<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'>Thanks folks for your
suggestions. Well this is what I have discovered. I checked that the file
extension was showing and I found that I could import via the file import and
drag and drop if the extension was .jpg but not if it was .jpeg. Also even if I
have the extension showing under OS X it doesn't show up in Windows, though
this doesn't affect the importing. Anyway I'm underway again which is cool. <o:p></o:p></p>

think it s because Xerte being Win based used the registered file type
extensions to determine what media is being imported.<br>
<br>
Mac files have a resource fork embedded which tells the OS what the file type
is, so Mac files by default have no extension.<br>
Without the extension, Xerte can't tell what the media type is, and hence which
import dialog to display.<br>
<br>
Interestingly, Import Media works for me, but the drag/drop doesn't seem to do
anything. I have a page highlighted and drag the .jpg onto it, but no dialog
(nor is it hiding ;-). <span class=apple-converted-space> </span><br>
