Running MacOS Monterrey and getting this error message trying to open
old lyx files as recent as 2016:
“file.lyx is from an older version of LyX and the lyx2lyx script
failed to convert it.”
Unclear what to do from online forums. Any advice? I’m not a
developer, so step-by-step would be appreciated. I have tried installing
old versions of lyx but without success. Below is the lyx preamble
Thanks
Tim
