Addressbook.data import from Tiger to Mountain Lion

Hello.
I have a backup of an addressbook.data file and other Contact related files that I am trying to import back into Contacts. The original files are from OS Tiger and I am wanting to import them into Contacts on OS Mountain Lion.
I do not have a working copy of Tiger on my iMac any more so cannot export them in the correct way.
I need to try and find a way of converting/importing the addressbook.data or other file to get at the information I need.
Any help anyone can give is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Basically you need to find a DVD reader that will work, since the only legitimate way to install Snow Leopard is with its DVD.
That can be another Mac, with which you could use FireWire Disk Mode to install Snow Leopard on your MacBook.
You do not need to upgrade to Lion first. You may upgrade from Snow Leopard directly to Mountain Lion.

  • Just updated my mac from Tiger to Mountain Lion. Loaded Photoshop elements 11 (brand new in the box) and when I try to start it - it comes up saying - Licensing for the product has stopped working contact for help.

    I just updated my mac from Tiger to Mountain Lion.  wiped the computer clean and started fresh Loaded Photoshop elements 11 (brand new in the box) and when I try to start it - it comes up saying - Licensing for the product has stopped working contact for help. in Looking for help I was directed here. what do I do?

    I don't know enough to not follow directions. I bought the software brand new in a sealed from factory box. Had it sitting around until - last week when I deleted flash on my computer and had to upgrade to the new OSX. Mountain Lion doesn't use iPhoto - so I had to go with something else. Since I already had this new - unopened package  I opened it up. Shut down all running programs - inserted the disk and followed all the directions for installation.  Still it didn't work.
    I have now uninstalled it (the proper way) and am going to try again.
    I appreciate your responses.
    Thank you!
    If this doesn't work - I am going to just buy Lightroom.

  • Upgrading from Tiger to Mountain Lion

    I have a friend asking me What are the precise steps for upgrading from Tiger to Mountain Lion for a MacBook Pro
    I have the Snow Leopard disk.

    They will need a minimum of a Core2Duo, the CoreDuo will not work, additionally they must have a 64bit EFI, machines that are compatible are ..... Macbook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    If they have PPC programs (Office 2004, Quicken etc) they will not work on Mountain Lion and will need to be replaced, might want to check if they do.

  • HT4889 Is it possible to migrate from Tiger to Mountain Lion????

    It seems that the Mountain Lion migration assistant on a MacBook Air does not see an attached iBook G4 via thunderbolt/firewire as valid volume. For Lion there is an explanation, that it only works via Firewire. What about Mountain Lion? I think the migration assistant should be able to migrate from any ancient OS X version...

    No, you cannot migrate directly from Tiger to Mountain Lion as described in HT4889 - Setup Assistant and Migration Assistant are both broken in 10.8.2 and the procedure in HT4889 does not work.
    What you can do is either upgrade your iBook G4 to Leopard and then migrate from Leopard to Mountain Lion, or migrate from Tiger to another machine running Leopard/Snow Leopard/Lion and then to your new machine running Mountain Lion.
    In theory it is still possible to purchase OS X Leopard directly from Apple as a special order if you call them or something like that. Don't pay $200 to scammers on eBay, please!!
    The nice thing about using Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant is that it really seems to do a good job of migrating contacts/calendar/email and everything else, although obviously you will need to replace all of your old PowerPC apps.

  • Will i loose all my time capsule data if i upgrade to mountain lion from snow leopard

    i am thinking about upgrading from SL to Mountain Lion
    is there anything major i should be concerned with?
    will my time machine backups be availible?
    i mainly use Logic Pro

    Ok, then it looks like you need to start "from scratch:"  Power it off for a couple of minutes, then back on, and follow the manual.
    Be sure it powers-up and the yellow light comes on.
    If you don't have the manual that came with the TC, it should be one of these:
    Time Capsule 802.11n (1st Generation) - Setup Guide
    Time Capsule 802.11n (2nd Generation) - Setup Guide
    Time Capsule 802.11n (3rd Generation) - Setup Guide
    Time Capsule 802.11n (4th Generation) - Setup Guide
    I'm not an expert on that, plus it's late here, and I need to go to bed soon.  If you still have trouble with this, your best bet will be to start a new thread in the Time Capsule forum at: https://discussions.apple.com/community/wireless/time_capsule.  That's where the networking gurus hang out.

  • HT5361 I want to permanently remove years old emails from my IMac Mountain Lion system.  How can I do this by year instead of laboriously doing it one message at a time?

    I want to permanently remove years old emails from my IMac Mountain Lion system.  How can I do so by year rather than slowly removing one message at a time?  Many thanks.

    Another option is to create a smart mailbox that includes emails with date received before a desired date.
    Then, select one message in the Smart Mailbox and cmd-A to select all. Then delete.

    Hi,
    I have recently updated my iMac from OS x mountain lion to OS X Mavericks.
    After that I can't upload any video and some files to my personal email account.
    I have tried to send a small video clip to the sender as attachment. i have done this before
    with the same video same and same email account. This problem found just after installed the
    OS X Movericks. Can anyone please help me to sort this problem.
    Thanks.

    Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folders. In OS X 10.9 there are two sandboxes, while in earlier versions there is only one.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
    Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MailServiceAgent
    Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • How do I get MS Office 2011 to install from DVD on Mountain Lion?

    I just did a clean install of OS X Mountain Lion from a prepared bootable SD-Card on a new partition of my harddrive and wanted to install Microsoft Office 2011 using the original disc. But after double clicking the installer icon nothing happened besides the rainbow colored spinner showing up and disappearing shortly after and my optical drive making some noise. Activity Monitor indicated that the process of the Installer application doesn't react so I had to force quit it. I tried it multiple times to install MS Office this way using the disc but the problem persisted, also after a reboot.
    So far my system is still in a pretty fresh state since I installed hardly any separate apps yet and the most intrusive one of them is probably merely Sophos. OS X's Installer app worked the way it should when I was installing iLife the day before using the Applications Install DVD that came with my Mac.
    When I installed Office 2011 the first time, presumably one year ago on another partition on the same Mac which was running OS 10.6, everything worked fine and the same is true for the time when I upgraded to OS 10.7 (although I didn't install Office again, I just kept everything on the same partition).
    So is there anyone out there who experienced similiar problems and can please help solve this problem?

    Well, that depends on what you mean when you say "verified". But as I wrote in the first post I was able to install iLife from disc on Mountain Lion without much ado. And just now I tested a DVD with some pictures on it and the disc drive would read and display all photos in Preview.
    And given the facts that I rarely use my optical drive at all and that my machine is only little more than a year old, a drive failure seems quite unlikely. But thanks for your response anyway!

    Turned out that there were unprintable characters at the front of the files...caused by the encoding used in the source ECC system ABAP program.

  • Downgrade from Mavericks to Mountain Lion

    I am considering to downgrade from Mavericks to Mountain Lion, and understand I would loose the maps app and some features... but is it worth it it so I dont have to continuously reboot my mac, so I can use a program every time ?
    The problems I am having with mavericks, even when I have done a few tweaks , is that after running a few programs such as mail, safari, garageband  first and then loading photobooth... photobooth or any video app tends to lag , and the video is recorded lagging. A reboot fixes this if i start the program after reboot and not run any programs before.
    Another issue is when I am doing my artwork, drawing in photoshop or manga studio... the pen tablet begins to lag as well, so I would have to save my work, reboot and then continue working until Mavericks starts misbehaving again.
    This mac had its drive wipped clean before It became my personal mac, and I requested Mountain Lion, since I prefered it, but Mavericks was installed.
    I dont mind Mavericks... its just this rebooting to fix or refresh system... is getting annoying when I need to get some artwork done.
