# How to install bibisco on another PC/Mac

First thing first: bibisco is a **desktop** application that **stores data on your PC/Mac**.

Therefore, **there are no copies of your work on the web**: neither at [bibisco.com](https://bibisco.com) nor at Gumroad, the e-commerce platform that distributes bibisco.  

So to install bibisco on another PC/Mac you have to do these operations: 

1. Transfer your projects from the current PC/Mac to the new PC/Mac. 
2.  Download bibisco again to the new PC/Mac.
3.  Import your projects in bibisco in the new PC/Mac.
4. (Optional) Uninstall bibisco in the old PC/Mac.

### 1) Transfer your projects from the current PC/Mac to the new PC/Mac

***If your project directory is already synchronized with a cloud drive*** (Google Drive, Dropbox, etc...) you don't have to do anything. If you want to know how to synchronize your projects with a cloud drive take a look [here](/how-to-save-projects-on-a-cloud-drive.md). 

***If your project directory is NOT synchronized with a cloud drive*** you have to export your projects as archive and transfer the exported files on the new PC/Mac.
