Tones from POD HD PRO to 500x

[Skynnyrd]

I have just purchased a POD 500x and already own a POD HD Pro rack unit.  My question is this and I have looked everywhere for this but why does the 500x not recognize files created on the HD Pro as I wish to take the tones I have created in the studio and transfer them to the 500x. I see that the extensions are different but there has to be a way, I even tried changing the extension but alas that did not work.  

 

Looking for an answer;

Thank you so much man that is sweet and really easy to use, although it still makes me wonder why Line6 just didn't do this as units except for the X are the same.

Life is now easier.

Save yourself the time. Just load the files into your HD500. 

Only convert the ones that give you a problem. 

 

Even the ones that give you a problem, some of them can be loaded into EDIT in offline mode, and can be edited so that it does work. 

I.E., when I have a patch that doesn't work. I open in offline mode and remove something like a volume pedal or fx loop (because I do not use either). And then save the file. It should then work.

Actually, the four rack/x and pedal/x devices are all very similar. 

But the 300/400 and the 500 are way different from each other. Much as the others are all different.
