transfer of files from yahoo #yahoo #transfer

I requested the transfer of files fro my Yahoo group to io back in November and went through the process, correctly, I believe. My files have still not appeared in io, and I can't see any way to find out whether the transfer was successful. I have been paying the premium fee in installments for 6 months but still am not seeing the messages. How can I find out if the process was successful? If we've just lost all our yahoo messages, I don't want to keep paying the premium fee. If they're going to appear, I'd like to know that so I don't cancel the premium subscription prematurely. Was there ever any kind of confirmation of successful transfer sent out? I don't remember seeing one.

Since you didn't follow the procedure, no transfer was (nor will be) done.? That required payment of a full year at once.? There would have been a notice sent when the transfer was completed if you'd done it properly.

I think at this point your yahoo may be toast.? Log into Yahoo and see if you can still see anything.? Duane was right,? I had to by premium?on an annualized basis.? But I did get the job done.? I did mine around Thanksgiving time and it turned just great.? You might try contacting Groupio support and see if they can help.? But I'm thinking that they are not doing transfer anylonger.

That wouldn't do any good.? GIO quit doing transfers in December when the information became unavailable to them after about the 15th.

Thanks, Douglas. There's nothing left on the Yahoo account. Someone in the group did save them as a couple of zip files, but I have no idea how to drop those into the io account myself. I'll contact support, as you suggest, and if they can't help, I'll probably just delete the account.?

Ah, if you do have zip files, see section 3 of this page on GMF wiki --?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Moving-to-Groups.io

You will have to do some searching through the past messages back
around early through late December, but there is someone who made it
possible to take what Yahoo saved for members and sent to them upon
request to be able to upload them. The program or script is free. You
have to have the files Yahoo sent to the member from that group. I
don't know how to do that so I can't be of any help with that. I
looked into it and thought it was too complicated.

If anyone in your group used PG Offline to archive your group's
messages, there's a program available (not free) that can upload the
messages archived by the program. I used it to upload the old Yahoo
messages for several groups. I put those messages in a subgroup so
members could join it and search through the old messages. If there is
someone who archived those messages in PG Offline, they can export the
archive and you can import it into PG Offline, which is free now. Then
buy PGO-2-GIO from personalgroupware.com and make your transfer. If
you are going to do this, let me know and we can get in touch unless
you think you can do it all yourself.

Elizabeth,

There's nothing left on the Yahoo account. Someone in the group did
save them as a couple of zip files, ...
What Frances and Donald said.

Another possibility is if you or a group member requested a Get My Data download from Yahoo then the content of that download can be uploaded or imported to your Groups.io group. By "import" I mean that you'd give the archive to Groups.io to import into your group for you, rather than you uploading the individual items.
