I've been thinking about this. I teach in a university with 16 installations of MC 8.4 on Macs in my classroom. Students have their own network accounts and we also have one generic local account if the network accounts can't be used for some reason. We have a large partition on the internal drive of the iMacs that students use for their work. I've seen two odd things in the last few days:
1) A student worked for 90 minutes, MC crashed and there was absolutely nothing in the Attic. I'd heard of this happening but never seen it.
2) Three students attempted to make new projects, using the 'External' button in folders on the second partition that had been made under a different Mac log-in. The projects were not created. Nothing. Blank space in the project list. I've never seen this before. By making a new folder on the non-boot partition under the current log-in, the projects were created correctly and work continued.
So, my thoughts are some weird permissions issue with 8.4. Can I suggest that you make a new Mac account with admin privileges, log in and see if your import works?
