Will latest version 2014 work with older version backups ?

Thread needs solution

I would like to know if I upgrade the product to current 2014 version, will my previous backups made over the last 4 years with v2010 still be accessible? I have seen comments which suggest this is not possible, and I would need to make all new backups. Obviously some of the older backups now contain record data which is no longer on current machines.
Many thanks.

Peter,
Under most circumstances, the 2014 should restore backups created via 2010. My practice is never delete old backup if it is possible tor retain.

Booting from the user created TI Recovery CD is the recommended method of recovery of a backup so as a precaution, it would be easy to retain a copy of the 2010 Recovery CD. Just label the 2010 TI REcovery CD and file it away but accessible. Also, retain a copy of the 2014 CD.

The 2014 installation will replace your existing 2010 and all new backp TASKS will need to be created as 2010 and 2014 design differs greatly.
