Please fill in this bug report template: **Lexicon version** : … 1.7.1 **Operating system (remove one)**: Mac **Bug description** : Hello For some reason, Lexicon keeps deleting my Serato smart crates after I upload a playlist using the program. I’ve contacted Serato support and they helped me resolve the issue, but it keeps happening every time I use the program. As a result, I have to redo all of my smart crates. **Step by step to reproduce** : **Screenshot** : ![Screenshot 2024-09-18 at 5.24.46 PM](https://d2jjm7r6i2krmb.cloudfront.net/original/2X/d/d6f5ac0be8a9f03ac54a2804e6eabae0a0cebe6d.png) ---

Sure . I am syncing my serato library with Lexicon . I sync the entire library not just the playlist . I matched a playlist from my Apple Music library with the music I have downloaded on my computer Once done I sync lexicon with my serato so the changes are done . Once done I open serato and then I see that all my smartcrates are no longer in the smartcrates folder . They are have all disappeared after the sync back Thank you Leslie ---

Do the smartcrates exist in Lexicon? ---

They usually appear, and I can’t edit them, but they show up. Recently, the lexicon didn’t affect them, but for some reason, when I sync back from Lexicon to Serato, they disappear from my smart crate folder in Serato. > **(attachments)** > > ![Screenshot 2024-09-19 at 12.39.47 PM.png](https://d2jjm7r6i2krmb.cloudfront.net/original/2X/1/1dd7310ce2dbc380a029ec0ba297cded3494ffd6.png) ---

Are they in a different order maybe? Maybe the folder is further down. Check in your `Music/_Serato_/Subcrates` folder if you have any crate file called `Compatible by key%%10B.crate` or similar in the `Music/_Serato_/SmartCrates` folder. ---
