Pro Tools 2018 to PT 10?

[Chap]

Hi,
I have a client that needs to fix up a few tracks for a TV show. I mix/record in PT 2018 and they use PT10. I'm not seeing an option to save from 2018 to 10. Am I missing something?
I have a drive with PT10 installed if that helps. Thanks in advance.

They use the same .ptx extension/file format so they should be able to open a 2018 session in PT10.

On a similar note, is it possible to open up PT 7 HD files in the latest pro tools version?

I've been going back & forth from PT10HD in my studio to PT2018 (vanilla) at home & back to PT10HD again...no major issues found so far other than the odd plugin..

You should be fine. I did open PT2018 session into PT10HD with no issues.

When you open a current .ptx on PT10 what happens is PT10 will drop all the new features (introduced in PT11 and newer) from the session and when you re-open it in the current system all those new version edits are blank. If that isn't an issue, you're not going to experience much more trouble.
