Cannot import any cards

Post by WillCrockett »

First off just wanted to say that this program is very cool - thanks for making it available.

I configured Push2Run on my Windows 10 Machine using dropbox according to the setup document and the calculator test is working properly.
However, I haven't been able to import any additional cards. I have verified that the .p2r extension is associated with Push2Run.
I'm mostly trying to get
turn_off_monitor.p2r
(584 Bytes) Downloaded 144 times
imported but even the Restart example card cannot be imported either.
Here's the session log for those two attempts:

2021-10-24 16:45:53.158 - Push2Run version 3.6.1.0 started

I'd appreciate any help, thank you.

Oddly, the file you have attached imports just fine for me.

However, you will get the message which you are seeing in the log if the card has already been imported in successfully in the past and is still in your database.

If rather than doing a double click on the file, or dragging and dropping it, you instead go to Main window and select File - Import and then find the card and import it, you will see a pop-up window with more info saying that the card is already in your database if that is the case.

Can you please take a look and see if this applies in your case?
