IMPORTANT: Catalog Compatibility

[Phil]

The current version of iView Media is a version 2 application and iView MediaPro is a version 3 application. iView catalogs are forwards but NOT backwards compatible. This mean that a version 2 catalog can be opened in version 3. But a version 3 catalog is not guaranteed to work correctly with a version 2 application.

If you use a version 2 application please make a copy of any catalogs you open in version 3 if you ever might want to open those catalogs in a version 2 application again. It is generally good practice to make a backup copy of any document at any time, but even more so when opening important documents (catalogs) in a new application.

This might effect an iView Media 2 customer who wishes to try iView MediaPro 3. If a catalog is saved using iView MediaPro 3 it is then in the version 3 format and is unlikely to be opened correctly by iView Media 2. So it is VERY IMPORTANT that iView Media 2 customers should backup catalogs before trying iView MediaPro 3.
