Easy Question...

I've been running the CF9 Beta (developer edition) since July.

With the this month's official release, do I need to "upgrade" my CF 9 Beta to the CF 9  official release?

Many Thanks

    Yes you should, because a bunch of stuff has changed, and there's some non-backwards-compatible stuff that got implemented between the public beta and the release.

    Besides: one should never run beta software in production if a release version is available (this applies to any software).  If you were to need to raise a support ticket with Adobe, they're not likely to help unless you're running the release version.

    Adam,

    Thanks so much for the thougtful response.

    I just figured out how to back-up my administrator settings in CF9 beta. Hence, I will do an uninstall of the beta and a install of the official release.

    It's surprising how Adobe gave no guidance on what to do.

    Nevertheless, thanks for answering my question. Very appreciative of your time

    Best regards

    Hi Blue ! I am in the same boat. Could you tell me how you backed up your CF 9 beta admin settings and also if you have already installed the official release whether you encountered any issues! Many thanks !
