A way to get paid for your labours donation ware should help!

How about being able to move all the files to a specified location/folder!! this way it could be used for backing up your prefs when they are fresh and all working well, and also it would enable them to be placed back in to situ if the pref trashing wasn't the problem etc.

This would help a lot especially when doing cs updates etc that overwrite certain prefs and folders.. midi patch names and stuff like this that gets blatted when doing updates.

Great app

Chris

I'm making the version 2.

Instead of a big button with predefined files, it will be a BIGGER BUTTON with check box on the side to select a custom set of files, plus a backup/restore preferences option (but not for the Digidesign Database folders -a V3 feature-), and maybe an icon and a French translation.

It will include the ~/library/application support/digidesign/databases/Volumes, ~/library/preferences/ByHost/com.apple.Midi.1231xxx.plist, ~/audio/Midi Configurations.

Am I forgetting something?

definitely being able to archive/restore preference files would be great... if there was a way to make it a startup item so that everytime a user logged into the OS protools preferences would be restored to 'x'... that could be fun.... would you want to archive the digi databases? wouldn't that cause havoc somehow?

anyhow, great work, greatly appreciated... digi should send you a check....

Being able to restore (replace) the prefs files would be a better idea. I have a set of "clean" prefs that I keep in a folder with all the optiones for PT set up the way I work -these are virgin uncurrupted prefs. I drag these into the prefs folder instead of trashing prefs so then I don't have to set everything back up. I make an alias of the prefs folder in the system and an alias of the backup prefs folder so I just have to double click each then drag between windows.

It occurred to me that when you create the portion that saves the 'good' prefs you might want to add the I/O settings to that as well. Not that they get corrupted but for those of us who use other machines it would be a cool way of 'remembering' to grab them....

in fact I think i would take the app and my 'good' settings with me and install them on the rental machines.

anyway - just a thought.

Just one week or two for the next version with close to all the requests. I was a little bit busy.

Will this work for LE or is it TDM specific?
