Opening earlier Captivate files - .cp

[annej46001989]

I am using Captivate 7.  In 2006 I created many files using an earlier version Captivate that saved the project with .cp extension name.  I need to fix several .cp  projects.  Any I ideas?

You would need a version 5 to update first to that version, and from that updated version to 7 or later.

But I want to warn you: I'm not sure at all that you will end up with a project that can be useful because so much has changed. Not sure, but 2006 means you were using version 2? AS2 is no longer supported by Captivate since version 4, when the UI changed very much. Themes were added in version 6. Personally I would try to recreate from scratch, using the images, backgrounds and other assets from the older versions.

Can I download Captivate 5 to fix the problem?

I don't think it will be fixed, but here is a link:

Adobe Captivate 5 Now Available For Instant Download! | ProDesignTools

Thank you for the link, but unfortunately you were right.  The link for Captivate 5 redirects to download Captivate 9.  I guess Adobe no longer allows Captive 5 downloads.  At this point, I basically have recreate a lot of Captivate projects which will set me back 6 months of work, unless someone has an idea for a solution.
