Trying to recover a mailbox from an old Exchange 2003 server

I still have a 2003 server in my environment but all functions and mailboxes are on Exchange 2010. The only reason the 2003 server is still around is for the off chance of requiring a restoration which has now come up. I have successfully restored a
mail store to a recovery storage group but I am unable to export mailboxes from it using exmerge.
I get the following error:
[10:16:16] Copying data from mailbox 'Jacques Legare' ('LEGARE') on Server 'MAIL-SERVER' to file 'C:\TEMP\LEGARE.PST'.
[10:16:16] Error opening message store (MSEMS). Verify that the Microsoft Exchange Information Store service is running and that you have the correct permissions to log on. (0x8004011d)
[10:16:16] Errors encountered. Copy process aborted for mailbox 'Jacques Legare' ('LEGARE').
I have read many, many articles regarding the requirement for “send as” permission. I have granted send as permissions to several different domain accounts and local accounts on the Exchange server but I get the same result with all of them.
It looks like the problem may be because the mailbox no longer exists on the Exchange 2003 server.
So what do I have to do to recover this mailbox? Can I create a mailbox for this user on the 2003 server without messing up his the mailbox on the 2010 server? Instead of restoring to the recovery storage group, should I restore and overwrite the original mailbox
store? Again, will that mess up anything with the 2010 server?

0x8004011d is permission related Error.
Refer to the link below and download EXMERGE guide which has complete procedure documented.
https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/office/Guide-to-Use-Exmerge-to-fd00af49
If the mailbox that need to be restored has to be extracted from RSG is already moved to Exchange 2010 then you will not be able to run exmerge against it.
You might have to update the attribute MsExchOrigMDB on the RSG to point to Exchange 2010 Database where the mailbox is now located.
even this information is enclosed in the EMERGE Guide.

Exchange 2013 finds an old Exchange 2003 server

We have a new MS Server 2012. We are trying to install Exchange 2013
We migrated from an MS SBS Server 2003. We migrate AD over. The SBS 2003 is no longer on the network.
When I try to install Exchange 2013. I receive an error.
Error:
One or more servers in the existing organization are running Exchange 2000 Server or Exchange Server 2003. Installation can't proceed until all Exchange 2000 or Exchange 2003 are removed.
Any and all help is appreciated.

The correct supported method I believe is to ensure that you uninstall the old Exchange server from SBS as part of the migration, before you demote the SBS server and remove it from the domain, otherwise you end up with old records remaining in Active Directory.
If you still have the old SBS server available and it hasn't been demoted then have a look at the steps listed here
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg563804.aspx
If that's not possible the other option is to remove the old records via ADSIEdit as detailed here

Deletions and changes not being replicated from handset to Exchange 2003 server for one user

Good afternoon,
We have an issue where-by one of our Q10 handsets isn't replicating deletions and moving of mail back to Exchange 2003. If the user marks mail as read or deletes in Outlook, the change appears straight away on his Q10. His previous Q10 worked correctly, as do all of our other v10 devices.
Regards,
Steve

Removing the last Exchange 2003 server from an Exchange 2010 organization

We're in the process of decommissioning our last Exchange 2003 server, I have proceeded through the steps in the Microsoft guide on how to do this and have deleted both the Mailbox and Public Folder stores, removed the RUS policies for Domain and Enterprise.
All mailboxes and public folders are now homed on the new Exchange so nothing resides on the old Exchange 2003 server.
I have today inserted the Exchange 2003 media into the Exch 2003 server and chosen the remove action, but it keeps telling me;
'The component "Microsoft Exchange Messaging and Collaboration Services" cannot be assigned the action "Remove" because: - One or more users currently use a mailbox store on this server.
I checked the server by searching ADUC and also checked this KB article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/279202 and nothing shows up.
I also checked this article on someones blog but no such luck http://smtp25.blogspot.co.uk/2007/04/having-trouble-to-uninstall-exchange.html
However someone made a comment that the used an ADSIedit query (&(objectCategory=user)(msExchHomeServerName=*)) however I am unsure how to do this in ADSI.
Any advice would be gratefully received.
Thanks!

Fantastic post ... thank you so much!
I found three active directory users account using that search which never had a mailbox assigned to them. I removed the exchange attributes from each account and the uninstall proceeded
flawlessly!

Changing the Default OAB from an Exchange 2003 server to an Exchange 2010

I am in the process of decommissioning my old Exchange 2003 servers. All mailboxes have been moved over to Exchange 2010. I already have OABs and Public Folders created on the Exchange 2010 servers. Since I see the "Default Offline Address List",
which is pointing to my old Exchange 2003 server and the Default OAB is set to "True", can I just make an existing Exchange 2010 OAB the "Default OAB"? I have read that I have to perform a move on the "Default Offline Address List"
OAB. Is this required?
thanks
Noe

Configure the Exchange 2010 mailbox databases to use the Exchange 2010 OAB, and leave the Exchange 2003 databases alone. You can delete the old OAB just before taking the Exchange 2003 servers out of production. The "Default" setting
means the OAB is the one that's assigned by default when you create a new mailbox database, so yes, you should set that.

HT1473 my computer crashed and i have a new computer with new itunes, i am trying to get my music from my old iphone 4 into the library but as soon as i unplug the phone it no longer appears in the library

my computer crashed so i have a new itunes and i am trying to put my music from my old phone into itunes, it doesnt transfer only shows up when my phone is plugged in?

The iphone is not a backup/storage device. The sync is one way - computer to iphone. The exception is itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
You shouldcopy everything from your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one. This one of the main reasons it has laways been very basic to always maintain a abckup copy of your computer.

I am trying to transfer my songs from an old to computer to a new computer on iTunes with Ion products

I am trying to transfer my music from an old computer to a new one. Nothing I recorded from Ion (I have spent over 2 years on this, so I am almost in tears thinking I have wasted 2 years) is showing up on the new computer. When I put a burned CD into the old computer, it lists title and artist. When I put it in the new computer, it shows up as "unknown." It seems that I have a whole lot of unknown files I transfered, but they do not show up in Itunes. To make matters wose, what did transfer (not Ion recorded items) is there multiple times. Some things are there twice, some six times. That makes no sense.
Can someone please help?

One way is to Drag and Drop the Entire iTunes Folder from your Old Computer to an External Hard Drive...

What is the precise wording of the error message that occurs on the old iPhone when attempting to do a backup?
Are you attempting to backup via iTunes on the computer or iCloud?

I would like to recover my bookmarks from my old hard drive that I now have as an external USB drive. The old OS was Vista; the new is Windows 7.

I recently had a new hard drive installed on my laptop; this hard drive has the Windows 7 OS on it.
At the same time, I had my old hard drive mounted in an SATB enclosure so that I could use it as an external USB drive. [I stupidly did not export my bookmarks before doing all of this]
Everything seems to work fine [I can see all of the files], but I cannot find out where my bookmarks are stored on the old hard drive.
Is it possible to find them and get them transferred over to the new hard drive??
Thanks!!

Bookmarks are stored in a file called places.sqlite inside the profile folder. You can copy that file from the old profile folder into your current profile folder. For details of how to find the profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles or http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
You can recover more than just the bookmarks - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2), iphoto '11, version 9.4.2

To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.

See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1229?viewlocale=en_US - I doubt that it will solve your problem, though. You may want to post on the iPhoto forum - that's where all of the iPhoto experts hang out.
