Doug in Alaska Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 I received my upgrade DVD and am ready to upgrade from version 6 to version 7. Do I need to uninstall version 6 first or does version 7 overwrite version 6? Or after upgrading are both versions installed on my machine? Thanks for the help. Quote Link to comment
+Les Nomades Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 (edited) I received my upgrade DVD and am ready to upgrade from version 6 to version 7. Do I need to uninstall version 6 first or does version 7 overwrite version 6? Or after upgrading are both versions installed on my machine? Thanks for the help. When I upgrated to 7m I didn't uninstall 6 and it worked perfectly. After upgrating, when you open mapsouce, make sure to select CS7 in the version window beside the icones. All version installed can be viewed in that window Edited December 18, 2005 by Nomade Quote Link to comment
+Rubberhead Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 Version 7 won't install unless you've got version 6 installed. And, if it's anything like Bluecharts, the old version will still be installed. So if you need room on your harddrive you will need to erase the old version. I would rename the subdirectory for Version 6 to something different and make sure that version 7 still works before totally deleting version 6. Quote Link to comment

I ordered mine on 11/24 and still havn't received it yet! Quote Link to comment
Doug in Alaska Posted December 19, 2005 Author Share Posted December 19, 2005 If I remember correctly, I first ordered it back in August but then reordered it around the first part of December. Quote Link to comment

Doug in Alaska Posted December 19, 2005 Author Share Posted December 19, 2005 I really don't think the order I placed in August was ever shipped because other people who ordered at the same time received their dvds some time agol Quote Link to comment
+GOT GPS? Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 I ordered mine sometime in November, and It installed fine, since I had Version 5, so you do not need V6 to get V7. Quote Link to comment
+Vertigo Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 I hope not, because I still have 4.01 Unlocked at that! Quote Link to comment

+GeoDigger1222 Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 I upgraded from CS 4.01 to CS 7. So that shouldn't be a problem. Quote Link to comment
+TBK Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 I got my V7 update today (free) so they must have another batch in. Quote Link to comment
+Vertigo Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 I got mine yesterday (ordered 11/24), they sent it 2nd day air! Quote Link to comment
