How do I complete an email mail merge?

TI used to be able to send emails in a campaign on word through my PC by the below, but i cannot seem to do from my Mac. Any ideas?
type your email message including signature in a new Microsoft Word document; go to:
Tools > Letters and Mailings > Mail Merge
Select Email messages on the sidebar on the right, click Next
Select Use the current document on the sidebar, click Next
Select Use an existing list, click Browse…
Find the prepared spreadsheet, click Open
Choose the worksheet to use within the spreadsheet
Verify the list of recipients, click Ok
Click Next
To insert a field into the message, place the cursor where the field should go, click More items…
Select the field, click Insert; choose another field and repeat, or click Close;
Click Next
Verify the message appears accurately for various recipients by clicking the double arrows on the sidebar; make any necessary changes, click Next
Click Electronic Mail…
Select the email field from the To: pull down menu
Type your desired subject

The only way that I currently know of to remove old or incorrect email addresses is to restore the device back to factory defaults, which is somewhat extreme. You can try leaving feedback, and hopefully one day we'll get a way of editing them http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

Email mail merger - apostrophe changes to the number 1

Good morning
I have created an email mail merge in Word to be sent via Outlook. Some apostrophes (not all - only those 2/3 down the document) appear in the sent email as the number 1. I have tried saving the Word document as an HTM and then sending but the same thing occurs. The email is being sent as an HTML (text does not present well).
Any solutions?
Thanks
Judi

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iDevice?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

Email Mail Merge using mail

I run a small business and have 3,000 clients on my email database and i am having issues in sending large mail shots using mail. Before i changed to a mac i used to be able to use an excel database with outlook which i could send a mass email mail shot with a few clicks and it send each client an individual email.
I can't seem to get this to work using mail so i have to send 1 email with 20 or so applicants per email(as my broadband supplier limits me to 25 applicants per email) which is very time consuming and also not as profesional.
Is there a way round this at all or a program which i can run with mail?
Thanks in advance

I've been wrestling with the same problem. I googled a number of related keywords, and found several programs that will handle "mail-merge" tasks. I downloaded two demos. The first is SerialMailer, and it can be found at http://www.falkon-ware.com/SerialMailer/ I gave it one trial and it appears easy to use and adequate to the limited tasks for which I need it. You can import e-mail addresses from Apple's Address Book, or a number of other formatted files. It costs $29.95. The other one I have only take a glance at. It is Max Bulk Mailer, and can be found at http://www.maxprog.com/site/software/internet-marketing/mass-bulk-emailersheetus.php
It looks to be more flexible and powerful and a bit more polished that SearialMailer, but it costs $49.90 for the standard version and $59.90 for the Pro version. The cheaper program looked like all I needed so I didn't test the more expensive one any further. My guess is that one of these (or another you might find with a google search) will take care of your mail merge needs quite handily, and for not much money.

How do I create group email mailing lists?

How do I create a group email mailing list?

Open Contacts - its in the Applications folder.
In the menu bar click File, and select New Group. In the left column of Contacts there will be a new item called untitled group. (You can change the name.)
Next click All Contacts on the left, and drag and drop the names you want in the new group.
To send an email to the group you start a new message and type the group name in the To: field.

How do you make labels from mail merger

I have a list of names and address on excel-how do can I turn them into labels via mail merger or some other way

BDAqua wrote:
Do you have these addresses in Address Book, or a way to Import them to AB?
At the very least it's in Excel. One can the save an Excel file as CSV or tab-delimited. Address Book can import CSV or tab-delimited. I checked the Help docs , although I think I did it once before when getting contacts off a cell. phone (no iSync) and into Address Book.
HRM130, what other programs do you have? If you have Excel, do you have Word? You can also do the merge with Word.
In Word 2011, under "Tools", there "Labels...". (In 2008 I think it's in a similar place.) You select or create the template for the labels, then you select the Excel file as the the datasource. You can then play around a bit with which fields for the merge and how they are positioned on the screen -- you can preview those modifications. Then once you're happy you let the merge rip and you get a Word document with all the labels, which you can fine tune, e.g. set everything to all caps, etc.

How to get pages ver 5 mail merge to work using numbers as a data source

As a long time user of MS Word and Excel, I use the mail mail merge feature to create invoices by merging client contact info into the invoice template. At the end of Nov-2013, I changed to a new-to-me MBP-15. After purtchasing and downloading Pages, Numbers and Keynotes, I had difficulty using my Word/Excel files as a merge in Pages and Numbers. Apple support has told me that the feature no longer works in Pages/Numbers version 5 in the OS 10.9 op-sys. What a BIG disappointment. I've begun to find some work arounds, but they are a pain in the @$$.
Does anyone have any updates on this issue?
Has anyone found a simple to use work around?
Any help is appreciated.

Apple has removed over 90 features from Pages 5.

Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Archive/trash Pages 5 and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

How can Yahoo's recent email mail hack impact mail?

1/31/14 - How will Yahoo!'s recent email hack impact Mac mail users?

Not sure why you're posting this in the unrelated iCloud forum.
Apple Mail users who use Yahoo mail are impacted in the same way as everyone else impacted by it.

Need to send an email to 3,000 receipients how do i do this using mail?

I am a small business and we have about 3,000 email contacts on our books. Occasionally we like to send them an email to show offers etc. Can anyone let me know the best way i could do this? at the moment my broadband supplier only allows me to send 20 emails at a time so i takes me forever to get through 3,000! On my old PC i used to be able to do an email mail merge via excel straight to outlook so after a few clicks it would automatically send to every customers individually so i could just leave it for 30 mins or so and it would be complete!
Is there anyway i can do the same using mail? i am happy to use either excel or numbers to obtains this!
Thanks in advance

Hi Andy
Not really possible with Mail, but one program I've used and recommended is "Direct Mail". It integrates with your Address Book groups, and you can set a limit to how many emails it sends at a time.

Outlook 2010 - attachments with mail merge email

Is it possible to add an attachment to an email mail merge?

Hi,
Actually, Mail merge doesn't support attachments.
To work around this behavior, publish the attachment to a Web site on the Internet. After you do this, provide the path link for the attachment in the body of the
merged document that you are sending.
Or you can use a mail merge utility that is designed to send attachments or use VBA.
More information, you can refer to these articles:
You cannot add an attachment to an e-mail message as part of the mail-merge operation in Word

Unique Mail Merge

Hi:
I use mail merge a lot, but don't know how do I do this:
I will make a post card: 4 on a page.....and want to merge my address book so that I create 4 different addresses in that one post card on one page. Not 4 of the same on that page.
That is, I design a postage that fits 4 on an 11 x 8.5 page. And when I print I have about 100 address (100 post cards, 25 sheets). and want 4 different addresses on all 25 pages.
Hope I make sense!
How to do?

Hi Jon,
Mail Merge uses a single record to obtain the information for each merge document, and each merge document has a minimum size of one page. If you've set up four post cards on a single page, those four post cards are all part of a single Merge document, and will use data from a single record.
Instead of using Mail Merge, place your post card directly into a database Layout.
If your post cards fit on the page one above the other (like this)...
post card 1
post card 2
post card 3
post card 4
...you can use a Standard Layout as your starting point, set up a single post card that takes 1/4 of the available vertical space on the page, and drag the Body boundary up to the bottom of the single post card.
When you return to Browse mode (and have Page View checked, you should see 4 cards on each page.
If your post cards appear on the page in two rows of two cards each...
Card 1 Card 2
Card 3 Card 4
...you need to think of your post card as a "Label" that comes 4 to a sheet.
Assuming your postcards fit 4 to a page in Landscape orientation, start by going to Page Setup and setting orientation to landscape.
Set up a custom Labels Layout using Layout > New Layout > Labels...Custom.
In Layout, you'll see the space for ONE card. Use this to set up the design for the post card. When you return to Browse mode (and have Page view checked in the Options menu), you should see pages containing sets of 4 cards (each containing data from a different record).
Regards,
Barry
PS:
Hint: Labels are a bit more difficult to adjust. The Body boundary can be moved to adjust the vertical size and spacing of the cards, but the card's right boundary is fixed when you define the width of the card, and can't be moved after that except by starting over.
Because of this, I've found it useful to put only two objects on a label layout, print a test page (on plain paper) and make adjustments to the layout, repeating the process until the 'labels' are properly aligned on the page. Once that's accomplished, I remove the test objects, place the objects that will actually be used on the card/label, print another test, then run the job.
For test objects I use two small solid colour circles. The center of one is placed on the top left corner of the label (only the bottom right quarter of this circle will be visible on the layout); the center of the other is placed on the intersection of the Body boundary and the vertical boundary line showing the right edge of the card/label (all of this one will show on the layout, but only the top left quarter will print).

Email PDF from Mail Merge Problem

Using a data source of email addresses from Excel 2003 and performing a mail merge in Word 2003 with the Mail Merge to Adobe PDF button, everything worked okay and the emails generated to the outbox in Outlook 2003 with the relevant PDFs attached. However, once they were mailed the recipients who use Outlook Express had the attachments missing. I'm using Acrobat 8.1.5
I've seen previous queries about this and it seems to relate to Outlook using a RTF format. I set Outlook to default to html and then plain text formats but still had the same problem. Can anyone suggest how I can solve this or if the problem is Outlook related, then another email program that would work without causing this problem (preferable freeware or inexpensive).
Thanks

Just an interesting after thought, since you mentioned blocking. Several federal agencies and companies block zip files also. I ran onto a message recently about the university blocking zip files at one time because of a problem. Mail merge files are typically personalized and it would be nice for them to go intact. If they re not personalized, but just being sent in general, then posting the basic file and e-mailing a link might work better. For a lot of things I do, I just use the mail merge that is built into my e-mail client. That creates a mail-merge of messages that are personalized.
Just thought the blocking comment might be of interest, though I give the same advice. I am not sure how it could be done with zip in a mail merge sense.

How do I completely wipe out old email account info?

I periodically have problems with my ATT email account and it quits downloading incoming mail to MacMail. ATT swears it is not their problem even though it isn't happening with any other email account but ATT. I don't have problems sending mail.
In the past I have fixed it by deleting the old account and going through adding it back as a "new" account to set it up again. In the past the 'Add Account' process would take me through setting up the imap mailbox and server, then go to the smtp setup. I have had to do this numerous times in the past - every few months.
But this time the first "Add Account" screen already displayed the email address (even though I deleted the account). And as soon as the imap info was entered the "Add Account" process appeared to complete the smtp setup automatically as it displayed the completed screen.
After that MacMail went through what appeared to be the downloading of emails into my inbox (several thousand of them). The bar in the "Mail Activity" area in the lower left corner continued to move across and the number of emails remaining was displayed.
In spite of that, the emails never showed up in my inbox. Oddly, the "Notes" from my iPhone (which are sent to my email automatically) were downloaded - just not any of the emails. I can send emails.
The ATT webmail is still showing all the emails and I can send and receive from webmail. I just can't download into MacMail.
It appears that somewhere in all the system stuff my Mac is retaining some ATT information and pulling that information instead of starting from scratch and truly setting it up as a new account. Where is all that old infor stored and how do I completely get rid of it?
Oddly, at the same time I was having the problems with my Mac, my iPhone stopped downloading ATT email as well. I was able to fix that by deleting the account and setting up again.
Thanks,
Camille

All of a sudden now - two whole days later - all the emails have finally appeared. I have no clue what is going on.

How can I find out the mail server from email address?

Hi:
How can I find out the mail server from email address?
for example: If I know the email address is [email protected],
how to find the pop3 and smtp mail server?
THANK YOU

You can't tell by the email address since you can pretty much put whatever you want in there (especially if the SMTP server is not filtering anything).
The header may be able to tell you something. There is a Received header value which looks like it has the routing information although I am not sure if this is a complete trace or just the last hop the message took.

How do you change the default size of the print batch size for mail merge in Publisher 2010?

I appended this question to another thread with the same topic but have not received a reply, so I'll try with a new question. Publisher 2010, when doing mail merge, will only merge and print two records at a time. How do you change the default size of
the print batch size? This is for a 4 page document, 8 1/2 x 11, printed two sides on 11 x 17. I've tried all the suggestions that were in the other thread. The response that was marked as the answer by the moderator is incorrect and does not work. Nothing
suggested in that thread works. A registry fix that worked for Publisher 2003 won't work because the print batch size key does not exist in the registry for Pub 2010. At least not that I can find. Printing to an XPS document doesn't work. It asks for a filename,
prints 2 records, asks for new file name, prints 2 records, asks for new file name, and so on. The same for printing to a PDF document. Merging to a new Pub document doesn't work. When I print that job every other sheet is turned over. I.e., sheet one has
pages 1 & 3 on top, next sheet has 3 & 4 on top, and so on. This makes it impossible to run them through the folder. The same thing happens when I print that complete merged document to XPS or PDF. I have the latest drivers installed for our printer, a Toshiba
2500C copier/printer connected via network. What do I need to do to to change the batch size to something reasonable, like 100 records?

It's been two weeks since I posted this question. What does it take to get an answer? I cannot believe it's being ignored, nor can I believe that someone in MS doesn't have an answer.

How do I get my email history off of my POP servers and BACK into Mail?

I was trying to change the name of a folder in my OS 10.4 Tiger Mail application. It generated an error message, (I do not know the exact message) it said that I could not change the name of that folder. After the error message left the screen, ALL of the email in that folder disappeared. Including all of the email in the 24 sub-folders that I had created... Poof... Gone... My entire business email history for the past month.
I was able to access my account info (through the Account Info panel) for all 4 of my POP accounts located on different POP servers. Thankfully, my email history has NOT been deleted off of those servers. So my question is:
How do I get my email history off of my POP servers and BACK into Mail?
I DO NOT want to delete ANY email from the servers, I just want to get my history back into Tiger Mail... Someone help me please...

I spoke with Mac Tech Support. To get my messages from my server back into Mail, I was told to mark my email (on my webmail server) as unread. Mail will then know to pull these specific messages into my account.
However, this is one of a handful of problems that I have been having with the Mail application. Just today I tried to create a new message by hitting NEW and the program crashed. This plus having all of my messages disappear and then having to reimport them isn't worth the effort. I've decided to stop using Mail completely.
I was just told about Mozilla's Thunderbird email application. It's free and looks better than Mail. Do yourself a favor and go check out Thunderbird at:
