moving old R9.0b family file to R13 on another computer

[dny47]

apologies if this is a duplicate

I have a family file on an older mac running R9.0b. I have a new powerbook with R13. They are not networked.
I want to move the family file to the new computer, my plan is to email it to myself.

Is there anything i should do to the file on the older mac before I send it to the new mac?
In addition to the FamilyFile, are there other files on the old mac that need to accompany the FamilyFile such that "everything" is there when I open it with R13 [for example, the Reunion folder in the system's Library]

Take a look at this page: https://www.leisterpro.com/doc/v-13/...wtoupgrade.php. Hopefully, it will answer your questions.

Thanks, Bob, but those instructions assume that both R9 and R13 are on the same computer [thus the System Library]. My circumstance is that i need to move the FF from the R9 computer to the R13 computer.

No, there's no special steps here. Just email the family file to yourself, then convert it as outlined in the FAQ that Bob linked to above. Note that you do not need Reunion 9 installed on the new Mac in order to follow the steps in that FAQ, you just need the family file.

In addition to the FamilyFile, are there other files on the old mac that need to accompany the FamilyFile...

The only other thing you may need are any multimedia files (pictures, etc.) that you linked to in the family file. Those would be located where ever you saved them before linking to them in Reunion.

You do not need anything from the Library folder.
