How can I get my email from Outlook on the PC to Mac's Mail on Lion?

I am trying to move years worth of emails from Outlook on a PC to a new MacBook Air. The database of emails is about 5GBs. I can find different settings to export the emails in PC formats, but not a single one listed in the Lion version of Mail. It can import from Mac Mail, Thunderbird and Entourage, but not Outlook. Is there a way to export the files and import them on to the Mac that anyone has had success with?

Follow the link in the post
Also, another way is to transfer via IMAP:
Moving Email from PC Outlook to Apple Mail
"An easy (and free) way to transfer email from Outlook (Windows) to Mail (Mac) is to use an IMAP account (e.g. Gmail) as an intermediary between the two. It's simple and reliable but can be a bit slow for large amounts of email. Expect over an hour per Gigabyte."
For other alternatives, Google is your friend

  • Have set Yahoo Mail as my mailto yet when I try to "send a link" I get a Yahoo sign in page and am then taken to my inbox. How can I get an email box to send the link?

    I can't get Firefox to send either photos out of Picasa or "send a
    link" using my Yahoo!Mail option. Have set Yahoo as my default
    and have set Yahoo as my mailto using tools/apps. When I
    use "send a link" I am sent to my Yahoo sign in page and it takes
    me to my inbox. How can I get a blank email form to come up?

    Typing in additional text seems to get the job done.  This seems to be a feature of the latest IOS update, I have never had the problem before the last update.
    I use the box with the arrow just to the left of the URL block at the top of the page to send myself links to pages of interest.  Adding the extra text seems like a pointless step, but it does work.
    Thanks.

  • How can I get my music from a digital book onto my MAC?

    I purchased an album from iTunes using my iPad and now that I want to add it to my daughter's Nook from Mac its not giving me the music to download only the Digital book. How can I get my music and add to my library?

    It sounds to me like the option to  "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library" was turned off in the iTunes -> Advanced preferences when you added the tracks from the flash drive, so iTunes left them on the flash drive rather than copying them to your computer's hard drive. Get Info on any of the tracks and see where iTunes thinks they should be located. If they're pointing to the flash drive, check that preference.
    If that is indeed the problem, you'll need to fix the location. You can do this track by track if there aren't too many, but if there are a number of them, it'll be easiest to remove them from the iTunes library, fix the above-mentioned preference, and add the tracks again. Or you can just keep the flash drive connected to your computer, but that's probably not ideal.
    Regards.

    thank you

    That seems to be supported only up through 10.5.7 and probably needs Rosetta for it to run.
    Rosetta is not included in 10.7.
    If this is the case, you may need to partition your hard drive, install Windows on it, and use that partition for your work.

  • How can I get sent email from my BB reflected in sent mail on Gmail?

    I use Gmail, custom Google Apps email, and a Sprint BlackBerry email. Strangly, if I send email from the GApps email address, I can later see that when I log in and view the Sent Mail folder. I don't see that happening with Gmail. Is there anything special I need to do to fix it? 
    "If it ain't broke, shoot it with a .44 until it is. Then get it replaced."

    On your device at options > advanced > Service Books, delete the two instances of that gmail address, and then, With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot.
    Now, open your email setup or setup wizard on the device and delete that gmail address.
    Then, set it back up again, same location.
    You should notice a change now and the reconcile of your gmail sent messages to the server.

  • Can anyone help - my mail on my ipad will not connect to the server. My internet access is fine. How can I get my email to connect to the server?

    My ipad will not connect tot he server when trying to access my mail. This has been happening since last Sunday. Some have said it is due to the latest software update. I am able to connect to the internet.
    I am not having this issue on iPhone.
    I checked all the settings, the wireless router in my house and at work.
    I have completed a hard reset of the device.
    I had our IT guy at work look at it.
    He said to contact Apple....
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks!

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • How can i get my email to go into the in box instead of all mail or archive box

    My incoming e mail does not appear in my inbox but does appear in All Mail or Archive boxes ,.
    how can i put this right

    Hello!
    Please check in the Mail preferences if you have any mail rules activated: "mail > Preferences > Rules"
    If so, uncheck the rules and test if your issue is resolved in the future (perhaps by sending yourself a few mails)

  • How can I get my music from my ipod to my new mac book air??

    I bought a new macbook and can not figure out how to move my music from my ipod to the new computer?

    Hi.
    You will need some sort of third-party software to 'drag' your music out of your iPod.
    In order to make sure people don't use their iPods as giant portable disks to share 1000's of songs, they haven't made a function to extract your music from the device.
    As said, you'll need some sort of software to do so.
    I hope this was helpful.

  • How can I get my iPhone to let me know when I get an email from Outlook?

    How can I get my iPhone to let me know when I get an email from Outlook?

    You don;t get an e-mail from outlook.
    Outlook is just an e-mail client, just like the mail app on the iphone.
    Your e-mail comes into your e-mail account, which you access from both Outlook and the Mail app.
    What are you trying to accomplish?

    Hi there Lindlylou!
    I have an article here that can explain a little more about the feature you are referencing, called AirPrint:
    AirPrint Basics

    That article will contain information about which printers are AirPrint compatible, as well as information about how to use AirPrint on your iPad. Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

    I add my comcast email to the mail on a iMac running Maverick. It downloads all my emails from there. How do i get my email to delete of the the server

    Go to Mail Preferences>Accounts, click the '+' button below the list of accounts and insert the settings, username and password as instructed. Some account types can be set up automatically as soon as Mail knows the emails address (because the server settings are built in), in other cases you will have to get them from your ISP.
