 * Hello,
 * I have a large number of images in my Media Library I would like to Export/Import
   to another site. The Import failed but it didn’t say why. On my first try, I 
   selected all of the Media mages. On my second try, I selected only 1 month of
   the Media mages. Both failed. How should I proceed? Thanks.

 * Hello there!
 * What process did you follow to import the images? Did you get any error messages
   even if it doesn’t explain the reason why the import failed?
 * If you have only images in your media file, you can try the following for the
   export. On the left menu of your dashboard > Tools > Export > Media then select
   the range date and click on Download Export File. [https://cloudup.com/ccqIhc_qLE6](https://cloudup.com/ccqIhc_qLE6)
 * Then you will use this .xml file to import the images: Tools > Import > WordPress
   Run Importer > Choose file (the file you exported) > Upload file and import >
   Submit.

 * I hope this helps, let us know how it goes!
