I have tried to update CDpedia with the latest version 5.2.1 but first it gave me an error and now the software has vanished from my system! Luckily I have been able to re-install the new version and all my files were there but Bruji should attend to this.

Thank you for the details. It was likely a permissions issue on the computer. We will keep an eye for possible bugs in the updater engine.

Your data is kept separate from CDpedia so that the program can be updated without worry and replaced if needed without affecting your album collection. The location of the data folder is in your home folder at ~/Library/Application Support/CDpedia. It's important to back it up on a regular basis as a precaution. If you are using a solution like Time Machine, SuperDuper! or Backblaze this is done for you automatically.
