.xmcd to .mcdx conversion

Can someone please convert this attached .xmcd file to .mcdx for me? I switched from Mathcad 15 to prime 3.0 but the student license we have doesn't give us the converter feature on Prime 3.0. 

 

Many thanks,

Jay

Its not a limitation of the student edition of Prime.

To be able to convert files from legacy format to Prime format you must have a full version of Mathcad 15 installed on your machine. Mathcad 15 will happily run if you point it to the license file you created when you installed Prime.

You can download Mathcad 15 here:

I can't do the conversion for you as I don't have Prime 3 installed and newer versions of prime can't save in older versions format and so your prime 3 would not be able to open the file I converted.

Thank you for replying Vladimir, I was able to acquire it by having installed mathcad 15 and prime 3.0 at the same time. A bit illogical, but meh it worked! haha
