Good evening.
I as unable to do the quick upgrade 10.4.11 -> 10.5, so I resorted to the "Archive and Install" option.
How do I restore the my preferences from various applications (Apple and non-Apple) for use in 10.5?
Thanks for your time.

Hi Bruce,
No idea why an A&I would interfere with any of that!???
Do you have a Backup?
What exact steps did you do/use?
Thanks for your reply.
I got the blue screen after trying the simple upgrade option, so I progressed to the A&I option (with "Preserve user and network settings" option checked).
At the other end of the A&I, I have the new system installed with all applications, but none of the preferences, documents, pictures, or contents of other folders came out the other end.
Luckily, I do have a backup.
Where would I find the things like Safari bookmark list?
Nice day here in VT.
Look in...
/Users/SomeUserName/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist
upgrade to 10.5: how do I restore preferences (Safari, Mail, etc)?
