Hey, welcome to the forums. :)

Classic save import brings in character data only. Active quests aren't imported, but you can resume main quest by following the "Importing Classic Saves" info in this post.

You might need to replay a few quests to catch back up, depending on where you were up to main quest.

Good luck!

Guild NPCs are only available during opening hours. If you break into a guild outside of hours (e.g. bash the door, pick the lock, or recall back inside) there won't be anyone around. This is normal and you just need to come back during their opening hours. The Mages Guild is open from 11:00am to 11:00pm.

For your spells, it's most likely the spellbook failed to import. This usually means classic save wasn't from a game fully patched to .213 before import. Spellbook data usually imports OK, but if it's not readable for any reason then importer will skip it.
