Xrmtoolbox Data Transporter

I am attempting to transfer some records from a sandbox environment to a Live environment using Data Transporter. I want to preserve their contact IDs from the sandbox and the GUIDs. My Fetchxml query shows 55 records but when I preview, there is only one record. Transfer Data publishes the one record to Live successfully. What am I missing here? Note, Read only fields like contactid are not available for mapping in the transporter. 

The one record shown in preview was created the way I want it. But how do I get others to be created in Live

    What I got from your issue declaration in the production environment is that there are 54 contact records already existing, but you would like to import their data, including the sandbox GUIDs.
    In case of that as per my understanding, I think you need to remove contact records, on live environment,then you can query your data and try to import data from the sandbox, and it dynamically migrates records with sourced GUIDs
