Problems with MIDI

Hi,

I could use some assistance with some MIDI file problems I'm having when using 2 Magix programs.

1). I use Music Maker Premium 2021 and Acid Pro 10 Suite. I'm working with a group of MIDI files that cannot be read by either program. These MIDI files were purchased, so I contacted the seller, received new downloads and reloaded them. Still not working with the same error message that says, "The file format of: C:\Users...(file name and location) cannot be read by Magix Music Maker. With Acid Pro I can't add the MIDI File to a track when I drag/drop or double click, but there is no error message.

2). Another group of MIDI files I own seem to be compressed, there are no written music bars that appear (blank) until halfway or three quarters through the clip. I've read that there is a fix for this, but I want to make sure I'm using a safe solution. My PC is a newer (2021) HP 64GB RAM, 1.5TB, core i7, Windows 10

If anyone can help, I'd greatly appreciate it.
