Unknown File Extension (Musical)

Recommended Posts

I am doing my final setup for next weekend and just ran into a problem.  I have been using my Mac with Windows all along to build my show and all of the file reside on the computer.  I will be using a PC in the garage for the show, so I am transferring all of the files via thumb drive to the PC.  All seemed to transfer just fine but now when I tried to Run on Demand, the Control Panel opens and returns this message:

ERROR WITH SEQUENCE [Unknown file extension] Musical:

When I run a sequence by itself on the PC however, everything works just fine.  The file names and extensions are exactly the same on the Mac and the PC.  Not sure what that message means or how to resolve.

Any ideas?

By default, Windows hides filename extensions.  If that is the case, the files could really be <filename>.mp3.<whatever crap extension the MAC used>.  I would verify that extensions are not hidden.

In Windows Explorer on the View Menu is an option to show File Name Extensions (exactly how it needs to be set varies depending on Windows version).
