Export from Entourage to Outlook

Hi. I'm sorry, this is not related to Mail but I was wondering if anyone knows how to export Entourage emails to Outlook. Even better, how to keep them synchronized!
I have to travel with a PC (hate it), and would like to be able to take my emails with me...

By the way, I found the answer:
1) Install Eudora Mail Lite on your Windows machine (free)
2) Drag each mail folder from Entourage onto your desktop (create a folder for this purpose)
3) Import into Eudora
4) Open each folder in Eudora. This activates the folder.
5) Open Outlook Express. Use the IMPORT function to import the file into Outlook Express.
6) Open Outlook. Import from Outlook Express.
Bingo.

  • Exporting from Entourage to Mac Mail

    I have a large Entourage inbox. Thousands of Emails. When I try to export from Entourage everything seems to work fine. But, when I import, only about a third come through. Is there a sure fire way to get all emails from Entourage to Mac Mail. I am using Mountain Lion.

    Alex,
    This thread is getting unbelievably messy for what originally was such a simple question. Nowhere did I say that the procedure I suggested was meant for a particular type of account or mailbox. It allows any messages to be exported in standard mbox format. It’s Stanley who mentioned IMAP as an alternative procedure to transfer mail between mail clients, and what I said in the post you’re replying to is precisely that IMAP has nothing to do with what I was talking about...
    What does “suitable for archiving” mean? If you have any questions that have nothing to do with the problem of transferring mail from Mail to Entourage, which is what we’re supposed to be talking about here, please either find a thread that discusses the same questions or start a new topic to properly discuss them in their own thread instead of hijacking someone else’s thread. Here is a recent example of such a thread:

  • Exporting from Entourage to Address Book and iCal

    Dear All,
    I have a corrupt Entourage database which is making syncing to my iPhone through the Apple apps impossible. as such and with a huge leap of faith to mobileme I'm ditching Entourage.
    Anybody got any easy ways to export the contacts from Entourage to Address Book?
    On iCal I tried the import from Entourage feature but three weeks later (I kid not) it still hadn't completed so I'm giving up on calendar and that is probably a result of the corrupt database.
    Anyway, any help would be hugely appreciated!
    Cheers and happy new year,
    Paul.

    Like iCal Mail will import from Entourage. Just select that option from
    Mail's File menu, then click on the Entourage import option.

  • Migrate email from Entourage to Outlook

    Hi,
    I sold my Macbook so I am getting a Dell but I need to tranfer my email from Entourage to Outllok.
    I really need help. Thank you

    BIS doesnt actually download email from your POP3 account, it will still exist on the server so just setup the POP3 account in outlook and download the email directly. If you still wish to keep the email on your blackberry ensure you tick the option "leave mail on server" in the account options in Outlook. 

  • Can't export from Entourage

    Any attempt to export yields an error message saying that it can't continue because an email is corrupted, and that the database needs rebuilding using the database utility.
    Did that. Verified it. Still get the same prob during export.
    Any ideas?

    Every e-mail client has its strengths and weaknesses. For one attachments and HTML support varies by client, and while some newer ones support new web browser info better, plain text is still the only reliable means of sending e-mail. Your idea of doing a year at a time mitigates the risk of data loss, though if you haven't backed up from prior to the data corruption, until you clean up the e-mail you risk loss of data in the e-mail. This is another reason to keep a copy on the server. At least it is not then at the mercy of the application doing e-mail and more at the mercy of the internet provider staying stable. Really depends whom you think is more reliable.

  • Address Book Importing From Entourage

    Hello,
    With the latest version of Microsoft Office on my Mac Pro and MacBook Pro, when I export from Entourage to import into Address Book, there is a problem with some data loss. It seems as if not all telephone numbers and email addresses are imported. The tab delimited text file that Entourage creates looks normal when viewing the information from Address Book prior to importing, but some of the data is left out anyway. All other data (addresses, notes, etc...) seems OK. Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Entourage can export vCards which can be directly imported by Address Book. Simply select all your Entourage contacts and drag them into an empty folder on your Desktop. This will give you a folder full of vCards. Import them directly into Address Book.

  • Problems Migrating from Entourage 2004 to All-Mac Apps (Mail, Address Bk)

    Greetings All,
    Background: After careful consideration, I've moved from a Treo 650 and Entourage 2004 scenario to the new iPhone and all-Mac Apps platform.
    It hasn't gone easily: lots of missing, critical data (below).
    I don't understand why thousands of business people aren't posting about this: my data is invaluable, and compromised by chunks of it missing.
    I have now spent about 15 hours researching this, and posted in several Google Groups. It's rather tedious, and I have lots of friendly people answering rather than people with answers. I like friendly people, but seriously, I'd rather have a hostile person who knows how to do this at this point.
    I have read in several places of the scripts of a Paul Berkowitz called "Export-Import Entourage 1310," but the documentation provided doesn't make clear these issues are addressed.
    I have written (five times) Mark/Space regarding their Missing Sync for the iPhone, but they have reading-comprehension issues, and I'm still not clear if they can get the notes from either my old Treo 650 via it into my iPhone.
    Here is what is missing:
    a) Can Paul's scripts (or anyone's!) re-export/merge Contacts such
    that categorized/grouped are preserved? This is of great importance.
    b) Will it export Entourage's notes, and will they be
    correctly titled, and in a useful place on the iPhone? (I have about
    400 notes), again categorized?
    c) Any way to export my Entourage filters/rules to Apple's Mail?
    d) Any way to export the large *mailing lists* (groups) I had in
    Entourage to Apple's Mail?
    Thank you in advance for your informed answers, and I must say that this has been as annoying as Apple thinking we can't figure that when AT&T raised the rates, the savings on the new phone was wiped out.
    Think Better, Apple. If you're trying to get us to use your platform, document how to make the switch.
    Thanks,

    Hey Kevin, sorry for the deafening silence. I can trade you two possible solutions for your secret elegant solution, how about that?
    It turns out I have done the exact same thing you've done: I'm going from Entourage 2004/Treo 680 to Apple apps/Toodledo/iPhone. (Getting rid of Entourage altogether has more to do with the difficulty of using Entourage for my small business on the Mac than the iPhone switch.)
    So, there are 2 Applescripts available that deal with moving contact groups and categories to the Mac Address Book.
    The first is a script from Paul Berkowitz called Sync-Entourage Address Book. This script was developed before Microsoft turned on Sync Services within Entourage, and was intended to fill that gap. It purportedly can copy over contacts, categories and groups from Entourage to Address Book. It has special features for handling both categories and groups simultaneously. The latest version available is from Feb. 2006, and purports to work with Panther and Tiger, but there's no info on whether it works with Leopard. Also, there's no telling whether it will work simultaneously with Apple sync services. (I would guess not.) Berkowitz is not answering emails or responding in Microsoft forums anymore; according to one of the other Entourage MVPs, he is too busy with his day job, so this is apparently all the information there is. If you want to take a chance, the script is here:
    http://homepage.mac.com/WebObjects/FileSharing.woa/69/wo/1XKAw6Pv2qUMw3xZ.1/0.2. 1.2.26.31.97.9.35.0.1.1.1?user=berkowit28&fpath=Sync%20Entourage-Address%20Book& templatefn=FileSharing.html
    There is another (free!) Applescript from a guy named Jon Nathan called Sync Entourage & AB Groups, that syncs Groups only. It is designed to work with Apple Sync Services, and Nathan has written me that it is up-to-date and does work with Leopard. He also wrote me that you can get an idea of how long it will take in this fashion:
    "If you open the script in the Script Editor, switch to the "Event Log" tab
    at the bottom of the script window, then run the script from here by
    clicking the "Run" button, you can watch in real time as it processes your
    contacts and you can get a sense of how long it will take to process your
    contacts. This will take some time with that many contacts & groups so it's
    probably best to run it while you can do something else like eat lunch."
    Nathan's script is available here:
    http://www.jonn8.com/html/SyncEntourageABGroups.html
    So, some answers to your questions about note exporting from Entourage:
    For tasks and notes, I decided to use two iPhone apps from a company called Appigo: Todo and Notebook. Both apps store tasks and notes locally on the iPhone, interact with each other, and can sync to a Web service called Toodledo. Toodledo can import CSV files to their (under-featured, hopefully to be improved) Web notebook, and from there, you can bring them into Notebook on the iPhone. (Notebook works great on the iPhone and you will be loving it a lot more that the Memo app on your Palm, trust me.) In Toodledo, Todo and Notebook, you use folders in place of the categories you had in Entourage, for both tasks and notes.
    Unfortunately, I had a very frustrating time getting my 300+ notes out of Entourage using Berkowitz's import-export scripts, but I did figure it out, and can save you some time if your interested. (You will need TextWrangler in addition to the Berkowitz scripts.)
    As far as tasks go, I only have about 30, so it was no big deal to enter them by hand in Toodledo and bring them onto the iPhone with Todo. (FYI, Toodledo's basic Web service is free, you pay an annual subscription fee if you want your stuff encrypted on their servers.)
    The Toodledo developer has an active forum, and the Appigo guys have Google Groups for both apps. Both Appigo and Toodledo respond directly and quickly to feature requests, questions, etc.
    So how's that? What you got for me?

  • Moving Contacts from Windows XP Outlook to Mac Leopard Entourage

    Is this possible? Can you provide directions? I have Bootcamp if it helps. Thanks.
    Louis

    Latan:
    There is a way of importing contacts from Windows XP Outlook to Mac Leopard Entourage and that is by saving a file in a Text - comma separated values and then importing into Entourage.
    Here is how:
    1. Open Outlook in Windows
    2. Click on File and then *Import and Export*
    3. Choose *Export to a file* and hit Next
    4. Choose *Comma Separated Values (Windows)* and hit Next
    5. Then highlight Contacts and hit Next
    6. Choose a filename and a place to save the exported file and hit Next
    7. Confirm with a check mark next to *Export "Contacts" from folder: Contacts* and hit Finish
    The above will have generated a file with the exported contacts from Outlook. Remember its name and location on the HD.
    1. Open Entourage in Leopard
    2. Go to File and choose Import
    3. Place a check mark on *Contacts or Messages from a text file* and click the *Right Arrow* at the bottom right of the window.
    4. Place a check mark on *Import contacts from a tab- or comma-delimited text file* and click on the *Right Arrow* at the bottom right of the window.
    5. Locate the file that you created above and highlight it in the next window. Once done then hit Import
    That should bring in all the contacts into Entourage.
    The above instructions are for importing outlook contacts into Entourage (Office 2008 for Mac). If you have any other version then it should still work however the menu choices may be slightly different.

  • Export from Windows Outlook into Mac Contacts

    Sorry if this has been addressed earlier; I searched but couldn't find this specific matter.
    Just purchased the Verizon iPhone for my wife. She had a prior AT&T iPhone, synched at office, where she works on Windows ... we are syncing the new one here at home on my iMac. I thought it would be a simple matter to export her contacts from the office Outlook (Windows) and import to the iMac's Contacts..BUT they don't appear to make use of any single standardized format. The Windows Outlook could export to PST (which is what it uses), or to Excel or Access. But Mac OS Contacts doesn't import from either of those.
    I'd like to avoid, for obvious reasons, having to re-key all 800+ contacts into the system.
    Is there an obvious solution that I've overlooked?
    Thanks

    Since all Microsoft does is copy other's work, Microsoft copied Apple's lead as usual and incorporated vCard support with Outlook. Outlook includes an option to forward all contacts in the Outlook address book as separate vCard attachments to an email. Your wife can forward the email with the vCard attachments to a personal email address that she accesses with the Mail.app on her Mac or she can send it to herself with the work email address if she also accesses her work email address wit the Mail.app on her Mac. Save the separate vCard attachments received with the email to a folder created on the Desktop. Use the Address Book import feature choosing vCard navigating to the folder where the vCard attachments saved from the received email.
    I didn't see that in her Outlook (she does have, I think, a fairly old version of Outlook). ... I DID send as e-mail attachments some individual vCard attachments, about 20, and was easily able to import them into our home Mac's Address Book. Are you saying there should be (or IS) the ability to export all 800+ address cards as vCard? That's what I didn't see (and believe me, I looked).

    Or if the contacts with her Verizon iPhone have been synced with Outlook, she can sync her Verizon iPhone contacts direct with the Address Book on her Mac via the iTunes sync process. If the Address Book on her Mac is used for contacts, she will be provided a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which she wants to select.
    I did synch her new Verizon iPhone already with iTunes here at home on our Mac. Didn't see this particular list of contacts at the time. I'll take a look this evening again (she's at work as I write this). Her iPhone, I know, shows under Contacts all of the entries I have on my own (AT&T) iPhone, the same ones that are in the Address Book, AS WELL AS a separate Contacts list, which is the set of 800+ from her Outlook at work.
    So, yes, it would seem as if there should be a way. "So close and yet so far."
    Thanks, Allan, for the suggestions.

    I'm unable to open vCard exported from MS Outlook for Mac (2011) which adheres all requirements.

    vCards exported from Outlook are not compatible with iCloud if that's what you're trying to import it to.  You'll have to do something like create a Gmail account, then export your Outlook contacts to Gmail (see http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/export-outlook-contacts-to-google -gmail-HA001148902.aspx), then export the contacts from Gmail as a vCard (see https://support.google.com/mail/answer/24911?hl=en) and import it to iCloud (see http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3605).

  • How to import a contact into an existing address book? contact is exported from outlook.

    I have created 3 address books. I want to import new contacts into these address books selectively.
    I tried importing a contact that was exported from Outlook as a v card. It worked fine except that it created the new contact as yet another new address book!

    Importing contacts does create a new address book. Then just drag and drop the contacts into the book of your choice and delete the new book when it is empty.
