Can I import folders from another computers mail?

I have an iMac with Mountain Lion, and the wife has an older Macbook that won't
take Mountain Lion. She's thinking of giving the Macbook away, but wants to save
her mail folders to MY iMac. Is this kind of import possible. We do have sharing
set up.
Thanks

As to the two things in your 2:05 message, here are my recommendations:
1) Any folders (groups of mailboxes) and mailboxes (groups of messages) currently on IMAP servers should become available to the iPad as soon as it signs onto the account(s) they are on. No further action should be necessary for them.
2) Any messages currently residing on your iMac (both those inside "On My Mac" and inside the Inbox(es) associated with your POP-based account(s) and POP-based access to dual-mode accounts) should be transferred to IMAP servers where they can be access by the iPad.
As for your AppleID having both an iCloud account and a POP account as per your 2:10 message, the POP mailbox must date from the MobileMe era, since Apple doesn't offer POP access to iCloud accounts. The actual messages would now reside on your iMac (and possibly other computers if you used more than one). This is a good thing, since the MobileMe servers are no longer accessible.
I hope this helps.

How can I import contacts from another AIM account to this new one??

Hi,
Use AIM for Mac and use the Export and Import features.
Other than that it is a question on making sure every Single Buddy has more than just their Screen name in the IChat Address Card so it is added to the Address Book and dragging them back from there

Can't import photos from another machine???

I have downloaded a few albums on another machine and then brought a copy home to put on my iPhoto library but every time I try to import I get an error message saying:
'+The following files could not be imported (they may be an unrecognized file type or the files may not contain valid data).+'
All the images are in Jpeg format!

they are in my iPhoto Library
How did they get there? iPhoto will not import pics from the active iPhoto Library Folder - a protection against duplication. There is never a need for the user to enter that folder and anytime you do you risk damaging your Library.

Can't import library from another computer

I used to be able to sync my aperture libraries from my iMac to my MacBook Pro. I just would use the import Library/Project option and it worked perfectly. Now Aperture just hangs when I try to do it and I can't get it to work.
Does anyone have any ideas?

On the new laptop, launch iTunes. From the menu bar click Store / Authorize This Computer.

Can you import music from an itunes from one computer to another?

can you import music from itunes on one computer to another?

There are a number of things you could do. One would be to network the to computers and transfer your iTunes folder from one to another. You can also use your iPod as a hard drive and move the folder with it though that would be considerably slower than computer to computer. Here are a few links that may help you out:

When I try to import pictures from another catalog, I cannot access my RAW pictures. I can only seem them as non supported what do I do to import?

Sorry for the long delay. I have Windows 8.1 and using Lightroom 5.7 I have organized my unedited RAW format photos in files on my hard drive in folders in My documents/pictures. Once I edit them I move them to another folders on a separate drive and discard the rejects.
When trying to access my documents by selecting .File - Import from another catalog- my documents/ pictures; I see the folders, however when I select it, it says No items to match your search When using the drop down menu on the lower right I can only see the images if I click on "all files" and when I click on the image I want to import, it says "Lightroom cannot import this catalog; "The catalog does not appear to be a valid Lightroom catalog"
All of this happend when I loaded a Cannon Pro 100 printer plug-in. I tried to disable the plugin, but It is still happining and cannot access the images.

Photos that were synced from a computer won't show for copying to a computer. If you want to copy them back then you will need a third-party app on your phone such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to a device, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer (e.g. their dimensions might be different and their colours may look a bit different).

How can I import images from iphoto with the albums and folders?

How can I import images from iphoto without losing the albums and folders I already created?

In Organizer, you can choose File>get Photos and Videos>From iPhoto.
Importing from iPhoto'09: If in iPhoto, you organize your media using photo references, that is, the media actually does not reside inside iPhoto library package, and are referenced through original locations, Organizer does not create new copies of those media and just refer to the original location. but if your iPhoto media reside inside iPhoto library, Organizer creates a copy all media in your pictures folder, also imports albums and tags and other metadata.
Importing from iPhoto'011: In this case, Organizer always creates a copy of your photos in your pictures folder which resides inside iPohto package. It does not import the albums and other metadata like star rating, caption etc.
Hope this information helps!
