How to move LR to Snow Leopard?

[hassiman]

Hi,
I am doing a parallel upgrade from Leopard. I am currently running LR 2.4 on Leopard and I have just done a clean install of LR 2.4 on my SL hard drive.
What files do I need to copy from my Leopard LR to my SL LightRoom to duplicate the LightRoom install? The catalog is quite small.
Anyone notice any difference in V2.5?
Thanks.

your photo folders (unless you still have access to them), and the catalogue - you can also move the previews if you don't want to have to re-render them.

Presets and plug-ins are the only others I think.

Badger,
Are there any preference files/ Plist or other setup files that have to be transferred?

Check your ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/ (or similar, I'm not behind the Mac now) for the Lightroom directory and copy it to the SL system in the same place. This copies all presets etc.

I'm not sure if the preferences are also located there. If not, try the ~/Library/Preferences (or similar) directory.
