[SOLVED] Retaining old custom parts while upgrading the freeware version of EAGLE

[manishanand14]

Hello friends!

I want to upgrade to EAGLE 6.4 from EAGLE 6.3 freeware.

I have made some custom parts in the old version but I want to incorporate them in the new version as well.

Please tell me the method.

You should never save modified parts to the default libraries - always create a new library or save it with another name. That way you will never have problems. Normally Eagle installs into a new directory anyway but it will get confusing to work with multiple libraries with identical names.

Well I copied the old components's corresponding .lbr files into the new version lib folder and now I am able to use them.
