Hi Fred.
Thanks for your reply.
Do I just make new folder on my HDD and cut and paste files into these new folders?
cheers
Daryl
Hi Daryl,
You may no longer be able to access the folder in question directly on the T5, so that you can no longer move files from it to another folder with CUT > PASTE.
I recommend you to use the
USB Storage Mode.
To do this, connect the USB-to-HOST terminal of the T5 to your computer (PC or Mac) using a USB type "AB" cable ("printer cable"). Then restart the T5 with the MUSIC FINDER button pressed. After a short time, the T5 hard disk should be displayed as a new drive in Windows Explorer or in the Mac Finder. Now you can access it from the computer and move the desired files so that the maximum number of 500 files per folder is not exceeded. (Ideally, you work with no more than 100 files per folder, otherwise you will have a lot of pages per folder on the T5 and an unnecessarily large number of clicks will be necessary to select a specific file.)
By the way, USB Storage Mode cannot be used to access the T5 User drive. If you can no longer access a certain folder in the T5 User drive because there are too many files in it, I only know of two ways to solve the problem:
1. Using the Yamaha "MusicSoft Downloader" program (with the
Yamaha USB-MIDI Driver installed). This allows you to access the T5 User drive from a PC (not Mac!).
2. Reformatting the User drive (all data in User drive will be lost!)
Hope this helps!
Best regards,
Chris
