    So I’m trying to back up my tumblr blog and sideblogs but every time I try to import them the application tells me to wait for the running import to finish, but ther are no imports are running. I tried importing one of my smaller blogs that only had 11 posts but the import was taking 5+ hours so I tried restarting by canceling it and starting over, but now none of my blogs will import because I apparently have to wait for whatever import is running to finish when but of them are downloading so I’m not sure why it’s telling me this.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there,

    I’ve reset the Tumblr importer for your site so you can try again.

    If it seems to take long, please be patient and don’t try cancelling the process yourself – we’re experiencing a high volume of imports from Tumblr at the moment causing a backlog of pending imports in our system. The imports are being run in the order they are submitted.

    If the new import doesn’t complete within 24 hours, please let us know.
