Error code is 1016 (HY000): Can't open file: 'contactlist.ibd' (errno:1)

I was reading on the net that this means the tables crashed and they say to do repair table which I did and it doesn't work.

worst case I guess I can do a system restore.

If you can restore, do that and then do a SQL dump of ALL (except the core mysql databases) of your databases. Uninstall 4 (or leave it there) and Install 5 and load the data using the dump file. Clean, safe, easy.

I may have found an easier way. The database I need is online on a web server. I could just backup that DB instead.

How can I import a .sql db???
