[QUOTE="caqmr, post: 533827, member: 28553"] Pardon a really dumb question, but it is one that I haven't seen covered in any of the upgrade threads. With archive and install, I understand that the user account information is sent to an external drive before the installation. If the iMac has two user accounts, are both settings archived? And secondly, after installation, is the information that was sent to the external drive automatically replaced into the new operating system, or do I have to manually do it. We have a two month old iMac without much installed software except for iWork and I am dreading to attempt anything more than a simple upgrade. Perhaps I am worrying more than I have to!!!
