Import Accounts from AD to OD

Hello All,
How can I import accounts from the AD into the OD? I have my directories set up and working fine. My server is an OD master connected to an AD domain, and I can see all of the AD accounts in the Workgroup Manager.
How can I now import those AD accounts into my OD? I was able to do it before with the simple "Server Preferences" setup, but now that I went with the "Advanced" setup I can't figure out how to get those accounts to show up in the OD...
I tried putting all the AD accounts into a group I created in the OD, but I still can't use any of those accounts to access a shared folder over AFP. Doesn't matter if I configure the Sharepoint to use the group, or if I put the AD accounts directly into the ACL.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Chris

Update:
I've been going through the Apple integration guides and also the guides available at afp548.com, but they all talk about doing all this complicated crap like moving the user profiles. I'm not interested in any of that -- what I want to do is very simple.
I just want to give my AD accounts access to the Mac services (Wiki and iCal). I don't care about user profiles or anything like that.
Can anyone help me to simply give my AD users access to iCal and Wiki?
Thanks,
Chris

  • Cannot import accounts from Mail 2.1.2 to Mail 3.1

    My goal is to get my email accounts including 'Sent' mail to show up in Mail 3.0.
    I got a Macbook Pro (running Leopard) to replace my old Powerbook G4 (running 10.4.11). I am trying to import my accounts but am having no luck.
    _Here's what I did:_
    1. I imported the mailboxes from my old Mac. This worked fine.
    2. I copied the accounts folders from ~Library/Mail on the old Mac to the same place on the new Mac
    3. I copied com.apple.mail.plist file from Preferences on the old Mac to the same location on the new Mac.
    The Result:
    The imported email accounts do NOT show up when I open Mail.
    Like many other people that post here, my archive of sent email is among the most valuable (to me) information on my machine.
    Thanks for your help.

    ok, when you open mail>preferencs>accounts, I assume your email accounts are showing up, with correct setting?
    go to mail>file>import mailboxes, then choose the osx version, then point leopard mail to the path/location where you moved the mailboxes from your powerbook, i.e. homefolder/library/mail, in that mail folder, you will see folders for each of your email accounts, and in these folders you will see the mailboxes for each account, that is where you want to point to.
    then import... leopard mail will create an import mailbox where the emails imported will show. once that is done, then you can create new mailboxes if you choose and move these emails there, thereby not needing the import mailbox anymore.
    hope this helps

  • Import Account from Previous System

    Through a series of stupid moves, I have ended up with a newly installed operating system that has a new account. But I need to import my previous account that is now part of a Previous System folder. When I try to use Migration Assistant, I am unable to to tell it to import from the Previous System folder that is on my current drive.
    Is there anyway around this? Should I copy that user folder to an external drive and bring it in that way?
    Any suggestions would be great.
    Thanks in advance

    Everything was going smoothly until it got to the Library folder--then the troubles continued. It seems that folder would not copy over to the Laptop without a permissions error.
    Make sure you do not confuse the root level Library folder with the library folder in your home folder. You should have had an image file of your entire original home folder if you followed the Apple procedure, & *while logged in as the root user* copied the entire folder into the root level /Users/ folder in one step. This would copy everything in the home folder over, including its Library folder & all its contents. There should be no permissions issues because the root user is "god" & has permissions to do almost anything.
    I assume you now have an image file of the original home folder on something other than the laptop's drive -- otherwise it would have been erased when you "wiped" your laptop. I suggest that you now do the following:
    1. When the install completes, create the first user account with some name *other than* the name of your archived home folder.
    2. Follow the 12 step procedure in How to get files from a previous home directory after Archive and Install very carefully.
    3. You should see the message mentioned in step 9 about using the existing home folder you moved to Users in step 7.

  • How can i import contacts from another AIM account to this new one

    If you reference my last ichat question, you will see that I have had serious problems and had to create a new account.
    How can I import contacts from another AIM account to this new one??

    Hi,
    Use AIM for Mac and use the Export and Import features.
    Other than that it is a question on making sure every Single Buddy has more than just their Screen name in the IChat Address Card so it is added to the Address Book and dragging them back from there

  • How can I import photos from photo stream to windows photo gallery? These photos are not on the camera roll on my iPad but are from another iPad on the same iCloud account.

    I work at a Learning Center that has 12 iPads on the same iTunes and iCloud account.  Each classroom uses an iPad assigned to their room to take photos.  Each of these photos then shows up in the Photo Stream in all 11 of the other iPads.  I have no trouble importing photos that are in the Camera Roll of any individual iPad, but I have not been able to import photos from the Photo Stream if the picture was not taken on the specific iPad I am using.  It is not feasible for me to collect all 12 iPads everyday to import everyones photos, so how can I use one "master" iPad that will let me import photos from the Photo Stream since it has all the photos that everyone has taken? 

    You downloaded an iCloud backup to your PC?  I assume you mean you downloaded your photo stream to your PC.  What you may not know is that photo stream only keeps your photos for 30 days.  After that, they are deleted from photo stream but not from any device that already has them (such as your phone).  When you enabled photo stream on your PC you only had access to photos from the last 30 days since the others are no longer there, even though they remain on your phone.
    To transfer these to your computer at this point you have two options:
    Save them to the camera roll on your phone (by opening the my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap all the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.  (You can only import photos to your computer from the Camera Roll album.)  Then import them to your computer as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083; or
    Use an app like PhotoSync, which can wirelessly transfer photos from any album between your devices/computers, including the my photo stream album.
    In the future, always import your photos from your camera roll to your computer via USB before deleting them.  Don't rely on photo stream or your iCloud backup to save your photos.

  • How do i import contacts from my hotmail account

    how do i import contacts from my hotmail account? Every time i try, there's a message that keeps popping up saying that it can't do because the contacts aren't separated by commas...????? Please help, i'm a recent "switcher"
    thanks

    The short answer, for now, is you don't. It's increasingly clear that Microsoft does not want to extend this privilege to users of free HotMail accounts, not does it want to offer POP3 access to anyone other than paying HotMail Plus users at this point, and for the foreseeable future. And, IMAP: that's out of the question, apparently.
    While the plugin idea is a nice one, the referenced open-source HTTPMail plug in is broken by Mac OS X 10.5, and nothing has been heard to date from the developer about an update to support Mail in Leopard.

    Save the file from Gmail onto your computer and add it to iTunes.  How you save from Gmail is a Gmail question (their own support pages), not an iTunes question.

  • How can I import mailboxes from Eudora to my new POP Mail account?

    Good afternoon!
    I have 10.4.11 on my Mac Mini and want to transfer my mail service from Eudora to Mail. I opened a POP account, but when I tried to import mailboxes from the Eudora Folder stored in Documents I got an Error message: No valid Eudora files were found.
    I know the mailbox folder is in the Eudora Folder in Documents, so why can't Mail find it?

    I'm not sure if you need Eudora Mailbox Cleaner, but you might take a look at it.

  • I can no longer open numbers and am therefore barred from access to important accounts - what do i do next

    I can no longer open numbers and am therefore barred from access to important accounts.What do I do next?

    Hi mp,
    If you updated to OS X Mavericks, there may have been an automatic update to Numbers 3. Numbers 3 will be in your Applications folder. Numbers '09 has not been replaced. Look for Numbers '09 (Numbers 2.3) in a folder called iWork '09 inside your Applications folder. You can run both versions of Numbers at the same time.
    I have icons for both versions on my Dock. Drag each to the Dock from Applications folder and Applications > iWork '09 folder. Right click on each and Options > Keep in Dock. Now you have the choice of which to use.
    Numbers 2 (3 column chart) on the left. Numbers 3 (4 column chart) on the right.
    If a document won't open, try opening from within each version. Or right click on the document and Open With...
    You can Export a Numbers 3 document back to Numbers '09 with Menu > Export > Numbers '09...
    Post back if you have problems.
    Regards,
    Ian.

  • Clientbased Outlook-Integration: Import Contacts/Accounts from CRM to Outlo

    Hi,
    I set up the clientbased Outlook-Integration von CRM 2007. Everything works fine besides the synchronization of Contacts/Accounts from CRM to Outlook.
    What are the requirements for a contact to be imported to Outlook?
    Can anybody help?
    Thanks in advance,
    Ben.

    Ben,
    the standard relationship for this is BUR011. we have given a customizing under SPRO where you can maintain that.
    Once that is done the contacts where the logged-in employee is correctly assigned to would go to the outlook folder.
    if that does not work pls send me an e-mail and we can check your system remotely

    I have not been able to import contacts from google or my android to my new I-phone 5. This article helps to a point until error message "cannot create account ... already exist" is received. Please help.

    -Reece,
    We only have 1 single domain, 1 domain forest, no subdomains, only alias. I had replied to the other post as well. But I am happy to paste it here in case anyone want to read it.
    So, after a few months of testing, capture and sending logs back and forth to Apple Engineers, we found out there is a setting in AD, under User Account that prevent us to log into AD from Mountain Lion. If you would go to your AD server, open up a user account properties, then go to Account tab, the "Do not require Kerberos preauthentication" option is checked. As soon as I uncheck that option, immediately I was able to log into AD on the Mac client. Apple engineers copied all my AD settings and setup a test environment on their end and match exact mine AD environment. They was able to reproduce this issue.
    The bad part about this is... our environment required the "Do not require Kerberos preauthentication" is checked in AD, in order for our users to login into some of our Unix and Linux services. Which mean that it is impossible for us to remove that check mark because most, if not all of them some way or another require to login into applications that run on Unix and Linux. Apple is working to see if they can come up with a fix. Apparently, no one has report this issue except us. I believe most of you out there don't have that check mark checked in your environment... Anyone out there have any suggestion to by pass or have a work around for this?

  • Why can't i import photos from a different user account?

    Why when i import photos to iphoto from my user account it works fine. If i try importing them from the other user account it the photo it shows the event folder in the events page but when you go into it there are no photos, and when you close the app it dissappears completely. I dont understand why it is doing this? The iphoto library is actually from the other user account so there shoudnlt be any sharing issues. The only thing is that i iorignially installed on the other user account but it all started when i updated it to iphoto11 and installed it on my account. that shouldnt make a difference though??
    Also if it is not possible to be able to import from both accounts how can i change it so that the other account is able to import only and not from my account?

    I have the same iphoto library selected for both user acounts
    How?
    and share my photos is checked on both accounts from preferences.
    If they use the same Library, why are you sharing this way?

  • Import mail accounts from snow leopard

    I had a Mac OS X 10.6 server with mailserver enabled.
    The system drive went down, but I managed to save most of the data after weeks of work.
    However, in the meantime, I had to setup a new mailserver on a Mac OS X 10.7 lion server.
    So, now the new mailserver has all new mails, but I need to import the old mails into the new accounts.
    OD accounts was exported from OS X 10.6 server and imported to OS X 10.7
    How can I import the mail data into the new accounts from my recovered data, without deleting the new mails ?
    I don't think the migrate process will work, as the new server is up and running and has a lot of new mails already....
    ( by the way, there is an error in Apple's documentation for migrating script process.... )

    Could you please explain the whole process of exporting mail from Snow to Lion. I have been trying for weeks on two diffrent computers and I can not get it to work.
    I have moved the library, not sure to delete the envelopes. How do you export the  mbox-files ? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!
