New Computer- Download Anew or Update Aperture 3.1.2?
I'm finally getting a decent machine to handle Aperture 3:
Intel i7-3820 4.67GHz Quad Core
32GBs DDR3 1333Mhz RAM
120GB SATA6GBp/s SSD (OS & Application Drive)
Nvidia GTS 450 1GB DDR3 Video Card
120GB SATA6GBp/s SSD Scratch Drive
3TB 7,200rpm 64MB Cache Hard Drive (backup & storage)
It will run OS Lion 10.7.5
Plan "A" is to do a fresh install of Aperture from the app store, then somehow migrate my projects from the old imac which is running aperture 3.1.2 .
Is this feasable? System limitations on the old (early 2006 core-duo) leave me unable to update on this machine... plan "A", while costing $80, seems like it might leave me with a less bug prone version of aperture, and spare me the hassle of re-establishing the annoying proof of retail purchase replacement serial number thing. Has anyone out there used this method to establish Aperture on a new machine?
