I can't import Microsoft Ofice X Entourage into Outlook 2011 for Mac

I'm trying to import tasks from Microsoft Office X for Mac Entourage into Microsoft Office fo Mac 2011 Outlook and I'm failing miserably. It seems like Outlook only wants to import from Entourage 2004, Entourage 2008, or an Entourage archive. Entourage X doesn't seem to be able to archive?

You may have to do it the hard way. Launch Entourage X (which of course requires booting into something other than Lion). For each folder you've created for your Inbox, create a folder on the desktop by the same name.
Click on the folders one at a time in Entourage. Highlight any email and then press Command+A to select all of them. Drag the emails out of Entourage to the folder by the same name on the desktop. Repeat for each email folder you have. Next, export your contacts and save that to the desktop.
Move or copy all of the data from the desktop to someplace you can get at it from Lion
Restart in Lion and launch Outlook. Create Inbox folders that match the names of the folders you created on your desktop. Drag the contents of each folder into the appropriate email folder in Outlook. Import your contacts.

How can I import an existing csv. file into Outlook on a Mac with OS10.7

Tried to import a csv. file on my Mac (OS 10.7.2) into Microsoft Outlook 2011 (for Mac) on the same computer, ended up with a useless Excel page - it opened the csv file in Excel with only a few contacts and uselessly formatted, at that!. Also, tried to save the csv file as a text file, then importing it into Word 2011 and Excel, with the same results. Anyone able to help? Would like to have the contained address/contact info look concise and neat, without duplicates or garbled/missing information.

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.

Import entourage database into Outlook 2011 for mac

I set up a new macbook from a time machine backup. The main identity for entourage was from the original date of install. Unfortunately, I didn't notice that when I did my initial import so it brought in about two e-mails from 2 years ago but not the entire database. I did a new TM backup of the entire database and chose import in Outlook and it appeared to be going but when it indicated it was finished-- nothing new showed up. What did I do wrong?

I cannot send email from Outlook 2011 (for Mac). But can send from other applications

I have Outlook 2011 for Mac - I have validated the settings and up until yesterday could send and receive emails using my .mac account.
I can send using icloud and mail (I use Outlook for work purposes) and can send in outlook using my work accounts.
My settings
Incoming server - imap.mail.me.com
Use SSL to connect checked.
Outgoing server - smtp.mail.me.com
override default port checked (port 587)
use SSL to connect checked
authentication - Username and password.
I have rebuilt the database - no effect.
I continue to get the error
"Mail could not be sent
The server for account "mac" returned the error. 5.7.8. Bad Username or password (Authentication failed..)" Your username/password or security settings may be incorrect. Would you like to try rentering your password"
I have validated my username and password and rentered them both.
I have emptied the outbox and retried but nothing works.
Thanks for the help.

Update - I now have it working.
am not really sure what exactly fixed it.
I changed a lot of things but my setup now has the following which I think fixed.
outgoing server - p06-smtp.mail.me.com
override default port checked - port now 587
on more options button changed it to "use incoming server info".

I have an iMac running Yosemite 10.10.1 & Outlook 2011 for Mac. For a while, sent emails went to a sent folder on the iMac so I have a collection of sent emails there. How can I move them to a sent box on my server so I can see them on other devices?

I have an iMac 3.2 GHz Intel Core i5 with 16 GB memory and 1.12 TB storage running Yosemite 10.10.1 & Outlook 2011 for Mac. For a while, sent emails went to a sent folder on the iMac so I have a collection of sent emails there. I have attempted to move those sent emails from the iMac to my email server (IMAP), but without success. Is there a way to move them to a sent box on my server so I can see them on other devices? Many thanks for any help you can provide.

Go to: Apple > System Preferences > Universal Access and in the Seeing tab make sure that the Display Enhance contrast: is set to Normal.
Alternatly, try holding the ⌃⌥⌘ (control command alt) keys and then pressing the , (comma) key a few times.

Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac sync Contacts and Calendar issues

OK, so I have a Macbook Pro with OS X Mountian Lion. I have Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac installed. Asked @BlackberryHelp on Twitter how to sync my Blackberry Torch with Outlook as it seems to default to using the builtin Apple Contacts and Calendar instead of Outlook. So they sent me the link to KB19148: "How to synchronize organizer data in Microsoft Office for Mac between the BlackBerry smartphone and a Mac computer using BlackBerry Desktop Software". So I turned on the Sync Services in Outlook and it gave me the dialog box confirming that everything was synced. And it appeared to copy and sync whatever Contacts in the Apple Contacts and calendar entries in the Apple Calendar into Outlook and vice versa. Cool since that's what I wanted.
Then I tried using the Blackberry Desktop Manager to sync everything to my Blackberry Torch 9810. Everything looked like it synced until I opened my Blackberry and all my Contacts were gone. Same with my Calendar entries, except that the Calender entries were hit and miss to whatever copied over (some Calendar entries were missing and others were duplicates). Checked the Apple Contacts and all of them were gone. But when I opened Outlook, everything was there and all OK.
So am I missing something? Turning on Sync Services in Outlook should sync all my Contacts and Calendar with my Blackberry when I use Blackberry Desktop Manager, correct? So why is it still syncing with the Apple Contacts and Calendar (and why did it delete all my Apple Contacts and mess up my Apple Calendar)?
Good thing I backed everything up first so restored everything. But I have all my updated Contacts and Calendar in Outlook and I still need to sync all of that. I don't want to manually do it. So how do I fix this??

After a bit of googling I think you mean the notation "domain\username", i.e., a backslash separator but no leading backslash.
I am not familiar with that notation but apparently it is valid in some contexts. I googled "os x "domain\username"" to confirm this notation. Here's one of the hits that shows the notation:
OS X Lion: Guidelines for connecting to a DFS namespace via SMB
I think "DFS" is a distributed file system. That's as much as I know about this.

Can i push content from icloud to my outlook 2011 on mac?

i'm transitioning from pc to mac.
i bought an imac on which i have installed office 2011.
i want to continue using outlook on my imac.
however, i'm not sure whether to use icloud or office 365 to manage my email, calenders, contacts online.
i have set up an icloud account.
i have also bought a macbook pro, which will serve as my work laptop replacing my hp laptop.
my hardware setup is a home desktop (imac) which will be my main work computer at home.
my macbook pro will be my portable work laptop i will use on travel work.
i have an iphone which i'm only using as an itouch, since my provider is tmobile and they don't support iphones.
i will also be using an ipad 3 for on location assignments.
i want an email setup which will allow me to manage all my different email accounts, calenders, contacts online, but that will sync with my outlook on my mac as opposed to mac mail, ical, address book.
i'm used to working on outlook and would like to continue to use it on my mac.
but i don't know if icloud is the solution? i don't know if icloud will push my content to outlook 2011 on mac?
please HELP??????

julian,
thank you very much for your reply.
nevertheless, just because i went through all the efforts of switching to a mac platform, yes it's true that i do want to try something different, however that does not mean i want to stop using a software that i find very useful.
microsoft has created office 2011 for mac in order to appeal to people like me....but they have stopped short by not allowing outlook for mac to work with industry standard protocols which icloud uses.
therefore, to be honest, outlook is more important to me for managing my contacts, calender and emails than icloud is. i guess i will now have to consider using office 365 as a cloud option which i hope will sync with my outlook on mac version.
i will then be able to manage my emails, contacts, calender via the web, which i can access via web on ipad, macbook pro, iphone, etc....
this may need to be my solution until microsoft updates outlook to work with icloud.
that is unless anyone else has another option i could consider??????
OPEN TO SUGGESTIONS????
thanks again.

Why are missing items when import pst files to Outlook 2011 for mac?

Hello.
After installing Office 2011 for Mac I configured Outlook and it was allright.
But when I tried to import a pst file from the old laptop who has Office 2007, I found that in the Outlook 2011 Inbox I have only ~60% items comparative with the Outlook 2007 Inbox.
From Microsoft Office forums I've got an answer that there are indeed some reports with missing items when import pst in Outlook 2011 but the solution they gave me (create folders in Inbox before import) doesn't work.
Do you know something about this kind of problems?
Is it a feature in Outlook 2011 which automaticaly select/delete/combine items based on the similarity between them or based something else?
Have you an ideea how to finally use this macbook and in the same time all my old emails?
Thanks.

Hi Steve,
Thanks for this-yes, eventually, I do send/receive fine, once I've poppedd my passwords in.
I think you are right in that BT seem to be having unique server/login issues...at least this is what I've read elsewhere too.
Iroonically, this AM I opened my new Mac and have *not* been asked for passwords so perhaps the changes I made in the settings yesterday (keychain reset in Mac) and also changing it from smtp.....to mail.btinternet.com solved the issue...who knows? All I know is this last week I've nearly lost the will to live on more than one occasion, from the transition from PC Windows Live Mail to Outlook for Mac.

Outlook 2011 for Mac with Microsoft Exchange 2007/2010

Hi,
For already a fews days I am troubleshooting a Mac Outlook 2011 <> Exchange sync issue. I've got exact the same symptoms in two totally different environments.
- Environment one:
Exchange 2007 SP3 RU 14 (8.3.379.2)
Outlook 2011 14.4.7
- Environment two:
Exchange 2010 SP1 RU 8 (14.1.438.0)
Outlook 2011 14.4.7
Problem:
Autodiscover and EWS synchronisation test from Microsoft Exchange Connectivity Analyzer is succesfull. Configuring an new (Exchange) e-mail account with Outlook2007/2010/2013 fully based on autodiscover works with no errors.
Configure Outlook 2011 based on autodiscover when connected to the internal LAN works. Configure Outlook 2011 based on autodiscover or by hand doesn't work from WAN.
I am unable to synchronize Outlook 2011 with Exchange when WAN connected (No error in logging). I am able to synchronize OS X Mail (Default OSX Mail client) with the same Exchange server.
Conclusion: the autodiscover function that Outlook 2011 uses does not work from WAN, the autodiscover function that Outlook 2007/2010/2013 and Exchange Connectivity Analyzer is using does work from WAN. Do I need to configure something special for synchronization
with Outlook 2011 other than explained above when working from WAN?
When testing EWS with 3th party tooling(EWS Editor) and Exchange Connectivity Analyzer everything is working as it should be. (all mailbox data is shown). If you need any more information about the context I am happy to provide.
Regards,
Mikkie van Falier

Hey hpujary.
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
At this time, only contacts can be synchronized with BlackBerry Link software and a BlackBerry 10 Smartphones. The functionality to provide more options for PIM synchronization may be added in the future. I cannot say for certain that the issue outlined in KB27248 is resolved for BlackBerry 10 Smartphones as the functionality does not exist to confirm.
Cheers.
