Problem installing Oscar with SH info

Problem installing Oscar with SH info
I'm in the process of installing Oscar and it wants to know where my SleepyHead info is. Every time I select a folder it tells me that it isn't valid info. Is it looking for a file or a folder? I have several machines and have a folder for each, so that may be a problem. I got as far as: Users/Tinkerbell/Documents/CPAP Data (the folder name I used when installing SleepyHead)/Profiles/Tinkerbell. It didn't like any of those folders, or any of the folders inside them. Now I seem to be past that option and it wants me to create a profile. I would rather get everything from SleepHead as suggested. Help!

What version of SleepyHead are you migrating from?

You need to specify the SleepyHead folder itself; all profiles in it will be migrated.  In your case, you want to specify Users/Tinkerbell/Documents/CPAP Data.

RE: Problem installing Oscar with SleepyHead info
I can't remember exactly at what point it occurred, but around that release version, SleepyHead changed its database structure.  If you had the "Backup" feature turned on, you could possibly import the raw data into OSCAR.  The backup directory will be in your data directory/Profiles/Tinkerbell/"cpap_name+serial_number"/Backup. It will be organized by year.

OK, but now I'm past that point. Should I just click on the X in the upper right corner of the screen and start over?

No. Try CPAP Importer and select the "Choose a folder". Navigate to the backup folder.

If I do that I will loose all of my settings in SleepyHead. I would rather just start over. How do I get out of the install? I don't think that it is done yet as I haven't created a profile.
