Any way to import entourage 2004 info (messages and addresses) into Mail - after installing Lion?

I have just installed Lion - Entourage 2004 nop longer works (ok, I should have checked!). Does anyone know if I can set up Mail to import all my Entourage info (account details, emails and addresses)?

The thing is, sometimes when I send PDFs it's fine, and sometimes she gets it and it's a jpeg and embedded ... not consistent at all ... I didn't assume for sure it was on my end, but without sitting at her computer and looking at Outlook, which I'll do the next time we meet, it's hard to know what's going on.
I do know that sometimes when I attach a PDF, the whole thing shows up in the body of the email (like it's embedded), and sometimes it's just a PDF icon attachment, and so I know that's something happening on my end before I even send the file, but can't for the life of me figure out what.
I like Mail a lot. But it does lack features that Outlook and Entourage have that I like. For instance being able to send an attachment to the main recipient only, and not the CCs and BCCs, which I used to so that a client knew I was sending the final high-res file to a printer, without having to send it to them. And I never had attachment problems when I used those programs, but maybe that's simply a function of using PC to PC programs.

  • Any way to recover Entourage 2004 address book, emails?

    I just updated my OS to Mountain Lion only to find out it won't support my old Microsoft Office 2004 applications. Terrific. Is there a way to recover my Entourage address book and inbox from the local hard drive? My last Time Machine backup was a qhile ago (I know, I know).
    Thanks.

    The easiest way would be to get MS Office 2011.
    Outlook can import those Entourage files.
    Come at a price though.

  • Any way to import Entourage XML **cache** files from its database to Mail?

    I had a really bad meltdown and all I could retrieve from my address books (yes, I backed up, no it failed too) were Entourage XML cache files of my addresses and emails. They exist as "pointers" to originally stored info, not the info itself, so I cannot simply import them as tab delimited, or text, because of all the tags (or without a helluva lot of work editing) - however all the info is there. This looks to me like XML right? So is there someway to simply convert into another program - an in between convertor? editor? - that could get them to tabbed format. Here's what an address looks like to give a sense what I'm dealing with. Thanks for any suggestions.

    I've done a few test runs and the video quality seems pretty decent considering the quality of some of the original VHS recordings, but a "rough around the edges" look is noticeable when the source tape wasn't the best quality to begin with.
    If converting the .asf file compromises quality further then I'll avoid that. The device seems at least like a great starting point for doing something with all of those old tapes. I figure I can at least experiment in the meantime and save up to get a more Mac friendly device that does the more direct conversion. At the very least I can get my old video projects from VHS onto DVD and work with them later on in iMovie.
    I'm just a little irked that every now and then there's hardware or an application that is made PC only, almost like the manufacturer doesn't even realize that Macs even exist. The device wasn't made by Microsoft or one of the major PC makers, so I don't get not making it so that the video files are saved as mpeg4 instead of .asf
    Now that I think about it, how common are SD cards outside of digital cameras (still and video cameras both seem to use them)? I have a camera that uses an SD card and if I didn't have the video converter, I wouldn't have known about using the cards for something other than pics or camera footage, and I wouldn't have known about needing a card reader because the camera plugs into a USB for downloading pics.

  • Import photos without copying? I Have thousands of photos on a hard drive separate from my mac and i dont have enough space on my mac to copy them to. Any way to import without copying to the local hard drive?

    Import photos without copying? I Have thousands of photos on a hard drive separate from my mac and i dont have enough space on my mac to copy them to. Any way to import without copying to the local hard drive?

    Yes, but you might want to think carefully about it.
    A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing. The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.
    This is an attractive option for some users at face value, but it contains a significant number of issues that you might want to consider before making the decision to run a Referenced Library
    How to do it:
    iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced and uncheck the box at 'Copy items to the iPhoto Library'
    Now when you import iPhoto makes an alias in the Library Package that points to the stored file. Note: iPhoto still creates a thumbnail of the image and it makes a Preview of edited photos inside the Library Package.
    Issues?
    1. You are responsible for file management. That's more work:
    You must first move the files from your camera to the storage location before importing.
    If you want to delete files then you must first trash them from iPhoto and then afterwards find them in your storage and trash them.
    Thereafter, you cannot move the files on early versions of iPhoto at all, on iPhoto 08 and later you may move them on the same Volume or Disk. If you move them to a new volume or disk the aliases my break. If they are on an different volume and you move them the aliases will break.
    You cannot rename the files.
    Migrating: moving to a new machine, moving the files to another disk are all a lot more complex.
    2. You gain no extra functionality from running a Referenced Library. Nothing. This is just storage. You still manage the files via iPhoto. You edit them with iPhoto or via iPhoto's External Editor setting, otherwise you're changes will not be available in iPhoto. You don't save  byte of storage space.
    3.  If you have the Library on one volume and the photos on another you if anything changes in the path to a file (Like if you upgrade your machine, move the files on the NAS or on to another one?) then the alias will break, and you'll have to repair it manually. For every photo in the Library. One at a time.
    Why do you want to run a Referenced Library?
    Because my photos won't fit on my HD?
    You can run a Managed library from an external disk. Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    You're worried about accessing the files?
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:   You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.  If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
    For users of 10.6 and later:  You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation  which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
    Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    Show File:  a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier:  Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.    3.b.
    b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • Any way to import multi-layered Illustator file into Motion?

    I have an Illustrator map of Europe and i would like to bring it into Motion.
    I know that Motion can import Illustrator files as pdf but is there any way to import a multi-layered illustrator file into Motion. I just saw this web site regarding a Motion plug-in that claims to do just this:
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/16298/layerlink

    Without a dedicated plug or FxPlug, Motion has no inherent ability to parse Illustrator layers.
    We just bust the layers out and save them as individual files. Or, of course, we use After Effects.

  • Any way to import content from AW7 packaged file to modify and repackage?

    Hi, I am new to AW.  Trying to take an existing aircraft systems training program and merge it with another training program that was written with AW5, which modules are not compatible with AW7.  According to the help file, when packaged, the flowlines and icons used to design the program are removed and no longer accessible.  Is there any way to import the content and redesign and tailor to my specific needs?  Thanks.

    Douglas,
    Are you talking about packaged Authorware 5 files? Because it sounds like you are quoting info about packaged files...
    The Authorware 7 authoring tool should be able to open and convert Authorware 5 source files. If all you have a repacked files there's not really anything you can do.

  • Is there any way to import from ipod back to itunes??

    I have a problem... my hardrive over heated last week, and I lost EVERYTHING. I have to start completely over, and just redownloaded itunes to my fixed computer. luckily, I had a good amount of my music saved on my ipod. however, is there any way to import the other way around, and move music from my ipod back onto my computers and itunes??? i cant stand having an empty library!
    -briana

    Bit of a pain but possible:
    1) My documents, tools, folder options, show hidden files
    2) open itunes
    3) edit, preferences
    The most important bit coming up:
    4) LEAVE PREFERENCES OPEN THROUGHOUT WHOLE PROCESS, OTHERWISE IPOD WILL BE WIPED.
    5) plug in ipod
    6) open my computer
    7) ipod should be in devices with removable storage
    8) into ipod
    9) into ipod control
    10) into music
    11) select all
    12) copy
    13) into my documents
    14) into my music
    15) into itunes (folder)
    16) into itunes music (folder)
    17) paste
    when the paste has finished:
    18) use remove ipod icon on toolbar to get ipod disconnected safely
    19) into itunes program
    20) close preferences
    21) file, add folder to library
    22) find your way back to itunes music folder
    and there it all is. Go back to hiding hidden folders in tools, folder options when done, or they can get in the way (or deleted by mistake!)
    no idea how to do any of this on a mac, i'm a PC user!
    take it easy,

  • Is there any way of importing stuffs from Microsoft Access to SQL Server?

    I have quite a big store of information Microsoft Access DB, but now i am required to switch to SQL Server?
    Is there any way of importing to SQL Server, either by Java programming or manually?
    Thank you in advance.

    I like to give some tips on how to fulfil the requirement.. I haven't tried this. If you succeeded, it is well and good.
    1) Using Java:
    If you like to Java to import the data from MS Access to SQL Server, you have to write a JDBC Program in such a way that it has to retrieve the data from each MSAccess tables and store it in temperory java varaible.After writng into the temp. varaibles, the same thing will be written into SQL Server. The whole process is repeated for all the tables in MS Access.
    2) Manual Process:
    Try to get the data scripts from MS-Access for all the tables and Load the same into SQL Server
    I hope that Manual Process consumes less time compared in writing the codes for transformation..
    I hope that you got some idea on reading this. If you have any doubts, try to get back to me..

  • Any way of importing from Access to SQL Server?

    I have a huge store of information in Access. But now I'm required to use SQL Server.
    Is there any way of importing the information from Access to SQL Server by Java programming?
    Or is there a manual way of doing that?
    Thank you in advance.

    I need to use Java because this is for a client. I
    can't expect the client to follow those steps. As a
    result, I want to create something simple for the
    client to convert from Access to SQL Server.
    Any other way of doing that?
    That argument does not make sense.
    There is no way that a 'client' is going to be able to manage MS SQL Server without understanding how it works. MS SQL Server is a complex database and requires at least some dedicated support, even if it is only part time.
    For example consider the following:
    -MS Access does not have a log file. MS SQL Server does. How is the log file going to be sized?
    -If the log file fills up (like for a run away query) MS SQL Server comes to a screeching halt. How is that problem going to be fixed?
    Now maybe you are going to provide that support, which means you can run those scripts. Or the client is going to support it in which case they need to have someone who understands it - and they will need to know how to run those scripts (since it is rather basic knowledge.)

  • Any way to import from another drive and leave clips in place?

    Hi
    Is there any way to import from other drives where you can leave your media in place?
    Whenever I've imported clips from another drive I had to copy them to the library, while clips on the same drive as the library I could leave in place. Besides getting a bit tired of FCP treating like a kid with Alzheimer's, what would one do, say, when a drive gets full? I could see big projects needing more than a single drive.
    best
    elmer

    LIke Russ said, the copy of the entire folder structure is similar to creating a camera archive. This copy or archive is treated just as if it were a camera card - in particular, "leave in place" is not available, and you have the option go import just parts of clips if you want.
    so technicay even though they reside in a hard drive this is like importing from camera, as opposed to "import from file".
    I Will try to describe how I handle my media. I hope this will help clarify things a bit. I am not saying thus is the way to do things, but it is my way.
    I keep archives of the camera cards, which I then erase and reuse.
    I import clips from my camera archives which I store as external media (copying to a folder of my choosing instead of into the library). These movie files, plus other files that I get from other sources, can be later imported and used in other libraries using "leave in place".
    And all of this of course needs to be regularly backed up.

  • Is there any way to import the PST file to Thunderbird

    My boss used Outlook 2010 to store all his emails. Is there any way to import the PST file to Thunderbird so he can access them from a new computer?
    Thunderbird cannot be installed on the old computer and Outlook is not on the new computer. All information is saved in a PST file on our local backup.
    Alternatively, is there a way to convert to a file type that CAN be imported? This is a 5GB file. (I know, I KNOW, but I cannot convince him he doesn't need all of these emails.)

    Does he use an e-mail provider with sufficient mailbox space? In that case, you can move the e-mail back to the server and download it using Thunderbird.
    This only works when you configure the e-mail account with IMAP (not POP3).
    Hope this helps.
