First, the extension build changed at MD2015. So for MD2015 get the extension 
here:
https://github.com/stant/mdcsvimporter2015/releases/
for MD2014 and some earlier get it here:
https://github.com/stant/mdcsvimporter/releases/

for a manual on how to use it I have one with MD2015. It's old but helpful:
How-to-use-mdcsvimporter-beta-16.zip

Did you define a "reader"? So it knows what fields you are importing?

Basics: 

Define a reader (in Manage readers)

Any field you define is required, unless you pick the option that it can be 
blank.

Then to use it:

Pick a file

Pick a reader.    Or vice versa

(...)  is browse file

Other buttons help you find a working reader if you picked a file,

Or find a file if you picked a reader

Hit preview (it tests if your file can be parsed)

It will not let you process a file unless it has a reader that can parse your 
file.

Pick account to import into

Hit process

Stan - I am not part of MD by the way.
