fusion 2013 to fusion 2011

[thehaze]

Hi at everyone...

I need to open a file that I've done on fusion 2013 with an older version (1.0.0.79)..it's a simple sketch, but if i save it as dwg on the older one it says that the file is still open or is just only read, but it's really none of the two...how can I do?

Thanks

If you have access to AutoCAD you can 'backsave' to older versions.

However, you say it's a simple sketch. Have you considered re-drawing it?

Hi Phil, thanks for the reply...

I've try to use dwg converter and now I'm able to open the file in autocad 2012, then I try to save it again, also trying other formats, but inventor keep telling me that's the project it's done with a newer version of inventor fusion and it isn't supported...any furhter ideas? thanks!

Sorry to hear it's not working.

Aside from just redrawing the simple sketch, the only other suggestion I have is to upgrade the Inventor Fusion 2011 to Inventor Fusion 2013. You can get it here: http://labs.autodesk.com/technologies/fusion
