I have installed OpenSuse 11.2. When I start Amarok, it displays the following message:
“The Amarok collection database was created by a newer version of Amarok, and this version of Amarok cannot use it.”
After entering OK Amarok stops.
I have tried to install Amarok from the online repositories a second time, and I got the same result.
Who can give me a hint how to get Amarok playing?
Please delete the following folder
.kde4/share/apps/amarok
start amarok
Thank you very much! Your solution is simple (if you know what to delete!) but it worked out fine and I need no longer rack my brain about it.
:):)
Dude - we are happy to help with our wonderful ideas 
Hi caf4926, I deleted the directory, that you said, but when I restart amarok, It crashes. This is the bug report:
