OK, so I obviously have to install Actinic on the new computer. Then, I do a Site snapshot and load that on the new computer. Is this right so far?

I then copy all the pics (which are in various files) and install them on the new computer. Howver, even if I keep these in the files with the same name as they had on the old computer, their address will be different. So, do I now do a Refresh so that all the pics are uploaded from the new computer or will an Update suffice?

Or have I got all this completely wrong?

Also, if I want to be able to manage the site from 2 computers (say a PC in the office and a lapto for when I'm out of the office for any length of time) how would I set this up?

Input would be appreciated.



Thanks

Doug

If all your images are in the site1 folder then the snapshot will take them with it.

they are scattered through various folders.

Take the time to tidy up now, put them all in site1. Make life easy!

If I do that, will it be necessary to Refresh (once they're all in the same file)? Also, if they were placed in sub-files - within the Site 1 file, would that be OK.

Thanks,

Doug

Thanks for that and to everyone else. I have another question which I'll start a new topic on.

Cheers,
