Thank you, thank you,thank you! I have been struggling with this for 1 month. Both 'osmconvert' and 'osmconvert --fake-version' worked. I only use .pbf because I found this website for OSM downloads: http://download.geofabrik.de/north-america.html is there a website to get similar sized o5m map downloads?

Hi Greg.
You can use osmconvert which should be able to read the output of splitter, e.g.
osmconvert 12360002.osm.pbf -o=12360002-josm.osm.pbf
Sorry, was too quick. You probably need option --fake-version for osmconvert: osmconvert --fake-version 12360002.osm.pbf -o=12360002-josm.osm.pbf
I think that's the reason for the problem: JOSM doesn't like input in pbf format that doesn't have the meta info (version, author etc)
I never cared about that because I use o5m format and an o5m plugin that I wrote once for JOSM. It is not in the plugins repo, but I may try again to add it there.
A 3rd alternative is to use --output=xml in splitter, the files in that format are no problem in JOSM, but may decrease performance in splitter and mkgmap.
