Can't open project, "catalog is too new"

Error message reads: The document “CurrentVersion.fcpproject” could not be opened. The catalog is too new.
So...how do I open the project?

You're exactly right. I'm just firing up a new machine and didn't check my version against the app store — I'm still getting used to the move of pretty burly applications out of the Software Update realm into the App Store update realm.
Thanks for the quick and accurate diagnosis blimpmedia.

How can I open a catalog created on Win7 LR 1.4.1 on new Mac with latest LR 3.6 download? Too new!!!

Any ideas please...I have transferred the media files and catalogs via my network, definitely onto the pictures folder of my MP 2011 Intel Mac. I go to open the catalog and get this peculiar message saying..
The Lightroom catalog named “Lightroom 3 Catalog” cannot be opened because it is too new to be used by this version of Lightroom. Would you like to select a different catalog?
The catalog appears to have been created by a version of Lightroom that is newer than the Lightroom version you are using.
Is the Mac latest 3.6 version of LR really older and unable to read a latest PC 1.4.1 coded catalog?
Is there anyway of saving the PC generated Catalog in an older catalog format d=so that a mac with 3.6 LR can read it?
any answers very greatfully received!!

I know this was a long time ago, but just in case someone else has this problem. It happened to me and what happened is that I still had LR 3 installed on my computer. Instead of opening LR4, I opened LR3 and it had some photos missing. When I went for my backups, of course they were too new, because they were created with LR4 and I was using 3. Both were side by side and I didn't realize I had opened the wrong one.

Can't open Project Professional 2013 projects in SharePoint 2013

I can't open Project 2013 documents from SharePoint2013.
My environment is:
Project Professional 2013 32 bit
Office Professional 2013 32 bit
IE 9 32 bit
Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit
All other documents (Word, Excel) can be checked out and edited from SharePoint.
When I check out and edit a Project document I get the following error:
Project cannot open the file.
check that the file name a path are correct.
check that the file format is recognized by Project.
Also, I get the same error when trying to open a project document from a mapped SharePoint drive.
Note: This was working on a fresh install of Office 2013 and Project Professional 2013 UNTIL a windows update (Office 2013 SP 1 and other updates)
Am I missing an update?
Thanks!

Hi Ken,
I would try first to repair MS Project from the control panel to see if it fixes your issue.
Hope this helps,

I've a very important document which I can't open anymore: You need a newer version of Numbers to open this spreadsheet.

I've a very important document which I can't open anymore: You need a newer version of Numbers to open this spreadsheet.

I figured out that it doesn't matter, actually it is Qsync, but other prgrams such Sugar Sync create teh same problem
The sync program adds a suffix to the files insite the numbers container
When looking at the files inside the Numbers file/folder, I saw this (note: Alphonse is the name of my computer):
drwxr-xr-x@ 9 thibaut staff   306B Mar 14 09:21 .
drwxr-xr-x 8 thibaut staff   272B Mar 14 09:30 ..

-rw-r--r--@ 1 thibaut staff    11K Jan 3 13:21 preview-web (from Alphonse).jpg
I renamed the files to remove the suffix, like this:
-rw-r--r--@ 1 thibaut staff    11K Jan 3 13:21 preview-web.jpg
drwxr-xr-x@ 9 thibaut staff   306B Mar 14 09:32 .

-rw-r--r--@ 1 thibaut staff   101K Jan 3 13:21 preview.jpg
That fixed the problem and the file now opens correctly in Numbers 3.
You can take the numbers file into a windows machin, the file is shown as a folder and then remive teh suffix.
and like magic the file can then be opend in Numbers V3.1

Premiere CC Can't Open Projects or Create New Ones - Crashes

Hello all,
Launched Premiere CC couple minutes ago (the same machine I use to work with for some months) and all the sudden it crashes every time I try to open a project, or create a new one.
This is the error it shows: http://postimg.org/image/u262vwnu5/
Nothing new was installed in this machine - it's a "editing only machine", an Asus laptop.
Anyway for me to track the crash and send/show anyone a report?
Thanks.

You have to delete your presets under.
C:\Users\YOURNAME\Documents\Adobe\Premiere Pro\8.0\Profile-YOURNAME
Here delete the .prfpset - file. Be sure to copy the file if you want to go back. This is a much discussed issue of premiere in this forum, for further detail just search for the error-message.

Can't open project unless trash prefs or eject ext hd... ???

I want to start off by apologizing ahead of time if I miss a detail or seem like I am rambling but I am going on 48 hours no sleep, half of which trying to figure out my problem, and my doc's air date is quickly quickly approaching. I will try to make this brief yet detailed...
I am working on a two hour documentary and I am having to hop between two machines.. one is at work and the other is at my home..
Home System:
MacBook Pro 10.5.8
2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
FCP 6.0.6
Work System:
2.5 GHz PowerPC Still on Tiger
FCP 6.0.6
(I apologize I don't know more details but I am at my home system right now and weary to drive up there on no sleep..)
I am editing XDCAM footage which I digitized in low res DV and then highres at the end to DVCPRO HD (since my system at work can't handle anything higher)
I have completed that entire process for the first hour of the doc with no issues.. having two copies of the SD version.. one at home and one at work and I would just throw my project file on a thumb drive and relink..
Ok.. so now I am trying to finish hour 2 and I've worked the exact same process as I did for hour 1.. This past Tuesday, it was at the end of the day and I just restarted my machine and tried to open my project and it would get stuck on the loading page... it did pass all the plugins loading... and would stop while it said ...6.0.6. Honestly I didn't think too much of it (panic wise) cause it's always something... lol.. I just did some quick googling... found that I should run permissions and trash my prefs.. Which I did.. and it opened just fine after that.
Rest of the week went fine until yesterday. At work again... it did the exact same thing. Now I am getting a bit concerned since I've never had to trash prefs before and now it's happening twice in one week...? hmmm.. Since works computer is still on Tiger, I can't download Digital Rebellion FCS Maintenance Pack.. (BUT I do have it on my home system..) So.. I went through the above process once again... and it opened just fine again.
brought my project file home last night and it was working just fine until around 2am and I couldn't open the darn project.. 'application not responding' force quit by control clicking on the dock...
Now that I am on my MPB, I decided to run the digital rebellion package (except the trashing of prefs..) Im trying to see if it's something else. I booted in Safe Mode and ran permissions there... restarted..... still can't open. So I ejected the media and it opened.. so now I have two ways to open it but it's the only way??? I even created a new project and copied my assets over to the new project (offline still)... and it still won't open.
I have to highres Monday and I am terrified to see what will happen ...
Others I tried:
-pulled all the plugins out of the plugin folder and it still wouldn't open..
-Ran Disk Warrior on both machines.. nothing major happened there.
Here is part of the report that is generated after the force quit to send to Apple:

First, I think your workflow is more complicated than it needs to be. If the media resides on both systems on drives with the same name and same folder structure, you shouldn't need to relink. FCP should find the media transparently.
If you have a corrupt piece of media, this might work. Try this, with the media drive disconnected, open the project and do a save as. Quit fcp and then reconnect the media drive and launch the project. You should get the reconnect window. Do not reconnect anything at this time. Then, gradually reconnect your media until you find the problem clip.
If the problem is corruption in your sequence, follow the initial steps above, but after cancelling the reconnect on startup, try creating a new sequence with the same settings as your existing sequence and copying the contents of the existing sequence to the new sequence. Then select the new sequence in the browser and control click and choose reconnect media.
Report back and if the problem still exists we can move on.

Can't open project from DB

I am about ready to throw this machine out the window!! I
have installed Robohelp X5 and updated to 5.0.2. I also installed a
VCS patch since RH doesn't like to play nice with PVCS. I can open
projects from local drives just fine, but when I try to open a
project from our database, I get this: "Unknown exception error,
please contact ..." This occurs after I select my location to store
files and click OK. I know my username and password are good
because other users can open projects on their machines using my
login info. I cannot open any projects using anybody else's info
either. This is the second box that I've had this occur, I actually
requested a new one to see if it would work on a different machine
and the exact same thing happens. So, I would greatly appreciate
any help with this!

Thanks for the reply. Let me give you some more details. Oh
and I'm not using PVCS for VC with Robohelp, but I do have it
installed on my machine for other projects.
What I am doing is trying to open the project through
RoboSource Control. Once in RoboHelp HTML I select the Open from
RoboSource option from the Open Project dialog box, and it prompts
me to enter the server and DB name, with my username and password.
After that, it accesses the project and asks me to select a
location to store the files on my local drive. Once I do that and
click OK to proceed, I get the error. What SHOUILD happen is it
should copy the files to the specified location on my local drive
and allow me to then open the project, but I can't get that far.
It's very frustrating, especially since everyone else can do it but
me.

Can't open project on External Harddrive

I'm using iMovie 5.0.2 and working on a project that is saved on an external hard drive.
After 6 hours of editing, the power cord came out of the hard drive. I connected everything and tried to save the project. I then got scared and stopped the saving. Now I can't open the project. I can't save it to another part of the hard drive and open it. Every time I try to open the movie it says :
A project file is missing.
The file "_" couldn't be opened
and is being skipped. Click Ignore All
to skip any remaining missing file messages.
The iMovie quits. If I can find the files- all won't be lost. Plus, I have a high res quicktime file saved of the raw footage. But, I would like NOT to lose that 6 hours of work.
Can I open this file? Did I mess it up? Where are the video clips saved? I can't find them. I have iMovie on my laptop and the project saved on the hard drive.
Thanks for any help. This is why I'm so done with video Just a few more projects to do. After 15 years this type of crap drives me crazy.
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't do anything more with your iMovie. Don't try another save, as that can write over your last good saves. You MAY be able to retrieve the prior save. Hopefully, you saved as you went along during these 6 hours so you can retrieve a very recent saved version.
(These types of accidents have made me realize the importance of backing up my movies-in-progress as I am editing them. I did not do this in the past, and now I try to do it at least at the end of each editing session so that not all would be lost. I had an external drive fail suddenly and all of my movies were gone. Fortunately, I was able to reimport the original footage, but frequent saves would have been best).
In iM6, you can access the project files by control or right-clicking on the star icon and selecting 'show package contents' to let you see the movie files. One or more of the icons will have a tilde ~ or several of them. Those are prior versions of the iMovie, and can be used to get back to a prior save.
In iM5, I think you can just directly open the project files and see the movie files as ~ files with the name as "yourmovie.mov" It might be in a Cache folder and might be called "Timeline Movie.mov." If you don't see anything like a Cache folder, try doing the process for iM6 above. If you see multiple .mov files with ~ and then more ~~ or even ~~~ those are more versions. You may have to try one or more of these to find the latest one possible.
Once you locate the .mov version of your movie, open a new iMovie project and drop in one of the .mov~ movies into it and see if it works. If so, continue editing with this one. This version will be all in one clip, so more editing is a bit more difficult, but not impossible and at least you will have some of your work back.
It's crucial you NOT save the messed-up project right now, for that will destroy the good QuickTime movie, replacing it with a bad "empty" movie.
(Thanks to Karl Peterson for the info re: retrieving prior saved movies).
Good luck!

Can't open Project files... have latest FCP though

Hello, I have the FCP Suite 2 and it's updated. I got a Project file from a client and when I open it, it says something similar to 'can't open the project with this version of Final Cut'.
If i have the latest version of FCP how could this be? Will FCP open a Final Cut Express file?
Sorry i don't know the exact error message at the moment, I'm trying to figure this out before I get back to my office this evening (where the computer and file is) at which point I have to contact the client and tell him what's up.
And feedback would be great, thanks for your time. Will give better details this evening if needed
-Monty

I installed the update... FCP still launches as 6.0.1 . So I tried downloading the 6.0.2 updater (Pro Applications Update 2008-01), and as I enter my serial to access the file it lead me straight to the Pro Applications Update 2008-02 download which i just tried installing.
Any quick ideas would be great, I've put the client on hold til tomorrow. I did do a search here and though it wasn't clear, it seemed like someone was recommending a complete system re-install. I hope that's not the situation, thanks for your time!
-Monty
PS-If it has to be a new install of everything, exactly what do i need to make FCP update to 6.0.3? Just update FCP through the Software Updater then install the Pro Applications Update 2008-02? Or are there other update I need to get manually, thanks.
