Export from PO desktop / import into Outlook ... HOW?

PalmOne Centro
Windows Vista Home Premium
Outlook 2010
iTunes (latest vestions)
iPhone 3gs
We’ve been trying to export PalmOne desktop info (contacts; calendar; memo) over into our iPhone.
We are not in possession of the Centro phone any more; but we have all the info on a computer.
After multiple efforts and attempts, (including going out and buying our own authorized copy of Outlook, expressly for this purpose) we took the computer and everything into the AT&T store Saturday, being told they could probably assist with the export/import; but after giving it a try, they decided they were unable to help, and suggested we take the operation to the nearby Apple store; we did; a technician there spent a good deal of time working on it.
He concluded that the only option we could use to export PalmOne desktop data into Outlook is to choose “Export to Vcard”; but when doing this, he was only able to transfer one contact at a time. He was unable to find a way to export a batch .. or do a global command .. or select all …etc.,  etc.
How do we export our contact list [altogether] from PalmOne Desktop into Outlook?
I understand it must go into Outlook first, then into ITunes, and then finally, it can be imported into the iPhone which is already synched to our computer).
A website I found describes the operation differently; advising selection of the “export” option and opening the *.csv file in Excel; the importing it into Outlook; tried many, many different options and selections … what opens up in Outlook is garbled and incomplete.
So that was of no use.
Thanks for any help!
Post relates to: Centro (AT&T)

I just purchased an iPhone and had similar frustrations. Despite selecting all my contacts only the first contact was included in the vCard export. In fact, even when I exported in CSV or text formats only the first contact was included in the export. I tried over and over with similar results.
I was using Palm Desktop v6.2.2. I even deleted and reinstalled it. no luck. I have a fairly new computer running Windows 7. I then tried on an older computer with Windows XP and it worked just fine. I was then able to simply  send an email  to myself with the vCard file as an attachment. I opened the attachment on the iPhone and clicked on the vCard attachment ... a few more clicks and the contacts were imported.
The key is that Palm Desktop does not export correctly with Windows 7 nor (it appears according to anvanho's experience) with Windows Vista. By the way, another thing that didn't work - I installed Palm Desktop using XP Mode running in Windows 7. the Desktop installed OK but I couldn't get my Centro to sync using XP Mode.
Good luck

  • Odd frames added to start of audio export from LPX when imported into FCPX

    Running into a weird issue exporting audio out of Logic Pro (10.0.6) for import into FCPX (10.1.1) - Logic is introducing extra frames (varies between 2 to 4 frames) at the front of exported audio, becomes detectable when imported back into FCPX.
    I do a lot of work where I sync music performances on camera that are recorded in audio and MIDI, and have to deliver remixed audio with picture AND a .MID file that all sync. Workflow used to be shoot video on a C100 and another DSLR with either an audio feed or live mic patched to the camera, while Logic recorded the MIDI performance and any ambient audio via separate mics and pres. Shoot always had some kind of "slated" start marker on camera, in camera audio, and in Logic. Camera edits were edited in FCPX, exported as a Quicktime with the "slate" for a start marker, then audio and MIDI handled in Logic.
    This always used to work thru to last fall, when we took a hiatus.
    Upon resuming some final shooting in the last two weeks, our audio edits are always running 2-4 frames behind FCPX. It's a consistent offset for an entire export (so there's no drift, no jitter within the files - but the slate tones might be 2 frames and 17 subframes behind and the whole audio file runs behind.) Another export might be 3 frames 2 subframes behind. Always kind of random in the amount of drift - but never more than 4 frames.
    Tried a test where I imported just the camera audio in Logic as an extracted audio track, then exported same audio file back to the Quicktime but left the original audio in the video - Logic's exported audio ran behind sync from the original.
    Obviously, I'm paying attention to frame rates, sample rates, etc.
    As a test, I exported an XML out of FCPX, imported it into Logic, performed some edits, and used the File>Export>Project to FinalCut Pro XML - so everything matched across the board. Opened the export in FCPX - audio ran behind sync again.
    If it was just audio I was concerned about, I'd just line it up in FCPX and call it done - but my exported MIDI file NEEDS to be in sync with the picture AND the audio... and wasting time calculating the Logic offset error is a huge detour from getting this work done quickly.
    I thought maybe there could be a plug-in issue, but it happened even in the extracted audio from the Quicktime with no plug-ins in any of the signal chains.
    Any ideas?

    Well… here's a clunky workaround.
    It's either a problem with the exported FCPX-XML or the way Logic Pro X interprets the XML.
    The simple test here was to put a clip in the FCPX timeline and export it as an AIFF and then export an XML too.
    Import the XML into Logic, then import the AIFF as a new track. By default the Logic project is 120BPM. By analyzing the xml-based track and the aiff track, the xml track has an added 164 ticks to the beginning of the referenced video-audio.
    Move the playhead to zero, zoom in to the timeline and drag the tick field to 164 then blade all your tracks, then click/drag the bladed tracks to zero. Voila!
    It seems to only affect the first audio file. So for example, when I have 10 video clips in my FCPX timeline, only the first audio clip has the added 164 ticks.
    Now on to the next challenge…
    It's not enough to just de-compound your clips because L and J cuts get referenced to the VIDEO, not the audio underneath.
    So… In FCPX you MUST select each clip and choose Break Apart Clip Items from the Clip Menu. Perhaps this is old news but thought I'd mention it here in case others were having problems.
    Let's hope Apple steps up their xml game and realizes that when I choose export XML-Audio from the xml popup menu… I want it to send the duration of the audio, not the duration of the attached video.
    Ergh! Well… as my friends say… "We're still in the stone age with all this technology."
    Happy editing all!

  • Export from Thunderbird and import into OS X Mail

    Hi guys,
    I'm growing tired of Thunderbird and I want to go back to OS X MAIL.
    Problem is : it doesn't import properly.
    Here's what I've done :
    In OS X MAIL, I select IMPORT and then THUNDERBIRD and finally select the THUNDERBIRD PROFILE FOLDER in my LIBRARY.
    It does work and import emails... but not all of them.
    In fact, it does not import several local mail folders I have in Thunderbird.
    So that's quite a big problem since i need those folders and the emails within them.
    I've looked in Thunderbird for a way to export a clean file, but it doesn't seem like there's even an export feature ?
    Anyway can give me a helping hand ?
    Thanks !

    So that's what I did.
    I took the files in Library/Thunderbird / ... under my profile
    I dumped the .MSF files, and renames the other files to .MBOX
    Then I used the IMPORT function in OS X MAIL
    It seemed to work and I was quite satisfied !
    Until I double check... and realised that a LOT of emails had not been imported, for reasons that I do not quite understand...
    So if you know why, please help !!!!!

  • Exporting all settings for Outlook Desktop so that they can be imported into Outlook

    Hi there,
    I was wondering whether all settings for Outlook Desktop can be exported so that they can be imported into Outlook i.e. .psts, .osts, .pabs, .oabs, .dats, .xmls, .nk2s, .rwzs, .rtfs, .txts, .htms, .dics, .ofts, .srss and .msgs. My Managing Director's Wife is
    unsubscribing from Office 365 in order to use Office Professional 2013 I presume or 2010 perhaps. Your help would be much appreciated.
    Kind regards,
    RocknRollTim
    P.S. I was redirected by a user off the Office 365 Community Forum.

    Hi,
    As per the information and details provided by you, in Outlook, there is not any way to backup Outlook account setting because in all Outlook versions the account settings are kept inside the window registry under this key:
    • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles
    So if you want to create backup of your Outlook account setting, you should have to export that key from your registry and then import it to your new computer.
    To backup Outlook Account setting follow these steps: -
    1. First, go to the Start menu and then at the Run box, type regedit and press Enter.
    2. Under the registry editor right click to Export the Profiles key found inside this location in the registry: 
    • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\
    • e.g: “HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles”
    3. In Outlook 2013 right click to Export the Profile key found under this location in the registry:
    • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Outlook\
    • e.g: “HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Outlook\Profiles key”
    4. Specify the Destination Location and File Name then press Save.
    Correct me if the information that I am having is wrong. I hope this will be helpful for you.
    Thanks and regards

    Same here. I've never had trouble with this function before.

  • Best Quality Export From Final Cut Pro Into After Effects?

    So I converted all my footage into Apple Pro Res 422 (24 p, 1280 x 720) for use in FCP and want to export edited parts into After Effects. What is the best quality export to bring into After Effects and also export from After Effects back into FCP?

    zikade wrote:
    Depending on your storage and what you're up to with your footage I'd recommend uncompressed. Large files but you won't loose any quality. Animation is also lossless if you want to compress your footage. If your drives are not fast enough, go for ProRes HQ from FCP to AE, and Animation the way back...
    Since you've converted to 422, stick with that. You cannot gain anything by exporting from FCP to a codec that has a higher bandwidth such as PRHQ or Animation. You just don't want to go down.
    Rendering out of After Effects going back to FCP jsut use the same base codec. Again, you will gain nothing by using a higher quality codec. However, you may want to use PR4444 or even Animation if you must have an alpha channel. PR4444 uses trillions of colors and you will get an interesting warning when you try to render to it. You can dismiss the warning.
    PR4444 has the distinct advantage of being realtime in FCP7 and X. Animation requires rendering back in teh FCP timeline.

  • Exporting From FCE to IDVD With Chapters How long

    Exporting From FCE to IDVD With Chapters How long will the DVD hold??? if i have an hour and 40 minutes of HD footage all cut together with FCE and has been saved as a movie file, how many hours will IDVD let me burn to it?
    if i run over the allowed amount will it say i need to drop quality, i am editing loads at the moment and dont want to get to the end and it come up with an error message. also will idvd include the chapter markers if i export with them?

    Sure, no problem.
    1. Go to Project > Project Info in iDVD.
    2. Make sure "DVD Type" is set to a single-layer DVD.
    3. Under "Encoding," choose "Best Performance." Is the arrow solidly in the green portion of the quality bar? If so, go ahead and burn your disc.
    4. If not, choose "High Quality." Again, go ahead and burn your disc if the arrow is solidly in the green.
    3. If the arrow still isn't in the green, select Professional Quality. If the arrow's in the green, burn your disc. If not, you'll have to delete some of the menus (scene selection, etc.) or menu content and check again. You should be able to burn up to 2 hours if you don't have a lot of other menu content.

  • Importing a vCal file that was exported from Palm Desktop

    Hopefully someone can help me out here. My wife uses Palm Desktop v4.2.1 to manage her Treo (we share a Mac mini). I figured out how to export the Datebook from Palm Desktop as a vCal file, and then import it into iCal. The problem is, there appears to be an error or corruption happening in the process. Some events are duplicated, while others are recurring every single day even though they weren't originally set that way. On her Treo and in Palm Desktop, the events are correct and appear as they should. So either the Palm Desktop is corrupting the data on the way out, or iCal is misreading it on the way in.
    Has anyone experienced this (or similar) situation and if so, were you able to resolve it? I use iCal to manage my calendar on my iPod Touch (syncing via iTunes), and I'd like to have my wife's calendar on there as well, but not have to import or recreate events one at a time. I should also mention that her Treo 650 is not supported by iSync, so that option is out. Thanks for any suggestions you may have.

    Please allow me to pile on this thread as I, too, am looking for answers to this problem. I am using Palm Desktop 4.2.2 to export my calendar from my Tungsten T3 to something iCal and my new iPhone 3G can understand, but the results so far have been a pig's breakfast of recurrence errors and birthdays that last two days.

  • Workflow for exporting xml from Excel and importing into table in InDesign

    Hello,
    I have worked out how to get data from a .xlsx into a table in InDesign. However, the workflow is still a little clunky and I am looking for way to automate the process further. My current workflow is as follows (files can be download here: http://visual360.co.uk/xml.zip)
    xml is exported from .xlsx by mapping the schema (see what_I_get.xml)
    assign tags to table and individual cells in InDesign
    This is the clunky bit: edit the what_I_get.xml to:
    remove the indentation (this seems necessary as otherwise when I get to stage 4, all the imported text is also indented)
    add tag for table in InDesign (p10_table)
    add tags for individual cells (p10_c11 etc.)
    import the produced what_I_want.xml in the structure panel of InDesign.
    Can anyone point me in the direction of how to automate step 3 above?
    Thanks in advance,
    Nick

    Hi Mike,
    Thanks very much for the reply. I am not at all familiar with XSL/XSLT. I have given it a quick google and it seems like it could be quite a steep learning curve to master. Maybe if I explain the whole context here, it may allow you to point me in the direction of a tutorial that provides a step by step approach to achieve my final goal. Alternatively, you may be able to suggest a whole new workflow.
    I am in the process of updating this document: http://www.ncl.ac.uk/students/insessional/assets/documents/IS_Brochure_2014-15.pdf
    The tables on pages 10-21 contain lots and lots of repeated information. We want the layout to in this format so that each group of students has all the information relevant to them on a single double spread. However, the challenge of using this approach is that it is very high maintenance to ensure the duplicated information is kept in sync - even using a copy / paste approach.
    I was hoping to overcome this by using a single source of data (eg. a spreadsheet) which would then feed into the InDesign. This workflow seems to be overcomplicated by the apparent need to use xml as the "middle-man".
    Ideally, I would like to press the export button in Excel and get this information into the the correct cells in the tables on pages 10-21 without a significant amount of manual labour - after all, my reasons for investigating an automated approach in the first place was to avoid the manual entering of data ie. the scope for error...
    An alternative approach maybe to skip Excel altogether and just use .xml. However, I am not sure that this is possible as Indesign only seems to allow you to import each element once. Maybe you could correct me here...
    I am happy to invest a certain amount of time in developing this approach as once it is in place, it will save a huge of proof-reading time year after year, especially as inconsistencies still persist despite our best efforts to weed them out.
    If you could let me know your thoughts on this and maybe identify a tutorial that would help me, I would be extremely grateful.
    Thanks again!
    Nick

  • Can i drag a clip from the desktop directly into the timeline without importing it

    its seems so easy now
    maybe I've been blind to this option before on 10.1.1
    simply dragging  from the desktop or its source a clip to the story/ timeline itself not having to use   file> import media
    which is a lot of steps IMHO
    i notice when i do it also enters the library above where clips are seen and read to be dragged on the story line
    so
    is this incorrect ?
    thanks
    anyone

    By dragging it into the timeline you're importing it based on your import preferences. Great for single clips.
