I can't import mails from Outlook 2003.

Importation (option in the Tools menu) crashes and generates an error notification. I have several folders in the inbox of my Outlook and archived old messages (in different pst files). Could it be the reason for the failure?

Thank you very much.
I uninstalled Version 31, install version 24 and it works. I could import all the messages (several folders and different pst archives). I could not import email account configuration but it was not a big problem to configure de accounts manually in TB.
After all, I installed again version 31 and now I have all my emails in the last TunderBird version and all the add-ons working fine.
Now I can forget my Outlook 2003.
I am very grateful for the help you have given me.
It would be perfect if I found some way to sincronize my ThunderBird contacts with my contacts in the android smartphone.

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.

Can't sent mail from outlook

I'm a mac.com acount user. for a long time.
This changed to me.com and later to Icloud.com.
Since my storage has been set lower on 5GB on 30 sept 2013 its not possible anymore to sent mail from outlook.
On the 30 sept we got a message to delete some files in the icloud because our memory was to high.
But after changing to enough space the problems did not go away.
error: 0x80004005 de bewerking mislukt.
I can receive all mails from all my .mac and .me accounts.
And I can sent mails from outlook .com, but I don't want to use that
Can someone explain what happened and how to make it work
Thx
John

Allan - Here's the other odd thing. Currently, I have my old mail account AND my new MM account both feeding into and out of Outlook. But since adding my MM acct. - even though I set it as my default mail acct. - the hierarchy tree of Outlook folders is still treating my old acct. as king and my new MM acct. as second class. I know, what's that mean? I have my overriding "Personal Folders" folder, with the sub-folders (in addition to customized ones I added) - all of these at the same level - 'Deleted Items'; 'Inbox' (for my old account); 'Junk E-mail'; 'RSS Feeds'; 'Sent Items' and "Search Folders". Then, below that, but at the same hierarchy level as "Personal Folders", I have my MM's root of an IMAP store folder that has as its name my email address, including the "@me.com". Under that, at the same level of importance as my 'Deleted Items', etc. for my old account is my MM account's "Inbox", "Junk E-mail", "Sent" (which, like I said, I created when I sent the first email from my newly created MM account), and "Search Folders"... that's it. If I delete an email from my MM acct., or am in the process of creating an email in my MM acct., I can only find it in the aforementioned "Deleted Items" or "Draft" folders, as my MM acct. doesn't have these. Is this perhaps one indicator of my sent mail synching problem? Or does one have nothing to do with the other? Does Outlook only provide one each of "Drafts", "Deleted Items" and "Outbox" that all accounts share?

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.

Can't import emails from outlook express into mail

Just bought a macbook, I'm new into MAC, I'm a MAC ROOKIE. I'm trying to import my email from my microsoft outlook express to my MAC MAIL, I followed the instructions to import from outlook but when I locate the outlook files for my emails (they have extension .dbx but it won't let me select the files. Besides in the outlook folder there are dozens of files (1 per email subfolder). What am I doing wrong that I can't import the emails, nor the address book?
Thxs!!!
Avecesar

Pay attention to the information Mail displays during the import process. It could be that it wants you to select the folder that contains the files to be imported, rather than the files themselves.
EDITED: Now that I've read your post again, I don't think you're going to be able to do this on your MacBook, as importing from Outlook Express requires that application to be running in the "Classic" environment, which isn't available for Intel-based Macs.
Disclaimer: I know next to nothing about how importing from Outlook Express is supposed to work, so take what I say with a grain of salt.

I can't import contacts from Outlook to Address Book

I've tried to do the research before asking this question, but I can't get this to work. How do you import contacts from Microsoft Outlook to Address book? When I try to export from Outlook, the only option I have is .csv file, it doesn't give me an option to export as a vcard. I've exported to a .csv file and tried importing this into Address Book as a text file, and it opens up a window called Text File Import. When I click OK nothing happens. I'm new to the Mac world so I don't know what I'm doing wrong or what I'm missing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

One way if you are still accessing an email account with Outlook is the following:
In Contacts, click the contact you want to send as a vCard or select all to send all, and then on the Actions menu, click Forward as vCard.
All contacts will be added to a new message created as separate vCard attachments. Send the message to an email account you are accessing with the Mail.app on the Mac.
Create a folder on the Mac desktop or in your location of choice and save all vCard attachments received via email to this folder.
Launch Address Book and at the menu bar, go to File > Import and select vCards navigating to the folder that contains the vCard files sent from 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

Can't sync calendar from outlook 2003 to iphone

just purchased iphone and calendar won't sync. Help?

Don't worry about taking up my time. If I didn't have it, I wouldn't be here on the computer trying to help. You are talking about a contacts folder in Outlook 2003? The address book is when you click on sending a new mail and then click on the To: Am I correct? I think you should try and export your pst file and then try opening the new file in Outlook and see if that will correct things. You might need to go to the Microsoft site to get help in how to import the file. I am using Outlook 2010 and cannot remember the exact commands that would help you. I cannot remember if it is under Tools or somewhere else for you to export the file. It could be under File, then Export if 2003. After you save that file, then go to file and open, and then navigate to the new file and see if that opens a new Outlook pst file for you. You can then try and sync with the new one and see if that works. I hope that helps, but trying to remember all of the commands can be difficult. I teach Microsoft Office and having to remember all of the new ones can be difficult enough!

Import mail from Outlook 2013 to firefox does not complete

Hi and thanks,
I am trying to move away from Windows Office 2013 - Firefox is good but unless I can import all of my mail, contacts and calender a problem.
I have followed instructions to import mail - but only inbox and deleted items come across, I have some 40 folders full of mail I want to import - it seems as if the import process gets held up at about 10% - does this take hours or should it be relatively quick?
Cheers Nick

Ok this is filed under Thunderbird, so I will assume your references to Firefox are in error.
You appear to have added your account as POP. Try adding it as IMAP.
File menu (Alt+F) >new>existing mail account
now delete the old pop mail account, once everything arrives from the server.
Tools menu ALT+T) > account settings and use the account actions button at the bottom of the list.

Can't import mail from OS9 backup folder

I recently got an Intel Mac Mini and had the Apple Store transfer files from my G3 PB, running OS9.2. My mail from an old version of Mozilla shows up in a DATA BACKUP folder on the mini. For instance there is an "Inbox" which opens with TextEdit. "Inbox.msf" opens in Excel. When I open the OSX Mail application and go to Import Mailboxes I checked Netscape/Mozilla and tried to choose "Inbox" but it is grey and not selectable. Is there a way to do this? Thanks for any help.
Owen

Hello all,
Thank you for your help, but I figured it out on my own.
Here is how I did it.
1. If you are moving "Mailboxes" you've created on a PPC Mac to an Intel Mac
you must have the Same Versions of OS X running on each system.
Please note that this is for people who are just setting up there NEW INTEL MAC and wish to transfer "Mailboxes" from the PPC Mac, and can not get the Migration Assistant to work.
If you've already created New "Mailboxes" on the Intel system they may be overwritten/replaced using this process. Resulting in the loss of any newly created "Mailboxes" on the Intel.
2. Be sure you have Tiger updated to the same versions on both systems.
3. On the PPC Mac, go to your Users/(your user name here)/Library/Mail folder.
4. Locate in the Mail folder a folder named "Mailboxes".
5. Copy the "Mailboxes" folder from the PPC Mac to an external hard drive.
6. Eject the hard drive from the PPC Mac and turn off the hard drive.
7. Connect the external hard drive to the Intel Mac and turn on the hard drive.
8. Wait for the external drive to mount.
9. Be sure that the MAIL application is not running on the Intel Mac, then go to Users/(your user name here)/Librery/Mail.
10. Look inside the Mail Folder. Do you see a folder named "Mailboxes"?
11. If yes, see step 13.
12. If no, see step 14.
13. Stop and I will try to post another solution for tranfering "Mailboxes" into an existing "Mailboxes" folder so you don't overwrite or replace your new "Mailboxes"
14. If you don't see a folder named "Mailboxes" in your Mail folder, do the following.
15. Drag and drop the "Mailboxes" folder you copied onto the external drive, into the "Mail" folder on the Intel Mac.
16. After all of the files have been copied to the Intel Mac, Start the MAIL application.
17. All of the "Mailboxes" you copied over should now appear in the "Mailboxes" list under your mail accounts list.
Hope this helps anybody else who has run into this problem.

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
Powerbook Mac OS X (10.4.3)

I can only import emails from outlook express to TB for one identity. How do I import emails for my other account identities?

I'm using a portable version of Thunderbird because I want to use TB to collect emails for a few different accounts that I have scattered on different machines.
For example I have [email protected] on machine one and machine two. [email protected] is also on machines one and two.
After setting up accounts one and two in the portable app I can only import the messages for account one. I have tried many times over the last two days. Thunderbird does not want to import the messages for account two.
What do I need to do to import emails for multiple accounts into Thunderbird?

Does [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Import_from_Outlook_Express#Importing_more_than_one_Outlook_Express_identity this method] for identities apply to your setup?
Keep in mind also that OE messages are eml files that can be dragged directly from Explorer to a TB folder, e.g. one created under Local Folders.
