Locked Re: Import complete Roster

 

This might sound like a stupid question but are both computers running the same OS (i.e. Windows)? If old one is a PC and new one is a Mac and your stick is formatted for pc, the Mac won't be able to open it. Just thought I'd ask.?

Rick,

Will both computers connect to the internet?? If yes, your solution may be Drobox.

?

Set up the old computer to use Drobox for your roster.? Then set up the new computer to use Drobox; the roster will download from the cloud.

?

I¡¯ve used Drobox for some time to keep my roster synchronized between computers.? I just replaced my work bench computer letting my roster download.? An additional advantage is always having an off-site backup with a 30-day lookback if I want an old file.
