Moving Rumlog to new computer

Unread post by pxforti »

I need to move rumlog to a new computer.

I know how to get my log book over, but don't know how to get rumlog preferences.

I found a folder in /Users/myuser/Library/Containers/RUMLogNG

If I copy that to new computer, will that get all settings and preferences? Or do I have to recreate all the settings on new computer?

Thanks

I copied /Users/myuser/Library/Containers/RUMLogNG to the new computer and RUMLogNG on the new computer picked up all my preferences.

It's not recommended when you use the iCloud synced logbook.

I also copied /Users/myuser/Library/Containers/RUMLogNG to another Mac (Mac mini M2 to MacBook Pro) and it worked ok. Picked up all my preferences. Thanks for the good advice!
