Too many iterations of MOTU

Post by stovall »

I purchased 4.52, updated to 4.61 and now to 5.2. Each of these has folders. Can I remove the older ones safely. If so, how.

In the folder you want to save, make sure you have:

Clicks (folder)
Extras (folder)
Grooves (folder)
Any pdf update notes.

Hope I haven't overlooked anything, but you can toss the app icons that you don't want without any problems.

You really can't go too far wrong, and if you do just reinstall the latest version to restore any lost essential files.

(you do mean DP 5.1 and not 5.2, don't you?)

Yes, I mean 5.1 (I was thinking of Logic Pro 7.2, sorry).

LOL-- no prob. Thought I'd missed something.

Did you have any success?

Yes, I timidly trased 4.52 and ran 5.1, tested it, it works. So I am going to erase 4.61.

Thanks
