What is a beta release?
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
A beta release is a release which is almost feature complete and is fairly
|
||||
stable. However there may still be a few `features <http://wiki.openlp.org/Version_2_Features>`_
|
||||
to complete, and `bugs <https://bugs.launchpad.net/openlp>`_ we've not yet fixed.
|
||||
It is used by several people without serious problems. However there is a small
|
||||
possibility that it could still crash occasionally or do unexpected things. It
|
||||
is intended for those who want the latest version, and are prepared to give the
|
||||
program a good test before using it in a live situation to ensure they won't
|
||||
encounter any unexpected problems. If you want to have a look at the latest beta

release then just `download it <http://openlp.org/en/download.html>`_.

Upgrading
|
||||
=========
|
||||
|
||||
Does 2.0 replace 1.2, or can they be run side by side?
|
||||
------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
Can I upgrade from any 1.9.x or 2.0.x release to 2.2?
|
||||
-----------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
It is perfectly safe to install 2.0 on a system with 1.2. Both versions are
|
||||
installed in separate places, so you can still go back to 1.2. You can even run
|
||||
them at the same time!
|
||||
No, you should first upgrade to the last stable release in the 2.0-series
|
||||
(2.0.5) and then upgrade to 2.2 to ensure that data is correctly converted.
|
||||
|
||||
2.0 stores its data in a separate folder to 1.2, so your data is perfectly safe,
|
||||
and whatever you do in 2.0 will not damage 1.2
|
||||
|
||||
Are 1.2 and 2.0 compatible?
|
||||
---------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
No. However imports exist to transfer your data to the new version.
|
||||
|
||||
I have a computer that is quite old, should I upgrade?
|
||||
------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
2.0 does require significantly more resources than v1.2. Therefore if your
|
||||
computer does not have much memory you may find 2.0 will struggle, `especially`
|
||||
when changing between slides.
|
||||
|
||||
Why can I not see my 1.2 songs, bibles and themes in 2.0?
|
||||
---------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
This is an beta release, which means it is not finished and one of the things we
|
||||
haven't completely finished yet is importing 1.2 data automatically. We plan to
|
||||
do this `Version 1.9.6 (beta 2) <http://wiki.openlp.org/Version_2_Milestones#Version_1.9.6_.28beta_2.29>`_.
|
||||
|
||||
How do I transfer my 1.2 song database?
|
||||
Can I upgrade directly from 1.2 to 2.2?
|
||||
---------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
In OpenLP 2.0, go to the :menuselection:`File --> Import --> Song` menu.
|
||||
In the Wizard that appears, click Next and choose "openlp.org v1.x" from the
|
||||
Format list. Click the search button on the Filename prompt, and at the bottom
|
||||
of the dialog, copy the following into the File name prompt::
|
||||
No, you will have to install 2.0.5 first, then import the 1.2 data and then
|
||||
upgrade to 2.2. See the 2.0 documentation for how to upgrade from 1.2 to
|
||||
2.0.
|
||||

Does 2.2 replace 2.0, or can they be run side by side?
|
||||
------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
*(This must be in the popup file chooser dialog. Don't enter it directly into
|
||||
the wizard).*
|
||||
OpenLP 2.2 and 2.0 cannot run side by side. When running 2.2 for first time
|
||||
any existing 2.0 data will automatically be converted to the 2.2 format.
|
||||
Note that OpenLP 2.2 is not backwards compatible with 2.0. Once you have
|
||||
upgraded from 2.0, version 2.0 cannot read the upgraded files. OpenLP 2.2 will
|
||||
ask if it should make a backup on startup, which can be used in case you want
|
||||
to downgrade to 2.0 again.
|
||||
|
||||
Click Open, then in the wizard just click Next and wait for the import to complete.
|
||||
|
||||
How do I transfer my 1.2 Bibles?
|
||||
--------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
In OpenLP 2.0, go to the :menuselection:`File --> Import --> Bible` menu.
|
||||
In the Wizard that appears, click Next and choose "openlp.org v1.x" from the
|
||||
Format list.
|
||||
Click the search button on the Filename prompt, and at the bottom of the dialog,
|
||||
copy the following into the File name prompt::

||||

||||
|
||||
Choose the Bible, Click Open, then in the wizard just click Next, enter the
|
||||
License details, and wait for the import to complete.
|
||||
|
||||
How do I transfer my 1.2 Themes?
|
||||
--------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
In openlp.org v1, export each theme by selecting it in the Theme Manager, and
|
||||
then clicking the picture of a blue folder with red arrow on the Theme Managers
|
||||
toolbox. This theme file can then be imported into V2 using the
|
||||
:menuselection:`File --> Import --> Theme` menu.
|
||||
|
||||
I can't get my 2.0 theme to look the same as 1.2
|
||||
------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
OpenLP 2.0 is a complete rewrite using a completely different programming
|
||||
language so it would work on different types of system. There are differences in
|
||||
how the old and new languages draw text on the screen, and therefore it is
|
||||
unlikely you'll get an exact match.
|
||||
OpenLP 2.2 cannot read service files created by OpenLP 2.0.4 and earlier, it can only
|
||||
read service files created by OpenLP 2.0.5.

----------------------------------------------------
|

|

Why is there no presentations plugin available on OS X?
|
||||
-------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
Currently the presentations plugin does not support Impress on OS X. The
|
||||
reason for that is that the interoperability component (pyuno) in LibreOffice on
|
||||
Mac OS X cannot be used by OpenLP due to incompatibilities between the version
|
||||
of Python used by LibreOffice and the Python version used by OpenLP.
|
||||
|
||||
Currently the presentations plugin is not bundled with OpenLP on OS X. The
|
||||
reason for that is that the OpenOffice.org version on Mac OS X does not contain
|
||||
the (more exact: does only contain a broken) interoperability component (the so
|
||||
called pyuno bridge) which could be used by OpenLP. As soon as the
|
||||
interoperability component works on OS X we can re-enable the plugin and bundle

it. We are really sorry for that.

Why can MS PowerPoint not be used on Mac OS X?
