RobUSMC Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I am having issues with copying my user library to another PC (Laptop) I have tried a couple ways. First using a flash drive, I go to docs then copy the entire Chief Architect Premier X7 Data folder. Copy it to my laptop. I have coped over the existing folder on the laptop and also have tried deleting the complete date folder then copied the new data folder. I have also copied it to a network drive and copied. Ive also tried to copy just the Database Library. All folders copy over but I am missing most of the textures. See attached screen print. I need to keep my PC and laptop libraries the same.

KirkClemons Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I would recommend exporting the User Catalog to a .calibz file. Then you can import it on the laptop. This will ensure that you don't lose any referenced files along the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KirkClemons Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Is that possible ? I thought only the individual folders or Objects within the User Library could be exported one by one... If you shift-select all folders and objects in the User Catalog, you can export everything at once and save it into a single .calibz file. Same principle is covered here: http://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00091/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbird1 Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Ahhhh thanks Kirk , never thought to Shift select in the library like in a normal Window's way , I usually back them up individually.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
