Can iBooks Author 2.0 open previous version of iBooks Author files? Having trouble with this.

Updated iBooks Author to 2.0 but can't seem to load the iBook I was perviously working on (says cannot load document). Still loads fine on my other Mac using the pervious version of iBooks. Happen to anyone else or is this just a glitch with my file? Not a huge deal since I can use the pervious version to finish it off but just wondering.

Thanks,

Patrick

I just contacted iBook Authors support and the response I got was that I would have to recreate the iba file in the new version of the software. I mentioned this fix they provided you and they didn't offer to convert the file. Did you follow up with an additional request for assistance through the Support web page? I have been working on this project since last year and so close to completing it. I don't remember anything like this happening with any upgrade. Very frustrated.
