    Hello there. Our WPMU has some problems with creating a new category or tag. What happens is when you create a new category the wrong name pops up as a category. It chooses some random tag name. And everytime you edit that name it chooses another random tag name. What happened before is someone pulled accross these tables from an old install to a clean wordpress.
    * wp_1_terms
    * wp_1_term_relationships
    * wp_1_term_taxonomy
    * wp_1_links
    * wp_1_posts (includes pages)
    * wp_1_postsmeta

    I tried exporting tool and importing tool on my localhost machine and then copied the sqldump to the live site and ended up with the same results. Not sure what I can do to fix this.

    look in the wp_sitecategories table. There's the problem. importing tables from an old install and then not updating this table will case the issues you stated.
