A processor won't connect

Close all Revit processes, click Repair Add-ons, and check the logs in the .bimeta-jobs folder.

A job is stuck in “Processing” after a crash

Set the job to Retry and start again — completed families are skipped.

Can I downgrade families to an older Revit?

No. Revit can't save families to an older version.

Type catalogs and lookup tables are missing

They aren't copied automatically; copy them alongside the upgraded families.

The upgrade stalls on one family

A family that opens a modal dialog in Revit can block automation. Open it manually in Revit, resolve the prompt, then retry.
