Subject: [vipaudioaccess] Re: Installing Independence Pro
Thanks Steve, thing is I already have the image files. Now this is something I
need answering. When I launch Independence, I get the option of installing from
a volume, but I don't get an option to specify where that volume is, but when I
run the .exe from within the image folder I saved, it prompts me to browse to
the DVD content...and it won't recognize the image files I have.
Ok, so are the image files classed as the "volume" or the "content"? It seems
as if Independence is expecting the volume to be in a certain place in order to
install it from that volume, but where is that? I could download again, but
would rather get my head around the whole process. Cheers steve.

Steve,
This happened to Juan as well because he had Basic, then upgraded later, as did
I.
First, you have to understand Magix's weird naming conventions. The
Independence library goes into a directory called Magix\Independence
Libraries\Independence xxx, where xxx is either Basic or Pro. That whole stem,
starting with "Magix", is placed directly under, or inside, the path you
specify when installing the product. So if you say you want Independence
installed in E:\My Softsynths, you'll get E:\My softsynths\Magix\Independence
libraries\Independence xxx (again, xxx=Basic or Pro).
Now, what you have to do is, when upgrading Pro from Basic, first rename (or
copy) the Basic folder you already have to one where Pro replaces Basic in its
name (see above). Next, start the installer and specify the stem directory (see
above). The installer will find what you already have, properly named
Magix\Independence libraries\Independence Pro, and carry on with the download.
If you use the JAWS cursor to watch the screen, you'll see a whole bunch of
things go flying buy, and the number rapidly climb to somewhere in the 1800's I
think it is. Then, things will slow down to sub-light speed of activity, your
download will commence with the ninth file in the lot, and the rest, as they
say, is future history.
Hope this helps.

Ok, I’ve gone through the usual procedure to install, but when--
selecting where to install from, e.g, DVD, On line or volume, it says
it’s going to install Independence Basic. I have all the Independence
Pro image files, so is there something I’m missing? Steve.
