Cdanna77 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 when everyone here says to BACK UP your sequences. They mean it!!!My hard drive crashed on my laptop and the show was over. but Thank fully at least I backed up this years show so I had that. But all my others that were works in progress and the ones people shared are all gone. So please learn from me and BACK UP YOUR SEQUENCES...including the audio. Merry Christmas to all.

seriouslylosingit Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Thanks for the VERY important reminder. Sometimes we get so caught up in life that we forget these things.. Best of luck with getting it all back. R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Boyd Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 My sequences go on Dropbox, MS Onedrive, a thumbdrive and when finished, the entire show is backed up on a DVD. If I lose one PC, I can pull them up on another. I even backup the visualizations and Superstar sequences. I've always said, you can never have enough back-ups. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cdanna77 Posted December 21, 2014 Author Share Posted December 21, 2014 No prob. I just want others to realize the importance of IT CAN/and prob will happen to you scenario. At least this yrs show was backed up. So I'm able to continue but I could have been devastating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgrant Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Not only do I have copies on a couple of flash drives, I also have a backup computer, fully programmed and ready to run other than copying the flash drive files into the backup machine and usually the machine is already updated too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a different com assignment on each pc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgrant Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 In switching a computer out in case of a failure, the ports have to be reconfigured via the HWU but that's easy and only takes moments. For E1.31, just plug it into the switch and all done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Boyd Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 That's why I love E1.31. 1 cable out to a switch and that's all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
