  Have you tried using another browser or updating your browser version? http://browsehappy.com?

  Have you tried using the “WordPress” importer type rather than Xanga to see if that helps?

  Note that you must open the .zip export folder you get from Xanga and import ALL of the files included in the .zip folder individually before your import will show up on WordPress.com.

  I’ll tag this thread for a Staff follow-up. Please subscribe to the thread so you are notified when they respond and please be patient while waiting.

  thanks timethief; I’ll try the wordpress importer. I was able to open the zip file, I don’t think the files are corrupted or anything my challenge is uploading the files in the zip folder.

  Thank you for tagging my post; I’ll keep trying :)

  Hi there, I’ve just imported the xml files from Xanga to your blog, and the import was successful. Please take a look and let me know if you have any questions!
