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 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 to import contacts from outlook 2010 to iMac

    I am needing to export my work outlook 2010 contacts & import them into "contacts" on my iMac but I cannot do this.  Does anyone know how to do this, or if its possible?  I have tried exporting as a CSV (DOS & Windows) file from Outlook 2010 with no luck.

    Never mind Migration Assistant, re-read my post I edited it after I thought about your question. I'm getting you are new to OS X, if you only want to migrate your contacts use the suggestion noted above. However if you want to migrate more (music, data files, etc) to your iMac then use Migration Assistant. Pondini has created an excellent guide on how to use Migration Assistant. You can find it at:

  • I WANT TO IMPORT MAIL FROM OUTLOOK TO TALKTALK

    i want to direct mail from outlook to talktalk.

    Do you mean Outlook, the application included with Microsoft Office, or Outlook Express, the application included with Windows XP, or Outlook.com, the new incarnation of Hotmail/Windows Live Mail?
    Does talktalk have documentation on importing mail? Or on forwarding your old address to your new address?
    I suspect Firefox is not at the center of the process in any case.

  • How to exchange E-mail from Outlook?

    After an update of the software of the N97 to version 12, I had to install again the exchange option with Outlook. Contacts, Agenda, Tasks, ... works fine, but I can't get the mail exchange working again.
    My purpose is just to load the mails of say 5 days from Outlook into the N97. In the Ovi Suite I have chosen: 
    Nokia PC sync instellingen: I have chosen E-mail, too; folder: Inbox; exclusief e-mails bigger than 200 kb.
    I think I do something wrong on the N97-side (and can't remember what I did right the very first time).
    Is it right to chose a mailbox: @home
    use as a usernaam the name I use in Outlook
    use as a password the password I use in Outlook
    use the same server for incoming mails as I use in Outlook
    use a standardconnection
    Mailboxname: the name after @Home
    use as Mailboxtype the same I use in Outlook: POP3
    use as port: standard?
    First I would like to have this working.
    Even better would be if I could use two mailboxes: 1 for e-mails from Outlook; 2 for e-mails from a different source via internet.

    As I can't believe that no one here knows the anwser, I think my description and/or title is unclear.
    It's about synchronization between the N97 and Outlook, but the problem I have only with synchronizing E-mails between the N97 and Outlook; synchronizing agenda, contacts, tasks, ... works well.

  • Importing mail from Outlook Express to Mail

    I firewired my old Outlook Express program over from my iBook, which runs on OS 9.1, to my new Powerbook, but when I run the program in the classic environment it doesn't access the Messages cache. Instead, it shows no messages in the inbox, which means I have no way of importing all the old messages and the old address book from Express to Mail. Does anyone know how I might do this? Thanks.

    I spent about 10 hours on this forum trying to find out how to export mail from MS Outlook on OS 9 and import the mail into Apple Mail OS X. I found a few threads with no specifics and I found a few knowledge base articles and finally succeeded. So here is the step by step workflow for anyone who needs to do the same:
    1] On your old OS 9 Mac, locate the folder called Microsoft User Data -> Identities
    2] Copy the Identities folder to your new OS X Mac (put in on the desktop temporarily)
    3] Install OS 9 from your system disk on the new OS X Mac if it's not already installed
    4] On your OS X Mac, go to OS 9 Applications, find MS Outlook and run the program. After it launches, quit the program (this is to create some needed files in your home directory)
    5] On your OS X computer, go to your Home -> Documents -> Microsoft User Data, and trash the Identities folder
    6] Drag the Identites folder that you put on the desktop (the one from the OS 9 Mac) and put drop it Home -> Documents -> Microsoft User Data (replacing the identities you just trashed)
    7] Go back into OS 9 Applications (on your OS X Mac) and once again launch MS Outlook - you should now see all your mail in your inbox and sent items
    8] Quit MS Outlook
    9] Launch Apple Mail and use the FILE -> IMPORT MAILBOX function to begin the import process - follow the prompts
    Good luck

    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 :
    Download and install drivers

  • How do I import mail from Snow Leopard to Lion Mail?

    Tried dragging ~/Library/Mail files and folders across.
    But Mail insisted on my setting up an accounr (I have several) and put everything into that one account.
    Anyone know of a foolproof doc./url or checklist, please, which explains how to get everything that was in Snow Leopard Mail into Lion Mail?
    Thanks!

    similar "solution" for how to import ical from snow leopard to lion:
    1) copy the following files (e.g. from a snow leopard backup) prior to first opening ical:
    1a) ~/Library/Keychains/ (folder "Keychains")
    1b) ~/Library/Calendars (folders "Calendars")
    1c) ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iCal.* (ical preferences files, "com.apple.iCal.helper.plist", "com.apple.iCal.plist")
    1d) ~/Library/Preferences/iCalExternalSync.plist
    2) then open ical in lion ... import/update will follow
    if you have opened ical prior to the above steps these files (1b, 1c and 1d ) have already been created, so you have to replace them with your backups from snow leopard described above
    if you have set up calendar accounts in system preferences "Mail, Contacts & Calendars" you might have to delete them before applying the above steps
    ps:
    not quite sure if the following steps are necessary (or did help) for mail/ical import, because mobileme sync works now different in lion (no option for syncing calendars anymore within system preferences—>mobileme) ...
    i did a mobileme sync in snow leopard prior to the clean install of lion with:
    Calendars
    Mail Accounts
    Mail rules, Signatures, and Smart Mailboxes

    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.
