About Compatibility with Projects Created in Previous Versions of Smoke

Projects and clip libraries created in previous versions of Smoke are read-only.

• If the original project is on the same system, create a project in 2012 and then copy the clip libraries from the old project to the new project.

  If you have many projects to upgrade, use the project upgrade script to create the 2012 projects for you. See Upgrading Smoke Projects to the Current Version.

• If the original project is on another system that has a previous version installed, transfer (push) the clip libraries to a project on the 2012 system. See Transferring Clip Libraries from a Previous Project on a Remote Host to a 2012 Project
• Alternatively, you can archive the project from an older version and restore the archive in the latest version. See the application help for instructions on creating and restoring archives.
