I see that you got the issue resolved, but I just wanted to point out that
getting a 'Not Responding' prompt from Windows doesn't necessarily mean the
program is dead. The program could just be too busy to respond *at this time*.

FYI.

Cannot import passwords, etc. when installing 2.0

2009-11-21 Thread Serge Popper
I've downloaded 2.0 and attempted to install it twice. Both times the 
same thing happened.  When 2.0 starts up the first time it prompts me to 
import the items from 1.18  I tell it to go ahead and both times it just 
froze.  Will someone please tell me how to fix this problem?

Thanks,
Serge

When I have installed 2.0, the import tool worked in all cases. 
However, I have a very complex mail/news profile, so the wizard appeared 
to stall when importing the mail. It took some minutes, but it did 
complete successfully.


How long are you waiting before aborting?

Fifteen minutes on the first attempt and over 30 minutes on the second 
attempt. As a matter of fact, when I clicked on the screen, after thirty 
minutes, a screen came up which said not responding.  Think I should 
wait longer?

No. I would think 30 minutes should do.

I suppose you could try limiting the data to be migrted to that which 
you really need to be transferred, but I suppose the next answer will be 
manual transfer of the data.  I hope someone else has a better answer.

Thanks Lee.  I tried again, before you responded, and it worked this 
time.  Took exactly 26 minutes and now it is all there.  Appreciate your 
input.
