[LOGic] Logic 8 with microHam MK

[Mel Martin]

Easiest way is to re-install from your CD into the same directory then 
reapply an earlier version if you have it. That way settings and license 
are preserved. I still have .78 here... but you might want to go back a 
few versions....

First you do a backup (or 2) first.... and make a copy of the whole 
Logic directory tree to keep for a few weeks in case you find you have 
forgotten something or to revert to the current version.

The only thing to watch for are customized reports and custom updates to 
the Prefix table. If you need to preserve these it can get more 
complicated. If you still have the problem... just copy the saved 
directory tree back over it and you will be back where you started... or 
you can re-apply the latest update.... should come to the same thing 
unless you have made a lot of customizations.

In any case, it's a good dry run for the inevitable day when the disk 
drive dies ;-)
