# The export left songs out

```
Export complete: … songs exported, … skipped (no play history or cue points)
```

The database export skips missing songs with nothing worth keeping: never played, with no cue points or loops, and an unedited beatgrid. The summary says how many.

## What to do

Nothing, unless you want them gone. Once your database repair is imported, VirtualDJ can clear them itself: see Typical First Repair Flow.
