Hi  @dgibbs1 ‌, welcome to the Canvas Community.

Without seeing your Canvas instance it's a bit tricky to diagnose.

Here are some ideas for you to try:

• Check your device compatibility: What are the basic computer specifications for Canvas?
• Check your browser compatibility: Which browsers does Canvas support? Note that Internet Explorer 11 is not a supported browser.
• Try a different browser. The latest version of Chrome works great in both Windows and MacOS.
• If none of these methods solve the problem, contact Canvas Support. General instructions are in How do I get help with Canvas as a student?, but your school's support setup might vary somewhat, in which case ask your local IT Department for additional troubleshooting assistance.
• There may be some other reasons that you cannot access your courses in Canvas...some of which are outlined here: Why can't I access my Course as a student? 

Sing out if you need a hand.

Hello doug gibbs

In addition to the information provided by @Bobby Pederson, when attempting to import content from a past course, were you also the past course instructor, and are you starting in the current course and using this import method?
