Compatibility with older versions of workstation

can I open in the latest version of workstation the vmx file in the directory of the virtual machines of an older version of workstation for example version 9

who is first uninstalled?

With a more recent VMware Workstation, you can open virtual machines created on old VMware Workstation without problem, but you will not be able to open a virtual machine created on a newer VMware Workstation in an old VMware Workstation if you have created the virtual machine using a new version of virtual hardware that is not compatible with the old VMware Worksation.

See the virtual hardware version compatibility: VMware KB: versions of virtual machine hardware

  • Remove the compatibility with older Versions of Adobe Acrobat

    I'm trying to scan hundreds of documents as PDF files using Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.5.5. I'm on Mac, the latest version of El Capitan and find that Preview 8.1, the PDF Viewer integrated for OS X, has difficulties to open a portion of my scanned documents. Interestingly, the only ones who have color in them. Black and white analysis open very well. I think it's an Apple problem, and not what I'm here for.

    Anyway, I went back to PDF it wasn't opening and Acrobat to remove compatibility with earlier versions of Acrobat. I kept compatibility with "Acrobat 4.0 and later versions. After that the file opened without problem in the preview. I noticed that the quality of the new PDF degraded slightly when I removed the compatibility. I guess that's because Acrobat must perform a new rendering of the PDF file.

    Is there a way I can create a PDF file to a JPEG file that is only compatible with versions 4.0 and later? I rather do pretty early in my workflow, and then go back and remove the compatibility and degrade image quality.

    Thank you!

    Hi Link648099,

  • Nexus 1000v VSM compatibility with older versions of VEM?

    Hello everyone.

    I would like to upgrade our Nexus 1000v VSM 4.2 (1) SV1 (5.1) to 4.2 (1) SV2(2.1a) because we are heading of ESXi 5.0 update 3 to 5.5 ESXi in the near future. I was not able to find a list of compatibility for the new version when it comes to versions VEM, I was wondering if the new VSM supports older versions VEM, we are running, so I must not be upgraded all at once. I know that it supports two versions of our ESXi.

    Best regards

    Pete

    You found documentation, transfer of the station from 1.5 to latest code is supported in a VSM perspective.  Which is not documented is the small one on the MEC.  In general, the VSM is backward compatible with the old VEM (to a degree, the degree of which is not published).  Although it is not documented (AFAIK), verbal comprehension is that MEC can be a version or two behind, but you should try to minimize the time that you run in this configuration.

    If you plan to run mixed versions VEM when getting your upgraded hosts (totally fine that's how I do mine), it is better to move to this enhanced version of VEM as you upgrade the hypervisor.  Since you go ESXi 5.0 5.5, you create an ISO that contains the Cisco VIBs, your favorite driver async (if any), and the image of ESXi 5.5 all grouped together so the upgrade for a given host is all of a sudden.  You probably already have this cold technique, but the links generated by the Cisco tool below will show you how to proceed.  It also gives some URLS handy to share with each person performing functions on this upgrade.  Here is the link:

    Nexus 1000V and ESX upgrade utility

    PS - the new thing takes clones your VSMs offline.  Even if they are fairly easy to recover, having a real pure clone will save some sauce secret that otherwise you may lose in a failure scenario.  Just turn off a VSM, then right click and clone.  Turn on again this MSM and failover pair HA, then take to the bottom of it and get a clone of it.  So as a security measure, this upgrade, get your clones currently out of the current 1.5 VSMs, then some time after your upgrade some clones offline, saved from the new version.

  • How to make my form to be compatible with older versions of adobe

    Hello

    I created a dynamic form with adobe life cycle 9. As users try to use the form, they get this error:

    "This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe® Reader® or Adobe Acrobat® software. Although this form may seem to work, some items may not work correctly or may not appear at all. »

    Is there a way to make the form compatible with older versions of adobe?

    Thank you.

    In the menuFichier-> properties of form as the default tab, choose the Version target of Adobe Reader that you expect users to the minimum version.

    If the feature is not compatible with the selected version, then the warnings will be displayed on the report tab. You can access it by going to the menu of the window-> report.

  • Workstation 12 Pro backward compatibility with previous versions.

    After having been informed on a cat to support Workstation 12 Pro is fully compatible with all previous versions, I buy the product.   After installation, I try to open a virtual machine created in Workstation 8 without success.   I went to the preferences box and configure the product for 8 x compatibility, with the same results.

    After double clicking the VM vmx file, the product does absolutely nothing, no errors, no message, nothing.   I want to know if this product really is backward compatible and if this is the case, what should I do to make it work with the virtual machines created in WS 8 x?

    Your help is appreciated.

    Reynaldo Nunez

    Thanks a lot for your answer.   What technical support is suggested:

    Through our discussion, we did the below steps, and this has helped us to solve the problem:

    1. from the VMX file, we have deleted similar entries to:

    Policy.VM.mvmtid = ' 52 6f 36 0f 31 9f f3 f9 d6 da 9f f5 90 7B this 76.

    policy.vm.managedVMTemplate = 'TRUE '.

    policy.vm.managedVM = "FALSE".

    2. we have built and rebuilt the two files 'VMware political' outside of the virtual machine and then we were able to power on the virtual machine.

    Now, everything should continue to be stable and we should not have problems.

  • Prompting to update the drivers with older versions of HP

    My HP Support Assistant gave me a notice this morning that I had updates that should be installed.  I opened it and tried to install the recommended updates as I normally would without having to pay a lot of attention to what the updates were.  When I received a message 'Complete', I assumed that all installed successfully.  However, the Support assistant always recommend to install the same 4 updates.

    I then ran that Windows update to see if it would pick up the same recommended driver updates, and recommended update Realtek... that I then downloaded and installed successfully. (screenshot below)

    I rebooted the PC and returned to the HP Support Assistant to check updates again see if the Realtek update would be absent.  But he was always showing as an update with the same other 3.  I tried to download/install each update individually.  Updates failed, and the Synaptics Touchpad driver gave me a warning that says «a newer version is installed...» ', so that updating technically has not failed, but support assistant tells me that it needs to be updated.  See screenshots.

    Also note that I checked that my version of HP Support Assistant is the latest version available.

    I thought that my next step would be to try the HP support website to see if the updates can be installed successfully there.  I ran the scan of web on my laptop and got the following results.  Note that the update Realtek is here for a reason, while it still appear in the support Wizard

    If the release date is correct for each recommended, and then for some reason any update I'm being invited to install older versions of the driver.  I tried to install each update anyway.  When you start the extraction of the file for each update, a guest would come in telling me that the files already existed (because I have probably installed these versions at the time where they were released).  I chose to replace files anyway.

    I received a warning while doing the update Broadcom that says "OS not supported", so that the update failed.  And even once when installing the Synaptics Touchpad driver I got a warning that «a newer version is installed...» ', which suggests that, in fact, I was trying to install an older version of the driver.

    Intel to date seemed to work, but it still shows as requiring updates when I perform another web analysis.

    I hope someone can tell me what is happening.

    Hi Boss1022,

    Even if you have a recent version of HP Support Assistant, I would recommend probably uninstall and reinstall the latest version with a new download of;

    http://h18021.www1.HP.com/helpandsupport/HP-support-Assistant.html

    What can happen, is that the HPSA has lost track of what drivers and updates are installed and which are the most common recommended, probably due to corruption in the databases it uses.  Uninstalling and reinstalling is the simplest solution.  You can find instructions to uninstall HPSA down Troubleshooting HP Support Assistant (Windows 7).

    If this does not work, after back and we can get more involved solutions.

  • What to do with older versions of Adobe

    I recently upgraded to Adobe and wonder if I should remove the previous versions from adobe?

    When you update Java, they also provide you with instructions to remove all older versions, so I was wondering if the same thing with Adobe?

    Thank you!

    Manual

    Hello

    You will be prompted to remove earlier versions of Adobe.

    It is recommended to delete the previous versions to avoid any conflict with the new version update.

    It is also recommended to delete the previous versions, so that it does not cause any other problems with your current version.

  • VI backwards compatibility with older engines of execution

    Currently, I have developed a VI in Labview 8.6.1.  I also created an exe file to make it so that I can run on a different computer.  However, the other computer has an older version of the Run-Time engine installed, and so my program cannot be run on this computer without upgrading the runtime of 8.6.1.  But... this computer also has some programs that run on this version of the runtime.  I have two options here, but I do not know the effects or how to do it.

    (1) install a newer version of the runtime engine (8.6.1) - this will break the current functionality of the programs already on it?

    (2) is it possible to have my VI run on earlier versions of the Runtime Engine?  If so, how do I?

    Thank you.

    As dennis said simply install the new runtime. We have machines that have 5 versions of the engine runtime on them and we have not encountered any problem.

  • AnyConnect 4.2 does not not with older versions of the site.

    Hey all,.

    We have improved our anyconnect VPN to 4.2.030013 version since we cannot connect to sites that has version 3.1.05182. Users cannot connect to these sites, what is the massage of the error they get:

    "The connection attempt has failed. Please try again. »

    09:10:53 the connection attempt has failed.

    But if we use a version earlier than 4.X, it works very well.

    Is anyone familiar with this problem? AFAIK Anyconnect must be compatible backwards with any version almost.

    Thanks in advance.

    Yes 4 Anyconnect no longer support RC4.

    Replace more stronger ciphers such as AES and SHA.

    Let me know, please, if this helped.

    i. right click on the program

    II. click on properties

    III. click on the Compatibility tab

    IV. Select run this program in compatibility mode and select windows vista

  • Firefox 18.0.01 (Mac) will not synchronize bookmarks with older versions of FF 9! 0.5.8 and 10.4.11) how can I synchronize these versions? Thank you

    Firefox has just upgraded itself to 18.0.1 on my iMac (OSX Lion 10.7.5)
    I've been using "sync." Pro ' for ten years of synchronization (or backup) my iMac to my three laptops.»

    The Laptops are all PPC (non-Intel)  iBooks of various vintages, running OS X 10.5.8 and 10.4.11.
    

    The synchs ran fine until yesterday, when FF 18.0.1 arrived

    Synchronize! Pro sync the folder of portable profiles of Firefox to the version pre - 18.0.1 in the same folder in the three computers PPC running FF / drnpcf9j.default 3.6.24 and 3.6.28.

    Now, with the upgrade to the 18.0.1, version it won't sync. The bookmarks are now located in a folder named "Profiles" that contains two new folders, none of them named the former 'drnpcf9j.default '.

    How can I synchronize (or backup) my new profiles or bookmarks for three former iBooks)

    Firefox sync will not work because older browsers is not a synchronization configuration in the menu 'tools '.

    Dear welcome suggestions.

    Thank you very much

    -GG

    Try this:

    From the computer whose bookmarks you want to copy:
    Open the "Show All Bookmarks" window.
    Click "Import and Backup" and choose Backup.  Firefox will want to backup to the desktop, which is fine.
    Transfer the file to the other computers.  Again, desktop is fine.
    
    From the other computers:
    Open the bookmarks window as before.
    Choose Restore from the "Import and Backup" item, and from there, click on "Choose File".
    Again, Firefox will want to get the file from the desktop, which is where you put it.
    Click on the .json file and it will be loaded into the bookmarks.
    
  • Save the Muse file with older version

    I'm working on a Web site with another person across the country. I upgraded to Muse CC, she didn't. Is it possible to save the changes I do in a way which she can then make future changes to the file?

    Hi Luis,.

    Please refer to the response of Zak in this related question, why I have to "save under" a Muse site, I've been working on?

    Muse supports not 'save back' either export to an earlier version, so if you need to share the file with another person who uses an earlier version or for a reason, go back to the previous version of Muse, you must file in the older file format.

    If you already use an automated backup system and/or store your .muse file in a cloud folder synchronized, keeping the extra copy is not necessary, since these mechanisms would provide another way to revert to a previous version of the file, if need is always.
