Hello Daniel and others, The situation is that I have adjusted the settings of vo on sl after doing a upgrade to Lion So, the lion-functions where included. Then I exported this vo-settings to a file , under the upgraded Lion. When I was importing that file in a clean install of Lion, none of the commander-parrameters, where imported I think. I am shore about my trackpad commands that none of them was imported and this is frustrating. Is there no manipulation possible by copying some file(s) or folder(s) from the Lion upgrade to the clean install of Lion?
Any hints should be very welcome, kind regards, William Op 14-nov.-2011, om 11:40 heeft Daniel Miller het volgende geschreven: > Hi, > Since they're settings that you made in SL, no, they won't be completely > imported in Lion.
