Import vault from older version

I have a vault created on an old Mac Book (this has died and is not accessible to me) that I need to restore onto a different computer with Aperture 3.0 on it.
i have tried to restore the vault but get an error that the vault was created with and older version and to import the vault instead. I click import and get the very (un)helpful error message that Aperture was unable to find the necessary information to import the vault.... and nothing.. that's it, no further clue.
How can I import this vault?
Regards
Chris

Kirby, Thanks - I can't upgrade to 3.3.1 because according to the download page http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1553 that version required OS X 10.7.4 or later. I have OS X 10.6.8 and my version of Aperture is 3.1.2 which I think is as up to date as I can get on that version of OSX. The last time I checked for software updates nothing was download for Aperture as I recall, a couple of months ago.
I can't update that computer (a Mac Mini) again at the moment because it doesn't have internet access. It is installed on a boat, in a marina in deepest darkest Uruguay. I can only get internet access by lugging a laptop (windows) somewhere. I certainly can't upgrade to OS X Lion.
Anyway I tried to follow your instructions with what I have and these are the dialogues that I received.
I created the new library
Then did File - Vault - Restore Library ( note that Restore vault is not an option)
I choose to restore the library
I then get the error message
"Photos 1 backup" was created by an older version of Aperture, and can not be restored by this version.
To import the contents of the vault,select the import button
I click import, and receive this error message
Library import error
The library connot be imported because some the data required for import could not be found
The file is on a hard drive which according to the info is "Mac OS extended (journaled)"
Hmmmm just noticed that if I get the info for the vault file it shows as only 4k... is that just showing the folder size or is the vault empty?

Problem with imported pdfs from older version

I'm working in CS4. The InDesign document I'm working on was originally done in an older version of InDesign (not sure which). It contains imported pdfs that were created in CS2 and CS3. When I export to pdf the older imported pdfs don't display properly on my client's PC - the type is not there, only boxes with question marks - but the pdf looks fine on my screen. I upgraded from CS2 to CS4. The only way I've gotten around this is to export the CS4 InDesign document as an .INX file, have a friend open it up in CS3 and save down to an .INX file again, open the doc up in CS2, create the pdf from CS2, and open it in the older version of Acrobat. Then my client sees the type clearly on their PC
I'm using Suitcase (thought it was a font issue, but I don't think so now as the fix seemed to be between the CS versions.
Anyone else have this problem and/or a better solution? I'd like to be able to simply export a pdf and be done with it.
Thanks!

Thats it thank you!
There was a text wrap applied to all the graphics. its working perfectly now!!
Thank you again!!!

Import project from older version of GB

Hey all , just wondering if I can import a song I was working on in GB 11 into GB 10 so I finish there.
Any help would be great.
Thanks, Jim.

Jim,
GarageBand 10 can open GarageBand '11 songs. But it will convert the project to a new format and save a new copy, and you will not be able to open the new version in GB '11.
To open your GarageBand '11 song on GarageBand 10.0, launch GB 10.0 and use the "File > Open" menu. or ctrl-click the project and select "Open with GarageBAnd 10.0" from the contextual menu.

Can't import project from older version

I can't import project into a newer version of final cut as the project is whited out.and when i do get around it the error says:
The document "CurrentVersion.fcpevent" could not be opened Final cut pro cannot open files in the "final cut pro event" format.
I'm working in 10.0 and trying to open on another computer in 10.1.4
Any ideas would be great.
thanks

10.0 and 10.1.4 are very different, but in neither of the the procedure included "opening" such files.
In 10.0, you simply let the content be in the designated locations and the program would find it.
In 10.1 and beyond, projects and events reside in libraries, which are now like regular FCP X "documents" thare are opened and closed in the common way documents usually are.
To use older material, you need to update it. This is done by letting the stuff in its original locations, starting FCP X and doing File->Update Projects and Events... This creates a new library with your old material.

Will Lightroom and Photoshop CC work with Indesign/Illustrator/etc from older versions of CS installed on my Mac?

if I subscribe to the Photo plan, will Lightroom and Photoshop CC output work with Indesign/Illustrator/etc from older versions of CS installed on my Mac?

I currently have premiere cs4 and cs5 installed and have had no problems. I have noted on the forums here that some people were reporting problems. So the only way to realy know is make the plunge. I'm running win 7 pro.

Import templates from older iPages

I would like to import my old templates from an older version of iPages (06) now that I have just installed 08. I can't find anything in the documentation that indicates how to achieve this. Is there a quick way of doing this?

Ian,
Any template you created yourself will automatically show up in the template browser when you open Pages '08. You won't need to move anything.

Since upgrading to Firefox 6, I can't use my autofill forms. It now has my name and address but doesn't have credit card or password information that it had before and I don't know how to input it or import it from former versions of Firefox.

I just upgraded to Firefox 5. Before when I filled in a form, I just had to click autofill and all my information was provided. I found autofill on customize toolbars and added it, but it only had my name and address, not my credit cards or passwords. Before I could click on them and change them if I needed to. I would like to input them on this version or import them from the last one so I can easily fill forms online, but I can't see how to do it.

Transferring ICal date from older version IMac to newer

My Imac G5 desk top died a few months back and I have replaced with model below. I just transferred old hard drive to new computer and am trying to open old ICal. I keep getting the message that this version can't be opened on this version of IMac. I have to access this calendar as a few documents that were on my old desk top didn't transfer open for some reason and I can recreate using the old calendar.. Any ideas as to how I can open the older version? I tried to create a new group in the new version and import the information that way but that didn't work either. Thanks.. (can I download on a thumb drive and print out perhaps?)

You need to locate the calendars folder that was on the drive of the old computer.
It would be located in: Name of your old Hard drive > Users > Name of your user > Library > Calendars or Name of your old Hard drive > Users > Name of your user > Library > Application Support > iCal
Once you locate this folder you put it in your current computer in the same location as above. When you open up the current version of iCal which was on your computer when you purchased it (iCal 4.x) it will see those calendars and read them for you.

Export and import a whole older version datebase to a new one

Hi, everyone,
There is a requirement to export one Oracle database(8.0.5) and import into one database instance(Oracle 8.1.7 over WinNT). Are there any detailed procedure or check to follow for this operation? or any document and URL helpful can guide this operation.
Or anything should be carefully for different version and different OS?
Thanks in advance,
Hawk

You need to run your export with the older version software. In other words, use the 8.1.7 version export program if you want into import to 8.1.7. This 8.1.7 export file will also be compatible with the 8.0.5 import program, but not the other way around.
There's a compatibility matrix on Metalink. If you have a Metalink account, logon and do a search on "import export compatibility matrix".

Jdbc thin driver 8.1.7 and views from older versions of oracle

Config:
Windows 2000 | jdk 1.3.1 | oracle's latest jdbc driver 8.1.7,
also tried 9.0.1 (classes12.zip), using thin driver
I try to select,using a PreparedStatment, from a view on Oracle
8.1.7, the view is linked to a table on Oracle 7.2.2.3.
I get different results when running the same query, I use an
older version of the driver to connect to the older version of
Oracle(classes111.zip), on the table directly and on the view.
This seems to be predominantly present when dealing with
integers.
Any comments or help would be appreciated.

I have found a workaround to this problem.
The only way, that I have been able to determine, of resolving
this issue is to use a Statement, not a PreparedStatement, which
causes problems for some reason. I figure there's a bug in
Oracle's JDBC layer.
Maybe this will help someone...maybe not :)

Running LR3.3 - can I delete catalog previews from older versions?

I've got three folders on my HD with names like Lightroom 2 catalog previews.lrdata, Lightroom 3 Catalog Previews -2.lrdata and Lightroom 3 Catalog Previews -3.lrdata ... are all three necessary or can I delete the first two (I'm assuming that Lightroom 3 Catalog Previews -2.lrdata is from the version previous to 3.3)? Just trying to determine what's actually necessary to back up since my external drive's running out of space

You can delete any of the previews folders you like with the understanding that LR will rebuild previews, again, for folders you visit in LR, which is less likely for older versions.
You might also check your back folders and thin out (delete in Explorer/Finder) the older periodic backups to one each month or quarter or year instead of one each week the older they are.

Initial setup probs - importing data from older imac or time machine backup

i just bought a new imac and in the initial install, trying to import the data from older imac. i've tried both firewire and ethernet direct to the older imac (it says it has identified it) and to an external hard drive containing my time machine backups, but the new imac sticks on the "transfer your information" screen calculating both the data and time remaining.
it has been nearly an hour. am i not giving it long enough? any other advice?
