i have a mac ibook laptop (os x 10.2.4) & a win 2k desktop. i would like to be able to transfer live sets between the two, but when i copy a set over from the mac, it is not recognized on the pc - can't open it. has anyone tried this before? what is the issue? obviously, there are many applications whose document files can be copied and recognized on both systems (e.g. ms office, adobe)...

found the answer to my own question: you have to rename the live set file under windows by appending the .als suffix, since the mac version doesn't use a suffix. then the pc version can open it. it helps also to "save set self-contained" so all the referenced clips are in one place ready to be copied.

OK, I see from other posts that sharring Live Sets between MAC & PC is possible, but has anyone tried with multiple VSTs? I see that all the posts were before Live 4. I'm afraid that EVEN if both computers have the same VSTs, that it might crash. Anyone?
