That´s less than TWO business-days (we´ve had four days easter-holidays) delivery US to SWE!!! I´m impressed, to say the least! Only downside - swedish toll/tax took $40, but then Sweden is woldleading when it comes to taxes. BTW: What happens if I, for some reason, lose the contens on my BiaB-harddrive Can I make a backup on another HD?

Another plan would be to buy a bigger drive and copy it there and use that for songs etc. There are issues with many computers having poor power to the device, so you have a double headed cable. On two of my computers that cable won't charge my blackberry, but will run the hard drive. As nothing writes to the registry, the only part of the software that needs to be installed on your system are the fonts and plugins. John Conley Musica est vita

Make sure you have enabled Windows to see hidden files before you copy everything over. I found that if you copy the contents of the USB drive to a different drive and put it under its own sub-folder, then you can't install from that sub-folder. However, with XP and Vista, you can use the "subst" command to substitute a drive letter for that sub-folder and then install it. For Windows 7, the "subst" command wouldn't work for me, however. So instead I just "shared" the subfolder and then mapped a network drive to that sharename.

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.
