Import VMPlayer Virtual Worlds

$

I have a number of virtual machines which were created on a Ubuntu Linux system with VMPlayer. Recently, I moved my development to a MacBook running Yosemite and have downloaded the 30 day trial version of Fusion 7 to determine if that will be sufficient to purchase or whether I need the more expensive Fusion Pro 7.

 

Fusion 7 installed very easily but I cannot find a way to import the existing VMPlayer virtual machines into Fusion.

 

When I access the "Import An Existing Virtual Machine", menu pick, I can navigate to the folder which contains the VMPlayer virtual machine but nothing is selectable.

 

The documentation for Fusion 7 mentions VMPlayer very little at all.

 

This was possible with earlier versions of Fusion since a former co-developer would do this very frequently.

 

Is this type of import possible with Fusion 7 or is this a case of features stripped out during the trial period?

 

Thanks.

 

I did submit a ticket to the VMWare support group which was rejected since I have yet to purchase the product.  I do not want to purchase this if I cannot import a number of these older virtual worlds.
