True Image 2017 can't read segmented tib files from 2011

Thread needs solution

I have true Image 2012 and 2017. I have a backup external drive that has a folder the contain 7, 4GB file segments:

filename_HP.tib

filename_HP2.tib

filename_HP3.tib

filename_HP4.tib

filename_HP5.tib

filename_HP6.tib

filename_HP7.tib

Neither 2012 or 2017 true image can read this old backup. How can I load this old backup? How can I convert the segments to one contiguious .Tib file that can be read from the 2012 or 2017 versions of true image?

I would say that you could use the bootable rescue media of the 2011 application to recover the backup files.

Once you have done the recovery, you could create a new *.tib, either as a disk image or file backup. For a disk image you would need an empty disk to restore to.
