Fran Giacoma All Messages By This Member #240571 Getting a new MacBook Air next week to replace my 4 year old MacBook Pro that I use DecoderPro on. I'll be trading in the MacBook Pro when I pick up the new Air. What JMRI items should I back up (to iCloud or portable hard drive) before I go to the store? I already save the Roster File and Roster.xml to iCloud whwnever I make changes in DecoderPro. ? Any special Java installs to be done of the MacBook Air? Thanks. ? Fran Giacoma

Mike All Messages By This Member #240582 Yes use Time Machine on a SSD drive, I use it for my backup and just changed from a 2015 iMac to a new Mac Mini. Started the Mini up and migrated from the Time Machine drive and a few hours later had all my files and apps running on the Mini, no installing, copying etc. ? Mike Ruby
Fran Giacoma All Messages By This Member #240583 Thanks Mike and David for suggesting use of Time Machine. Will give it a try. ? Dave S. - I do not use PanelPro, only DecoderPro. Currently running test release 5.11.3. ? Fran G.
