How do I import my mbox file for Apple Mail?

I just did a clean install of my mac os on an iMac. Prior to the install, I exported my mail account to an external drive. I got an INBOX.mbox file/folder that's 4.32GBs. When I click the file, there is an "mbox" file and a "table_of_contents" file.
In Apple mail, I chose import mailboxes - Mail for Mac OS X - and clicked the file. It brings an INBOX folder into the ON MY MAC folder... but no mail. I have tried this a 1/2-dozen ways and cannot get my mail to reload. I assume it's there since the file is 4.32GB.
Anyone have thoughts on this? This is business mail that I need for sure. I feel confident that the files are there since the file is so big. What gives?

It's a mac drive, however, I got past that issue by copying the file to my desktop. The issue now is that it won't load all of the way. It crashes mail half way through. I get mail back to 2011 when it should go back to 2008.
Thoughts?

  • Trying to import older .mbox files into Apple mail

    I have been trying to import older .mbox files back into Apple mail over an hour.
    No matter what I use in the import window, nothing seems to work.
    If it imports it sends it to the mail downloads folder but nothing from that point on.
    I can read text in TextEdit but it's all running together.
    OS X v10.6.8 Snow Leopard

    I noticed on the left side way down past my last mail box folder ( long list) for the import .mbox files.
    Seems they were hidden !

  • How do I import an AVI file for use with FInal Cut Express

    How do I import or use an AVI file with Final Cut Express?
    Thank you. Do I need to convert my AVI file and what is the
    easiest way to do that? Thank you.

    You should convert the media to QuickTime. Without knowing any specifics most likely the simplest way is to use MPEG Streamclip.

  • How do I import an EPS file for a Barcode?

    I made a book but want to add a Barcode. The barciode company made one for me in EPS file format. Can I just drag that in? It seems to automatically into a PDF file when I do that, which seems strange??
    Thanks

    .eps is a dead format.
    There are 3 useful vector formats now.
    .ai (with .pdf preview) for complex vectors with blends.
    .pdf for flat color vector
    .svg for the web (unfortunately Apple has lousy support for this).

  • How to import a .wav file for adding to a clip in imovie 09

    I want to know how can we import a .wav file in Imovie 09.
    The sound is in some location on my 2nd hard disc.
    I checked this page
    http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/how-to-import-audio-into-imovie-09-project s.navId-323836.html
    but this does not help my requirement.
    I have a video in which there was a lot of hiss recorded via camera I exported the audio and using some audio filtering softwares cleaned the sound and now I want to import this clean sound back to my imoive project.
    It is a .wav file which is clean and without hiss.

    I see.By the time I saw your msg I had done the same and opened Itunes to play.
    There was an option in Imovie to import Itunes playlist or file and was able to do so.
    Any one will guess as in File some import menu
    should exist for this.In this case it was not that.
    mp3 clip needs to be played in Itunes
    where Itunes will make it a part of the mp3 library it has.
    Then Imovie 09 has a way to import the shared playlist from itunes.

  • How do I upload an audio file for voicemail?

    We are looking at having all our voicemails professionally recorded.  Can anyone tell me how to import an audio file for the iPhone voicemail and what format it needs to be in?
    Thank you!!

    It would be up to your carrier if they provide this option.  I don't believe AT&T does. If they did, I'd be all over that.

  • Can't import mbox file back into Mail

    Hi,
    I archived my "sent messages" folder two months ago, and it became a mbox file of 5GB.
    Now I as trying to import it back to mail, but it doesn't work.
    I went to "Import Mailboxes", and selected "mbox files" in the Import window. Then I clicked "continue",
    and chose the "sent messages" mbox file (user library > Mail > Archive mail).
    Smaller mbox file appear in the next window, but this large one doesn't.
    Does anyone know if there is a way to get access to this data?
    I would be very grateful to get some hints...
    Thanks.

    If this was archived from Mac OS X Mail, then choose "Mail for Mac OS X", not "mbox files".

  • How do I import an MKV file into Premiere Pro CS6?

    How do I import an MKV file into Premiere Pro CS6?

    Premiere Pro CS6 doesn't support MKV formats. To import MKV to Premiere Pro CS6, a recommended solution is to convert MKV to AVI.
    I've been reading so many different forums on how to convert MKV to AVI. Finally, I summarised three solutions:
    First one: HandBrake . This tool is a free and open-source multi-threaded transcoding app. It supports nearly any videos including MKV format and has Mac version and Windows version.
    Cons:
    1. HandBrake is too professional to handle for most people;
    2. It doesn't support MOV as output format.
    Second one: there are many third party software which supports converting MKV to AVI. I just test one of them. It's professional yet easy to use and the service is excellent. And there is a step by step guide about how to use this tool .
    Cons:
    1. Most of them are not free.
    Third one: Online-Converter . This kind of converter does a great job on file conversion.
    Cons:
    1. Like most online converters, the free version of this tool only allows you to convert videos smaller than 100MB. It's too small for video conversion;
    2.Your MKV video should be upload to the internet to be converted. This means the risk of pravite information leak is possible.

  • How do I import an iMove file into Toast 7?

    How do I import an iMovie file into Toast 7? I have tried
    the image file copy and the horizontal
    aliasing still is there.

    I am not quite sure what you are trying to do since you mention copying an image file. Let's start with an iMovie project and you now want to encode it. You have a choice of programs to do the encoding, Toast being one of them. If the video is less than 2 hours, iDVD offers more options and does a great job encoding the movie too. I use both programs. If this is the process you are trying to follow, then Toast 7 allows you to drag the iMovie project file directly into the Toast window (after selecting the Video tab)and it will locate the right file to encode. Set the various options for menus, etc. and then go. Usually, it is best to Save As Disc Image, and then burn the DVDs later from the image file again with Toast using the Copy tab (copy image file selection). If I create the image file with iDVD, I still use Toast to burn the DVDs. Toast 7 works great with iMovie 5, but I have not used it with iMovie 6. There could be some incompatibilities.

  • How do i import director 7 files into current premiere pro

    how do i import director 7 files into current premiere pro
    I have a project created in Macromedia Director 7. I was told by sales that this would import into Premere Pro.
    However I have no Idea how! Any help would be appreciated.

    I'm happy to announce to you all that my "mp4 importing" issues has been sorted out. Now I import mp4 shot with the same Windows Phone 8 Device into Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. Only that for the moment, it doesn't play as fast as with ordinary player.
    But how did I get it to work, you may wonder;
    I simply installed Itunes on the system, I also installed an app called media monkey. I can't say which of the apps did the magic but the next time I tried to import mp4 files into Premiere Pro after these installations, it imported seamlessly.
    Obviously there's a link between the required codecs and the itunes itself.
    You may want to try it and hope it works for you.
    Kindly inform us if it works.
    Thank you all.
    Cheers.
