I've got an animator who = took over a project of mine for a client, and he's only running on AE = 5.5 and I'm on CC.  I provided CC and CS6 versions of the project, = but he can't open either.. 

Would need conversion to 5.5 if = possible.

message me off-list if you can help = and I'll provide a link to the file in question.. just need it opened, = saved down to 5.5 and closed, no worries about assets being missing, = etc.

Thanks,
