Thanks for you Help Arc and Yacob, Looking better but not perfect.
I manged to download 2.7.0 then import all the tiiddlers from my main tiddlywiki, auto save occurs, then import recent tiddlers (exported when I could not save my tiddly wiki) - I do this all before I reload the tiddlyWiki because once I do that I seemed to loose the import facility. Once again I could not save my tiddly wiki after a period of use for no clear reason. I have since discovered that the import tool fails to work when I attempt to select the import file using the "..." file dialogue. However If I paste the file name in, imports work. But once again I can't save the tiddlywiki. I am using http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#ImportTiddlersPlugin 4.6.2 Any further suggestions or background appreciated.
