is there anyway of opening old files from previous edition of autocad on the newer version, have a file from a few years ago and it wont open now on the new one?
on newer drawings ( amonth or two old) my crosshairs disappear in paper space (model space is fine)....but on older drawings (some are years old) the crosshairs works fine. neither the older or newer drawings were started by me so i can;t be sure of how they were set up, but (i think) it must have something to do with the way these newer dwgs were set up.
i was using C3D 2011 when the issu started and upgraded to C3D 2013 and i still have the issue. I've loaded the latest service pack but no change.

I have a program which had compiled for acad 2010 and windows XP x86. I want to rebuild for acad 2014 and win7-8 x64. I did import 2014's dll (AcMgd.dll, AcDbMgd.dll, AcCui.dll, AcCoreMgd.dll) and built. There is no errors. But when I wantted to run one of my commands it gives an error. I attached the error message.
What I have is a nice production drawing, that has NEVER even been opened in C3D2013. I JUST finished adding labels for some new pipes and structures that are in an Xref. I saved the drawing and closed it to work on a different project while plotting. In SSM, I select the sheets to Publish, the first 4 plot without issue, then I get a CER without a Fatal Error...I can still work on the nbow current drawing...it appears that SSM crashed while loading the aforementioned sheet I had been working on.I close everything down, restart C3D2012, open the same drawing I had just labeled, says it needs to be recovered, so I let it finish loading (I've found that stopping the load will almost always cause C3D to hang indefinitely), close that drawing, then run recover, finds 2 errors, allow to fix, am greeted with the message box "This drawing has been saved by a newer version of C3D. All C3D commands are disabled in this drawing."
Wait a dang minute, SSM crashes and somehow (the save time is still the same as when i manually saved it in 2012) saves it as a C3D2013 file...even though it is still opening as a 2010dwg format file? Opening the file in Notepad even shows it was last saved in 2012.
Running inventor 2010, Installed 2012 to get myself acquainted with the program before totally making the switch, In an assembly everytime I constrain something, or move it it gives me this error. Also I cannot bring this assembly into a drawing because of unresolved issues, yet i have fixed all resolved issues. I would like to get the ribbon platform down before I uninstall inventor 2010...any possibilities
Whenever anyone at the company tries to open a model that has a decal part in it, the File Edit window comes up asking if the person wants to check out the part. As decals generally never change after they are created, they are never desired to be checked out. After saying no to check out, the window then reappears stating that the local is never than the vault, even though you just finished a Get operation. Is there anyway to keep these files from needed constant updating?
We are on ACA 2011 and created a ceiling plan. Sent it to a consultant that is on ACA 2013.The file was saved down, but when we try to make a new ceiling or copy an existing grid, we get the following:
Command: _AecCeilingGridAdd.
Command not allowed because drawing contains objects from a newer version of this application.
My AutoCAD 2013 crashed and as a result the recovered file was saved in 2013 format, instead of my automatic save profile option version set to AutoCAD 2000.
As we have other users in the office without AutoCAD 2013, how do i change the default crash save to a newer version (ie. AutoCAD 2000)?
When upgrading to a newer version of PS (ps7 -> pscs), would i need to transfer all my saved files (projects, brushes, styles, actions, etc...) manually (drag and drop method), or would the installation/setup process do everything for me?
I'm afraid that if i do decide to upgrade to CS and need to transfer all my files, i might unknowingly miss an essential folder and lose it forever when uninstalling the older version.
(or does the setup/installation take care of getting rid of the older version, too?)
I have Creative Cloud Illustrator CS6 Version 16.2.0. I keep gettin a message saying The file can't be opened because it was generated in a newer Version of Illustrator. How can it be a newer version?
A client has sent me files created in a version newer than CS5. When I import them and the PDF objects are re-interpreted I get an error message that, during "An unknown imaging construct was encountered." The resulting images have gradients that are extremely bandedb - though I do not know if this is atributable to the error.
The client insists that he is a highly-experienced Illustrator guru, his files are perfect and he will not change them in any way. He has also delcared that it is quite impossible (for him) to convert his artwork to TIFF files. I am able to do this with the files he has provided quite easily, and do not understand what his issue(s) might be.
Assuming that I am the weak link in the chain, what can I do to improve the quality of his images with the software - CS5 - I have?
I am currently using autocad 2002. An engineering firm has sent me a dwg file that was created using a much newer version of autocad. I asked them to save it back to version 2000, so I can open it. Well, I can open the file, but I'm getting this command "ARXERROR: eNotThatKindOfClass.. whenever I do a basic command??
Now I have gotten dwg files from other firms, and they have worked flawlessly. Would it be how this particular firm has saved the file?
I have tried to open a new drawing, and xref this drawing into it, but all the linework does not show up?
Everytime I open up a file in Photoshop, it says, 'Linotype Fontexplorer version fc4 or newer cannot be found'. I recently deleted that program, how can I get Photoshop to stop looking for it?
I have drawings (some with more than one sheet) from inventor 10. Now I like to open it in inventor 2013. The first sheet is showing, but I can't open the other sheets. I can print them, but I can see a listing of it or go to the sheet.
FYI, until December 2012 I worked in Inventor 10, now I have inventor 2013, so everything is new to me.
I use a machine called a shopbot to cut wood projects. Students draw the parts in Inventor, place them into a idw and use the save copy feature to save it as a DXF file. The shopbot uses a progam called partworks v2 and it reads DXF files. This worked great for the past few years until this summer when we installed the 2013 inventor on our computers. I contacted Shopbot and they said other people are having the same problem and the solution for most of them was to save the idw file as an older version. Last year we had AutoDesk 2011 and it worked fine. how I can save a 2013 idw as a 2011 idw?
I am opening a file from 2004 and I am using AutoCAD Arch 2012. When I open the file everything is there, but the doors do not cut through the walls. The doors are still there but are not "anchored". Is there a way to fix this easily? I also lost everything out of my door schedule. I know I will get my schedule back when the doors get anchored back to the wall.
These Application Options settings change not infrequently and for reasons that I cannot be certain of:
Sketch: Enable Heads-up Display Edit Dimension when created Look at sketch...on...creation Part: No new sketch goes to x-y plane
This may happen after when I open parts from Inventor 2011 (maybe 2010) into 2012, then create a new part. I would expect the 2012 App Options to be the master, so I don't know why a legacy part would be allowed to change those settings.

I was wondering if there is a big difference in the CS6 over the older version of 5. I was looking to upgrade, but I only see the Creative Cloud as a monthly fee. I also noticed the Creative Suite. Is CS56 available as a stand alone upgrade, or do I need to got with teh Suite or Cloud.
I have photoshop CS for windows. I am trying to send a friend a file. He has photoshop 7 for windows. Whenever he opens my file it shows up as flattened.
What can I do to save my photoshop file as an older version? I know that you can do it with illustrator.
I have an older version of Adobe Photoshop (3.0, 1996) that I have tried to load under Windows 7 and under a "Parallells" WIndows 7 on a MAC OSX 10. Both give me an incompatibility message regarding a 32 bit application and a 64 bit application.
how I can use the older Photoshop under Windows 7.
The installation of Lightroom 4.3 stops with an error message, reading "The older version of Adobe Lightroom 4.3 cannot be removed. Apply to your technical support group".This "older version" is probably a trial version, I had before, which I had to uninstall "by hand" (cancelling files and registry items) since a regular uninstall procedure didn't work.
