What is the easiest way that I can export all data (notes, and HH) so that I can have an identical database on both my PC and my laptop? Currently, everything is on my laptop with all of my HH's on an external HD. I would like to be able to update the two databases to keep them about the same if this can be done somewhat simply.

Thanks. Chris.

You want to make sure you backup your Processed/Archived hand histories, your entire \config folder, and your exportednotes file. http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/?f=119. I usually just copy my entire \Holdem Manager directory.

Make sure you export your tournament summaries: Tourney > Results > Dataview > All Hands > Right-Click > Export Tourney Results and Summaries.

I would also make sure you manually export the database to hand history text files:

HM > Options > Database Management > Connect > Export Hands

How do I export or import hands into and from Holdem Manager? - http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=173

Make sure you copy that folder as well as the other stuff I mentioned.


Under Vista and Windows 7 make sure UAC is disabled http://www.holdemmanager.net/faq/afmmain.aspx?faqid=73 or else you must set \holdem manager\dbcontrolpanel.exe, holdemmanager.exe and hmhud.exe are started as administrator. Run the windows explorer and navigate to your Holdemmanager installation directory. Right click the executables and select "Run as admin" from the popup menu. Windows 7 you MUST set all the executables to always run as admin.

* Install the complete setup of HM: http://www.holdemmanager.com/downloads/holdemmanager.zip
* Download the latest patch HM: http://www.holdemmanager.com/downloads/HmBetaUpdate.exe

* Install PostgreSQL 8.4, with your firewall uninstalled or turned off if windows firewall - http://www.enterprisedb.com/products/pgdownload.do#windows


Start Holdem Manager and connect/create a new UTF DB.

Search the FAQ for the setup guide for your poker site:

Manually import all your hands, notes, and huds.


Later you can do weekly exports of recent hands on each machine and import to the other machine.
