Brand new to this and I have a small card collection but I don't know how to add them to my card collection on iMtG. Any and all help would be appreciated.
The only way I know of to do it is to go through and add them manually. Oh, and welcome!
What I'm doing is add the cards to "my precious" binder by going to the card database, searching for the card, then add the edition I have.
You can swipe the bar under the card until you see the "my precious" binder, then tap the numbers.
If you want to add a deck, you can also do so through this method, just use the lower bar with decks.

I know about importing decks from Decked Builder format from your Dropbox, but that's just me ;)

App supports .dec format right?

Yes, and .dec format is based on Apprentice format. Decked Builder's extension of this format is also supported.
Imports don't ever work for me.

When I'm finished with them, they always work for me. All I need to do is to put some effort into making my file right ;)
How do you make the file any better?
I would have to google for the details of the format for you as I do not have them at hand. For purposes of iMtG these were reverse engineered as no spec exists.

The other way I know, and it is not just me, is to download the deck from link in Gathering, this very forum. You do not seem to know an awful lot ;)
Lol but that isn't building a deck, that's testing someone else's.
In Magic Binders, you can export any binder to CSV by emailing it to yourself. It will teach you the format your CSV file needs to be in, when you are preparing your collection for import via iTunes desktop app.

Almost as 'building a deck' is not the same as 'importing collection'? ;)
Exactly. You can only get decks like this, not binders.

The most efficient way is to grab this app, my friend: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/imtg-ii/id736075015?mt=8

I gotta agree it's a great app, but wasn't the question how to import the collection into the app?? Interested myself since I have two large boxes of cards still to import into my precious..
Thanks for all the help. I did manually add 1 card and had to leave it to do some other things and when I open up the deck now I do not see any way to add cards. The plus signs and camera are not there. Just my 1 lone card with no way to add more that I can see. I did pay for the full ride so I should be able to use the camera. Having some trouble getting started but this is gonna be cool once it is working

To the left of the cog sign (top right corner) there is an icon. Tag that to enter edit mode. Then you can add new cards.
Thanks. I see it and that works. Hopefully I am up and running

Any questions, don't be afraid to ask. Odds are any of us had the same issues before and can help you out.

At the time of asking the question, Wind Rider had title of Member, which indicates someone who is accessing this forum via non-iOS device, very old iMtG version, or a bug. Now he is a Boss, therefore my suggestion was successful, or something else ;)
