When I'm in Inventor 2012 and opening an assembly file from Inventor 2009 I get a `Resolve Link' window saying I have unresoved references(not found in project). Most of these seem to be `hardware' files from the content center. How do I get Inventor 2012 to recognize these parts?
Have you used "pack and go" function to create a project for the 2009 Assembly files ?(Right click on the Assembly and Select "Park and Go")
The Default Content Center file location can be set in project setting, see the picture below:
if you didn't pack&Go the Assembly and open it in 2012 , inventor will try to find the Content center file from the Default Content Center folder and workspace folder, if Inventor can't find the file, "Resolve Link" Window will pop up
you can try to change the Content Center Files folder to the specific folder contains the Content center file and trg again
but I recommended you Park&Go the 2009 Assembly files, then Load the project in 2012 to open the Assembly
Let me know if it works
