Locked moving files to new computer
开云体育I am in the process of moving files from an old iMac desktop to a newer iMac desktop.I have moved the JMRI files to a flash drive and put them on the desktop of the newer computer. ?It was a huge file and took half an hour to put on the flash drive and half hour to put on the newer computer desktop. ?Seems like it is carrying a LOT of information along that I may not need such as all the saved panels as they were being built through the years. ?But I also use the Operations part of Panel Pro too. ? Anyway, right now I’m just working to make sure my decoder roster is on the newer computer. ?The older computer JMRI version is 4.17.2 and the computer is using the MAC OS 10.11.6 The JMRI on the newer computer is JMRI 4.17.6 and the newer Operating system is MAC OS 10.13.3 The preferences directory on the newer computer is: /users/username/Library/Preferences/JMRI/My_JMRI_Railroad/ The roster folder on the newer computer desktop generally has an .xml ?and a ? .xml.bak for each loco. I have gone to Decoder Pro and then at the File drop down, I select “import complete roster” and it will create an “Open” window, but there is no way that I can select my roster files. ? What step am I missing? Thomas Cain Indianapolis, IN Modeling the Eastern Illinois Santa Fe from the Prototype See my?NEW?website and layout at: ? |

开云体育Tom,
Since you are moving between two similar Mac computers, you would probably be better off copying the entire Settings directory from the old to the new. On all Mac computers it is: /users/username/Library/Preferences/JMRI/ That should be fine unless you have manually changed the User Files Location and/or the Roster Location to somewhere outside the Settings Location (you can check that on the old computer).
