How "old" of a file can Logic 8 open?

ok, this is going to sound funny but... I've got this friend (seriously) that just got Logic Studio. They are trying to open a Logic file that we did together back on ver. 4.7 and I'm being told that Logic won't open the file. They're getting an error message saying something about opening a 7.3 file instead (sorry I couldn't get the full error message from them).
Does anyone know of a "cut off" in regards to how far back L8 can go when opening older Logic songs?
Thanks much!

Thanks for the info. I tried to open an older file as well to see if I had the same problem my freind was... So it would seem that Logic 5 is the cut off. Logic Pro 8 cannot open files created any earlier than that! I just tried to open a backup file from 2002 and I get a message saying that "this format is not compatablewith this Logic Pro version. Please load first into Logic Pro version 7.2.1 or earlier to convert this project". That only be mildly annoying if I.. oh, had a verion of 7.2.1 available. Do I need to uninstall 8, try to find a version of 7.2.1, go through all my old files, ere save them, uninstall, reinstall... I believe the word is.. OYE!!!!
Now THAT... is not good news. I've got tons of archival files from around that era and never deramed I'd not be able to open them a mere 5 years later. I'm sure there's a work around for this and obviously, my fiend and I aren't the only ones that are going to run into this.
Thanks again for the feedback and help!

  • How did my pdf files get converted from 'open with Adobe Reader' to open with Adobe Acobat'?  And if I have a ''free'' Acrobat account why does it not open?  When I do click on the account it ask me to pay $89.99.  I never wanted Acrobat.  How can I get -

    How did my stored files get converted from 'open with Adobe READER' to 'open with Adobe ACROBAT'? How can I get them re-set to open with 'Adobe Reader'?

    It sounds as if you downloaded Adobe Acrobat Pro. If you did, uninstall it. Then repair Adobe Reader.
    The free Acrobat account has no connection to any of this.

  • How big of a file can I receive?

    Not sure if there is an error or if the file is too big.  My other email provider will allow an email with several pictures attached to be received.  When I forwarded it - it failed.  Then when the sender sent it to my verizon account it failed as well.  We just got our FIOS connnected. SO, is there a limit as to how big of a file can be received by Verizon FIOS?

    i am pretty sure that if you are doing it through verizon.net emai webmail that it is 8 mb,  and if you do it through an email client like windows mail/outlook/entourage that you can do upto 20mb.
    These are the limits for *sending* attachments from Verizon. The only limit on receiving is whether it would put you over your storage quota for your verizon.net mailbox. (Limit is 2 gigs for primary accounts and 250 megs for subs, includes mail in ALL folders.)
    You said sending it failed. What error did you get? Was it an immediate error or a bounceback message?

  • Does Adobe Send allow you to select how many days your files can be downloaded - as with Adobe Send Now? Also, why don't I see the virus scanning message any longer with "Send" versus "Send Now"?

    Does Adobe Send allow you to select how many days your files can be downloaded - as with Adobe Send Now? Also, why don't I see the virus scanning message any longer with "Send" versus "Send Now"?

    We relied upon the "days available for download" to get people to take
    action more quickly. The "virus scanning" progress bar was simply another
    way of knowing this activity was actually taking place - unless this is
    written somewhere in the Adobe Send User Guide.....wherever that is.

  • Problem related to PS CS6 ext. on Mac.  Nikon DSLR D610 raw file can not be opened

    Problem related to PS CS6 ext. on Mac. Installation is OK but I can't open picture from my Nikon D610 (Raw NEF format). I get a message "can not open this format ...". Checking Help menu to see if I miss an update the message I get is that I'm up-to-date but at the end Nikon D610 (format supported of course) files can not be opened . JPEG are OK but I work with raw files. Thanks

    What OS are you running: 10.x.x?
    What version of the Camera Raw plug-in do you have?  Do (About) Plug-ins / Camera Raw to find out.
    You need at least ACR 8.3 to open D610 files.  If the Help / Updates process does not work, then there is a manual install process you can do.  The page with the download is for when people accidentally updated to ACR 8.4 and need to roll back to ACR 8.3 due to their OS being incompatible, but the installer on that page works even if you haven’t erroneously updated to ACR 8.4:

  • Photoshop installation " Windows security, these files can't be opened" ?

    Every time I try to download Photoshop a message appears saying " Windows Security, these files can't be opened, you internet security settings preventing one or more files from being opened" I've tried everything from disabling specific security settings to allowing the download to pass through the internet security fire wall. Any help would be appreciated.

  • This file can't be opened.

    I have got a file I have worked on for ages that was on iCLoud and it for corrupted and started saying "This file can't be opened."
    So I went back to an earlier version and did the work again saving it on my mac.
    Now it is saying again:
    "This file can't be opened."
    1) Is there any way of salvaging this file?
    2) Given the way apple have made it harder to save incrementally as you work what is making my files corrupted?
    3) The file was a multi sheet spreadsheet. Am I being unrealistic thinking Numbers can handle this?

    I suggest backing up the file using Time Machine.
    You can also use the menu item "File > Revert To " to see all versions

  • This file can't be opened because it has been deleted

    When I tried to save an Appleworks 6 document by clicking SAVE (drop down menu) and then inputting a file name and then clicking SAVE I get the following message.
    "This file can't be opened because it has been deleted."
    This problem started yesterday. I also had this problem this morning - but -
    I have just tried to replicate the problem and I can't
    However, has anybody had this problem before? If you did you solve it, or did it just not happen again?

    Although I've only gotten this message when I've had AppleWorks 6 open in both Classic & OS X at the same time, others get it like you with no specific cause. It usually is fixed by using Disk Utility to repair permissions and deleting the AppleWorks 6 preferences. See my user tip, AppleWorks has stopped working correctly, for more on the preferences.

  • Cannot change date and time settings, popup "These files can't be opened: Your internet security settings prevented..."

    When I try to change my date and time settings I get a Windows Security popup that reads: "These files can't be opened.  Your Internet security settings prevented one or more files from being opened. C:\Windows\system32\rundll32.exe"
    I have Windows 7 64 bit.  I also have McAfee SecurityCenter installed.  I have tried turning off my firewall temporarily, but the problem persists.  I am not sure if it is some type of virus.  If anyone could give me some information
    as to what could be causing this I would appreciate it.  Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Perhaps, this issue is caused by a sign of corruption.
    Please try to use sfc/scannow to check the System Files.

  • How old of an iPod can I use with cloud, new os, and sync?

    I have PC (HP Mini netbook with Widows 7 Starter and latest iTunes update)  but I have an old iPod 2 and can't afford a new one.  Will I be able to use cloud (I think not) and can I download the new iTunes software to my Touch 2 so that I can sync the music I purchased and downloaded yesterday.  I am a new user of iTunes.  Thanks for any help.
    If I can sync, I need to know if I do that by using iPod Touch 2 and going to iTunes, or if I connect the iPod to my netbook via USB cord.

    If I understood you and the FAQ articles you so kindly linked to for me, I should be able to download to iPod from iTunes Store, any music I have previously purchased using my netbook.  I have not been able to do so yet.  First, I had paid using Paypal and was told when using the iPod that Paypal was not allowed for the iPod.  So I went back from the netbook and registered a card instead.  Now when I use the Ipod and connect to the iTunes Store via DSL, the purchased button only allows me to see the album that I purchased using iPod and that card but not the 15 songs I purchased more recently using the netbook and my Paypal account.  Is there a fix for this or is it impossible because of the changes in payment methods?
    Thank you so much, your info and links have been very helpful.  If I can't download from the store, I will study up and see if I can learn how to use the USB cord to connect the iPod to the netbook and transfer using iTune software.

  • How big a .pdf file can be?

    I produce a pdf-binder with 1500 several pdf-pages made of scanned paper clippings.
    this binder contains an index to browse the several pages and must be produced on CD.
    the filesize is more than 500 MB, so the performance of this CDs is not so well.
    now my questions:
    how big a acrobat pdf-file can be?
    how many pages can a .pdf document include?
    any tips to boost the reading performance on the CD?

    First, you have to investigate what's the max size your and your recipient's mail providers permit. In many cases, that is the main limiting factor. Next, you need to configure the mail program you use to avoid auto-zip'ing the attachments.

  • How big a Quicktime file can I download into iWeb

    When I create a video in iMovie how big a file can I make it (web-streaming, cd) so it can be published in iWeb and viewed?

    Regardless of how you embed the file in your iWeb page have you tried reducing the file size. One mtehod is to open it in QT Player 7 and use the File ➙ Export for Web and use the Desktop setting:
    Click to view full size
    That can reduce the file size considerable and keep good image quality.

  • I am trying to download i tunes onto my pc but get an error saying that some old i tune files can not be deleted before reinstalling.

    I am trying to download i tunes onto my pc (Windows XP) but get an error saying that some existing files can not be deleted to be re installed.  I have tried several time but to no avail.

    Many thanks, that's perfect.
    The older version of apple software update cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group.
    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) downloaded from the Apple Website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Does it go through properly this time?
