Combining data from several "divers"

Post by Newmo »

Hi there.
Have recently upgraded from a PC to a Mac and in the process have migrated from Suunto DM3 to Macdive. All old data transferred without difficulty.
In the process of setting up personal info noticed that 2 divers (cobra diver and 0) already exist, both are me and account for all my existing dives.
Is there a way to merge these divers with my current personal info so that only one diver is shown? As it stands there are no dives attached to my name.
Thanks for your help

Select all of the dives in the main dives view, and change the diver to whichever one you want it to be.

Then in Divers, remove the divers you no longer want.

Nick
After I select all of the dives how do I change the diver. Don't see any way to do this. Even though I have put my own name in as a diver it does not appear in the list of divers.

To change the diver, open the dive inspector and choose a different diver from the drop down menu.

This works for any selected dives, so you can change them all in one go.

Like so.

If you don't have a diver in this list, then are you sure you created a Diver? Can you attach a screenshot of your Diver from the Divers tab?
