I am trying to upload a pre-made ANKI deck from REDDIT and I get a message that says my cards are being skipped, I read another post that had the same issue and it still did not resolve my issue. If you can please help me that would be great! I have attached what the message looks like!

The post-import message is explaining what is happening.

> Notes not updated …

This is a deck that you already have in your collection. But either you or the deck author has changed the note type since you last imported it, so Anki cannot update it and isn’t importing the notes as duplicates.

> Notes skipped …

You already have those exact notes in your collection. There’s nothing to import.

What version of Anki are you using [Help \> About \> Copy Debug info]? This is an older version of this screen and it’s likely with a more recent version, the import tools will give you options that will help – like merging the note types (if that’s what you to do).
