A word of warning. I've installed the update and I've had serious stability issues immediately after upgrading, so proceed with caution. I'm still trying to come up with a solution. It crashes every time I try to change to the library tab. If could be something in my library, because I can open with a blank library fine, but be careful if you're upgrading. I've contacted technical support to see if they have a solution.
