Partially.

1. Don't paste all the unnecessary crap (HTML-entities of Unicode chars above).
It should look more like this (just as example):

Long Name Main File Library
Short Name Main
Internal Code Prefix
Parent Directory
Access Requirements
Access to Sub-directories No
Sort Library By Directory Index Position
Clone Options
Export Areas...
Import Areas...
File Directories...

2. Now that you've pasted the library configuration, please paste the
configuration of one of the problematic directories and the relevant error
message(s).

You also said you "import the areas" but didn't clarify, import from what?
