Title: MC Upgrade: How to upgrade Library
Post by: ajocius on December 05, 2009, 06:43:09 am

I used MC12 until now. Trying to move to MC14. Installed it on one PC and want to move library to it, just to check if everything is working as expected. However, i can not make it to work. Perhaps library needs to be converted too.. Are there any tools for it? By the way I tried to use Library Server, but MC14 does not open MC12 library server, as the version is too old...

In MC14, you can restore a library backup made from MJ12.

If you're moving files from another machine, it won't work correctly unless the drive and paths of the media files are the same.

For example:
If your music is in C:\music on the source machine, it needs to be C:\music on the destination.  It is possible to change the drive letter with MC's Library Tool called Find and Replace.
