When I change cue points of track in a Traktor playlist, it changes it in other playlists!
Also when I open up my iTunes folder in traktor all the songs show up cue points from Traktor playlist.
As an fyi my Traktor did crash yesterday and I had to set it up again using the set up wizard and spend time trying to get back to the old display I had before.
any help on this cue point issue would be much appreciated - is it some sort of mapping issue?

The cue points are stored per track by design, I would consider it a convenience feature even. Having to update a track separately for every playlist it's in would be less user friendly, in my opinion.

You have make a copy of the "File".
Close Traktor then go into your music folder, find the file, copy it and rename it. Open Traktor and locate the renamed copy and add it to you collection.

But sometimes you want to mix same track in to different tracks and thus different cue points
is the problem I’m describing the default setting? For instance if I have same track playing in A and B from different playlists, if I change a cue on one side, it automatically change it on the other? Thanks dan

This is not a problem. This is how info is stored for a single file.
If you really need to do what you are asking for then you can make a copy of the file and rename it. Track 1 and Track 1a.

Hi there - I changed name of track in playlist but it still seem to be linked to track in other playlist. What am I doing wrong apart from being a luddite.

Sorry for being a luddite but when I click on mp3 file on my MacBook and make a copy and change name, when I bring it into iTunes it still has original name of track.

That's because even though you changed the file name when copying the file the meta data remains the same. iTunes browser afaik doesn't display the file path unless you right click the track in iTunes and go to file. Then you will see that the file name changed because you changed the file name. Now change the meta data like track name. Traktor's browser can show the file paths though.
Are you sure you want to go down this rabbit hole just to have different cues for the same song? Because you're going to have to do this for every song that you want to apply it to.

Thanks for his - as you say, it’s proper a hassle to do this everytime. I was hoping you could just make a copy in Traktor. Oh well. Thanks for help anyway

It's the same for everything. In iTunes if you want art work for a track in one playlist and different artwork for that same track in another playlist then apple will suggest the same thing.
