Default Re: 7.3.1.WTF? Is there any hope? Does the 7.4 Upgrade Fix T

Quote:
I would love to update to 7.4 but, I am in the middle of several projects right now and I am not sure if all of my sessions will open correctly. Will all my plug-ins work OK? I can not have down time right now or have my 7.3 projects no opening right. Thanks, Jon G.

Hi Jon,

You could use "carbon copy cloner" to create a bootable copy/back-up of your system drive. all you need is a partition on a second or external hard drive that is the same size or larger. Then you can upgrade to 7.4 on the back-up system. If you have any problems with the 7.4 upgrade you can simply revert back to your system with 7.3.

I always keep a cloned copy of my system drive! then if any problems did occur i can be back up and running in minutes.

From 7.3 to 7.4 gave me no problems and all plugins worked fine and i have many third party plugs etc. just the "golden rule" all plugins must be the latest versions! any old/out of date plugs can cause problems, even if not in the session.
