don't RESTORE .. use the IMPORT KEYS tool instead

migration guide: docs.bitshares.eu/migration

Not migrating from v1 to v2
I already migrated to v2 using webwallet bitshares.org/wallet
I used the webwallet backup from bitshares.org/wallet and gave me .bin file
then I use different browser to open the bitshares.openledger.info
then Existing Account > Import backup, I selected the .bin file
Nothing happen.

What I mean is the backup file created from bitshares.org/wallet is not properly importing in bitshares.openledger.info
Oh .. that worked like a charm for me ..
This is what happens here:

If I provided the passphrase it would import the backup

I backed up my webwallet from chrome (bitshares,org), and tried to restore it in firefox webwallet (bitshares.openledger.info)
It recognized the file, it says Ready to Restore, and I clicked the the RESTORE button and nothing happen.
Does the backup is different from each site?

and also, why in bitshares.org, the link for webwallet is the openledger.info instead of bitshares.org/webwallet?
