Precautions before upgrading to 10.1...are there any?

Hello to all!

Have been busy for the past three weeks on a road trip to shoot video for my upcoming projects. In the meanwhile, there has literally been a lot of water that has passed beneath the bridge [In UK it is the case with many bridges!] as far as our dear old FCPX [which is being renewed every few months in an almost miraculour manner] is concerned!

I am presently in a dilemma! I already have about 4 projects all prepared for finishing touches on my timeline and have my camera's belly full of video clips needed for addition to these projects. From what little I have read of this new upgrade, I understand that there will be a drastic change in which projects and events will be reorganised and placed under a new heading 'LIBRARY'. Should I ignore this upgrade for a while and proceed upon 'known territory' in getting out the unfinished projects, or should I go in for the upgrade straightaway? I know that the decision has to be mine but I seek counsel from experienced members of this forum.

Eagerly looking forwards for pearls!

iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9), garage band, FCPX:10.0.9 version

This will assist in knowing what's going on:

Some users have had no major issues updating, others not so lucky.

It's important to know and understand the consequences of updating.

Personally I've isolated 10.0.9 and and all associated Events and Projects.

You may even consider a dual boot option (seperate drive) with a clean install of Mavericks and FCXP X 10.1.

Yes, you can't go wrong with that duo.

Steve Martin is also an excellent comedian, though he seems to have gained a few pounds and started tinting his naturally white hair. 😉 (Apologies, Steve, if you're looking in).

He also looks years younger !

It must be the old adage of "an Apple a day" keeping him looking so well.

Hello Ian. Your country seems to have taken a beating by the winds and rain recently. Hope things have returned to normalcy.

I am not jealous of Steve Martin's external appearances, but am jealous of his ability to eat Apple's new upgrade as easily as one can eat an apple!

To me, trying this new upgrade can be likened to this task of one python swallowing up another like-sized python...a struggle to swallow and more [struggle] to digest!😁
