Posted · Importing Profiles from an Older Version

Hello.  I'm having a frustrating issue.  I've been running on ver 4.13 for a couple of years now, using a plugin for my Dremel 3D45 printer.  I have several fine tuned and tweaked profiles for different print types that I've perfected.  Today I decided to clean up my Mac hard drive and I deleted an old Cura version.  For some reason when I went to open the 4.13 version it was treating me like a brand new user and didn't have my Dremel plugin or any of my saved profiles.  I've re-installed Dremel plugin and I've located my old profiles on my hard drive, but they're .cfg files, not .curaprofile fles so I can't import them.. how can I re-add them to my running instance of Cura?  Thanks.

    This can be tedious but it should be doable.  Start by using the "Help | Show Configuration Folder" command in your new Cura version.  That will show you where those files need to go.  Copy and paste them from the configuration folders of the older version into the equivalent folders of the new Cura version.  They should show up when you re-start Cura.

        Cura 5.7 is here and it brings a handy new workflow improvement when using Thingiverse and Cura together, as well as additional capabilities for Method series printers, and a powerful way of sharing print settings using new printer-agnostic project files! Read on to find out about all of these improvements and more.

      • Release Notes: S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 (Latest)

        Dustin posted a topic in Firmware,

        S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
