M.Linc Posted October 5, 2004 Report Share Posted October 5, 2004 I notice that SonicStage 2.2 is available, and that I'm running SS 2.0. What is the best way to update the software? Can I just install the new version over the old and have everything work as before? Or am I asking for trouble? Also, is downloading from the Connect site the only way to get the new software? The instructions there seem to be geared to potential new users only, but I see nothing in the SS help files about any other way to update. (Or any way at all, actually.) I don't want any problems with updating. I'd hate to have to rip all my CDs again; I'm not even half-done doing that for the first time!

dex Otaku Posted October 5, 2004 Report Share Posted October 5, 2004 Run the Sonicstage backup util, then run the update installer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.Linc Posted October 6, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 Run the Sonicstage backup util, then run the update installer.I presume (correctly, I hope) that the update installer is the full installer on the main download page? Or is there an updater I haven't been clever enough to find? (I'm perfectly capable of that.) Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dex Otaku Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 The installer gets what it needs; if you have a previous version installed, it should only download parts that need updating, then install them. From 2.1 -> 2.2 the dl was something like 6MB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the kind of information that should be on the download site to begin with. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
