It appears there was some corruption in both of my Macs. I zeroed out the drive in my iMac and restored the drive to factory new then updated the OS. files import effortlessly. I suspect there is a conflict with some other program, perhaps even VLC. Once I am finished with my current projects (due before Christmas!) I will zero out my Mac Pro and reinstall everything. Not looking forward to that!
