Converting/Importing Now Up To Date files to iCal

Is there a way to import all my Now Up To Date info into iCal?

Brad,
Since you used the word "convert" it implies to me that you are moving from the windows version.
If that is true, you may find some help at Now Software Support.

Importing Now Up To Date Calendar into iCal

I have been using NUTD for ten years. It is now starting to crash often with the latest OS software. So I would like to import my entire NUTD calendar into iCal. However, I cannot figure out how to do this. I have looked at discussions on the subject, but they all seem to be several years old. Any new ideas on doing this? I have a Bed and Breakfast and need the past ten years calendar info, plus the reservation info that goes out three year from now. So I need to import 13 years worth of calendar data.

I just did a full migration from Now Up-to-Date to iCal and was successful using a tip obtained elsewhere. The key is to pass the data through Excel and Palm Desktop. Now can't export vCal yet and iCal won't import tab delimited text. However, Palm Desktop can import tab-delimted text and export vCal.
I don't think you can successfuly create multiple iCal calendars from the Now categories going through Palm Desktop; I didn't try that. To make sure it worked out, I did it using multiple export/imports doing one Now category at a time by passing it through Excel. Here's a summary of the steps:
1. Export your date rage from Now in tab-delimited format.
2. Open the export file in Excel, sort by category.
3. Extract all entries for each category into separate workbooks, save each as tab-delimited text file format.
4. Open Palm Desktop and create a new calendar for the category (e.g business, personal, special events, etc.) Save it in a temp place like your desktop.
5. Import the text file to the new Palm Desktop calendar
6. Export from Palm Desktop to a vCal file
7. Create a new calendar in iCal for the category to be imported
8. Import the vCal file into that calendar.
Repeat steps 4-8 for each Now category.
There were some anomolies I couldn't explain (like some single-day all-day events becoming two-day events in iCal), but I just cleaned those up manually.
Repeating events in the Now Calendar will become multiple single events in iCal. Also, if you have any commas in titles or notes, the process of passing through Excell wil put " " around those entries in iCal. If this bothers you, you could pass the saved Excel text files (from step 3) through a text editor (Text Wrangler works best, TextEdit should do it also) to delete the quotes if you want.

Importing Now Up-to-Date into iCal (again)

Hi -- I tried some of the solutions posted, but none worked. (For instance, Entourage gives me a message that it cannot import because a Now Up-to-Date file can't be found.) I've dead-ended. Any new solutions, since the last ones wre posted? Thanks!

Calendar from Now-Up-To-Date sync wtih iCal and iPhone

I've been struggling to sync my current Now Up To Date calendar with my iphone and I think I have a solution for at least a one-way sync. Here's a copy of my post from another forum. I hope it helps others....
Does anyone else have a better solution?
I've been using my Treo as a go-between for Now Up To Date and iCal with software from The Missing Sync. This seems to work as a one-way sync from NUD to my iCal. I sent an email to them asking for help and here's their reply:
Description of problem:
Hi. I've been trying to use your software to get my data from Now Up To Date (NUD) to iCal so that I can have it on my iPhone. I know you don't support the iPhone, but maybe you can see if my approach is valid at all. I have a profile in The Missing Sync that only uses the NUD conduit. It is able to get any changes to my Treo 700p just fine. Then I made another profile that only uses the Mark/Space Tasks and Events conduits to get that data from the Treo to iCal. Somehow it worked a few times, but not any more. Is my idea a good one? Should I keep trying or give it up?
Steps to Reproduce:
Here's my steps.
1) Profile named NUD Treo. Has active only the NUD conduit, set to synchronize. I run the sync from the Treo and all changes I made in NUD are transfered to the Treo just fine.
2) I change to the profile named Treo iCal. I have slected the two condiuts, Mark/Space Events and Mark/Space Tasks. I have it set to synchronize all categories. When I run the sync from the Treo, it works for a bit, but none of the changes show up in iCal. Even though the items show in the Treo's calendar, they don't transfer to iCal.
A couple of times when I did the transfer I saw a comment "pushing from handheld".... and on those syncs the data showed up. But it doesn't always say that and the data doesn't transfer on thos syncs.
The reply from The Missing Sync's Support:
Hello,
Yes, that procedure should work.
First, update to 5.1.2 if you haven't done so yet. http://www.markspace.com/ftp/missingsyncpalmos5.1.2.dmg
Then follow these directions to have the Palm overwrite the Mac's Address Book and iCal.

Importing Now Up to Date to iCal

For years I've used a calendar application called Now Up to Date, which also has a companion contact manager. I've resisted converting to iCal because I have so much information on the calendar, including many events that repeat not just from week to week but year to year. However, I think the time has come. Is there a way to import my calendar date to iCal? There are some archived questions on this topic from several years ago, but they were not helpful. I've heard of a free utility called NUD to iCal that claims to do this but would like to know if anyone has tried this and, if so, how well it worked. As a last resort, I guess I could undertake the laborious process of manually re-entering all of my calendar data. Either way, should I do this while I'm still using Snow Leopard or wait until I upgrade to Lion?

Import Movie-type Raw Data File

Hi Folks - this one should be an easy one but having problems. Been given a single file that is a series of 10 frames with 256 rows x 320 cols for each frame. Data representation is I16 or U16 (I have tried both [also tried I8/U8 just in case]). I am using the following simple piece of code to try to open but getting error 71 (File datalog conflict). Any thoughts - need a second set of tired eyes to look at this. The raw data file I have named .doc just because the forum post would not accept .raw extension which is what you can rename the raw data file to.

My impression when I got the file was that all of the frames were first stored in an array prior to just writing to a file. (The acquisition was done with a non-LabVIEW controlled instrument). Then I thought maybe each frame acquired was then stored, followed by next frame acquisition and storage, etc. Now, my next approach is the byte (binary file) reading using options of I16, U16, big-endian, little-endian as options. For example, here is the code to do one variation and this seems to be getting me closer (I am not in touch with data acquirer to see what the actual frames should look like). With this code, I am definitely opening the data frames and displaying them.

Tp import fails with error "data files not transferred"

Hi colleagues,
I am working on transport requests. I had issued out the tp addtobuffer SIDKxxxx <sid> pf=TP_DOMAIN_SID.PFL command for a number of transport requests at OS level; but when i then try to do tp import SIDKxxxxx <sid> client= u18 pf=TP_DOMAIN_sid.PFL, i get this error: "Data files are not transfered" in the QAS system. Everything works fine in PROD though. What could be the reason for this. I can't get it done within the application either.
Your responses appreciated.

Hi,
I guess you have individual transport directories. I f you have configured the Transport Domain and added the Other Two into the Domain and configured the Transport Route. You should be able to see the Some RFC Destinations in SM59.
TMSADM@<SID>.<DOMAIN NAME>
TMSSUP@<SID>.<DOMAIN NAME>
Please check the Test connection. of all these RFC Destination. If these fail check if you have firewall issues between the system stopping the communication on Port 33<Instance No>.
Thanks,

How to import old Contacts Card Data files into 10.8.5 Contacts app

My old Snow Leopard Macbook died but its hard drive lived.
I was able to find the Address Book contacts but they are in a format that the new Contacts app doesn't recognize.
Its kind is "Contacts Card Data" and each file ends with ".abcdp".
How can I import these files into the new Contacts app? Contacts does not seem to want them. Do I need to convert them to v.card?
Thanks.

I've had no exposure to 10.8 or even 10.7, but the following should work, with 'AddressBook' replaced by 'Contacts'. (It's copied from https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1436528. It worked for me in 10.6.8.)
Quit Address Book.
Make a copy of folder ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook in case anything goes wrong.
Delete AddressBook-v22.abcddb from ~/Library/Application Support/.
Put your abcdp files in folder ~/Library/Application Support/MetaData.
Restart Address Book.

How to erase data files for ical & address book

I have Palm Treo 700P, am a .mac subscriber and on syncing have had problems with multiple entries and re-entries from my .mac account or MacBook or the Treo. AND, conflict resolver has hundreds of conflicts.
Will the following work, and, how do I do it.
-Back up iCal and Address book.
-Delete whatever files I need to to erase the existing program database on Treo/address book/ iCal
-Re-sync with .mac to get "one" copy of my databases on all 3 hardwares.
If not, how should I do it?
Thanks,

XML data file import

1. I exported data using SQL Developer 3.1 in XML format.
2. I get 'No reader of xml type registered' error when I try to import the same XML data file using SQL Developer 3.1. The 'file open' dialog does have an option to pick XML files and it shows my XML file on the directory.
Do I need to install any extension to be able to import XML data file?
Thanks in advance.
Note: If it allows XML export out-of-the-box, then it should allow import of XML also out-of-the-box.

Unfortunately we don't support XML in our Table Import feature. You can request this in our exchange on SQLDeveloper.oracle.com

Now Up To Date and Now Contact Sync with iPhone

I purchased an iPhone after using a Treo 700 with my Mac. All my calendar data is in Now Up To Date and all my contacts are in Now Contact. How do I best transition to the iPhone?
Should I export data from Now to the Apple applications and forget about Now Up To Date and Now Contact?
Any help and instruction would be great. I am ready to leave my treo behind!

I bought Numbers because my Excel files would not work with Mavericks. How can I import a non-functioning Excel file into numbers? (As of now, the file NAME transfers but data does not.)

HI Dave,
I'm surprised you get no message when you attempt opening the Excel document in Numbers.
I'm assuming Numbers 3.1, since you are running Mavericks.
Does the Numbers file that opens show any content?
Does it contain a table?
How large?
Does it contain more than one tab (indicating more than one sheet)?
Do those other tabs contain a table?
Have you checked those tables for data content?
There have been cases in the past of imported documents opening with white text on a white background, giving the appearance of containing nothing. Check for this by selecting a block of cells, then applying a Fill colour or a Text colour using the Format button (paintbrush).
I'd also suggest attempting to open the Excel files using LibreOffice, which can be downloaded from the linked website.
Regards,
Barry

I am using Windows 8.1 i have an External Hard Disk and one drive is now inaccessible due to sudden power failure few days ago. Now it shows "Data error (Cyclic redundancy check)". I want all my important files and Pics. How ?

Hi,
I am using Windows 8.1
I have an External Hard Disk i have partitioned it to 4 parts.
One drive is now inaccessible due to sudden power failure while listening Music from that drive few days ago.
Now it shows "Data error (Cyclic redundancy check)".
I tried all the procedures provided here like
chkdsk /f, diskpart, rescan etc
but no result :( (i mean all processes failed. They could not detect the drive).
Please help me to get those data, pictures and project files.
thank you

Trying to import boujou .ma tracking data into after effects, seems like it doesn't support the file.

I have tried everything to try and get this to work; i have tried multiple settings in boujou, i have imported the .ma file into maya and exported with baked keyframes and only the camera selected etc. I don't know what i'm doing wrong. I am wondering whether Adobe has cut support for .ma files altogether, which is a real pain in my *** as the built in 3d track just isn't good enough. I have tried dragging the file into after effects, i have tried importing it neither of which do anything. The .ma files don't even show up, i have to select 'all files' under the file type when i choose import to even see the files, and when i click them it doesn't recognize it as tracking data, it'll try and import it as a .PNG file or something. I can't seem to find any plugins that would enable me to import .ma files. I just need that tracking data as a Camera in my scene and i don't care how it is done. Additionally, i have tried exporting as a .txt file and copying and pasting that data into a camera, which doesn't work (unless im doing it completely wrong).
Thankyou for reading

I also experience this problem. My mp4 clips has been taken with a Samsung NV24HD camera and are HD (720p). I haven't tried to convert these clips but I think it should not be necessary since I can play them in quick time. However I have perian installed, perhaps that's why they play in quick time? The next question is then: Is there a similar plugin to iMovie?
