Just like w/Windows, I do not believe in upgrades, at best they are  
not 100% error free, as you are finding out.  Especially with your  
example, your upgrading 2 versions back.  1 is bad enough.  It is  
much easier to do a clean install, along with the inconvenience of  
reinstalling your programs.  Backup your data files, remember the  
path from where they came from, do a clean install, reinstall the  
programs, place the data file(s) back to where they came from.  I  
have been working with computers since the late '70s, and at least  
for me and most of my colleagues, is how we deal with a new OS.
I will say, the exception is Linux.  Most of the time, upgrades with  
Linux work.
