Hello,
I have 1.4.3. I get a message that lyx2lyx cannot convert from an
earlier version of lyx. What should i do?
There are two possibilities: The file is actually from an older version
of LyX (1.5), or the file is corrupt. To find out, open the file in a
text editor, like vi. You'll see the format number at the beginning of
the file. The version for 1.4.x files is 245. Later is 1.5 (or 1.6.svn).
If the file is from 1.5, upgrade to 1.4.5.1: It can read files from 1.5.
If the problem is file corruption, we can try to solve the problem if
you post the file here.
