A couple of people have had issues opening the latest project. It works fine but it's made with the latest version of Live (11.1) so you must be up to date to open it.

I could go back to making the videos in Live 10, but I will need to switch at some point, probably sooner rather than later. Let me know your preference below.

Hello, if you have windows OS you can't upgrade at live 11.1... 😔

Dilby

What's not true. The latest version for Windows is 11.1 If you are having an issue downloading it, please reach out to the customer support. They will help you get it sorted.

i can download it ... but i cant open it. looks like there is an error in the zip-file. and yes, i have the latest ableton version greetings tony stark ;)

Steve

same I have the latest Ableton 11 and can't open.

Dilby

ok guys, I'm going to try and figure it out tomorrow. Really sorry for the issue. I have tested it and it works for me on multiple machines.

Dilby

Is it that the .ALP file won't unzip? Or that once it's unzipped you can't open the project?

I use ableton 11, the last project could not open

Chris Carter

I had to open a new instance of Live and then drag the ALP zipped file over to Live to unzip it. Then pick a destination to save the folder. Seems to work.

Dilby

Can someone please tell me. Does the pack not unzip, or is it that the project doesn't open? I can't recreate the same issue as it works fine on both my computers. So I need to know what exactly I need to fix. Thanks :)

Dilby

I have used "collect all and save" and then uploaded a .zip file of the project folder. Please let me know if that works to resolve the issue. Or if you are still unable to open the actual Live Project.

Andrea Marchiodi

Now i can open the project! thanks a lot! I upgrade manually and now i have the 11.1 Version!

Dilby

Great, thanks for the update! Glad it's working. Sorry about the hassle on this one.

I still couldn't open it, it keeps giving the same message that needs the current version of live =/

Dilby

ok, and you have Ableton 11.1 installed?

jame starck

yes i have same problem with ableton 11

Dilby

What is the problem bro? Still waiting for anyone to give me more details. Is the issue that you have Live 11.1 installed but the project still says it was made with a newer version of Live when you try to open the project?

Dilby

Thanks in advance for clarifying it :)

Dilby

This is what Chris Carter said above... "I had to open a new instance of Live and then drag the ALP zipped file over to Live to unzip it. Then pick a destination to save the folder. Seems to work." How does that compare to the problem you are having?

jame starck

no he said that the project his made with a new ableton version and when i press ok open the project empty with the channel ready to use like no sample or midi file inside

jame starck

ok i see that we need to upgrade ableton live from 11 to 11.1

Dilby

Yes, it needs to be up to date. It was made with the most recent version. One of my clients sent me a project the day before I made the video. He was using 11.1 so I had to update to open his project. Now everybody is having problems with my project files. Really sorry for the trouble :( Can you please let me know if it works once you have updated to Live 11.1?

Dilby

Thank you brother! I really appreciate that :)
