Hi,
is it possible, to restore a *.tib file was created with Acronis Backup & Restore ver. 10 as file backup using True Image?
Exists anywhere a compatibility table for actual versions?
Thank's

Hello Manfred,

Thank you for using Acronis Products

You can’t restore .tib files created by means of Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 programs using Acronis True Image. See the following compatibility list using KB article

Hello,
i dont understand the KB article. Clearly, i've created *.tib-images with Acronis True Image Home 11. Can I validate and restore those *.tib-files with Acronis Backup & Recovery 10?
Thanks for some clear statement.

I interpret the chart as saying compatibility is not guaranteed. You will have to try and see.

i have tried, in fact.
BR10 sees the *.tib-file (saved/burned on DVD+R) and automatically displays its internal comment (i always comment my *.tib-images, cha!!). when i try to click on 'OK' or 'Next' (for validation or ..etc..) it gives me an error message "cant find file" with error code.

BR10 and TIH11 are both current versions of Acronis *.tib-image creating technology.

it's a s*ame that they are not inter-compatible. and vice versa. (*.tib-file created with BR10 cant be validated or restored with TIH11).

If some Acronis official expert can re-confirm all this...

Acronis never cease to surprise me!! :P

I don't know what you expect them to confirm. The chart was pretty clear that compatibility was not guaranteed.

the chart (somewhat) confirms it, yes, true.
i would rather hear it from the mouth from a human being. a person. and once such an Acronis person (responsible for development) has to admit it in person, he should feel bad admitting it.

TrueImageHome11 and BackupAndRecovery10 are both current versions. I had understood (from www.acronis.com) that the latter is the successor of the former, so that in future TrueImageHome wont exist anymore. Then i would REALLY assume some compatibility.

anyway..
etc..

Hello,

thomasjk, thanks for the help.

Peter, let me assist. As thomasjk mentioned, compatibility between True Image 11 and Backup&Recovery 10 is not guaranteed. Please also be aware that Acronis True Image 11 Home is a very old version, we've already released 2 new versions, and the current one is Acronis True Image Home 2010.

Please replyto this thread if you have any questions.

Thank you.

Hello Ilya, thanks for the answer.
Oh! maybe i mixed up numbers. i thought that TI11 and TI2010 are the same versions (with 11 being the internal version of "named 2010 release").

Anyway i am sure that i created my *.tib's with TIH2010 (and not with TI11). So, TIH2010 images are not compatible with BR10 product, correct?

Too bad :(
