Can't Open Project in iDVD 7 from previous iDVD 6

I have an archived project from the iDVD 6 that I have copied to my new CPU. From iDVD's main selection window, if I choose open an existing project, and select the project, it never opens. Instead I am returned to the selection window.
As an experiment, I have copied over my iPhoto library and and placed a folder with some images the original project referenced at the same location of this machine. It didn't help.
The file I am tring to open is called "50 Years Archived.dvdproj" and was created with iDVD 6.
I am using iDVD 7. When I installed this version of iLife, I chose not to install iWeb and Garage Band since I am planning not use them. I had installed them on my old system.
I did not do a migration to get content from my old MBP to this new MBP. I drag-and-dropped the iDVD project file. I checked the permissions and they are set to "read/write" on the project file for my user, admin and others.

I have an archived project from the iDVD 6 that I have copied to my new CPU.
People often use the term 'archived project' rather loosely. It IS possible to create an actual archived project out of iDVD - it's an option under FILE. Is THIS what you did? ... or are you simply referring to the iDVD 6 project file?
An actual 'archived project' file contains all the pieces that went into the project and is self-contained and usually large. I would expect this file to work.
On the other hand, if what you have is simply the old iDVD 6 project file - that contains links to parts of the project - I can see you might have a problem.
What do you have? An archived project or just a saved project file?

  • How can you retrieve information from a iCloud backup on a previous iPhone? Backup from old phone is taking up a lot of space, would like to save pics to computer before deleting. How can I open up the backup from previous phone that is now on the iCloud?

    I originally had an iPhone 4 but switched service carriers back in June.  When I bought the new iPhone 4s, all my information from the iPhone 4 was saved as a backup on the iCloud.  On my new phone in the iCloud settings, Storage & Backup, it shows the backup from the iPhone 4.  This backup is taking up a lot of space on my phone and I would like to delete to avoid having to purchase more space.  However, I know I have pictures on this backup from the iPhone 4 that I would like to view and save on my computer if at all possible before deleting.  Is it possible to view the photos from this backup? If so, how? Thank you in advance for any assistance.  I hope this makes sense, lol, I'm not very computer literate.

    Unfortunately with the issues I mentioned above I don't even think I have enough space for that on the computer!  I have literally moved all moy pictures, music, etc. to another drive and all that's left are some small docs and applications.  I don't know how to find any more space on the thing and can't get things updated until I fix this...

  • Can't open folders I moved from previous computer.

    I just upgraded my Mac Pro's 320GB HD with a 1TB. I moved over my Documents and Music folder and saved them on an extra HD. After I reformatted the computer, I tried to open those folders from the extra HD and they will not open. They have a circle with a white line in the middle. When I choose "Get info", the info tells me that I have no access to this folder. Is there any way to change this?

    yes, in the info panel, unlock the lock at the bottom and change permissions to give yourself access to those folders.

  • 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,

  • Can't open Project 2010 file in Project 2007

    I am trying to open a Project 2010 file in Project 2007, I get an error that asks if I would like to download the converter and I say yes and get a generic product page for Project 2010. I can't locate the file that I need, how do I find it?

    Addressed here:
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/project-help/opening-project-mpp-files-from-different-versions-HA001045020.aspx
    You have reached this page because the Project MPP file that you are trying to open was created in a later version of Microsoft Project. Check below to determine if a converter for opening later files is available to you.
    Which Project version are you using?
    Which file version are you trying to open?
    Notes
    Project 2007
    Project 2010
    No converter is available. If you received a Project 2010 file that you want to open using Project 2007, ask the person who sent the file to first save it to the Project 2007 file format.
    Alternately, you can install the free
    trial version of Project 2010, and then view the file, or save it to the Project 2007 file.
    Note Once the trial version of Project 2010 has expired, it can continue to open and view project files, but it won’t be able to save them.
    Project 2003
    Project 2007
    There are two possibilities here.
    If you are using Project 2003 with SP3, project files from Project 2007 can be opened read-only.
    Download Microsoft Office Project 2003 Service Pack 3.
    If you are using Project 2003 without SP3, there is no converter available. Upgrade to Project 2003 with SP3, or ask the person who sent the Project 2007 or later file to save the file first in the Project 2000-2003 file format.
    Project 2003
    Project 2010
    No converter is available. Ask the person who sent the Project 2010 file to save the file first in the Project 2000-2003 file format.
    Project 2000 or Project 2002
    Project 2007 or Project 2010
    No converter is available. Ask the person who sent the Project 2007 or later file to save the file first in the Project 2000-2003 file format.
    Project 98
    Project 2000 and later versions
    No converter is available. Consider upgrading to the latest version of Project, or install the free
    trial version of Project 2010 to try out Project’s enhanced functionality.
    Alternately, ask the person who sent the Project 2000-2003 file to save the file first in the Project 98 file format.
    Note Project 2007 and later versions of Project do not have the ability to save to the Project 98 file format.”

    I made a bootable disc on an external hard drive, with Yosemite on it.  I am running Snow Leopard on my iMac.  How can I open the Yosemite disc from the desktop on my iMac?  Does the external hard drive need to be connected to my iMac by firewire to do that?

    Snow Leopard's Startup Disk pref can’t see Yosemite volumes. So the only way to switch from Snow Leopard to Yosemite is to do what Niel mentioned. Doesn't matter whether it's connected by USB or Firewire, although performance via FW would be faster.
    Are you saying that Yos/10.10, as a volume located in a mounted external drive won't appear as an option in Snow Leopard's Startup Disc, in Sys Prefs? I've never heard this one before. AFAIK any mounted volume, regardless of OS, should appear there. I would think that, if it appears in the Boot Picker/Startup Manager it would also appear and could be booted to from Snow's Startup Disk. I can't test this myself, since I don't have Yos. Is what you are saying documented somewhere?

  • Can't open web pdf files from my Reader DC because my IMac wants a completed license agreement to use Reader and I never saw that page during installation.

    Can't open web pdf files from my newly installed Reader DC because my IMac wants a completed license to use agreement to Reader, and I never saw that page during installation.  How do I get past this?

    You need to accept the EULA on first launch of the Reader DC application.
    Go to the Applications folder and launch Adobe Acrobat Reader DC. 
    This will bring up the EULA.
    Select the "Agree" button if you agree with the terms
    Assuming you selected the "Agree" button, Reader DC should open.
    You should now be able to open PDF files in your web browser.

    I guess you are trying to connect from the R3/ECC to the Portal Server.
    Are these two systems in the same network? Do you have usernames (valid and fully authorized) in both systems? What is the OS on which these two systems are housed?
    Please provide these details to proceed further.

  • I can't open the RAW files from my new Nikon D4s camera in photoshop? How do I download the latest software for RAW files?

    I can't open the RAW files from my new Nikon D4s camera in photoshop? How do I download the latest software for RAW files? Cheers!

    What version of Photoshop are you running?  You will need at CS5, CS6, CC or CC2014.  Each version needs a different ACR-plug-in to open files from that camera.
    If you are on CS4 or earlier, you'll need to upgrade—or, in the alternative; look for, download, instal, launch and run the free, stand-alone DNG Converter 8.6 on each file of raw NEF files to convert them to raw DNGs first so you can open them in your version of Photoshop and ACR plug-in higher than 2.4.

  • I have Lightroom 3.6 and Camera Raw 6.6 but I can't open my CR2 files from my Canon eos 6D

    Hi,
    I have Lightroom 3.6 and Camera Raw 6.6 but I can't open my CR2 files from my Canon eos 6D
    Lightroom doesn't show a thumbnail image and when trying to import it says the camera format isn't supported. But normaly Camera raw 6.6 should cover the Canon eos 6D
    All help is welcome,
    Thanks

    No, the older versions are not free.  If you upgrade you will have to get Lr5 unless you can still find Lr4 for sale somewhere as it has been discontinued by Adobe.  You can also use the FREE DNG converter to convert the 6d files for use in Lr3.6.

  • Opening projects in CS4 from earlier versions of Premiere

    I have various projects in Premiere 2.0. They work fine.
    I tried opening one in Premiere CS4. It mostly works, but I found a small hickup where a transition (cross disolve) is quite messed up. Otherwise, it seems the project is playing the same in CS4.
    My question is: how accurate is it to open projects in CS4 from an earlier version? I don't really want to have to go through every second of every project to make sure it works properly, yet I would like to upgrade to CS4.
    What's the normal protocol for this? I'm sure people deal with having to open projects from earlier version of Premiere all the time.

    Harm,
    Thanks for your answer -- it's helpful. I will follow your advice.
    What blows my mind is what the legions of editors out there do when they have to old up an old project? This must happen all the time!
    Do editors have to maintain two machines -- one with the old version of Premiere to open up their old project, and another machine to work on new projects? Oh, I guess they need one machine for each version they've ever created a Premiere project in. That's like 5 machines.
    Seriously, what to people do when they have to open up an old project for whatever reason? It's seems like if you open it up in the latest version of Premiere, you would have to go through every second of the project very carefully to make sure there are errors introduced -- way time consuming.
