Update from 10.0.2 to 10.4: Old database empty!

Post by haegar »

Hi,

I upgraded from from 10.0.2 to 10.4 and found that my current database is empty!? What did I do wrong? 10.0.2 is still installed and when I run it instead, my database is still there and functional. I upgraded with Sparkle and am running OS X 10.5 (Leopard).
Any suggestions?

Thanks so much!

Hi,

Yes, Rebuild your database in 10.0.2 and then export all the references to a "Bookends" file. Import that into a fresh Bookends 10.4.1 database.
