Transferring Extensions/Settings between computers with different Mac OS versions?
I've been having trouble the past two months getting extension managers to work to reinstall PVII extensions and have made a couple previous posts on this forum regarding that issue. I am posting this as a new thread because I'm considering doing something else altogether but not sure it's possible.
I have two computers:
Main computer: 2019 Mac Pro Intel now running the final version of Sequoia, and
Secondary computer: MacBook Pro M3, running latest version of Tahoe.
Both computers have the latest version of Dreamweaver installed
History:
When I upgraded my main computer to Sonoma several months ago, I lost my PVII extensions. I have tried three different extension managers to reinstall including DMX zone. Two of the extension managers appear to open properly, but showed no extensions installed in Dreamweaver nor will they allow me to install any new extensions. DMX zone launches but no windows appear. The real mystery is my M3 MacBook Pro, running the latest version of Tahoe allows me to launch DMX zone and install all my extensions properly! Why on earth does DMX zone work in the latest OS on an M series computer and yet won't launch in Sonoma on an Intel computer from back when DMX zone was popular?
As a Hail Mary, last night, I upgraded my main computer from Sonoma to the latest version of Sequoia (even though it is supposed to support Tahoe, lots of people are having trouble with Tahoe on the 2019 Mac Pro Intels and I don't need any new problems). My hope was that if I upgraded to Sequoia, perhaps DMX zone would launch like it does on my laptop, but no such luck.
So this brings me to my question for which nobody may have an answer? Is there any way I could uninstall Dreamweaver on my 2019 Mac Pro, then reinstall (clean install) the Dreamweaver app then somehow copy all the DW Extension files currently on my laptop M3 running Tahoe and paste those into the new clean version of Dreamweaver on my Intel machine? In essence, that would allow me to bypass an ExtensionManager for now, but would that work and if so, which files would I need to copy from one machine to the other and where are they located? I am obviously getting desperate for a solution!
Just hard to imagine that there is not a single ExtensionManager out there that works with macOS's for the past two years or so (at least Sonoma and Sequoia) and I don't know why DMX zone all of a sudden works in the latest OS on M3 series Mac! If anything, it seems backwards?
