Hello,
my computer shut down unexpected and when i went back to the program the project i was working on was deleted. I cant find it. Is there any way of creating a project from files already uploaded on an FTP? or another way?
Thank you

or how to replace a page from an old project to the one uploaded on the web?
Hello Luis,
The online exported files cannot be imported in the program since the program works only with the project file and these exported files are html files.
Did you search inside the folder used to store the projects whch generally is under documents/incomedia?
Many thanks!

it wont show the icon to open it when opening through the software.
And if i try to drop it in it doesnt work either
Did you set the preference folder correct or the folder itself ?
the preference folder (in the preferences of the first page) need to be 1 level above your project file.
example:
the iwprj file is found here:
c:\Documents\your name\Incomedia\evo11\projectname\projectname.iwprj
then the preference folder needs to be:
c:\Documenten\your name\Incomedia\Evo11\
don't use this:
c:\Documenten\your name\Incomedia\Evo11\projectname\ as preference folder.
or don't use this as folder for your project:
c:\Documents\your name\Incomedia\evo11\projectname.iwprj
Hope this helps.

Yes i have it in the right place then.
When i click on it it opens the old incomedia and takes me to the home page to import projects. But of course it cant be imported.. plus this file is from incomedia 10 and it opens 9.
So do I understand correct, you have the preference folder set in V10, you have the project in the correct folder (where v10 is set)
Then you open v10, you go to the project page (press after start up of x5 v10 the start button once)
Then you see this project and if you open it there (in x5) then v9 starts to open ?

Hey, Yes! its madness! i have checked the correct folder. When i click on it it opens the V9 but thats it. No project opens. It just opens the software
That's very very strange. maybe the project is not complete anymore.
It is a V10 project? Not V9 ?
If the files are not too big (under 100mb) you can send it and I will give it a try, but I am at a loss on how to advice you any further.

V10. Ok, I appreciate the effort. It was so strange how the project got lost that i think its probably all broken. I will simply start from over 3 months old project and rebuild.
THANK YOU!
Your Welcome, sorry it didn't workout.
Goodluck with the new project, make backup's often (specially after a lot of modifications) with export project in step 5.
Best Regards, Andre
