Incomplete library

branvan3

Hello all,

My music library is on an external HDD, on my home modem/server.
When I installed it, all was perfectly fine and recognized.

I now have only a few directories accessible through Strawberry's library. Had restarted the library analysis, does not work. Had removed SB and installed SB 1.1.3, does not work either.

I am on macOS Monterey 12.7.2, this is an intel mac.

I would like to erase the app data, as this fix works on Linux for the similar bugs (library that does not update anymore) but cant find the file.

Thanks to anyone who can help

Strawberry stores the collection directories, indexed songs and playlists in a database file called strawberry.db, it can be found in ~/Library/Application Support/Strawberry/Strawberry/
Most settings you configure in Tools / Settings is stored in the file ~/Library/Preferences/org.strawberrymusicplayer.Strawberry.plist
And there is also cached stuff in ~/Library/Caches/Strawberry/Strawberry/.

@jonas Thank you very much for your answer!
This is very strange, I am not able to locate any of this files in my Library!

Then I suggest to search for it, open a terminal and try the following command:

find ~ -type f \( -iname 'strawberry.db' -or -iname '*strawberry.plist' \) 2>/dev/null

Here's my result:

ni214:~ jonas$ find ~ -type f \( -iname 'strawberry.db' -or -iname '*strawberry.plist' \) 2>/dev/null
/Users/jonas/Library/Application Support/Strawberry/Strawberry/strawberry.db
/Users/jonas/Library/Preferences/org.strawberrymusicplayer.Strawberry.plist

find ~ -type f ( -iname 'strawberry.db' -or -iname '*strawberry.plist' ) 2>/dev/null

Thank you very much! It worked.
