Importing data from Diving log 6.0 into MacDive

Post by HTdecodiver »

Until now I used Diving log 6.0 on a windows computer. I want to import the data from Diving log 6.0 into MacDive on my iMac.
I have tried all kinds of formats (UDCF, UDDF and SQLite). With SQLite I get the best results, but a lot of data get lost.
When I import the data into MacDive then the following data is missing:
There is no gear registered.
From the dive sites the data of GPS, body of water, water type, difficulty, altitude and notes is missing.
From the dives the data of repetitive dive, surface interval, air temp, dive type, dive operator, gear and notes is missing.

I have almost 1000 dives so it is a lot of work to add al the missing data by hand.

Can someone help me to import all the data into MacDive?

Kind regards,
Fred

SQLite should be the best choice (.db).

Unfortunately things will not be 100% compatible, though a lot of what you mention should be available. Please email the file to support and I will take a look.

Thanks
