Follow the instructions below to upgrade your Aurora Edit or Aurora Edit LD system.
Aurora Edit version 6.5
To upgrade your workstation to Aurora Edit 6.5:
1. Upgrade the memory in your workstation if needed.
See the Aurora Edit 6.5 Memory Upgrade document located in the Docs folder on
your Aurora Suite CD.
2. Procure the AURORA-EDIT-SYS license on the DSM:
a. Run the License Request Wizard.
b. From the License drop-down list, select AURORA-EDIT-SYS and select a license
for each Aurora Edit workstation you have on your NewsShare.
c. Email the generated file following the instructions.
See
“Licensing Your Aurora Suite Software” on page 23 for more information.
3. For all Aurora Edit workstations:
a. Using the Add/Remove Programs Control Panel, uninstall the previous version of
Aurora Edit software.
b. Install the 6.5 Aurora Edit software. See “Installing the Aurora Edit Software” on
page 18 .
4. Upgrade the SmartBins server.
5. Upgrade the NewsShare Server.
NOTE: For all Vibrint Services, which include Conform Server, SmartBins Service,
Cache Service, Export Service, and FTP Service, the password has been changed to
“Triton2008”. If you have a previous version of these services, you need to change
this password in the Services first so the Conform Server will work correctly.
Aurora Edit LD version 6.5
Aurora Edit LD version 6.5 now connects to the NewsShare database, not the Aurora
Browse database.
NOTE: Sequences that exist within the Aurora Edit LD 6.3 application will not be
present in the MediaFrame 6.5 database after you upgrade. It is advised that all
important sequences be exported to the NewsShare database prior to upgrading the
Aurora Edit LD software to version 6.5.
To upgrade to Aurora Edit version 6.5:
1. Uninstall the current version of Aurora Edit LD.
