Migrating to another Mac

Unread post by f8bxi »

Hello,

I'm using RUMlogNG 5.1.1 on a Macbook Pro and I would like to migrate my radio softwares to a Mac Mini. I'm trying to figure out how to do this migration without losing any feature and information (contacts, QSL info, LoTW sync, etc.). I thought to install RUMlogNG on the new machine and copy the .rlog file but I feel this is not the best way :-)

What coud be the best method to do this ?

Thanks a lot for any help,

73,
Philippe

The best way to migrate is to use a Time Machine backup.

Thanks Tom for the fast answer but I'm not migrating ALL my machine to another. I keep the MBP for another purpose than radio and I dedicate a Mac Mini for the shack only. So I just want to move RUMlog from a Mac to another.

I've just answered your question for the best method.
In your case, just copy the log files. You have to go through all the settings. You have to import your LoTW certificates.
