The easiest method to backup & transfer your Indigo (version 4) configuration to another machine is as follows:
- Backup the /Library/Application Support/Perceptive Automation/. The method I suggest is to use the built-in compression tools, by going to the /Library/Application Support folder, and right clicking on Perceptive Automation. Then choose Compress “Perceptive Automation”.
- One issue with this method, is that you need to backup and also migrate any external Applescripts that you use with your automation. I have created a folder in ~/Username/Documents/Indigo Scripts that contains all of my external scripts… Make sure to also copy any Applescripts, and place them in the same location on the new computer.
- Take the zip file, and transfer it to the new computer, along with the latest Indigo Installer.
- Uncompress the Perceptive Automation folder into the /Library/Application Support folder on the new computer
- Install Indigo on the new computer.
- If you have an W800Rf32A, you will need to install the KeySpan Driver (or equivalent)… (This assumes you have the RS232 version)
- If you use an 2413 or 2412, you will need the FTDI web site… The Indigo Online homepage has the web link (See http://www.perceptiveautomation.com/indigo/help/html/00200_interfaceSetup.html ), or click here…
- The Latest version that I have seen is v2.2.14 from October 21, 2009.
- Start Indigo on the new machine, and File -> Open and choose your Indigo Database.
- Check your preferences, and ensure that everything is running correctly…
I have used this process multiple times, and have not run into any real issues…
Alternatively, to manually Uninstall Indigo:
- Remove the Indigo Application from your Applications folder (eg. Indigo 3.app , Indigo 4.app)
- Remove the Indigo Folders from /Library –> Application Support –> Perceptive Automation –> Indigo 2 and/or Indigo 4
- Remove from /System –> Library –> Extensions –> IndigoOverrides.kext
- Remove from the Preferences folder ( ~/Library –> LaunchAgents –> com.perceptiveautomation.IndigoServer2.plist )
- Remove from the ~/Library –> Preferences Folder the following files:
- Indigo Client Prefs.indiPref
- Indigo Client Settings.indiPref
- com.perceptiveautomation.indigo_client.plist
- com.perceptiveautomation.indigo_client4.plist
