unity3d camera scene

One of my team members just cloned my unity project which was working fine on my pc(unity 5.5) where as it is displaying "Display 1 no cameras rendering" error in the scene on my teammate's pc(unity 5.4).

We are using a git repository and this is the first time we have encountered this problem.

Another thing we just noticed is that there are place holders for all the objects that were part of hierarchy(on my system). For some reason there names are not getting displayed, but when when you select the area, something seems to be selected.

Can someone please help us solve the issue.

Take a moment and look at the words in bold. You can't do that.

You shouldn't try to open a Unity project made with higher Unity version with lower Unity version. This applies to most software too. What's happening is that Unity added new feature and changed some of Unity's binary saved data in Unity 5.5 that Unity 5.4 doesn't have.

When you load a project from Unity 5.5 in Unity 5.4, it won't be able to understand those new features leading to weird behavior such as the one he's having.

Your teammate will have to update to Unity 5.5 in order to load the Project made with Unity 5.5.
