Q) Why do I get the 'incompatible versions' message when upgrading my data file?

A) This problem arises from trying to convert a file from one localized version (say Money UK) to another (say Money US).

The workaround it to export accounts using QIF and re-import them. The fix is to obtain a newer localized version for the same country as your original data file.
