Revit 2012 Add In Install

Hi, I am currently using both 2011 & 2012 Revit Architecture versions while I wait for all of the consultants to catch up - I installed both versions of the add in, but only the 2011 vesrion shows up, any ideas?

Thanks, Guy

Not sure off hand but these will help narrow it down.

• Do they both show up under the start menu?
  
  
• What version of Windows are you running?
  
  
• If Vista or Windows 7, does this folder exist? Does the 2012 folder contain CRUGRevitAddin_2012.addin?
  C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Revit\Addins\2012\Charlotte Revit User Group Tools
  
  
• If XP, does this folder exist? Does the 2012 folder contain CRUGRevitAddin_2012.addin?
  C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Autodesk\Revit\Addins\2012\Charlotte Revit User Group Tools

I just realized that he utility creates a new tab, "Revit User Group AddIn", instead of placing it into the standard "Add-Ins" folder, where I assumed it would br. Thanks for the prompt response.

Hello,
tried to install 2 or 3 times without succes
win xp 64 bits
in 2011 no problem
in 2012 noting.
I tried to install the addin after an update of revit structure 2012

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Autodesk\Revit\Addins\2011\Charlotte Revit User Group Tools

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Autodesk\Revit\Addins\2012

please help :-)
I find the addin very useful

Try this:

- Download http://www.revitusergroup.com/Addins/2012/2012_XP.zip
- Extract the zip file and copy the contents of the 2012 folder to

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Autodesk\Revit\Addins\2012

- Next time you open Revit you should see the adding under a 'Revit User Group' ribbon tab.

Hello,
It worked but I had to create the Charlotte Revit User Group Tools folder under addin\2012
and move the RevitUserGroupTools.dll under that folder.

Now It is working fine.

Thanks for the help

Sorry, I meant to mention that. I also located the error in the original setup so that should work now as well.
