Unable to migrate portal content :-(

Question

I want to move 2 iViews and a Authorization role from ABC System to XYZ System.
I found out that there seem to be 2 basic ways, I do not know enough about.
I went to the NetWeaver Enterprise Portal of the source System ABC -> System administration -> Transport packages -> Export. I do a right-click on the Folder "etcppp" create a new package, save it and download it to my personal computer.
In the second step I go to the NetWeaver Enterprise Portal of the target system ABC -> System administration -> Transport packages -> Import. I import it and find the package in the content-tree, but it does not unpack Where is my mistake ?
So I startet my second try:
I went to the NetWeaver Enterprise Portal of the source System ABC -> System administration -> content & actions -> Export and created a nice XML File. Up to now I do not understand why there seem to be 2 ways and 2 different file formats but I thought to give it a try. I downloaded the XML without any errors.
In the second step I go to the NetWeaver Enterprise Portal of the target system ABC -> System administration -> content & actions BUT it simply does not open! I startet the engine and the system new, but the branch stays hidden. What can I do ?
Please let me also know if there are any other possibilities to transport Portal Content.
Thanks in advance and Best Regards
