cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of Articu

1.Creat a new project,

2. Preview this project!

3. If it is normal, maybe your old project has been processed by presenter 13 but you forgot or by someone else using presenter 13 but you don't know!

Thank you Terry,

I don't really understand the meaning of those three steps up there... I need to open a project made by a professor. She put 6 hours on this project... Now she wants me to publish it.

What can I do?

But anyway, the project must be opened by presenter 09.

If it was creatediin Studio 13 then it will not open, you will need Studio 13.

You really need to find out what version of Studio they used, it may be that you simply need to update your version of Studio, or it may be an unfortunate situation where it has been produced in a newer version and you will be unable to open it.

Hi Mario! Glad that you were able to get the assistance that you needed here.

Mario,

A trial version of presenter 13 may be helpful  for your case if it is urgent.

but the new software needs to be installed on the other computer. 

Mario,

There is an option.

Ask your professor export the audio files and send them to you.(including ppt)

Then you can import the audio files into the project by presenter 09.

I have a similar problem but slightly different. When I open up an Articulate Quizmaker '13 file with Quizmaker '13, I get the message, "This project cannot be opened. It may have been created in a newer version of Quizmaker." (See attached screen shot opened_with_qm-13.png) How can this file possibly be created with something newer than QM '13?

When I open the same file in Quizmaker '09, I get the message, "The path or file name for 01_Accuracy Knowledge Check.quiz is invalid. Please check that the path and file name are correct." (See attached screen shot opened_with_qm-09.png) It seems there is no way for me to open this file. 

Can anybody else open 01_Accuracy Knowledge Check.quiz? (Also attached)

Hi Nathan! I am unable to open this quiz in either version as well and get the same errors that you are reporting. Seems that the file may be corrupted.

Bummer. I have ten of these quizzes that produce the same results. Does that mean I'm pretty much hosed and I need to rebuild all of them? 

Hi Nathan! 

If you want to share more with our team here, perhaps we can figure out what is going on.

What version of Quizmaker were the files created in? Did you work and save locally?

Hi. I am having a similar problem here. I have a quiz created in Quizmaker 13 that opens quite happily in my Quizmaker 13 but will not open in a collegue's newly installed and registered version of Quizmaker 13. When we try to open it on his Articulate stidio installation from within the presentation it makes all the right noises but just doesn't open at all and returns to the PowerPoint slide it is embedded in. When we try and open it directly from Quizmaker 13 it says the 'File is corrupt' which it clearly isn't. If we try yo import the slides it says that another instance of the quiz is open elsewhere. I am running update V5 and he is running the latest download from the Articulate site (V7). Any ideas as it is perplexing us.

Hi Ron, I lucked out and got replacement files from our client who happened to have copies. However, when I shared my problem with another team member, she pointed me to some other articles that might be helpful:

Hopefully there's something in there that you can use!

Hi Ron,

You mentioned you're running different updates - but there isn't a Quizmaker '13 update 7, so I would want to check into that element first in addition to the items Nathan shared. Please let us know if you're still having difficulty or able to figure which version/update your colleague is using.
