Something just doesn't sound right about this to me. First of all, I've never known anyone to have problems transferring the vegetation from one Vue version to another due to upgrading. Heck, many of us did just that last summer when Vue 4 was released and we upgraded from v.3.1. Yes, some of the plants sometimes are reluctant, but it is different plants for different people, and when there is a problem like that, you just write to E-on, describe the difficulty, and they help get the veggie installed. Secondly, the only difference between a "full" version of Vue and an "upgrade" version is the price, nothing else. If you upgraded Vue from v.2 to v.3, your Vue 3 is a full and complete version of the program. The price has nothing to do with the actual application. Have you tried yet copying your Plants folder from the Vue that is all installed to the newly-installed Vue? That alone should accomplish the task -- although there might be one or two plants that refuse to install; in those cases, you simply install them newly with their own serial numbers. I'm not trying to say you're not having problems getting the veggies installed, Beck, but just that I'm very confused as to what the actual problem is.
