I am having trouble installing the "AutoCAD Architecture-MEP Object Enabler for AutoCAD LT." Whenever I try to install it, I immediately get a screen that says, "Setup was unable to detect any target applications for AutoCAD Architecture-MEP Oblject Enabler for AutoCAD LT." I have tried restarting the computer, running the install program with LT on and off, etc.
Anyone have any ideas?

The message I am trying to get rid when I open certain files says that I am missing enabler AECBBLDSRV60 for AutoCAD MEP 2008. See attached for screen captures.
That OE does not work.
Nothing you can do about it until Autodesk fixes it or removes it.
Two things to know:
- If the intent is to send that MEP file back to the 2008 user, then you opening and saving it in LT2011 (regardless of what your save format is set to) will ruin those AEC objects for them for life. Do you know what the future distribution of this DWG file is?
- If this is a one way file delivery (you keep it, they never see it back), ask them to "export to autocad" the file for you and send you a version with no AEC content in it (or you could do the same with the -EXPORTTOAUTOCAD command and see if you can do it too).
Is there a way to identify the proxy object and remove it so I don't get a popup every time I open files? The main reason I was trying to install the object enabler is to get rid of the popup asking me if I want to display proxy objects.
Hi, the updated MEP OE for AutoCAD LT 2011 has been posted to the following location:
http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/dl/item?siteID=123112&id=14896138&linkID=9240818
This will allow you to run the OE install and have it successfully target AutoCAD LT. Please let me know if you have any further questions. Thank you.

If you can't find the one you want, it's not available (or not available yet): no one at Autodesk pre-announces releases, so watch it regularly.
Thanks for the link. :). i installed it and now I am trying to export Autocad Architecture drawings to Autocad LT english but when i hit EXPORTTOAUTOCAD /AECTOACAD, it says unknown command.
Is this because I opened Autocad Architecture drawing in Autocad LT 2013?
Thanks,
Sudha
-EXPORTTOAUTOCAD has a dash in the name of the command: type it.
If you get an unknown command your LT 2013 installation is messed up or missing a component and you may need to reinstall, it has nothing to do with the DWG file source AFAIK.
Thanks for your quick reply. I tried with dash too but it doesn't work and pops up a window named' choose an application'. I have attached the pop up window here. Hope it helps to figure out the problem. Thanks once again for the responses.

-PURGE command (note there is a dash in the name), type it and purge the REGAPPS loaded in the file first, see if that helps.
Or you could ask the file creator to "export to autocad" for you.
