You just said the forbidden words! hehe
Quoting Koz from another thread:
kozikowski wrote:We know we're in trouble when people use the phrase "aup file" instead of Audacity Project. Projects can be thousands of individual files with the aup file being the show manager.
If you move the AUP without moving anything else, that's usually the end of the world.
You can open 1.2 audacity projects in audacity 1.3, but not the other way. Between different 1.3 audacity versions I'm not sure which is the backward compatibility.

Oops

Apologies for the mistake.
Include as much details as you can in your post (Audacity version, Operating System, Equipment used, etc).
Please post your question in the appropriate forum (regarding audacity version and operating system).

As far as I'm aware, the current 1.3 version of Audacity can correctly open projects made by all previous versions (at least as far back as Audacity 1.2.
Of course old versions of Audacity cannot be expected to support new features that did not exist when the old software was written, and as bgravato wrote, Audacity 1.2.x cannot open projects that have been saved by Audacity 1.3.x.
