Cannot open imovie libraries created "with a newer version" (false!)
First of all, excuse me for my bad english!
I've an iMac 21.5'', fall '09 series. I'm not an expert user (I use Windows at work) and I use the Mac just for fun, when I have time.
A couple of months ago, I've updated to Maveriks. Then I try to update my iLife '11, too, but the Apple Store didn't show me the "update" option. Following some italian blogs tips, I change the language preferences and that let me able to update iLife. iMovie updated my video libraries and everythings works fine.
Yesterday, after a long period, I switched my iMac on, and check for software updates. Then I updated iPhoto and iMovie. Again, iMovie updated my libraries, and everythings works fine.
Then I choose "update all", the system prompted me asking my AppleID and pwd, the default language switched to italian, and all updates takes places.
On restart, "software updates" re-show me again iPhoto and iMovie, and other updates. I choose "update all", and the system reinstall iMovie among the others.
When I open iMovie, it prompted me with a "choose a library" messages, but whatever library I choose, it alert me with a messages that claim something like "cannot open this library, because it was created with a newer version of iMovie".
The problem is that "the newer version" is the "same" version (10.0.2) - exept for the different languages preference settings, and I dont' wanna wait until the next iMovie version to update my libraries
Can anyone help me to resolve this issue?
...It was so bad my English?

I uninstalled and deleted ver 11, installed ver 10.7 because ver11 won't work on my XPsp3 machine with my vinyl conversion software to mp3, but upon launch i get :"itunes library.itl cannot be read because it was created with a newer version of itunes'.
Hello, Stephen.
Thank you for the question. You will need to rebuild your iTunes library file in order to open an older version of iTunes. Below, I have included the article that walks you through this process. Start with the section labeled Re-creating the iTunes Library file.

My computer is reading "The file 'iTunes Library.itl' cannot be read because it was created with a newer version of iTunes." I need help ASAP! Did I lose all my music?
Unless you deliberately downgraded iTunes this may be a sign of a corrupt library. SeeEmpty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash.

I downloaded and installed the trial version of Adobe After Effects 6.0 last night and worked on a project for quite some time. This morning, when I tried to open the project, it gave me: After Effects Error: this file was created with a newer version of After Effects [3.0 (unknown)] -- time to upgrade your application.
The message is annoying. This means that if anyone send me an After Effects File from future versions, I cannot load them. Even Microsoft has converters for backwards compatibility
It is costing me time to evaluate the product, and lowering my opinion of it since it obviously has bugsAh, I see. So you are using 6.0, not CS6? Yes, in that case things are just as they are - AE is not forward compatible. Only CS5.5 and CS6 allow to save one version back (that is CS5 and CS5.5, respectively), but beyond that AE never offered this feature. anyway, AE 6.0 is hopelessly outdated. It doesn't even work on contemporary operating systems nor does it work properly with current versions of Quicktime and just the same it doesn't support any modern media formats, so that's like trying to fly to the moon with a WW I. airplane... and to make matters worse - AE 6.0 was one of the most bug-ridden versions of the program in the first place.

I previously made an iMovie project, but with the new version of iMovie (10.0.1) I cannot import the project. How do I retrieve and import my old iMovie project?
You have to upgrade your iMovie 9 projects from iMovie 10 before you can use them. See:

Pages 5.5.1: When opening a document created with Pages '09 (Version 4.0) with Pages 5.5.1 the page header and the page footer are deleted. How can this be prevented? Or is this a bug in Pages 5.5.1?
Same problem here (no graphics in header or footer) and the problem has been reported months ago. It is another bug/feature lost when Apple moves from 09 to the iCloud-compatible versions. Complain to Apple, you may have better chance than me and they may finally listen to their users....

I have a MacBook Pro version 10.7.5 Every time I try to open iphoto I get the warning: "To open your library with this version of iPhoto, it first needs to be prepared. You have opened this photo library with a newer version of iPhoto." How do I do this? I recently bought aperature, and it has been since then that I get this warning.
Thank you!No I have not tried those things. I don't even know what that means I suppose I have the newest version of aperature; I just bought it 4 days ago.

My Itunes library will not open becuase of being created with a newer version
I did create the library with a newer version of itunes, i did this so that i could drag songs from a folder i had on this computer earlier. Now it will not open. I need help quick cause i would love to be able to drag these songs over s they will be on my iphone. HELP!
Let me get this right...
You have an iTunes library which you are now trying to use with a version prior to one that you were using, correct? Why?
Why don't you use the most up-to-date version of iTunes?
If you try using version 10.0 (for example), then anything iTunes has sorted out using 10.5 will not be recognised by 10.0, which is why you get the message. Apple's advice is to always use the most up-to-date version of iTunes. -
i am running vista home premium on desktop and vista basic on laptop. have placed my itunes music with .itl and .xml files onto external drive connected to another desktop running vista and can no longer access music on first two mentioned comps only on the one connected to external drive. always am told that the library cant be read because it was created using a newer version of itunes. have tried to download 10.3 but it always tells me that i have and invalid hard drive j and to try again. any ideas?
Older versions of iTunes cannot read libraries created with newer versions of iTunes. You need to have the same version of iTunes on all your PCs. Is that the case?
As far as the problem installing iTunes goes, see this article from b noir on dealing with the problem:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2450004
If you get to the point where you need the Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, you will need more help as it has been withdrawn by Microsoft. but I am hoping the virtual drive trick will work, -
This file was created with a newer version of Adobe After Effects
I downloaded the trial version of Adobe After Effects last night and spent a lot of time learning how to use the product, created my first tracking face on a body in a video.
This morning when I tried to open the project I got an error message: After Effects Error: this file was created using a newer version of After Effects [3.0 (unknown)] -- time to upgrade your application!
What should I do?Sounds odd. If you created it in CS6 it should open just fine in that same version. chances are that the project fiel is simply damaged. Impossible to tell without actualyl seeing the file.
