Question for True Image Home 2013
I have 2 images that are from True Image Home 2011 from my Windows 7 unit and Windows XP unit and my Windows 8 PC has True Image Home 2013 installed, will it modify or temper with my old images from True Image Home 2011 making them corrupted or unreadable or should I not worry? I want to know if they are touched by the new 2013 when I enable my external drive with my 2011 images. Thanks for your help. Hope to hear from you soon.

I'm updating from 2012 to 2013 so that I can have backup support for windows 8 pro after I install. The computer that I will install this upgrade on has partitions with with windows 7 ultimate 64x and windows 7 ultimate 32x. I plan on upgrading the 32x version to windows 8 pro. Can I install the 2013 upgrade in both partitions since they are on one computer?

No. The licence supports a single installation. Besides, you don't need it on both OS, as ATI will be able to backup all partitions no matter which OS launched it.

My understanding is version chain backups only need the last differential and full backup to restore an image. True Image prompted for earlier versions which had been deleted. I just pressed cancel on the requests for the missing differential versions and the program completed. Am I wrong in understanding I only need the last differential and full backup to completely recover the last image made?

Gary, you are correct. You only need the full backup and any one of the differentials for a successful restore. If you manually deleted any of the earlier differentials, or moved only some of the backup files to a new location you will see the errors you are describing, but the restore should still be successful. If you had used True Image to make the deletions from within the application, the messages would not have appeared. It is always prudent to have True Image make the deletions for you, not manually delete or move backup files. In 2013, from the Backup and Recovery task screen that contains the task in wish you wish to delete files, right-click the task and select "restore files", you then will see a timeline from which to choose a specific date. You can righ-click on each backup and select "delete this version"

Thanks for your fast response. I was trying to make room on my external drive and deleted some versions in the backup. I'll remember to do it the correct way from now on.

Gary,
Why not set up your task so the deletion will be done automatically by the program as part of the ongoing routine.
