Upgrading

Note The current versions of 0.7 development series do not upgrade the 0.6 data. You need to delete the data before running 0.7. As 0.7 nears it final release code will be added to do the upgrade.

Windows

You can safely upgrade to newer versions of BitPim. When downgrading to older versions, please uninstall the newer versions first. You must also delete the contents of the data directory as the older versions do not understand the newer data formats - default My Documents\BitPim

Linux

Install newer and older RPMs as you see fit. When downgrading from older versions, you must also delete the contents of the data directory as the older versions do not understand the newer data formats - default $HOME/.bitpim-files

Mac

You can run whichever version of the dimg you want. If you run an older version than the one you ran previously, then delete the data directory - default $HOME/.bitpim-files
