Hi Mario,
I'm happy to answer your questions. There's a workaround to let you import libraries again:
Step 1: Go to C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Autodesk\Autodesk Fusion 360\Electron\<userid>\lbr
Step 2: Delete libraries.db
Step 3: Re-launch the Fusion and library importer notification will show up.
HOWEVER, doing this would lose all your "In Use" libraries meaning if you have a large collection of in-use libraries, you may need to add them back manually. Otherwise, if you really want to migrate Eagle libraries to Fusion, you can in-use them and create managed libraries, respectively. Then you should also be able to see them in Fusion.
Please let me know if you have further questions.

Hi BouyuanLi,
Thanks for your answer but unfortunately I can't test it
I don't have anything on the folder you indicated:
I meade a search on Electron folder for "libraries.db" and I found it on C:\Users\mjfbr\AppData\Local\Autodesk\Autodesk Fusion 360\Electron\6P8FNTU355V5\lbr
Shall I delete it?
Thank you

Hi Mario,
Sorry for not making it clear. "6P8FNTU355V5" on your computer is the <userid> I meant. And you're in the correct directory.
Deleting libraries.db will let you import library again. But be aware of the caution I mentioned in the previous reply.
Hope this helps.

Hi @mario.brizida ,
I'm glad this worked for you, but you shouldn't have to go through all that. Try using the import functionality in the Library Manager that might be easier 🙂
I'm on a Mac. How and where do I find "import functionality in the Library Manager" in order to import my library dot io, in Fusion 360?
Hi Jeff,
If you try to open shared libraty, you will be prompted if you want to edit it, and if yes you should record it in your Fusion environment. After that you have your "local" editable libary, that could be syncronized with original library.io
Hi Jeff,
You can always filter the libraries you want or need to use.
On Fusion Electronics, on PCB or Schematics go to "Library" and then to "Open Library Manager "
There you have all your libraries, and you can turn on or off the libaries as you wish.
Hope was useful.
