I have recently moved my license from MAXQDA18 to MAXQDA20.
I'm working with large documents (Parliamentary debates transcripts) for my Case studies, and with MAXQDA18 I had no problem importing those as a Focus group, so I can attribute variables to the speakers.
When I tried to create the projects for the current cased study, each project is around 1000-3000 pages in Word, MAXQDA20 couldn't import the whole document only included a small segment of the document. Thankfully, I still had access to MAXQDA18, which again created the projects and imported documents without a hitch. When I tried to open the projects with MAXQDA20 it imported the Speakers and created the corresponding codes, however, the text was missing. The Document Browser is empty except for the speaker's codes listed on the side (See attachment).
The only transfer it could make was the smallest project which was around 700 pages in Word.
And I have the latest version of MAXQDA20 (20.0.7)
What can I do, the only solution I came up with is trying to transfer my license back to 2018 version, because this way the new one doesn't work for me. So I would appreciate any suggestion for an alternative solution. I cannot make the data sets any smaller, and I don't know if it counts but the text is in Japanese.
Many thanks,
