Export to E-Mail

I want to clarify a previous question about e-mailing from within Lr.
When I export a photo to email, and the "Send To: and Subject:
Window is opened the "Include caption metadata as a description label" is grayed out, even though I assigned a caption to the photo.
Is there a way to activate this check box?
I am using Outlook 2010 as my e-mail client.
Is this function not available in Outlook?
I do not use an internet service such as G-mail.
I'm curious, is this check box available in G-mail etc.
Thanks,
Roger

MAPI Mailer is a cool way to go ..

Exporting multiple e-mails as .pdf

I'm responsible for coordinating a multi-author, book-writing project and I've been asked to store all e-mail correspondences in a fashion that allows all of the authors and project managers to access the e-mails. I have a shared folder set up on my Google drive that allows all the users to access shared files which is working fantastically, but I can't find a way to export large quantities of e-mails at the same time that also works for Google drive.
After a quick Google search I found this site which provided instructions on how to install this set of scripts which allowed me to archive my selected e-mails as .rtf files with their attachments. It works great and allows me to customize the naming of the files to allow other authors to easily locate a specific e-mail. It names each file "From %f to %t - %s - %M %d, %Y.rtf" where %t is the recipient, %f is the sender, %s is the subject/thread topic and %M %d, %Y is Month day, year (eg To John Smith from Jane Doe - Book Project - December 12, 2012.rtf).
Unfortunately, after uploading the folder containing all these .rtf files I found out that .rtf can't be viewed on Google and must be downloaded then opened on the user's computer. To fix this I tried having Google automatically convert the files to Google docs as it uploaded the files, but this didn't work and even if it did I fear the files would lose their attachments.
I then tried searching for scripts that would allow me to change all of the .rtf files to .pdf. I found and tried a few, but they all had problems (the script would only operate on pre Mountain Lion, the requires Word for Mac, etc.)
Then I tried finding a script that would work like the first successful one, but export the files as .pdf rather than .rtf. I couldn't find anything, but found an article that reminded me I could print to .pdf from mail ("Save as PDF..." in the system print window). I tried doing this, but after 'printing' the first of all the e-mails an error box pops up and no more e-mails 'print.' If I "Open PDF in Preview" I can successfully save all of the e-mails as .pdf, but their file names are all Preview of "<e-mail subject>".pdf which isn't helpful because nearly all correspondences in the group have a subject like "Book" or "Book Project" meaning it'd be impossible to determine which e-mail is which by the .pdf filename.
I feel like their are a lot of different routes I can take to solve this problem, I just need help finding the components:
1. Use the first successful script to export as .rtf, then use another script to convert them to .pdf. This would be the best because it will allow me to use a useful filenaming system. To do this I need a script that can convert .rtf to .pdf on my system.
2. Find a script like the first, successful script I used that allows me to export the e-mails as a .pdf using the subject, to/from, etc. as the filename.
3. Open PDF in Preview, save, then use a script to rename all the files by extracting the subject, to/from and date from the .pdfs. To do this I need a script that can find the subject, etc. in the .pdf and use that data to change the file name. (I highly doubt such a script exists and I don't have the script-writing skills to create one myself.)
4. Any other solution that allows me to take a lot of e-mails from my Mail app and upload them to my Google drive while maintaining attachments and generating logical filenames.
5. Any other solution that makes it possible for me to make correspondences available for all authors to access (keeping in mind that cross-platform compatibility is essential).
Suggestions?

I found your first suggestion while doing a Google search. That post was made in mid-2011, almost a year before Mountain Lion released. Apple changed the way scripts work in Mountain Lion and this script no longer works.
As far as I can tell, the second solution only works for printing one e-mail to a .pdf at a time and doesn't support batch filenaming.

None of my apple apps can export files, including Mail, iPhoto, Aperture and Preview.

None of my apple apps can export files, including Mail, iPhoto, Aperture and Preview. When I try to export a file from any of these programs, the app hangs for a few seconds and then does nothing, not even open an export dialogue. Same thing happens when I try to attach a file to an email. Also, maybe related and maybe not, Photoshop will crash after the splash screen. All of these app function properly when using a different User Account.
I've tried deleting my application preferences in my user library and when that didn't work, I deleted my account and then created a new one that used the same user directory, which still didn't fix anything.
I don't really want to make a new user from scratch and have to re-enter license numbers, re-calibrate monitors, recover bookmarks, contancts, etc. etc. if I don't have to, so I would be grateful for any advice.
Thanks!

Export feature in Mail.app literally does nothing?

I used to use the export feature in Mail.app fairly frequently to back up my GMail and some other email to a local disk.
Now the export feature seems to do almost literally nothing.
No matter what account, folder, sub-folder, or "mailbox" I choose, when I export it, I end up with 3 files: Info.plist and table_of_contents, both of which are trivially small (maybe 30 to 200 bytes) and an mbox file, which should contain my emails, but it's zero bytes.
Is anyone else seeing this problem?

Have you applied the latest Mail update from the Apple Downloads site: Mail Update for Mavericks. This Apple document describes the fixes: OS X: About Mail Update for Mavericks

Exporting to Unix mail boxes and lots of other problems

The newer themailer gets the worse it gets. The mailer won't do moves successfully, won't get and save all xcontents all the time as it should, delays showing mail it gets, and on and on. I want to export all of my emails (100,000 or so of them) to Unix email formats so I can escape the crappy applicaiton and go back to elm or some other mailer. How do I export to Unix mail box format? Don't bother to tell me to drag and drop to the desktop. It does not do the translation!

To convert to mbox, emlxconvert says it will do the job.
I can't make head nor tail of the other problems you say you are having. (I happily used elm for 15 years before switching to Mail.app about 2 years ago, but now you couldn't pay me to go back.)

Is there a way to get an apple mail folder exported to outlook mail folder structure? I'm using Gmail on my IMAC and have a PC for work. Want to share folder structure between systems.

Is there a way to get an apple mail folder exported to outlook mail folder structure? I'm using Gmail on my IMAC and have a PC for work. Want to share folder structure between systems.

Use following steps to import apple mail to outlook:
Choose Mailbox->Export Mailbox, or choose Export Mailbox from the Action pop-up menu
Choose a folder or create a new folder where you want to store the exported mailbox.
Outlook for Mac: Choose File->Import Mailboxes. Select the mail application you want to import messages from.
If it does not work then you should use third party apple mail to pst applications. You can easily search in Google about these applications.

Exporting OS X Mail from Mountain Lion to Snow Leopard

After upgrading to Mountain Lion, I partitioned my iMac HD to have two partitions: Macintosh HD has Mountain Lion; I reinstalled Snow Leopard on Macintosh HD 2. Best part: you can access your user-created files from EITHER disk partition. But not so OS X Mail. I wanted to revert to Snow Leopard, since I don't like the iOS-like Mountain Lion (swipe THIS!), but Mail was a problem since all my Snow Leopard Mail was successfully migrated over to Mountain Lion during upgrade. But I think I found a way to Export Mail from ML to (a clean install of) SL.
Try this:
1. Open Mail in ML. For each folder you wish to have back in SL, Export it to your ML Desktop as an .mbox file. Depending on the folder size, this can take from a few seconds to several minutes. You'll see an .mbox icon for the particular folder on your Desktop. If the word "partial" appears between the folder name and the .mbox suffix, wait a few moments for the Export to complete, at which time the word "partial" will disappear. E.g., for a folder named "Mary", if it's a huge one, the icon will first appear as "Mary.partial.mbox"; when the Export is done, you'll see "Mary.mbox".
2. When you've Exported all your desired folders as above, you can exit ML and re-start your Mac in SL. Open Mail in Snow Leopard, and once again, for each file you just Exported in ML to the Desktop there, select "Import Data From Apple Mail" and choose the folder from the Desktop in ML to which your mboxes were Exported. When the Import starts, you can see via a progress bar how far along it is. When done, you'll see a new folder in your SL Mail called "Import"; click on it to reveal the folder you just Imported!
3. Then drag the folder you just Imported out of the Import folder to "On My Mac" in SL Mail; you can then delete the Import folder.
4. Repeat until all your folders are where you want them (in SL).
5. When you have time, go back into ML and clear all those .mbox files from your Desktop.
There MAY be an easier way, but this is what worked for me.

The iOS view vs classic view in Mail is not the problem; I've already configured for classic view.
Mountain Lion itself is.
My short list (to date) of crappy Mountain Lion behavior; items marked with a double asterisk (**)represent the worst of Mountain Lion for me.
** No up/down arrows in scroll bar slider;
Expose` not as easy to navigate as in Snow Leopard;
Mail does not request passwords for either receive or send;
No "Save Draft" icon in Mail compose window (workaround: use command-s);
"Save As" selection missing in most app menus;
No separate Search window in Safari (workaround: use Firefox or Opera);
** Can't export Mail from Mountain Lion into Snow Leopard if downgrading (I compiled this list before I stumbled on the method in this thread, but I'd prefer to effect this with Unix symbolic links);
iWork 09 seems to have "circled the wagons" re compatibility with MS Office or LibreOffice (workaround: just use Libreoffice);

The data is gone, unless someone knows how to pull data out of your iPad. The fact is, the iPad isn't made to do what you're trying to do. Create mission critical documents on your real computer that backs up data frequently. Sorry.

Export headers with mail

Anyone can help me!!
Thanks a lot!

This should work without any problem.

Exporting images in Mail to Iphoto

Thanks for your help -

Drag the pics from the Mail window to the desktop, then import them into iPhoto using File -> Add to Library.

Exporting addresses from mail to yahoo

How can I export my address list from mail to btinternet in Yahoo I have tried making a folder but this does not export please advise
I need my updated addresses online. from a foreign computer

Hello Rich.
The Apple Address Book exports contacts as vCard files only. The Address Book can export all contacts as a single vCard file (which is what your have) or it can export each contact as a separate vCard file which you should be able to import into your Windows email client since most support/work with the vCard format.
Tell the previous admin to do this.
To create multiple vCards at the same time, hold the Option key when dragging multiple selected cards out of the Address Book window to a created folder. The separate vCard files can be attached to an email message sent to you.
If your email client does not support/work with the vCard format when each contact is provided as a separate vCard file instead of all exported as a single vCard file, tell the admin to use Address Book Exporter utility.

Exporting photos from mail to iPhoto

If someone sends me a photo in an e-mail (not an attachment) how do I export the photo to my iPhoto library?

If someone sends me a photo in an e-mail (not an
attachment) how do I export the photo to my iPhoto
library?
There are several ways to do this:
(1) put your pointer on the picture, hold down the mouse and drag out of the Mail window onto your Desktop. This will create a new icon on your Desktop with a name like "image...jpg". Drag this to the icon of iPhoto which is in your Dock.
(2) believe it or not, ALL photos ARE attachments. Double-click on the e-mail message to open it in a separate window. Under the Headings (To: , Date:, Subject:, etc.) it will list how many attachments there are. To the right of this is a Save button. Click and hold this. The last item should be "Add to iPhoto". Click on this, and your photo(s) will be put in iPhot.
Hope this helps!

MS Outlook export to Mac mail

May I know how to export email from Microsoft Outlook to Mac mail? It is because I cannot find a way to do it, please help.

Hi wajic,
Try http://www.techhit.com/outlook/exportimport_outlookmac.html
I had exactly the same problem and frustrations, but MessageSave solved my problem in 2-3 hours from spotting it on Google to importing successfully all my emails from my Outlook to MAC APPLE Mail (or MS Entourage, if you like).
However, it has a slight cost ... but doesn't everything these days , but the good news is a 40% discount for MAC users at the moment.
I paid £23.03 which I thought was good value for money, considering it worked. It allows exports of Messages (including attachments), Contacts and Calendar for import into MAC Mail or MS Entourage.
Try the evaluation copy (limited to 50 messages) and judge for yourself.
Hope this was helpful
Regards

Problems exporting historic Apple Mail messages to Gmail

Hi folks,
I am in the process of leaving Verizon for another provider and wanted to use the opportunity to move to Gmail. I would like to export roughly 4,000 historic messages that I have on Apple Mail 2.5 to Gmail. I have set up Gmail on Apple Mail as an IMAP account as I think this is necessary for the export process (though going forward I will generally want to use the Gmail site to access email rather than using my Apple Mail).
While it was simple to import my verizon.net emails to Gmail, I am stuck on how to get the many older messages on Apple Mail exported.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? (And please be very specific! For example, though I generally have been informed that I should be able to "drag and drop" the historic messages, it is not at all clear to me what folders I need to access to do so, or how and where to drag them.)
Sorry to be so dim on what seems like not a terribly difficult question!

It is possible to do this without external tools, but it is a tremendous faff. See
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2011-macoutlook/import-ema il-from-mail-to-outlook-2011/5e858173-e1f4-4adc-99d7-253cc467169d?page=2 for details.
The easiest way, however, is to use Mail Exporter Pro https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mail-exporter-pro/id675131616?mt=12 which will convert the email for you from one format to the other, and comes with an excellent manual.
A third possibility is to connect Apple Mail to an email account via IMAP (this doesn’t have to be your usual account, you can just create a Gmail account for the purpose) . Copy all the messages into it and they will be uploaded. Then connect Outlook 2011 to the same account, via IMAP again, and let the messages download, then copy them to wherever you want to keep them and disconnect from that account. This is slow but preserves the attributes of your email (e.g. read/unead) better than any other method.
