Troubleshooting
Before making inquiries about operations or technical issues, refer to troubleshooting below, or check the [FAQ] for each DJ equipment/rekordbox.
Music files cannot be displayed or loaded.
On the supported DJ equipment, the music files may not be displayed on the screen or may not be loaded. There are possible causes as follows.
| Cloud Sync is incomplete
If the Cloud Library Sync between rekordbox for Mac/Windows or rekordbox for iOS/ Android and the library in the cloud has not finished, the music file will not be displayed on the browse screen. Wait for the sync to finish, then the music file should display.
| The music file has not been uploaded to Dropbox
Only music files that you have uploaded to Dropbox will be displayed on the browse screen. If the upload is not complete, the music file cannot be loaded. Upload the music files you want to use to Dropbox beforehand, then use them once the upload is complete. You can upload with rekordbox for Mac/Windows or rekordbox for iOS/Android.

| Impact of Dropbox maintenance or failure
When Dropbox is undergoing maintenance or experiencing problems, music files cannot be loaded. Try again when Dropbox is back online. You can check the status of these issues on the Dropbox website. https://status.dropbox.com/
The USB storage device or SD memory card does not have enough space.
When using CloudDirectPlay, rekordbox temporarily stores audio files downloaded from Dropbox onto a USB storage device or SD memory card. So, the required free space depends on the number and size of the downloaded files. The approximate size of an audio file for one track is shown below. It varies depending on the length of the track and the file format though. · MP3 format: 12 MB (6-minute track at 320 kbps bit rate) · WAV format: 66 MB (6-minute track with CD quality)
