morganv mentioned that he had to sit through a default scan with each upgrade of AudioFinder. To avoid this simply copy the file AudioFinder>Default San.memory (or any/all of your saved scans) to the new AudioFinder folder. That's it! When you boot AudioFInder your library will be there just like before. If you change locations for your audio assests you will have to scan the drive, but you can use your existing scan to speed this up - AudioFinder will compare the contents of your scan against the Directory of the souce and mirror those files that have changed instead of re-scanning the whole drive. This takes considerably less time. Of course, if you have tossed your scan documents you will have to scan from scratch but remeber to name and save them for future upgrades!
