Quote - I don't know what DS has to do with Importing from Poser to Carrara, must be missing a post.

Have you tried creating your figure with all the clothes and props and save the whole thing as a new CR2? Import that Cr2? Just something different to try.

You might want to report this to eovia. It could be a bug.
DS was mentioned as a program that can utilize poser magnets, carrara did have problems with them I believe it doesn't support them, unless this has changed. Could be a problem with certain clothing or other items. Yes any cr2 can be imported into carrara, often people do this.

No need to think outside the box....
