Can we back-track a little here, as the first screen-shot seems to be 
for OFX/QFX files.

When you first click on File->Import, are you saying that the QIF... 
menu is grayed-out?  If so, let's back-track a bit more.  When you open 
KMYMoney for the first time, you should see a box headed "Start with one 
of the following activities... .  If at that time, you try to import a 
qif file, you can't because you haven't yet created an account into 
which to import it.  Instead, click on 'Get started and setup my 
accounts'.  Follow through that wizard and you'll get to the point where 
you've created a checking and other accounts.  You should now be able to 
import your qif file.

However, this last stage sounds simple, but it rarely is as there are 
QIF files and there are QIF files and...  I think you get the message. 
You may get lucky, but you may have to adopt a step-by-step approach to 
the import, and import smaller chunks from Quicken.

However, let's know which steps you followed and what the results were.

We'll come back to the QFX issue later.  However, looking at your second 
screen-shot, I notice that the file extension is 'qxf' rather than 
'qfx'.  This may or may not be relevant.
