I have a question that I hope you will take time out to answer:

Once all of the information is transferred - is it possible to add to the Y360 page and create another new xlm file and import it into Wordpress with it just picking up the new entries? Or will the previously transferred entries be duplicated?

Please advise at your earliest convenience.

Thanks in advance.

Yipee!!!!

I *finally* got it to work after many many tries over many many months.

My problem was simple. I was not giving the program enough time to do it’s thing. There is no indicator as to whether it is working or not and I thought it had stalled/crashed — but found out after checking to see what “Processes” were running that is was just very slow to work on my PC.

I can’t thank you enough for this miracle progream. I will spread the good word.

Now I just have to (1) delete the posts that I had added manually and (2) add all of my photos to Wordpress that I had on Y360 and I am good to go.

Any advice you can give on transferring the photos would be greatly appreciated.

I have tried this out weekly since I first dl the program in July but it just doesn’t work for me. Has anyone here been successful with this program? Perhaps you could help me out in determining what is going wrong for me.

Thank You

Thanks for providing this bit of software. When I tried using it on my blog, it ran for several minutes and then generated this error:

System.Net.WebException: Unable to connect to the remote server —> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond 68.142.227.189:80

A second run produced the same results. I’d appreciate any help you can give on this. Thanks!

When I try to use this program, it eventually gives the error “The operation has timed out”. If I click details, this is at the top of the error box:

I have a lot of blog entires (currently 198). Could that be why?

Hi, I was able to convert my Y360 blog to .xml file using your converter. It was amazingly easy to use. One problem though … I wanted to upload that xml file to “Blogger” and not wordpress. Blogger had some issues to upload it. Is there reason why this might be so?
Thanks
