iTunes 4.0 Forum

The title say's it all, after the upgradefor 4.2 to 5 of cxoffice iTunes goes back to it's vanilla installed state (including popping up the licence agreement on first run after the upgrade), with my music library and settings all gone. Is there any way to stop this happening or am I going to have to re-import the whole lot. I've tried restoring my backup of .cxoffice several times and exactly the same thing happens each time.

As a side issue, crossover is also managing to put duplicate entries for it's programmes in my K menu and keeps recreating backdrop icons for IE/Quicktime for reasons I haven't yet worked out.

Hi,

I can't help you with upgrading your settings from 4.2 to 5.0 because I deleted all cx home directories for the beta tests.
Altough, I recommend you to start with a clean 5.0 installation, so deauthorize your itunes installation for cx 4.2, install 5.0, authorize it again and import your music into itunes.

I think that's the safest way to upgrade to 5.0, even if it takes some extra work, but that way you can make sure you get a full working 5.0 installation. In 5.0 some things have changed and they may interfere with 4.2 settings for itunes.

Hi,

This is a known bug and we're working on a fix for future upgrades and a fix for people who have already upgraded.

Thanks,
Rob
