A Question about contacts that are in the history

Hi, I am a novice in the Mac world and have a 2 part questions.
1- I deleted my bosses Pop Account and lost all his email. I used File Salvage to get them back. No problem I found all 3235 of them. I cannot figure out how to get them back into the Mac Mail program? I tried hiring two Mac companies and they still could not do it. Any suggestions?
2- When I re-created his Pop account in the Mac Mail program all his contacts were still there in the history. So when you start to type the persons name it brings up the whole name and Email address. Where can I find the hidden historyfile with all the information in it so I can import them into Entourage. Even if I could not import them I would like to be able to print them out and wwill type them in individually myself. I really need to make my boss happy again. Any Suggestions

Hi Combreeze2.
I cannot figure out how to get them back into the Mac Mail program?
Mail doesn’t import individual messages, only entire mailboxes. In order to import .emlx messages in Mail, they must be organized as if they were in an .mbox mailbox, i.e. they must be in a Messages folder within an .mbox folder. You may create a folder called Recovered.mbox, then a Messages folder within this folder, then put the .emlx files within the Messages folder, then import that.
In Mail, do File > Import Mailboxes, choose Mail for Mac OS X as the data format, and follow the instructions. Note that Mail wants you to select the folder that contains the mailboxes to be imported (i.e. the folder where the .mbox folders to be imported reside), not the .mbox folders themselves nor the Messages folders within them.
Given the circumstances, however, there could be something wrong with one or more of the recovered messages and that might cause the import to fail. If that’s the case, you may try organizing the recovered messages in several smaller mailboxes and try to identify the messages that Mail has trouble with. Alternatively, you may try using emlx to mbox Converter or Emailchemy to convert the .emlx files to standard mbox format, then import that in Mail as Other.
Where can I find the hidden historyfile with all the information in it
Window > Previous Recipients
I don’t think there is a way to print that info or import it into another application without adding them to Address Book as regular contacts first.

  • Had to change my Apple ID because the original email address is no longer valid.  How do I change the iCloud user name on iMac?  I found instructions about signing out of iCloud and signing back end.  It asks questions about contact, etc.

    Had to change Apple ID due to email address no longer valid.  Trying to change id for icloud...saw direction online about signing out of icloud and signing back in...when it ask questions about contacts, photos, etc. being deleted how do I answer those?  That just sort of freaks me out.

    For the ones that give you an option, select the option you want (keep on the Mac or Delete). For the ones that are simply warning you, click on Delete from Mac.
    They will all come back when you sign back on, since all you did was change your existing Apple ID to a new email address. It's the same iCloud account, just with a different name.
    It's the only way to get your updated ID signed onto iCloud.

  • Method needed to identify Contacts that are not valid from the Comp Screen

    Problem
    My Company has 65k contacts in the system, we do not delete contacts that are no longer at company, as when we buy data our data in some cases will be more up to date that the third party data available on the market. This then means when a user looks at a company record and the related contacts, he has to hover the cusor over each of the contacts to check if they are valid or not.
    Goal
    When a user looks at the contacts linked to the company the following fields will be presnt:
    Contact Valid
    Contact Leave Date.
    This will then mean the user will be able to see without looking which contacts are valid and which are not.
    Problems
    I have tried to create a contact page layout with the fields needed however the only fields avaiable are as follows:
    Company ID
    Company Name
    Company Status
    Contact ID
    Contact Name
    Contact Roles
    Location
    Primary
    Can anybody help?

    Thanks for the reply.
    However I think I didn't make myself clear in my post in terms of the problem. The problem I have is that when a user looks at a company (account) record the user see the following information in relation to which of the available contacts to select "Primary,Last & First name,Job Title, Contact Role, Work Phone and Email". However none of these fields show if the contact is valid or if they have a leave date.
    Both Contact Valid and Contact Leave date have been set up in the system within the contact record. I want to change the layout and have spent hours in the following screens and functions.
    Page layout Management
    Company/Contact Related Information layout
    Related Information Setup
    Company/Contact page layout
    The problem is the screens/functions where I think I could add the two above mentioned fields end up with me turning the fileds into required or read only fields, and the section where I want to drag in the fields to display has the two fields missing.

    I already have some contacts in Outlook on my PC.  I want to pull my iCloud contacts into outlook.  If I turn on iCloud on my PC will I lose the contacts that are in iCloud (replacing them with the Outlook contacts)?

  • Hello , I want to ask some question about ipads \  How powerful is the iPad?  How useful is it for reading books, newspaper or magazines or for surfing the web? Can you identify any shortcomings of the device?   please help me :(

    Hello ,
    I want to ask some question about ipads \
    How powerful is the iPad? 
    How useful is it for reading books, newspaper or magazines or for surfing the web?
    Can you identify any shortcomings of the device?  
    please help me

    it's less powerful than your average computer. THink of it like a netbook but with a better processor.
    It'll do fine for surfing (although if you browse a lot of flash based sites you will need to get a third party browser since safari doesn't accommodate it)
    You may do OK on reading books, papers or magazines, especially if they have apps, but the ipad's screen is backlit, so it doesn't work well outdoors and you may need to fiddle with the brightness so that you don't get eye strain (it's just like doing too much reading from a computer screen)
    I would say the biggest short comings are data transfer. Apple's preferred work flow is that everything is done via iTunes or the internet....well people dont' always have 100% reliable always on internet access so you can find yourself in a situation where you can't get things on/off the iPad.
    By and large, it's a good device for day to day stuff, but is not a computer replacement.

    I seem to have lost the red, green, and yellow dots that are in the upper left hand corner that close or minimize the page.  How can I get them back?

    You may have to try a general OS X troubleshooting process to see if the issue goes away by doing this...
    Have you tried: starting the computer in SafeBoot mode, with shift key held down; a login screen should appear after a time, and then the regular desktop. At this point, locate Disk Utility in utilities folder, and run 'repair disk permissions' on the startup volume, usually the name given the hard disk drive as it appears on desktop. After Disk Utility is finished the permissions repair, restart the computer normally.
    ...The iTunes player has free support only through the duration of the hardware product's complementary or AppleCare extended plan coverages, so though you can download a newer version, that is not the same as free support for an issue. However, the iTunes Store or App Store has a different factor for their product.
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/
    There is an iTunes area in Apple Support Community discussions for more topics like this; except for when they involve a hardware product where an OS X is involved. If your computer is NOT a powerPC (an 'intel'-mac) the topic would more naturally need to be posted where that hardware and later supported OS X version topics get seen. So that is why one asks 'on what Mac running what version...' instead of writing four paragraphs in a wide angle reply. The details about your iMac and the OS X say more; without them, more questions arise.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • It does not cover my question about in what order does the sync work?

    It does not cover my question about in what order does the sync work?
    Does the first signed on computer copy its information to the cloud?
    Does the second computer/pad/cell then download the information from the cloud overwriting the information on the second device even if some of the information is different?
    What happens to the information on the second device that is not in the cloud?
    If you delete a record (eg a bookmark) from the second device how does it then delete it on the first device?
    What are the keys to the different types of information?

    Hi I have answered you questions inline below:
    Does the first signed on computer copy its information to the cloud?
    Yes when you first set up the account or when you first add a device to the cloud, if it is not the first time, it will merge with the other data
    Does the second computer/pad/cell then download the information from the cloud overwriting the information on the second device even if some of the information is different?
    By default it merges. There is no option to change this.
    What happens to the information on the second device that is not in the cloud?
    It will sync at the next sync interval if that data is selected to sync.
    If you delete a record (eg a bookmark) from the second device how does it then delete it on the first device? What are the keys to the different types of information?
    It resolved the entry the next time the first and second device syncs. Can you elaborate on the second part of this question?

  • Issues with processing messages on one receive port causes problems on all the receive ports that are on the same handler

    Greetings,
    An integrator installed biztalk in our environment to process the hl7 message flow between their source application(s) and several receiving applications. We've had problems with this set-up for a while now because some receiving applications sometimes have
    problems processing the messages. Be it either because there's problems with the server that processes the messages of a certain port or because there's problems with the software/daemon/service that needs to process these messages.
    The main problem with this, is that the receiving end of this isn't under our control nor under control of the integrator, but when one receive port isn't processing their messages for a while it causes a problem with all the receive ports that are on the
    same handler. So other receive ports start noticing a slow-down of their incoming messages until after a while nothing gets through anymore.
    What is the best practice to prevent these kind of problems? Should we just create a handler for every receive port? Because that seems a bit overkill.
    Thanks in advance.

    What do you mean exactly with this question?
    "Can you provide some more detail like BizTalk the receiver? "
    The adapters are mainly file and MLLP, the MLLP adapters are already seperated from the file adapters (a handler for MLLP and a handler for file).
    The problem with all the receive ports is that when one receive port isn't processing its messages (usually caused by the software processing the messages) the other receive ports on the same handler receive their messages/files a lot slower. If for any
    reason the problem isn't fixed soon, the other receive ports on the same handler actually stop receiving any messages at all.
    Isolating the receive port that causes the problems like la Cour suggested can work, but next time it might be another port that experiences this issue. So we are looking for a way to make sure the whole message flow isn't hindered by one port (whichever
    port) that can't process its messages. Or rather by one receiving software that can't process its messages.

  • Background events cover overlapping events that are in the foreground.

    Background events cover overlapping events that are in the foreground.
    When I have 2 overlapping events, clicking on one to bring it to the foreground keeps the text of the background event visable and obfuscates the froeground text.
    Anyone else seeing this?

    I'm not familiar with the manner in which TimeLog creates its vCal records in iCal, though I've seen what may be similar problems involving iSync with the records in iCal which are automatically created by the Address Book. Of a set of 27 records, for example - all of which were created by entering a contact's birthday in their Address Book record, and all of which appear identical in iCal - only three would ever synchronize.
    Because all of them synchronize properly with The Missing Sync, which replaces iSync and the iSync Palm Conduit for synchronizing Palm devices, I confident that the problem is not with the Address Book or with iCal, but rather, with iSync itself. In addition to reproducable problems with iSync itself and with the iSync Palm Conduit, there are clearly some problems with the underlying Sync Services mechanism.
    Sync Services is a complex technology, which baffles even developers at times. A recent undocumented change to it under Mac OS X 10.4.3, for example, modifies the push-pull mechanism for groups of changed and unchanged records in such a way that if any unchanged records are associated with changed records in a specific group, the unchanged records may be strippped away - and therefore deleted - during a synchronization event. That is obviously not supposed to happen. Three changed and two unchanged records in a group of five should remain intact: the two unchanged records should not be deleted, but reportedly are under some circumstances.

  • I somehow erased everything (all important dates) off my ical on my mac and I'm afraid that if I connect my iphone that it will do the same there.  Will my iphone sync the dates that are on the phone and add them to the ical?  Or will it delete everything

    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
    Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
    If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
    Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes?  If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

  • Z30 Does not save contacts that are added

    I just recently upgraded from a 9900 to a Z30 and am running the 10.2.0.429 OS. I have tried numorous times to add contacts by going into my contacts, hitting Add (at the bottom), filling out the necessary contact information and then hitting save at the top right hand corner. However, the phone does not seem to save any contacts I enter as when I go to search them, they are not there. The only contacts that are currently appearing in my contacts are my BBM contacts which migrated from my 9900.
    Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

    The phone is trying to be smart but sometimes it overthinks things.
    If this is the case just go to the contact, click on links(x) and then click on unlink next to the one you want as a seperate contact.

  • HT204150 I currently have 14,181 contacts that are on my computer, which an apple tech was nice enough to show me how to transfer all my contacts  from my mac 2 "iCloud " account all though when ever I log into my "iCloud" account it still only shows 13,0

    I currently have 14,181 contacts that are on my computer, which an apple tech was nice enough to show me how to transfer all my contacts  from my mac 2 "iCloud " account all though when ever I log into my "iCloud" account from a different web browser it still only shows 13,032. Meanwhile on my mac book pro, the "icloud" contact is still spinning like its trying to update the rest of the missing contacts. I have let the computer run for 2 days straight and still no progress. Is there a limit to how many contacts I store on "iCloud" I have upgraded to the extra 25 gigs per year. If anyone has any advice I would greatly appreciate it, because its also slowing down my mac book pro significantly causing it hard to do any other task on my computer....Any advice or help would be again greatly appreciated.

    On the surface, it doesn't sound like you're reaching a limit in the number of contacts you can have.
    I would first create a contacts archive (file >> export) for a backup.  Then, go to system preferences >> icloud and uncheck contacts.  Reboot.  Return to those preferences and recheck contacts.
    Also, review http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4489 just in case you have some contact cards that are reaching a different limitation.
