    Copying data from an existing installation?

    Is there a simple way to do this?  I have a lot of media files that a number of sites I'm creating must have in their library.  It would make my life so much easier to be able to copy the node info from and existing installation and then just duplicate the relevent folders in the new sites media folder.  Is there anything that does this?

    Hey Tony,

    You can use this http://our.umbraco.org/projects/developer-tools/export-media to download media and then use Desktop Media Uploader to upload it again

    Of course if you need the same ID's you'll have to restore the database and copy the files up.

    Sorry, my lack of clarity.  I HAVE the media, but unfortunately the media uploadeer is not up to the job.  Therefore, the method described seems to be the best way to do so
