How to import mailbox files in Outlook 2013??

How do I import Mozilla Thunderbird archived mailboxes in Microsoft Outlook 2013? I used Mozilla Thundebird in Mac book pro earlier, from some time I have been using Windows pc and for some reason I needed to access my older mails that I had archived from Mozilla Thunderbird. How do I import those files in Outlook 2013??
Please help...!!

Thunderbird mails cannot be directly imported into Outlook because of file format compatibility issues. Outlook can import .pst file format, so first we need to convert thunderbird mail to .pst format. This can be done here: http://www.gladwevsoftware.com/thunderbird-to-pst-converter/
After that follow these steps to import the converted pst file in outlook 2013:-
1. Click File > Open & Export > Import/Export.
2. This starts the Import and Export Wizard.
3. Choose Import from another program or file, and then click Next.
4. Choose Outlook Data File (.pst) and click Next.
5. Browse to the .pst file you want to import.
6. Under Options, choose how you want to deal with duplicates
7. Click Next.
8. If a password was assigned to the Outlook Data File (.pst), enter the password, and then click OK.
9. Set the options for importing items. The default settings usually don’t need to be changed.
10. Click Finish.
I hope this helps. thanks

  • How to import OLM file into Outlook 2013?

    Last week, I switched to Windows 8 PC. It works fine but annoying with email application. Previous email backup file of Outlook 2011 (OLM) file was not supported by Outlook 2013 email application.
    Can anyone help to fix this one issue?

    Hi Smithazus,
    You face failure result due to bad practice of email migration. Before importing any email file in to new email client, please make sure few things as follows:
    Similar email file format
    Awareness with import process
    Safe environment for data safety
    Outlook 2013 uses PST file which is different from OLM files. In this context, you are advised to convert OLM files into PST file (Outlook 2013 supported file). As any manual method of such conversion is not available, you can try automated software which is developed by third party vendors.

  • How to import .iaf files into Outlook 2011 for mac?

    I exported emails from Outlook Express (PC) to .iaf files years ago and now need to access them on a mac. I have downloaded Office for mac 2011 but can't work out how to import them into Outlook 2011.
    Can it be done? Any suggestions would be hugely helpful.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    We can import .iaf files in Outlook 2010 using the following method:
    Start Outlook 2010.
    On the File menu, click Import and Export.
    Click the Advanced tab, and then click Export.
    Click Import Internet Mail Account Settings, and then click
    Next.
    Follow the Internet Connection Wizard to complete the import process.
    But, I don't know if we can do this in Outlook for Mac 2011. Since this forum is for general questions and feedback related to Outlook for Windows, it's better to post Mac related issue to the forum for Mac:

  • Import pst files in Outlook 2013

    Hi all!
    I have a simple question for you...
    The normal procedure suggested me to import a pst file from Outlook 2007 to Outlook 2013 from File->Open and Export->Import/Export->Import data from other programs....etc. This procedure works normally.
    If I export mail by mail (one each mail at time) from Outlook 2007 to a normal folder in my desktop I have a folder with more .msg files. And, when I finished to do this I import mail by mail from my desktop folder to new .pst file in Outlook 2013.
    This procedure can be corrupt or damage the pst file?
    Many thanks!
    Bye!

    You are using the term "export" for two different scenarios - one of which has nothing to do with "exporting". Similarly, the term "folder" means 2 different things under the scenario described.
    Specifically, you don't export email's one message at a time, in this case, these are being "saved" in a Windows folder which is not the same thing as an Outlook folder (contained in a PST file).
    Instead of going through this latter process which has to be time-consuming and a pain, have you considered simply opening the pst file used in O'2007 and then just moving/copying the desired messages to the desired O'2013 folder? Am sure there is a reason
    that you're going through this latter process but on the surface it seems that it's a long way around to arrive at your destination.

  • Importing Archive File into Outlook 2013

    We got a couple of new PCs for some users and one of them had an Archive folder in Outlook 2010. I still have the archive.pst file from the old PC and I'm trying to import it into Outlook 2013 but it's not working. It seems pretty straight forward but
    after I choose the archive.pst file, it doesn't actually add anything. Am I missing a step?

    Hi,
    Please do the following steps to copy your archive.pst file to Outlook 2013 and open it:
    1. Open Outlook 2010 in your old PC.
    2. Click File > Open > Open Outlook Date File.
    3. Copy the location of the Archive file from the opening windows(example: C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\Outlook Files).
    4. Close Outlook 2010, and paste the copied location in Windows Explorer and Enter it.
    5. Copy the Archive file. (To double check the file is copied completely, we can paste it in the local old machine and open it to have a test.)
    6. Paste the copied Archive file in new PC.
    7. Open Outlook 2013 in new PC.
    8. Click File > Open&Export > Open Outlook Data File, expand the location of your pasted Archive file and open it.
    Then check whether there are any messages in the opened archive folder.

  • How to import msg files into Outlook with Powershell

    Hello,
    I want to import contact msg files on the file system into Outllok.
    Before I want to delete all contacts in this contact folder.
    Can you show me how please.
    Frank

    # 1 - try to not create lots of interim items as it make it harder to shutdown Outlook.
    # 2 - To delete all items in a folder:
          $namespace.GetDefaultFolder(10).Items |%{$_.delete()}
    The following code of your makes no sense.  What are you trying to do?
    $SourceFiles = Get-ChildItem -path "D:\ccc\*" -include *.msg      #-recurse
    foreach ($_ in $SourceFiles)

            $MailItem = $_

  • How do I import Outlook Express message files into Outlook 2013 without using LiveMail

    I bought a new Windows 7 computer and have copied the Outlook Express .dbx files from the old XP computer onto the new one. Outlook 2013 's import facility does not have a .dbx option.  I  do not want to use Windows Live for anything. How do
    I import my Outlook Express mail files into Outlook 2013 ?

    Hi,
    It isn't only to Outlook 2013, other versions of Outlook cannot access the .dbx files directly.
    In the situation, Windows Live Mail is needed to transfer the mail data to Outlook.

  • How to import Apple Mail archive files in Outlook 2013?

    I need to import Apple Mail archived files in Outlook 2013 on Windows, but every time I open the import wizard and reach the file selection step, I cannot select the archived file. It doesn't even show in the dialog box.
    I don't know what the issue is. Is it the file size issue as the archive file is large (about 7 GB) or there is any other fault?

    If both system are using the IMAP mail provider all you have to do is setup the connection to the mail server and all the emails and folders will be copied down to the windows computer. That is what IMAP is for. The mail stays on the server, and can be store
    on the local computer also, and when you connect to the server with another device, computer, phone or pad, all the mail with folders gets copied to the other device.
    But I think some of your mail was gotten using POP so it is not longer on the server.
    Or you have emails in local folder only and they would be on the server. But you can create folder on the server in one mail program, or on the mail web interface and then copy those emails into those folder on the server byt copying them in one of the email
    programs. Then when you log on with the other device all of them will be downloaded to the other device.
    Other alternative:- You can find various solutions on having a google search
    for your problem. Or you can have a look at the following link: Apple mail to Outlook Windows

  • Can not import Outlook 2007 .CSV or .PST files into Outlook 2013 on Win 8.1 64 bit

    I have a new computer (Sony VAIO Pro 11 Ultrabook) with a brand new install of Win 8.1 - 64 bit and MS Office 2013 Professional Plus.  Everything works fine EXCEPT I can not import my contacts or calendar from Outlook 2007 Win 7 - 32 bit into the
    .msn folders in each case.  I can open .pst files in Outlook 2013 but they open in a local file and when I copy and paste them into the Exchange ActiveSync .msn contact and calendar files so that they will sync with Outlook.com Outlook 2013 crashes. 
    It can't even be reopened unless the wireless is turned off, and then you have to create a new data file as a default and then delete the old account and re-establish it.  I have tried using the import functions as well with both
    .CSV and .PST files that were exported from Outlook 2007 and an error message stating that this is not supported comes up.  I have also tried to turn on sync with my iPhone to see if the files will sync from the phone through Outlook.com and nothing happens
    there either - no sync on the web and nothing at the PC.  Email works fine after adding the account again etc.
    None of the procedures on the forums work (open PST file in the local folder then copy/paste, drag/drop, or move the files) so please don't respond with those links.  All result in crash.  Does anyone at MS know what's up with their latest
    and greatest SW? 
    Thank you for your assistance.

    Import the calendar and contacts in Outlook.com. For contacts, export from Outlook as csv and import into Outlook by choosing the Other option (https://people.live.com/import/other?biciid=ImportCatalog) 
    You'll need to save the calendar as an ics file to import it. Select the calendar folder, the File, Save as an save as an ics.

  • Import contacts from old outlook 2013 to new Outlook 2013

    I recently had to get a new computer.  I removed the boot drive from the old computer and installed it as drive F on the new computer. This worked great in recovering my large data files.  However, drive F contains an instance of Outlook 2013
    as does drive C.  How do I copy to or import drive F's contact info to the new Outlook 2013 contacts?  I do not need the old email messages as I already have gotten them from the email service provider.

    Hi
    As per the information and details provided by you, to import contacts from old Outlook 2013 to the new Outlook 2013 please follow these steps: -
    Collect Files from the Old Computer
    First, you need the PST from your old computer. In most cases, they will be in the default location Outlook uses. To quickly access the default PST location outside of
    Outlook, paste this line in Windows Explorer’s address bar:
    %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
    Copy the Files to the New Computer
    Now, you will copy the PSTs to the new computer. If you have several PSTs in the folder and are not sure which one is the one with your data, look at the file dates and
    file sizes. If you have 265KB PST files, they are empty and don’t need to be moved.
    Paste the following line into the address bar.
    %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
    In this folder you will have the NK2, SRS, XML, outlprnt, and VBA project files.
    Open the AppData Roaming folder using the following command and copy the NK2 file to the folder.
    %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Outlook
    Create a Profile
    After the PST file is on the local drive, type mail in the start search field on the
    Start menu or go to Control Panel, Mail then opens the profile dialog. (If you use the
    Category view, mail is under the Users group; in Win 64-bit, Mail is under 32-bit application.
    Click the Show Profile button.
    Click Add to create a new profile.
    Enter a descriptive name for your profile.
    Enter the name you want to use for your display name, your email address, and your password.
    Add Your Existing Data File (PST) to the Profile
    If you have an Outlook data file PST, and you want to use with your new profile, then please follow these steps: -
    Select the newly created profile, then click Properties.
    Click Data files button to open Account Setting dialog to the Data files tab.
    Click Add then browse to your existing PST file.
    If the PST is a native Outlook 2003/2007 file type, choose the top entry for the Outlook Personal File. Click Ok.
    Select your existing PST file.
    You can enter a friendly name or just click OK to return the Account Settings dialog.
    Click the Sets as Default button. Select the PST Outlook created when it created the profile and click Remove. If you want, click Open folder to find and deletes this PST.
    I hope this information will be helpful for you.
    Thanks and regards

  • How to import MXF files to Final Cut Pro with smooth editing

    Summary: Follow this tutorial to learn how to import and edit MXF files in Final Cut Pro by converting MTS to FCP native format.
    If you have a Panasonic P2, Canon XF or Sony XDCAM series camcorder,
    you may be familiar with Material eXchange Format (MXF). Though MXF is a
    great video format to record high-definition videos, it is not easy to
    use in that they are not natively supported by most NLE systems like
    Final Cut Pro. In order to import MXF to FCP for editing, the easy workaround is to transcode MXF files to FCP compatible video formats.
    Along with some help from a top MXF Converter, it can be done. To
    help those who wanna edit MXF files in FCP without problems, here I
    share with you a simple guide on how to convert MXF files to edit in
    Final Cut Pro 6/7 or FCP X.
    First of all, downloading the App- Brorsoft MXF Converter for Mac
    Overall, the program is a professional yet easy-to-use MXF Converter
    on Mac (Mavericks included) which can not only convert XF100, Canon
    C300, XF105 and XF305, Panasonic P2 recorded MXF files, but also provide
    simple video editing functions for you. The MXF to FCP Converter not
    only can convert MXF to ProRes for FCP, but also can transcode MXF
    videos for editing in Avid MC, Adobe Premiere Pro, iMovie, FCE, etc.
    Just download it and follow the tutorial below to get the work done.
    Transcoding (P2) MXF files to ProRes for Final Cut Pro 6/7/X
    1. Import MXF files to the converter
    Launch the best MXF to FCP Converter, and then click the “add files” button to browse and import MXF videos from your camcorder or hard drive.
    2. Select FCP editable format
    Click the Format bar, and move mouse cursor to choose “Final Cut Pro > Apple ProRes 422 (*.mov)” as output format.
    Tips:
    a. Settings- click to set video
    resolution(1920×1080/1440×1080/1280×720/720×480), bitrate (from 1Mbps to
    20Mbps), frame rate (24p/30p)
    b. Editor (next to “Add” icon)- click to set deinterlace, trim, crop, add effect, attach subtitles, etc
    3. Start transcoding MXF video to FCP
    Click “Convert” button to start converting MXF files to Apple ProRes
    MOV for FCP 6/7/X under Mac OS. Once the MXF to ProRes 422 conversion
    is done, you can transfer MXF footage into Final Cut Pro (X) for editing
    smoothly on Mac with ease.
