Migrate
Migrating from kJams 32bit to 64bit
Windows
- are you on Windows 11? if not, upgrade your windows. Does NOT work on windows 10!
- download the 64bit edition of the kJams that you use
- Install and run it
- if you see it running 32bit, then you ran the wrong version. Quit that and run the 64bit version
- are you all set? if not, get help!
- in the Windows Start menu, search for "add remove", click "Add or Remove Programs"
- search for "kJams"
- next to the kJams 32bit version, to the right, click the "three dots" menu, pick "uninstall"
- complete that and you're done!
macOS
- run kJams 32bit one last time
- in the help menu, pick "deactivate computer"
- this will free up your license from the 32bit version, provide your license file, and further instructions
- upgrade your OS from Mojave to an OS that is at least 2 revisions lower than the most up to date
- eg: as of the day of this writing, the latest macOS is 26. Before that was macOS 15, and before that was macOS 14.
- that means you SHOULD upgrade your mac to at least macOS 14 (or later, later is better)
- kJams MAY work on earlier versions, eg: macOS 13, but support may be limited
- if your mac won't update to a supported OS, you may need to get an updated mac. Ebay has'm for cheap
- if you're on a NEW computer (not the same as the one running 32bit)
- clone your kJams folder to the new computer
- now, download the 64bit edition of the kJams that you had
- now follow the activation instructions
