How

The team rebuilds your templates by hand, from your .tpz template files.

What to take out of Home Inspector Pro

• Your templates are .tpz files.
• On Windows, these folders are under C:\Program Files (x86)\Home Inspector Pro:
  • Your templates, in the Data folder.
  • Report PDFs, in the Client Reports folder. Copy the report PDFs from there.
  • Images related to your inspections, in the Picture Library folder. Copy them from there.
• On Windows, copy the whole Home Inspector Pro folder to an external hard drive or a file host such as Dropbox or Google Drive. The backup covers Inspection Files, Report PDFs and Templates.
• On a Mac, copy the Home Inspector Pro folder in Documents. Copying it moves your templates (.tpz) and inspection files (.hzf) to another Mac.
• Export your contacts from HIP Office: choose Data Management, then Clients or Agents, then Export Clients or Export Agents; HIP Office emails the .csv file to you.

What InspectDay rebuilds

• Your inspection templates, with their sections, areas and items.
• Your own comments, as findings and recommended actions in your libraries.
