The pop/imap keeps giving me error messages and when I download all of my data to a backup on google takeout, i cant figure out how to import it back in.

Google Takeout is export only, it does not have a import/restore function.

But it exports to a format which can be used by many e-mail clients.  So, in theory, you could use IMAP to upload the message to Gmail.  But (if you can get it to work) GYB is designed to do both backup and restore.
