  After Effects CS3 not playing nice with old projects

  Posted by Amber Navarrete on November 14, 2007 at 7:50 pm

  Has anyone with the new AE CS3 experienced issues when trying to open old projects created in After Effects 7.0?

  On one particular 7.0 project file CS3 crashes when I scrub in my time line. Today on a different 7.0 project I keep getting an error message that says ‘After Effects warning: Unable to import file _____.ep as project’ when I try to open it in CS3.

  Trying to work around the problem I tried to just import the old ae project into a new comp in CS3 and I get the error: After Effects error: flushing file _____.aep – bad parameter (-50)

  Luckily I still have AE 7.0 but I know that it shouldn’t work this way.

  Does anyone know of a solution or a patch or do I just have a faulty install?

  Thx,
  Amber
