R14 Can't open or import my R12 project.

PostSat Aug 12, 2017 6:59 pm

I've just finished a project so thought it was a good time to upgrade from 12.5 to 14b6. I backed up my R12 database and did the upgrade. Now my project won't open, it crashes. I tried importing a saved drp and that won't open either.

14 seems to work on a fresh project but I expect I'll need to open this project at some point. What are my options?

Can you PM a link to the offending project so we can take a look.

Thanks, that would be great - I'll try to upload it somewhere later today. I'll upload the drp without stills as the one I saved with stills is quite a big file.

Hey, did you guys find a solution to this that might work for me too?
I'm having the same problem - all my other projects worked fine moving up to R14, but this one crashes R14 if I try to open from the updated database (always at 47-49%). If I try to import it as a single project it crashes during the import.

I sent Peter a log (or the project, I forget now) and the next release of 14 beta cured my problem - I was very impressed with that! So I can't help you I'm afraid, I've had no other problems with 14 since.

Thanks, I'll have to go to support.
Glad yours get sorted out!
