    Inventor 2012 and AutoCAD 2013

    Are there any issues running Inventor 2012 and installing AutoCAD 2013 from product design suite?

     

    We have Inventor 2012 running alongside Navisworks and Showcase 2013 with no apparent issues and are on subscription

    Should be no problem.

    I have both Product Design Suite Premium 2012 and Ultimate 2013 fully installed with no issues. Prior to my 2013 install I did a 30 day trial install of AutoCAD 2013 Electrical with no issues running Inventor and AutoCAD 2012 at the same time. I uninstalled Electrical and installed Ultimate on the same day.

    Hope that helps.

    Sometimes you just need a good old reboot.

    Just remember to save your files in AutoCAD 2012 format. I believe 2013 uses the 2013 format.

    Thanks for the replies, everything seems to be in order...

     

    We already discovered the 2013 format from a rogue install of autocad lt without the company install notes
