I think I lost a field in a Mac transfer
Posted: Mon Dec 20, 2021 8:51 pm
I just moved to a new Mac, and instead of using any kind of migration, I manually moved my data and installed all of my apps. After installing DVDPedia, I went to my Dropbox folder/Apps/DVDpedia and double-clicked Library.dvdpedia. This successfully imported all of my DVDs. Yay!
But now a month or so later, I’ve noticed that my custom checkbox field for whether each DVD has been ripped to my PLEX server isn’t there. I went into Preferences and saw that two custom checkbox fields were checked. I tried adding them and only one is available to me and it’s not populated.

How do I get this data back? it would be a HUGE hassle to recreate so I hope it’s in here somewhere.
I did save a full backup of my previous Mac so if I have to dig through preference files somewhere I can do it.
