I need to put brick sync onto a new laptop.
Can someone document the procedure for me, so I do not lose any of the data.

Thanks

    Just move/copy the entire directory to the new computer. You can delete the inventory backups first (look in data/), if it's a little heavy.

    And don't run the old BrickSync on the previous computer.

    Unfortunately i will need a step by step guide. I assume that once if find the right directory i can save it to dropbox then on the new system access it from dropbox. But what do i do with it
    Do i download Bricksync first?

    Insert USB drive in old computer, copy/paste the bricksync directory from drive to USB drive, unmount device.
    Insert USB drive in new computer, copy/paste the bricksync directory from USB drive to drive, unmount device.

    Or if you want to do it over the internet, it may be easier for you to transfer a single file, so just zip the whole bricksync directory.
