I've had that issue before. You import the material into your material library but when you go to use it all the textures are missing, making the material straight up unusable.
I don't have a fix. However. I've noticed that I have more success if I wait longer before trying to bring the material into the slate editor. I think (and this is speculation) that the textures just haven't finished downloading yet. If you give them more time to download into your material folder then maybe that'll help. This may be wrong though as my success rate has been inconsistent. I don't know. I feel like the entire way the LiveDB works with Max needs to be reworked. I'm hoping it'll be much more intuitive and navigable in version 3.0.
