Edson,
Of course not. What you can do is install multiple versions of postgreSQL
in parallel (I've done it on Windows and Ubuntu Server). It's why they are
each put into their own version numbered directory. For example, a
Windows machine running versions 10, 12, and 13 would have a default
EDB installers are designed to support side by side installation of
multiple major versions. It works just fine (I’ve been using them like that
for years).

Yes it’s possible to do as Richard noticed. But you cannot share at any chance
the data folder!
This will corrupt your data making irrecoverable.
Even not having two versions online, you cannot shutdown version 10 and startup
version 12 (or any combination of major versions) on same data folder
Hi Jack,
I was in a similar situation with an old application using pg v9. I
installed different versions of postgres with homebrew on Catalina. I
currently have versions 9, 11 & 12 installed and can have them all running
in parallel listening on different ports. I connect to them all from a
Thanks, Richard. Honestly, I’d prefer to get it going with the EDB distribution
that I already have, but I’m very comfortable with Homebrew so your approach
will definitely be my fallback if I can’t do it with EDB.

I’m using the EDB PG installation on Mac OS 11.1 (Big Sur), which seems to
offer multiple versions. I’m currently running PG10, but I’m looking to upgrade
to PG13 and would like to test with it first. Can I (and if so then how do i)
switch back and forth between PG versions?
Exactly what I said: I was just being enfatic about the risk.

It’s ok to do that, being careful of not sharing data files.
But your explanation made all clear.

Thanks, Dave. I did eventually figure out how to add another server to
postgres.app. The whole process was very easy, although rather well-hidden.
BTW, it was very easy to reconfigure in pgAdmin4 — but maybe add drag-and-drop
to copy databases between servers? ;)

In pgAdmin, in the Object Browser, right-click Servers, and choose
Create > Server.
In the dialog, type a name for your server in the General tab. On the
Connection tab, in the Host name/address box, type localhost. Fill in your
user name and the password you supplied when installing PostgreSQL,

Thanks for the warning, Edson. I wasn’t planning on sharing data folders (I
just assumed that wouldn’t work), but nevertheless it’s good to know.
