Hi,
My guess you read two different sources with different aspects of the topic.
Of course you can use the new version's pg_dump only if you have both versions.
I have used the 8.4's pg_dump with the 9.3's pg_restore without any problem, though.
However, keep in mind there could be difference between major versions, which
could affect your application.
Regards,
Sándor Daku

I am using a Mac with the latest operating system Yosemite.The upgrade instructions I have found in the archive confuse me in one way:I would like to upgrade to Postgres.App. In their instructions they say,"For best results, you should remove any existing installation of PostgreSQL. Here's a run-down of the most common ways you may have installed it previously:"However, in the instructions on this list, it is recommended (strongly) to use the pg_dump contained in the version you wish to upgrade to to transfer your tables.I do not understand how I can remove the existing installation with the mission-critical data it contains and use pg_dump from the new version to access that data.I know I am missing something. Please tell me what.Thank you very much,John Gage
