Re: reading exported Groups.io group data
I'm sorry, I should have been more clear in the midst of the Yahoo fiasco: I meant the exported group data from Groups.io, not Yahoo. I've changed the subject to clarify too.
G.io has an option to download various group data, which is useful especially for larger groups that can't stay in the paid 10GB or free 1GB storage limit. I tried it out for one of my groups, and requested the member list, messages, group description, and cover photo. I got files back in multiple formats, a couple JSON, an MBOX, and the photo just says FILE. So once downloaded, how do I access those files? Is there one program that can open them all, or does this require multiple programs? Thanks so much. Isis |

Yahoogroups to Groups.io message and member transfer
If we download our yahoogroups past conversations and existing members will we be able to import the conversations to groups.io?? I know there is a transfer process but if we download the yahoogroups database first then does that mean it can't be transferred to groups.io?? thanks!

Re: 2 questions about the Yahoo group transfer
Harm Selling
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýI just cleaned up all bouncing members. So the number of members reduced from 1200 to 800.
Any bouncing members are NOT transferred.? If you allow the message to go out, everyone transferred will get it.? If you do allow it to be sent, it will contain a link for them to click on to be removed from the group. ? |

Re: Paid to Move but problems
¿ªÔÆÌåÓý Hi Bruce, I've sent a half dozen or more emails with very descriptive subject lines that Mark or any support? staff should notice despite the likely deluge? happening at [email protected] inbox? I've cc'd my emails to [email protected] back to myself so it appears they are being sent. I miss the days when people used 'read receipts'. Perhaps group names could have been shuffled but that would require contact with someone at groups.io which if it ever happens I will just ask then to manually process my third payment. Re PayPal, as far as I know io only takes payments via their group upgrade page which still doesn't work for me. Thanks for reading, Charlie

Re: Paid to Move but problems
?
Hi Bruce,
Thank you for your thoughts. When I began paying to upgrade my three groups on 10/21 it was my intention to make them all paid premium groups to avoid any transfer hassles and enjoy the storage benefits offered by the then $110 yearly plan.
I began these upgrades in no particular order. Two went through fine and the third did not and still will not today even at $220. In hindsight since Marks retraction on free group limits one of my groups could have remained 'free' until the dust settled. However the one group that could have remained free is one that's aleady paid for.
The third group which must be paid due to storage limit is still in free status. When I try to upgrade it today even at $220 the transaction will not be accepted on two valid credit cards that paid for each of the two paid for groups.
Both of my banks see no reason for these sales have not to gone through. The consensus is whoever Mark at Groups.io uses for a payment processor which could be STRIPE.COM based upon domains I see flash by in my browser when trying to pay may like people to make multiple payments of the same amount ($110) to the same vendor ie: Groups.io in a short period of time as I tried on 10/21 10/22 and 10/23 and could have locked me out.
Sad part is if STRIPE.COM is where the problem lies they will only talk to the vendor Groups.IO and I cannot talk to Groups.io to ask them to? investigate or manually process my payment for the third group.
Meanwhile I have two of my three groups in the migration queue and the one group I've been begging to pay for since 10/21 languishes in free mode all the while getting further back in the migration queue since 10/21/19. I've sent detailed email(s) to [email protected] since Monday 10/21 and tried to call leaving my phone number in both cases and no response as of 6PM EDT Wed 10/23, not even a 'bot' acknowledging receipt of my inquiry.
Mark, please take my money. I am sure it will help :-)
Thanks for reading,
Charlie

Rail Scan -- If I understand you correctly, you need two Premium Yearly groups and one Basic group, and you already have that. So all you need to do is rename them. See?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Renaming-a-Group?for more details. You may have to change a letter or two in the group names, because names cannot be "reused" for awhile. You also might have to cancel and restart a couple of transfers that are already in progress, and maybe adjust some group settings. Nonetheless, this is what I would do if I were in your position. Hope this helps, Bruce |
