Hi guys,

I was using the demo version of MC 14. It expired a few days ago and I have decided to purchase it. I then, click the purchase button and it sent me to a web page. I got a error message saying that it was no longer availabe. After that, I followed the instructions found on the J River page and purchased the MC 15. The instalation went fine, however I have lots of playlist on MC 14 and I can not access them because the program does not open. How can I import all the playlists and data from MC 14 to MC? I have already tried the import button on MC 15 but it could not find the necessary info.

Thanks

If you update to the latest MC14, it can use the MC15 license.  You'll find it on the download page or at the top of the MC14 board.  Thanks for your purchase.

I purchase a full version of MC 15. After my purchase, both versions (MC14 and MC15) were installed and can be found on my pc. What do you recommend me to do?

I recommend you to keep the MC 15 installation, it has everything that 14 have and will be updated in the future, so why keep the mc 14 installation? Just do a library backup on the 14 and restore it on the 15

I would perform the backup as you said, however the MC 14 does not open, it says that my 30 days trial period has expired and asks me to either purchase, restore or cancel. If I hit purchase, I am redirect to a webpage and I get an error message (this product is no longer for sale); if I hit restore, it asks me to restore from the Internet or from mjr file. I donīt have a registration code for the MC 14 and the MC 15 file does not work on the MC14; if I hit cancel, the program does not start. So, how would I make the backup as you have suggested? I have almost 2Tb of media and lots of playlists....

If you update to the latest MC14, it can use the MC15 license.

Download the installer from here: http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=56832.0

As I have said, I didn't purchase MC14, I was using the demo version and it expired.

And as Jim said, the few latest builds of MC14 show up as registered when you have an MC15 license installed on your operating system.

Just download the installer and install it on top of your current MC14 installation.


After you have updated MC14, create a new library backup file (File > Library > Back Up Library...). Save it to some safe location outside your user profile folders.

You can restore the backup file in MC15 (File > Library > Restore Library...)

If you have cover art files in the default location under the application data folder you may want to back them up separately. For instance, on XP the default location is: C:\Documents and Settings\[your user name]\Application Data\J River\Media Center 14\Cover Art\ .

Thanks. It worked. Keep up the good job.
