Sounds like some sort of lyx2lyx conversion error. If you can run LyX
from a terminal, you should get more error messages, though that won't
solve the problem by itself. So, alternatively, try posting one of the
problematic files here, or sending it to me privately, if you prefer,
and we can try to figure it out.

I get the same problem after upgrading to LyX 2.0.7 (I'm not sure from which
version), when trying to open files that I had been using daily. I have
tried re-installing 2.0.7 as well as using version 1.6.10, but the same
error appears. What do you suggest, is there a way to access other LyX
versions?
What version of LyX were these files created in?
