMonkey 4 database (the one you Synced from) to MediaMonkey 5.

And then what? How do I tell the phone app to sync with MMW5 instead of 4? Do they look the same to MMA and it'll just work with whichever one is running?

In MMA you may need to use Select Sync Server in the Options. Make sure you only run MediaMonkey 5 when trying to Sync.

Ok, it worked with no changes needed on the phone side.
I was concerned since I did have to set the sync pairing initially with MMW4.

It's tied to the database, thus it's still paired if you take the MM4 database to MediaMonkey 5.
