Jerry, Thanks for the info but your answers leave me with another question or two:
What is SUCP? How do I save the older version of iPhoto or iMovie? It's more than just copying the application and it's folder contents to another drive, right? Don't I also have to copy accompanying files that are in places other than the application folders? So how do I find out where these are? BTW- I have a newer iBook.
