Charity Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 So I got a copy of 16 from Tech Info and just bought a real 16 version. In the past there have been people who say it was a problem if they did not remove their prior version. Is that still the case? If so, how do I remove it from my Mac since I do not see an uninstall in its folder? I don't want any problems. thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wim Decorte Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 As an aside; look into using sparse image bundles when installing trial or pre-release software: http://blog.fosketts.net/2015/07/22/how-to-use-mac-os-x-sparse-bundle-disk-images/ cleanup is as simple as just throwing away the image if you don't need it anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Ormond Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 I'll echo that. I started doing that, and it has made it so much easier to make the switch. It's easy, and I do it with almost all software that is a trial. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonkeybreadSoftware Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Depending on which prerelease you got, it may have been the final version. But in case of reinstall, just move old FileMaker folder to trash (on Mac). on Windows, please use uninstaller. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
