Installing Aqua Data

If you've already installed a previous version of Aqua Data
Studio, it is best to rename the old version (the package
unarchives to "Aqua Data Studio.app").
Unarchive the package to the desktop..
Aqua Data Studio will automatically detect all of the settings
of your previous installation, including the license
information.
Launching Aqua Data
Studio
Aqua Data Studio can be launched by double clicking it.
Notice that there are two installations of Aqua Data Studio in
the Dock in the screenshot below. This illustrates how it is
possible to have a current version and an older version installed.
The two cannot be run simulataneously.
Using the UNIX style
package
The UNIX style package available at http://www.aquafold.com/downloads.html
is useful for launching Aqua Data Studio from a bash terminal. Once
this package is downloaded and unarchived, it can be launched from
the terminal.
To launch Aqua Data Studio from the
terminal, type the folowing from within the datastudio
directory
$: ./datasudio-osx.sh
Note: Launching Aqua Data Studio from a bash terminal uses the
default version of Java set in Applications > Utilities >
Java > Java Preferences.app. Be sure to select the
version of Java appropriate to the version of Aqua Data Studio you
have downloaded.
