csvimportmagento-1.9
ive managed to use the profiler for CSV import on magento – when i run and execute the file i get this
So the data processes 100% (i dont think images are crucial for products going live) but the new products do not import despite processing.
When i run the CSV against the regular import and data check, i get this:
Column names: "" are invalid
this is a screenshot of the data i am trying to import, i want to keep column headers if possible:

Your CSV is not formatted correctly.
Do not separate it by "Tab" and "Comma", just comma. Steps 3 & 4 seem to be unnecessary (I have never need to do those steps in 5 years). I'm wondering what step broke your CSV to make it look like what it looks like now.
I edited your file correctly formatted it. Give this one a try. https://www.dropbox.com/s/g89jcrycfzhqbnf/product.csv
Easiest way is to create a product in magento , then go to System >> import/Export >> Dataflow Profile menu. Export a CSV from there & then use it as sample.

From my experience I have never had any luck with using the dataflow profiles. I use the normal import with Entity type of Products and Append complex data options set. Your CSV must have headers in it.
You can try this sample below to get you started.
