I finally got around to a tally… about 200 smartlists in Lexicon DJ. There were probably around 100 when Engine DJ stopped syncing correctly. But, if you read various threads here, it may be syncing all sorts of playlists can become problematic, out-of-the-blue, with Engine DJ. > [@Sync Manager doesn't export my playlists - Version 3.1.0](https://community.enginedj.com/t/sync-manager-doesnt-export-my-playlists-version-3-1-0/49410): > > Since ver. 3.1.0 neither sync manager nor drag and drop playlists to my SD card is working properly. In Sync Manager, I select the playlists I want to export and after the process is finished, those playlists aren’t exported. Drag and drop the playlists is no solution either. Please, I need a bug fix because the weekend is close. @djveleno reports a solution in the above thread. > [@Missing engine smartlists](https://community.enginedj.com/t/missing-engine-smartlists/68488): > > ths is unusual, maybe someone can advise whats happened or what ive done. ive been using engine with my sc6000s for about 2 years - mostly its been fine. however, ive just noticed about 6 smartlists i’d created are no longer in my collection root directory, and a few other smartlists have disappeared from within a folder… but all other folders still contain smartlists ive created and are fine. whats even weirder, when i use sync mgr to update a usb, it still shows the smartlists as existing, … I’m still converting playlists to smartlists. But, for the most part I can just drop a properly tagged track in the collection and it falls into many of the appropriate smartlists. The exception is the Sets category of playlists. --- _[View the full topic](https://community.enginedj.com/t/engine-dj-desktop-playlist-question/68283)._
