Hey,
So I have 3 drives, my SSD, and 2 1TB WD greens. I have 40gb of music on one, which I want to move into my other music folder on the other.

I select it all, right click, cut > paste, and nothing happens. The files just un-cut themselves and go back to their normal colour. So,.. I copy/paste... nothing happens.
I have now literally opened up both of the files, and dragged them accross. This time it says transfering files.. descovering,... gets to 20.2gb, then the window just disappears... and nothing is copied!
This is madness,.. such a simple thing, why won't my files move?

Any ideas?

Looks like i'm having a split up library till I find out lol.
 
P.S, i've recently installed winamp, could this somehow lock files? The files i'm moving are new though, and shouldn't be in any playlist anyway.
 
Hmm, a stuck escape key... could be. Typing works fine though... but my numpad enter got stuck a while ago for no reason ( it's a SAITEK eclipse II aswel, but I have another ).

I'll try the cmd prompt, thanks... i'll get back to you.
 
ok, it's now working away like mad copying music... thankyou so much as that's made my life a lot easier....

But,.. I still can't see why. I can copy single folders out of the music folder to the new one, and single files. But just not all of them.
 
Sounds like a reasonable idea but it's not that i'm afraid. The music store I am moving from is not a my music folder, it's just a normal folder not linked to "My music" at all. Hmm.

Thanks though.
