Cannot migrate data from Microsoft Outlook 2013

I'd very much like to use Thunderbird, however once it is installed and I try to import my Outlook 2013 data (contacts, folders, etc.) I receive this message:
"Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the message request. Please run Microsoft Outlook and set it as the default mail client."
I have followed all the steps I found online to ensure Outlook is in fact my default client, but the message persists. I have searched for Add-Ons and have come up empty. I am running Windows 8.1.
I'm not going to switch over to Thunderbird if it can't do something as simple as move my data from one program to another on the same computer.

First you have to export your data from Outlook
then you can import them in Tbird.

  • OMW cannot migrate data from MSAccess.

    I am migrating MSAccess 2003 to Oracle 10g and it seems that all of the schema objects are created but there is the following error when trying to move the data.
    "Unable to migrate data from source table lkpDrugs to destination table RecruitTracking_be.LKPDRUGS :
    [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Could not find file "(unknown)"."
    The MSAcess data gets modified to connect to oracle but there is no data.
    I have tried to install the Oracle ODBC Driver through the universall installer but I can't find the "projects.jar" file that I am supposed to point to in the unzip directory.
    I currently have two data sources defined using "Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)" and "Microsoft ODBC for Oracle"
    The other problem that I am having is that I am not sure what to enter into the feilds Username, Password and ODBC Data Source when the modiy access database screen comes up.

    Hi Terry,
    I will attempt to address each of the issues that you have mentioned in your post.
    1. In reference to your "Could not find file "(unknown)"." issue, it sounds like your MS Access ODBC DSN "omwb_msaccess" isn't correctly configured.
    Please refer to Chapter 4 "Troubleshooting" of the Microsoft Access Reference Guide, which can be accessed via the Help menu item on the workbench. There's a section called "Migrating Table Data Using Microsoft Access ODBC Data Source", which outlines the steps you will need to follow to set up your environment correctly. This should resolve your issue.
    2. In reference to your Oracle ODBC driver installation issue, the latest version of the driver contains a "products.xml" file and not a "products.jar" file as mentioned in its readme file. To successfully install the latest version (10.1.0.3.1) of the Oracle ODBC driver, available for download from OTN at the following location - http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/windows/odbc/index.html - you need to ensure that you are using Oracle Universal Installer v10g. Once you have downloaded the "odbc101031.exe", extract its contents to a local folder on your machine e.g c:\temp. Launch the 10g Universal Installer and select the "products.xml" file from the \ODBC101031\Disk1\stage folder you extracted. You should now be able to successfully install the driver.
    3. You mention that you are unsure what connection information to supply in the ODBC DSN. Firstly, ensure that once you have successfully installed the Oracle ODBC driver, you set up an Oracle ODBC DSN on your machine. This DSN will be the one you use in order to modify your MS Access MDB file using the workbench. Secondly, please go to Help | Microsoft Access Reference Guide on the menu bar of the workbench. Refer to Chapter 2 "Migration Process", specifically the section "ODBC Connection Issues with Linked Tables". This section gives information on what user to use.
    I hope this helps.

  • Migrate Data from Symantec Altiris Platform to SharePoint 2013

  • Import contacts from old outlook 2013 to new Outlook 2013

    I recently had to get a new computer.  I removed the boot drive from the old computer and installed it as drive F on the new computer. This worked great in recovering my large data files.  However, drive F contains an instance of Outlook 2013
    as does drive C.  How do I copy to or import drive F's contact info to the new Outlook 2013 contacts?  I do not need the old email messages as I already have gotten them from the email service provider.

    Hi
    As per the information and details provided by you, to import contacts from old Outlook 2013 to the new Outlook 2013 please follow these steps: -
    Collect Files from the Old Computer
    First, you need the PST from your old computer. In most cases, they will be in the default location Outlook uses. To quickly access the default PST location outside of
    Outlook, paste this line in Windows Explorer’s address bar:
    %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
    Copy the Files to the New Computer
    Now, you will copy the PSTs to the new computer. If you have several PSTs in the folder and are not sure which one is the one with your data, look at the file dates and
    file sizes. If you have 265KB PST files, they are empty and don’t need to be moved.
    Paste the following line into the address bar.
    %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
    In this folder you will have the NK2, SRS, XML, outlprnt, and VBA project files.
    Open the AppData Roaming folder using the following command and copy the NK2 file to the folder.
    %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Outlook
    Create a Profile
    After the PST file is on the local drive, type mail in the start search field on the
    Start menu or go to Control Panel, Mail then opens the profile dialog. (If you use the
    Category view, mail is under the Users group; in Win 64-bit, Mail is under 32-bit application.
    Click the Show Profile button.
    Click Add to create a new profile.
    Enter a descriptive name for your profile.
    Enter the name you want to use for your display name, your email address, and your password.
    Add Your Existing Data File (PST) to the Profile
    If you have an Outlook data file PST, and you want to use with your new profile, then please follow these steps: -
    Select the newly created profile, then click Properties.
    Click Data files button to open Account Setting dialog to the Data files tab.
    Click Add then browse to your existing PST file.
    If the PST is a native Outlook 2003/2007 file type, choose the top entry for the Outlook Personal File. Click Ok.
    Select your existing PST file.
    You can enter a friendly name or just click OK to return the Account Settings dialog.
    Click the Sets as Default button. Select the PST Outlook created when it created the profile and click Remove. If you want, click Open folder to find and deletes this PST.
    I hope this information will be helpful for you.
    Thanks and regards

  • How to import Thundebird archives in Microsoft Outlook 2013??

    I have some old thhunderbird files that I archived long time back. Now I need to access them but I dont have my mac with me. I have been rumming Microsoft Outlook 2013 and would like to import these files in Outlook as well. But Outlook doesn't support
    these files. So is there any possible way to perform this import process in simple and easy manner??

    Hi Brian,
    The suggestion provided by ahuibers is what I usually suggest to users if they want to migrate items from a third-party mail client to Outlook, which takes the IMAP feature to sync items on one mail client to the other. It is easy and secure.
    There are also third-party tools to convert the archive to .pst file which can be imported to Outlook, my suggestion is to keep a backup of the archive before doing so, in case permanent damage is done to the archive, which may lead to mail loss.

  • How can I sync up the calendar from Microsoft Outlook email with my ipad 2?

    How can I sync up my calendar from Microsoft Outlook with my ipad 2? Or do I have to enter in all of the dates individually?

    When the iPad is connected to your computer's iTunes, then on the device's Info tab you should be able to select where to sycn a calendar from - from the iPad manual :
    You can sync calendars from applications such as iCal on a Mac, or from Microsoft Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 on a PC. (On a Mac, you can sync calendars with multiple applications. On a PC, you can sync calendars with only one application at a time.)

  • HT201250 i bought a new mac, and i want to migrate data from my old pc external drive to my mac how is this done

    Just Recently bought a new Mac, because my old PC crashed again, ( finished w/ microsoft) but now i would like to migrate data from my external drive i used on my PC to my new Mac. i loaded the Migration assitant from utilities but didnt see how to migrate the data from this external drive. which is a SEgate drive. any ideas.

    Just in case you are not aware of this, you can probably use your external drive, which you presumably now no longer need for your PC, as the backup drive using the Mac's Time Machine. If you still have any Windows specific files that you want to keep, it is really easy to partition the drive so that you can keep Windows files and Mac files in different partitions.

  • NVIDIA Optimus Display Driver for Windows 7 (64 Bit) interfering with Microsoft Outlook 2013

    Lenovo Community
    Can't explain it nor do I understand it but it appears that the latest NVIDIA Optimus Display Drivers (Version 9.18.13.1270 / 8.15.10.2725, dated 05 Jan 2014) is interfering with Microsoft Outlook 2013. For a week I have been working with Microsoft Technical and Lenovo's Premium Support to no avail. I have reformatted my hard drive 4 times and uninstall and reinstalled Office 2013 Pro more time than I can to remember. The issue stared last Tuesday (18 Mar 2014) when I uploaded new drivers from Lenovo and Microsoft. Outlook would not execute (the initial Outlook dialog would just say processing ....) For four day's Microsoft, Lenovo, and I trouble shot everything under the sun. What was odd was whenever Microsoft or Lenovo technicians took control of my computer Outlook worked fine, and when I stated this to the technicians they thought I was nuts, but once I had control the problem returned. Finally frustrated to the hill I once again reformatted my hard drive but this time installed the Lenovo updates and software one at a time creating numerous restore points along the way. When I updated the new NVIDIA drivers the problem resurfaced.  When I would go into the device manager and uninstall the NVIDIA driver’s outlook once again worked fine.  I finally was able to reinstall (through my restore points) the previous version of drivers and Outlook is working fine.  Is there something to this. ??????
    Jeff

    I always avoid Optimus, it's historically been way too buggy and very little performance bump over HD4000/4600.  I either opt for Quadro machines or just run Intel integrated.  That being said, it's a blessing in disguise for you since Outlook is hideos.  Consider something else, so many better options exist.

  • PDFmaker not converting Jpg attachments to emails in Microsoft Outlook 2013

    I am having problems converting jpg attachments to emails in Microsoft Outlook 2013 using PDFmaker. I'm running Adobe Acrobat 11 and just updated it to the latest version and that did not solve the problem.
    I can convert the emails and Word attachments and can convert the jpgs manually by saving them to my desk top and then adding them as attachments to the resulting PDF but I have several emails each was several attachments that I want to save and it will take me hours to do it manually.
    I was thinking there might be some security setting on the jpgs that is preventing PDFmaker from automatically converting them.
    I already confirmed that the Preference Conversion Setting is selected to include all attachments in the Adobe PDF. I also unselected the box that reads "block download of external content" but it did not help.

    Manual method is a difficult task .You can easily transfer your mails from the Thunderbird to MS Outlook using third party conversion software.i faced the same problem.i tried the following utility. It converts all my Thunderbird accounts to a single PST.you can also try the free demo version of the software.

  • Migrate data from orcle to oracle

    Hi ,
    A) Using oracle workbench tool can we migrate data from oracle 9i to oracle 10g ?
    B) Is this tool used only for migrating data from non-oracle source to Oracle db ?
    regards
    thiru

    Dear Barry
    Thanks for the valuable information provided, it had answered few of my doubts.
    i am much thankful to you if you can help me in this regards.
    Does Oracle own any GUI based tool similar to Microsoft-DTS to Extract & transform data from one Oracle DB to other Oracle DB ?
    The source DB (oracle 9i) is not properly normalized , the data from source is moved to a Normalized 10g DB with new attributes(based on new requirements) added to these tables . Some tables from source are splitted into 2 or more in target (oracle 10g) database. I have scenarios like
    My text below quotes "SOURCE" AS UNNORMALIZED DB & "TARGET" as new DB which is NORMALIZED.I need to migrate data from SOURCE to TARGET
    1) A single row in SOURCE be migrated to multiple rows across one or more
    tables in TARGET.
    2) A multiple rows in single column in SOURCE be migrated to single row and
    multiple columns in TARGET.
    For the above mentioned scenario sql*loader /external table/export & import or transportable tablespaces can be used as mentioned by you. but considering the ease of use and the complexity is there any GUI tool which oracle has for data migration from oracle db to oracle db.
    your advice will be much help to me.
    Thanks

  • I backed up 10.4 but cannot migrate data, need help

    Hi, New here. I had a 1 on 1 training and was recommended to back up my computer (Tiger OS) which I did. I installed Leopard, but cannot migrate data back. I backed up on a USB IOmega drive. The person I spoke with at the apple store either did not know or did not remember to tell me to turn off the File Vault. Now I cannot bring back much of the data or settings I had.
    Here's my question, If I reinstall Tiger, will I be able to transfer the data back from the back-up drive, and then just do an upgrade instead of a complete fresh install of Leopard?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    You should be able to mount your file vault directory- the sparse image- within Leopard from your backup, and then copy the data to your new user directory.
    You should be able to copy the data from your backup drive if you re-install Tiger, but since its not clear why you can't copy the data from the drive now, its not clear whether the issue preventing you from getting at it will go away after you reinstall Tiger.
    I think maybe you might want to restate your problem in more detail.

  • Migrating data from oracle to sql server

    I have two databases(Oracle and Sql Server) in my company.
    I want to migrate some data on daily basis from Oracle to Sql Server.
    what are the best methodologies used to perform this task?
    Can we schedule this task on daily basis?
    please help me guys

    Salma,
    First and foremost, you need to understand that there are architectural difference between Oracle and SQL Server (with the major one being the difference between Oracle's PL/SQL and Microsoft's Transact-SQL) thus, it will not be an easy task to migrate data from Oracle Database to SQL Server. As far as the use of tools is concerned, you can utilize the following tools (third party tools not recommended) to achieve this:
    Microsoft SQL Server Migration Assistant (Oracle to SQL)
    http://www.microsoft.com/sqlserver/2005/en/us/migration-oracle.aspx
    Oracle SQL Developer Migration Workbench (SQL to Oracle)
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration//workbench/index_sqldev_omwb.html
    But before proceeding with anything, I would recommend you to read through the following post as it lists down the primary compatibility resources and migration guidelines:
    Migrating from Oracle to SQL Server

    Hope this helps.

  • How to change "Custom Delivery has failed to these recipients or group from another user" From Microsoft Outlook

    By default, the system generated mailbox comes from sender “Microsoft Outlook” like the screen shoot below .Sometimes we might need to change the display name of the system generated mailbox because of some reasons.
    The simplest way to change the field of the display name on the red line is to
    make this change in the ADSIEdit. Make short of long, here are the steps:
    Open ADSIEdit.msc
    Configuration -> Services -> Microsoft Exchange -> Company Name -> Transport Settings
    Right-click “CN=MicrosoftExchange329e71ec88ae4615bbc36ab6ce41109e” to properties.
    Locate the display name attribute, it should be Microsoft Outlook, then change it to Desired Display name that users want to see when they receive an NDR.
    Close ADSIEdit.
    Up to now, this can satisfy the needs of most people. But in my case, I also want to change the SMTP address ([email protected])
    to be easy to understand.
    We can use the below command to get the value of the MicrosoftExchangeRecipientPrimarySmtpAddress
    Get-OrganizationConfig | FL MicrosoftExchangeRecipientPrimarySmtpAddress
    To change the value of MicrosoftExchangeRecipientPrimarySmtpAddress is little bit tricky.
    If we make any organizational changes by running Set-Organizationconfig command then it reverts back this value to default value Microsoft Outlook.
    First we need to change the value by running the below command
    Set-OrganizationConfig -MicrosoftExchangeRecipientEmailAddressPolicyEnabled $False
    And then we need to set an appropriate email address from which it can send out NDR’s to the internal users.
    Set-OrganizationConfig -MicrosoftExchangeRecipientPrimarySmtpAddress
    [email protected]
    Note:
    MicrosoftExchangeRecipientEmailAddressPolicyEnabled –
    If this parameter is set to
    $false, you must manually add new e-mail addresses to the Microsoft Exchange recipient when
    e-mail address policies are added or modified. If this parameter is set to
    $true,
    every change we did above will be removed.
