[Profile]How do you transfer profile to different mac?

Post by OmenKing »

Hi,

I'm transferring my profile from a PowerMac to a Macbook pro.
They're both running same version of Adium.

On my Macbook Pro which is Leopard there isn't any directory called Adium 2.0 in Library/Application Support

So I created one and dropped Adium 2.0/Users and dropped my Default directory in there. It didn't pull it into Adium.

Would the directory be somewhere else on Leopard?
Is there a better way of transferring profiles than how I am doing it?

I'm having the same problem -- upgrading computers, copied the Adium 2.0 folder to the new one, and Adium refuses to see any of my old settings/chat transcripts/etc. I'm desperate here!

Help!

You probably looked in /Library, not ~/Library. The ~ indicates your home folder.
