    I have a Media 100 version 6 which still serves me well. Currently I am encountering a serious problem: a crucial timelines doesn’t open. When I double click on the icon, a window asks me if I want to ‘import the media file’ into a new bin, even though the timeline is a Media 100 document. It is fairly long, about 90 minutes. When I do tell it to open by importing, there is of course not enough memory to do so. I tried to open the timeline in a new project, and/or with all the media offline. Still, there’s no way to get it to open up. It is a crucial document. When can I do?
