when i start up Traktor3 pro all the playlists under the decks are gone , all are red crossed why ?

the playlists under the decks are red crossed , but the playlists on the left(that long list of files) are intact , so i can put them again in the boxes under the decks.. but why doesn't Traktor save the playlists ?

I believe Traktor Pro 3 will be fine with older versions installed. It is really important that you shut Traktor down properly as that's when it saves your collection. Alternatively, you can right-click "Track Collection" and select "Save Collection" at any time to save your collection. It's a good idea to do this at the end of a long set (or preparation session) just in case Traktor does not shut down properly on its own - but this is rare in my experience. If Traktor fails to shut down properly, you have little choice but to stop the task/Force Quit and you'll lose all changes to your collection in that session. As I said though, this is quite rare.

Are they actually playlists in Traktor (in your Collection) or are they playlists you've created in something like the Apple Music app? If they're Apple Music playlists, they will take a while to load whilst Traktor syncs with your Apple Music app library.

No , I do nothing with I tunes

Example: I create playlist (still empty , I give it only the name)

Then I drag it into the boxes under the decks , then I drag different albums on explorer or total commander to the list , analyze and I'm done , but when I started traktor , there were red crosses and all Lists were gone , but they still were on the left side and I could drag it into the boxes.

I tested it tonight .. I shut the PC down and started up again and now their still stayed in their places .. maybe I made a mistake shutting the PC off , I don't know.

I hope it stays the same.

I must say Traktor audio2 still is installed , must I get rid of the older version ?
