OK to delete previous versions as you update?

[TRS80]

I just finished the update- all 700MB of it.

As I get these newer versions of Live, I've been keeping the previous versions. Is it OK to trash these earlier versions? For example, I want to throw away everything except the latest version I have of live-


Also, where do all the instruments, midi files, and samples stay in Live? In the app itself? Somewhere else on the drive? If so where?

Thanks for helping me out, I know these questions are very basic to some of you!

Sure, no problem to delete previous versions, but recommend you hold on to your latest known good version until you're happy the new one is as good/no new bugs that affect you.

Everything else resides in the Library... on a Mac at <home>/Library/Application Support/Ableton

Hi. Thanks for your answer about previous version. I've also got stuff in HD:users: my profile:Music: ableton: live recordings. Is this wrong? I don't seem to have very much in the locations you said 'everything' else resides in.

Thanks again for your knowledge.

Aidan.

Actually, sorry to have an afterthought, but I also made a shortcut on my desktop for a file for all my projects. Would this likely mess the way ableton is supposed to behave to open stuff.

Thanks again. Aidan.
