# XML Import HELP!!!!!

 * I have been periodically exporting the XML file in case something happened to
   my blog through a problem with my hosting service. Well something happened and
   when I went to the IMPORT for the first time, I am informed the size limit is
   2MB but my XML file is 15,396KB and apparently it won’t allow me import the file.
   This is several years worth of material that I have stored on my PC but apparently
   no way to import/install back on my blog. Is there any alternate method of doing
   this? Please email me at [saints@nettally.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/xml-import-1/saints@nettally.com?output_format=md)
   with help. I desperately need it. If all that material is lost due to the size
   limit WordPress imposes (which I don’t understand) than I may as well quit. I’m
   upset over this as it is.
