How do I import addresses from Outlook to MacBook

I recently inherited a 3 year old MacBook Pro and I want this computer to replace my old MS laptop using Outlook 10.  Any idea how to import the address book (which is first priority) and then also the old emails and calendar items that I have in Outlook?

You have to have itunes on your computer to import contacts via iTunes. the iTunes app on the iPad isn't good for anything but making purchases.
Download and install iTunes. Plug your device in and you may need to research setting it up without wiping anything out. And then under the info tab of the compuer iTunes you'll see the option to sync contacts.
If you don't want to mess with this, the only other ways to get the contacts is to explore iCloud syncing, or e-mail them to yourself, one at a time, and open that mail on your iPad and save them from there.

    How do I import addresses from Address Book Ver 4.1.2 to the Lion Address Book version 7.0? Mountain Lion will not allow me to open Address book Version 4.1.2

    Do you have any addresses in the Lion version?
    If not, copy the AddressBook folder from your username/Library/Application Support/ folder on the old mac (or backup).
    Copy it to the same location on your new Mac, replacing the one that is there. Start Address Book in Mountain Lion and it should convert the files to the correct format.
    If you do have addresses, it is a little more complicated.
    First, create a Contacts Archive (from File>Export menu). This will be your backup.
    Next, export the current contacts as vCards.
    Then, follow the steps above.
    Then, import all the cards you exported. If you select all and double-click, it will ask if you want to add them. You'll then have to add them to whatever groups you had set up.

  • Contacts won't keep imported addresses from Outlook

    When I import my contact addresses from Outlook into PE8 Contacts, they are all there for just that instance, then they all will disappear the next time I go to the contact page.  I can't find any option to fix that.  I have signed in and looked in my Adobe account and don't find anything there either.  What do you need to do/set/click on to permanently keep the addresses imported?  If I manually enter one, it stays.

    Let's go step-by-step to see what the issue might be:
    1. In Outlook, select one contact.
    2. Right-click the contact and select Send Full Contact > In Internet Format (vCard).  This creates a draft email message with the selected contact as a vCard attachment.
    After step 2, do you see the attachment in the draft message?  In Outlook 2007, it looks like:
    It should look similar in Outlook 2003.   If you can't see where the attachment is, post a screenshot here (come to the Web to reply, not by email, and use the Attach Files command at the bottom of the message window).
    3. Click on that attachment and drag it to your Windows desktop.  On my Windows 7, it looks like:
    If you other versions of Windows, it will look a little different.

  • How do I import mail from Outlook 2010?

    When I try to import my emails from Outlook 2010 I get the following message:
    "An error occurred importing mail from Outlook
    Unable to find mail to import. Check to make sure the mail application is correctly installed on this machine."

    You'll need to do it from a 32bit version - Mail/Live mail do not recongise outlook 2010 64 bit.  Dropping EML files into Outlook folder has always created new messages with attachments - this is nothing new.
    ETA: if you can email the messages as attachments, you can drag them from the message and drop them in the Inbox.  This obviously works best if there aren't hundreds of messages to convert. :)
    There are 3rd party utilties that can make the conversion but they may not work with the 64bit version. See http://www.slipstick.com/config/convmsg.htm for a list of programs that can make the conversion but i don't know if any of them work with 64bit outlook.

  • How to extract email address from Outlook friendly name cache

    Hi guys,
    A while ago, somebody wrote a little VBA utility to help us to log CRM events. Whenever a user sends an email to a customer, it logs the fact in our CRM database. This is the programmatic process:
    1. Grab the email address from ActiveInspector.CurrentItem.To
    2. If it's a valid email address, all well and good. Proceed to Step 8.
    3. If not a valid email address (it must be a friendly name, perhaps located in Exchange), look for the address in:
    ActiveInspector.CurrentItem.Recipients.Item(1).AddressEntry.GetExchangeUser.PrimarySmtpAddress
    4. If it's a valid email address, all well and good. Proceed to Step 8.
    5. If not a valid email address (it must be in the user's Contact list), look for the address in:
    ActiveInspector.CurrentItem.Recipients.Item(1).AddressEntry.GetContact.Email1Address
    6. If it's a valid email address, all well and good. Proceed to Step 8.
    7. If not a valid email address, then crash!!!         <<------------------------------------------------- Here's where I'm stuck!
    8. Get the CustomerID from the CRM, based on email address.
    9. Do a bunch of other stuff (for example, send the email, and log the event in the CRM).
    I'm a former Access MVP, and am highly experienced with VBA, but my forte is clearly not Outlook. What I'd like to do is find the email address by looking in the local cache, and make sure I get the actual email address rather than the friendly name.
    I'm not sure if 'local cache' is the right word; I know Outlook stores frequently used email address in some sort of cache, even if the user has not explicitly stored it as a Contact. I just don't know how to find it. Can anyone point me in the right
    direction, maybe with a method name?
    Also, while mucking about with it, I found the following. Would it be useful in this scenario?
    ActiveInspector.CurrentItem.Recipients.Item(1).AddressEntry.GetExchangeDistributionList
    Many thanks,

    Hi Graham,
    This might help you to figure things out a bit.
    The contact cache you are looking for is called the nickname cache, also known as the "autocomplete stream."
    The nickname files (.nk2) used by older versions of Outlook (2007 and below).
    Outlook 2010 and 2013 does not use the NK2 file; it stores the autocomplete cache in the mailbox or data file and caches the addresses in an autocomplete stream at C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\RoamCache. The cache is stored in a file
    named Stream_Autocomplete_0_[long GUID].dat.
    For applications that interact with Outlook 2010 or Outlook 2013, the autocomplete stream is stored as a MAPI property and can be modified using the MAPI or the
    PropertyAccessor object of the message. The PropertyAccessor object is exposed in the Outlook 2010 or Outlook 2013 object models.
    Outlook 2010 or Outlook 2013 reads the autocomplete stream from a message in the Associated Contents table of the Inbox of the mail account’s delivery store. This hidden message has a message class and subject of IPM.Configuration.Autocomplete. The autocomplete
    stream is stored on this message in the PR_ROAMING_BINARYSTREAM property (PidTagRoamingBinary Canonical Property).

    If they are in a compatible vCard format, you can import them as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmfba7399f.  If they aren't, you may have to try importing them to Google contacts, then export them from Google as a vCard that is compatible with iCloud.

    Hi Willimo,
    The main issue is to install the graphic driver software ,right ?
    There are two ways to get the driver, automatically update from the windows update or manually download the driver from the manufacturer website and install it from the device manager.
    Please refer to the following link :

  • How do I import addresses from Word into Address Book?

    I have all my addresses formatted as a label document in Word (so I can print on Avery labels). How can I import this information into Address Book?

    You will need to convert the file so it appears something like this:
    LastName<tab>FirstName<tab>Address<tab>City<tab>State<tab>Zip
    Aalberg<tab>The<tab>3451 Avon Way<tab>Burbank<tab>CA<tab>91564
    Jones<tab>Sam<tab>11112 First Ave. NW<tab>Atlanta<tab>GA<tab>30022
    The above is the general format required. The typical way of doing address labels in Word is to create a mailmerge database that would be formatted like the above. Then you create a mailmerge document in which the fieldnames on the top line of the database are inserted in the desired format. You then create the output file by doing a mailmerge. Apparently you are doing it the brute-force way.
    I hope this makes it clearer for you.

  • How do I import mails from Outlook into Mail on my McBook Pro ?

    Hi there,
    I'm running Outlook:mac 2011 on my MacBook Pro and I would like to import all of my mails (with all the folders) from Outlook:mac 2011 into Mail. I can't find the appropriate format neither in the export formats in Outlook nor in the import formats in Mail. I would like to use only Mail in the future but I can't afford losing all my actual mails.
    Thanks for you help

  • How can I import addresses from one of my address book accounts into webmail at my internet service so that another individual who uses Firefox as their browser can send out emails using those addresses?

    I was able to export addresses to webmail @ sonic.net (csv format via previous gmail user) and read them fine using my normal browser, Safari. However, when trying to use the imported addresses via Firefox, the addresses had a symbol inbetween each letter of the email address and thus could not be used.

    Sorry I put this in the wrong forum. I shall post again to Leopard/mail etc.
