Import older iCompta file into iCompta 5?

Post by Starius »

Hello!

I've just upgraded one of my systems from OSX 10.10 to OSX 10.11, and my old copy of iCompta has stopped working on it. (I just get a black window when I try to run it now.

I've purchased iCompta 5, but haven't figured out a way to successfully import my old .compta data.
(My iCompta 3 data is saved in a ".compta" file format.)

Is there any way I can get this imported into iCompta 5, now that I've lost access to a working copy of the older iCompta?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. My entire financial history for the last decade is stuck in that file.

(I've sent a email to support asking about this, but thought I would post my question here as well.)

EDIT:
I thought I had iCompta 3, but I just realized what I've been using might be a lot older...

You should download iCompta 3 first : http://www.icompta-app.fr/files/iCompta_3.3.6.dmg
You can open your accounts file with it and it will be upgraded then you can open your upgraded accounts file with iCompta 5.

Ah, thank you very much for the tip!
