Is this the post ? Can I use the same USB drive?I mean, when you point it out in that way, it's a huge amount of difference!
My plan would be to transfer all the data to a separate drive, format the existing BIAB USB Drive to APFS, then install the BIAB macOS version and transfer back all the data. I guess it would be better to do all of that first and THEN do the conversion as transferring that much audio data as uncompressed (ie non-mp3) data would take forever!
PS: oh and I did a search for that Library>Library M folder and could not find it.

I tried Crossover on Linux but again could not get Windows Media Player to work (Biab needs this to work !). If PG spent a bit of time getting Biab to run under Wine it would solve a lot of issues as you are having now. Users could use the latest Win Biab 2024 version on Mac or Linux and it would just keep working when they do their weekly OS updates. Reaper woks under WINE: "REAPER supports Linux on Intel and ARM architectures, and the Windows version works well with WINE."

Thanks again musocity -the PG Hard drive still has 260+ gig of space left so I if I go ahead with that plan I think there'll be enough space.
Still waiting on PG support to get back to me....

You can leave the NTFS format as is on the Win drive as Biab Mac will read it as it doesn't need write access to it. This is a drive below that I used on the Mac, I renamed the Library to LibraryM then I create a symlink "Library" that points to LibraryM so it works on Win & Mac. If you have 260gig free that will be enough to have m4a also allowing the drive to work on Win or Mac.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.
Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!
Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
