![]() Get the backed up library ZIP archive over to your Linux machine, and run theįeature, and select the zip archive you just saved Step One : Backup current MacOS JRiver library & restore to Linuxįeature, and save the resultant zip archive Let's say your music collection is on an HFS+ formatted drive for use on Mac, on a disk called "ExternalDisk" in a folder named "MusicFolder" and let's say you copied it all over to a NTFS or Ext4 volume for use in Linux. you will need to mount a disk with a complete current backup of music collection so everything will be where JRiver on Linux will be looking. ![]() Step Zero: Copy the entire contents of music collection that JRiver on MacOS has been accessing (unless you are simply moving hard disk from Mac to Linux then these instructions are same except you are physically moving external disk to Linux machine instead of pointing to a copy). I am not a coder and also I had 85% of this whole thing written & ready to post when my browser decided to back me out of the page and lose everything so I here I go again. Pardon the formatting of these instructions. Not sure if mount point path naming of local volume ("/media/" etc) will differ with non-Debian distros. I assume this would work the same in reverse (going from Ubuntu to Mac). This is probably all or mostly here in forum across different posts going Mac-Windows or Windows-Mac, but seems simpler going Mac-Ubuntu as Windows has file name restrictions and maximum file path length issue that are not really issues going Mac-Linux, and Mac and Linux both use "/" in paths instead of "\" like on Windows. I might be only one who ever needs this, but in case anyone else does, or in case I ever forget how I did this, here is how I have apparently successfully moved a Mac MediaCenter library to Linux Mint, and then again later did same from Mac to Ubuntu.
