Not a Problem

That worked before and I just tested the import on another device running Locus map 4 and the import worked

there was no error message when locus map classic imported the backup file. It reported success and as usual wanted a restart which I did, but points and tracks were empty.

Since the introduction of the new MyLib in LM4, the databases of LM3 (classic) and LM4 are no longer compatible and must be kept separate.

Hi Thomas,

beginning with Locus Map version 4.28, its track/point database is no longer compatible with Locus Map Classic. The import of a backup file still works because it contains not only the database but also settngs and other configuration data. However, Locus Map Classic is no longer able to display LM4 database.
