Necessary files and folders to back-up or re-construct a Bookends database

Post by smauget »

I need to transfer a Bookends database from my work to home iMac. I can't use Migration Assistant because there are work security apps and files that I can't transfer or copy.

I know all my pdfs are in Documents/Bookends/Attachments, and that the Bookend database (bdb) file is under my user folder in Library/Application Support/Bookends.

I've already copied all the pdfs into in Documents/Bookends/Attachments. Are there any other files beside the bdb file that need to be transferred?

Any Custom folders. If you're going to use Bookends cloud sync some Settings will be synced, which is preferable to moving the Preferences file between Macs.
