MC 12 & CD Database

(1/2) > >>

jkrzok:
I see that MC 12's library won't be compatible with 11's. I have a large (very very large) CD database and it breaks my heart to think that I will have to redo all of these disks if I want to upgrade.

Is there now, or will there be, any way to import my MC 11 CD database into 12's?

marko:
v12 will upgrade and work with a v11 database.

you won't be able to take that library back to v11 with you as v11 will not know how to handle it.

remember v12 and v11/v11.1 can co-exist.

But I can make a backup of the v11.1 library before using v12, so I can use it again with v11 if necessary?

It sounds like we'll be able to have two entirely different installs running side-by-side. Will I be able to install v12 alongside v11 and still be able to upgrade v11's db? Or can I upgrade the db only by upgrading v11?

JimH:
I think you can copy the old database files to a new location and tell MC12 where they are.
