Import Broken?

I can't obtain any results for imports, even for a small one of 100 books.

>1 JoeB1934: The processes that run the imports are turned off right now due to some issues we had over the weekend. We are working on getting them back up.

The imports should be working now.

It is working perfectly on my account JFBCore.

However, on JoeB1934 it is really strange. Even though I delete all records in JoeB1934 when I attempt to import a csv file of 2129 it tells me there are 857 records still there. I say to update the data on the ones still there and I end up with a library of 1121 books. It is like the records are sort of there and sort of not there.

Would it be possible for someone with access to that library truly do a delete of every book in JoeB1934.

OOPS In another attempt to import I received much better results, so ignore my request until I do more experimentation.
