Hi Raymond,

It's common to ask your Uni's administrators to upgrade the LyX
version there. 2.0.3 is quite old and if they are responsible they
should have an easy way of doing it.

Failing that, you either use 2.0.8.1 on your laptop (this is what I
would personally do if I used both computers frequently) or you can
use 2.1.x and export to 2.0.x (file > export) whenever you want to use
the file on the uni computer.

Best,

Scott
