On a computer WITH existing Memory Manager / Storybook, your programs will open and operate just as they did before! (You may have to direct the programs to ‘find’ the files on your computer (usually located in Documents) see below for instructions.



On a NEW computer WITHOUT existing programs
You have just got a NEW laptop/computer and want to install and transfer your current content, projects & vaults. Now this is a bit trickier, as you are switching computers and there is more involved with making sure you save Vaults, Projects, Content & Activation Codes. Here is a step-by-step guide.



  Memory Manager to Historian
1. SAVE your Memory Vaults to your NEW Computer - this can be done two ways:
    a) SAVE the vaults to an external hard drive or USB (locate the file on your computer - usually in documents - right click to copy and then paste onto the device/new location) then copy from the device to the NEW computer (this give you a backup on your device)
    b) Have the file transferred to your new computer (this is sometimes done for free or for a small fee when you purchase a computer)
2. Follow steps 1 - 7 above to order the Software.
3. Go to the Welcome Page and click on "Open another Vault" 
4. Go to where you store your vaults on your computer or external hard drive
5. Open the vault
6. Everything is there the EXACT way it was in Memory Manager!

7. Locate where you store your content & projects on your OLD computer
8. Copy them to the NEW computer or to an external hard drive or USB then to new computer
9. Order & Download program as in Steps 1 - 7 on previous page

Download and Consultation Service:
To help you make the switch, I offer a one-on-one download service. I will come to your home and help you with this process. This usually takes 1 hour for downloading onto an existing computer and 2-3 hours onto a NEW computer depending on the file sizes and time it takes to save and import vaults, content etc.
I also offer a photo album design service to complete albums for you!
Fee is $25 per hour.
