Default RE: how do i convert oscommerce database backups to oscmax?
You can't just plug a plain OSC database into MAX - it is missing MANY tables, feilds and many other changes.

Do a search for MYSQLDIFF here or else where to find out how to upgrade the DB.....

You might be better off creating a NEW store and start from scratch.

You might also be able to move just the user tables over and use easypopulate to export your items in the OLD store and use easypopulate to import it into you new one.
