What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.did not import old decks after update.
2.When I try to start my .anki deck or import it program says it is not a valit .apkg
file. All my decks have always been .anki
3.Kant start any of the .anki decs and have no idea what the .apkg file is.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect to see all my decks that I was studdying to be there after the update. What
I get is a new anki with no decks. 

Does it happen again every time you repeat the steps above? Or did it
happen only one time?
Every time.

What version of AnkiDroid are you using? (Decks list > menu > About > Look
at the title)
On what version of Android? (Home screen > menu > About phone > Android
version)
I now have the new 2.0 Don't know what the version what that I had before. But I had
it set in googleplay to automaticaly update. I assume its predisessor.

If it is a crash or "Force close" and you can reproduce it, the following
would help immensely: 1) Install the "SendLog" app, 2) Reproduce the crash,
3) Immediately after, launch SendLog, 4) Attach the resulting file to this
report. That will make the bug much easier to fix.
It does not crash. It just didn't bring over the decks I was using before.

Please provide any additional information below.
I have spent now 3.5 hours trying to get my old decks working. And I am vary unhappy.
I can not understand why they would not make the update in a way that would just bring
over all the settings and data of the older version of Anki. Any why wold it not open
the old files .anki whey the previous version would do it every time. I also keep the
files on my MicroSd card that way I could study at school on there computers with the
wondows version of anki. That still works just fine. It opens that files no problem.
but now it does not work anymore on my Azus Transformer prime tablet.

All the decks (and their statistics) on my phone disappeared.  I had originally gotten
the cards from Quizlet, which does not appear to be an option any more.

Please refer to the official upgrade instructions on how to get your decks back in the
version.
http://code.google.com/p/ankidroid/wiki/Upgrading?wl=en

You can't download decks from Quizlet, but if you enter Menu->Get Shared Decks, you
can download shared decks from the Anki repository.

The decks I created myself I did not download them from anywhere. I will check out the
link and try and figure out how to upgrade my anki decks to anki2. Thanks for your
help.
