Mar 13, 2016 6:07 PM in response to mortieby fox_m,I cannot verify this suggestion... but it might be worth a try.
Do NOT try this if you've used any new features in Motion that weren't available in FCPX 10.1 (e.g.: 3D Text or the *new* rectangle or circle shapes.)
Make a copy of the original first! (Option drag a copy to the desktop.)
As long as the template is relatively "generic":
Open the .moti file in TextWrangler (this might work in TextEdit as long as it is not RTF format.) TextWrangler is free software and is available at http://www.barebones.com/support/textwrangler/updates.html TextWrangler will not change the original file type.
On line 5, there is:
<displayversion>5.2.3</displayversion>
change it to
<displayversion>5.1.2</displayversion>
and save.
Swap the original (save elsewhere) with the modified file.
Try it in FCPX.
If your template does contain the new shapes (circles/rectangles) then go into each shape inspector > Geometry and Convert to Points.
As I said, I cannot test this. Proceed with caution. If it comes down to it -- if possible -- your client should back up their libraries and update FCPX to the current version.
