I managed to get the (öäå) characters to import using both Charles's Emacs suggestion and a simpler program called Encoding Master. However, when imported, both of the new UTF-8 files ended up putting both the Q&A into the Q section, vice-versa, and doubled up entries as well. Basically a mess. So after 2 days of trying, I have to give up.
Since many, if not most people, interested in using Mnemosyne would probably want to use it to study languages, it actually does seem important that Mnemosyne can import foreign characters directly into the program without going through what I've gone through...to no avail :( My iPhone App "Flashcards Deluxe" imports both .rtf & .xls with foreign characters flawlessly without having to "Save As" any special file format. I wish Mnemosyne could do the same since it has a far superior repetition rating system (1 through 5 instead of just Yes&No). I realize you can't make the changes I'm requesting over night, but I hope you can create a new update that accepts .rtf & .xls in the near future? :) BTW, Mnemosyne would make a fantastic iPhone App as well. Any plans for that? Could it be sync-able to the Desktop App?
