When I try to import a "3ds" file that I exported from max or I
downloaded from the internet to 3d max it appears without smoothing.

I tried to set smoothing groups to the polygons and add the smooth modifier to the model and it stays without smoothing.

even trying to add mesh smooth will not work.

so can someone help me with this?

I have the same sorts of problems, which is not a lot of help, but at least you know you are not alone.

I tend to weld my vertexes and set the smoothing angle again, although usually just welding the vertexes fixes things, so try that first. I don't know max very well, but if you don't know how to do that I can help, it's really straightforward.
