Import from outlook 2011 in mail

How can I import E-mail from Outlook 2011 to Mail

I did a little testing and all I can come up with is the following:
In OSX Mail, select your message and click File, Save As.
Format is Raw Message Source.
Be sure to have a .eml extension at end of the filename.
Open Outlook and drag the message file onto your Inbox (or whatever folder in your Mail.)
Notes:
Outlook must have focus when you drag the message in.  IOW, click on Outlook to bring it to the front before dragging the message in.
You must Save As each message individually.  Selecting multiple message in OSX Mail, will combine all the messages into one file, which Outlook import as just one message.  (And import very badly.)
Of course, it's obviously gonna be a pain importing messages individually, but you asked.
BTW, just to make sure you're fully warned, getting your data out of Outlook later is nearly impossible.  Try the Export function in Outlook for Mac and you'll see what I mean.  (It's like Hotel California.  You can check out anytime you like but you can never leave.  )
I second that emotion

  • Garbled mails after importing from Outlook 2011 to Apple mail

    I want to migrate from Outlook 2011 to Apple mail. I found 2 ways to do this:
    Copy mail folder by mail folder to a Finder folder as .mbox files, and then importing them into Apple mail
    creating an imap account on Outlook, synchronizing mails with the imap server, and then connecting from Apple mail to the same server, thereby re-importing mails to Apple mail
    With both methods I have the same problem: some mails arrive completely garbled, below is an example. It seems that mostly HTML mails and mails with attachments are affected, but there are also some ordinary text mails which look weird. The strange thing is: they all look absolutely perfect in Outlook 2011!
    I have migrated my mail file from every computer I had since about 12 years, first some PCs, and about 1.5 years ago to a Mac. My suspicion is that mails dating back to the "pre-Mac era" are affected, because the latest ones are all perfect. Any ideas?

    Thank you Csound1, this is what I did. Bought EMailchemy (which costs 30$, not 20$), but which worked perfectly. I had to do some manual work, because the mails will be exported from Outlook, you have to import them folder by folder into Apple Mail and then move them over to the mail account, but now everythig is perfect. I can only recommend this product.
    Sorry about the price error, didn' realize it had increased, but still the best $30 you'll spend

  • Can't import from OUTLOOK EXPRESS 5 to Mail

    I was trying to import contacts and e-mails from OUTLOOK EXPRESS and somehow all my information seemed to be erased from OUTLOOK.
    When I try to open it up it doesn't have all my emails and addresses. It's as if it just got installed. I don't know where to look for this info in my hard drive.
    Called APPLE and they told me that it could be that it got corrupted and deleted.
    I have years of information in there. Any suggestions?

    Outlook 5 -> Mail
    You can't go directly from Outlook 5 to Mail but you can do Outlook 5 -> Entourage -> Mail and that works very well
    Your mail in Outlook 5 (I am assuming you're running Outloook Express 5.x under OS 9.2.x) is in the MUD folder. You'll find it in Documents > Microsoft User Data > Identities > Main Identity
    If the Main identity is empty do a search for "Main Identity" and see if there are any other folders of the same name
    If you can't locate it, restore it from a backup, import it into Entourage and then into Mail

  • 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.

  • How can I migrate from Outlook 2011 to iCal and Apple Address Book in Mavericks now that synching is no longer possible?

    Now that I am on Mavericks and no longer able to sync between my iPhone/iPad and Outlook 2011 on my MacBook Pro, I'm finally taking the leap (which I should have done long ago) and abandoning Outlook 2011 all together (doesn't help that Outlook now prompts me to rebuild by Identity multiple times per day). I am hoping to export from Outlook to iCal, Address Book, etc, but I would love it if someone could check my steps.
    Delete iCal and Apple Address Book content -- Because I have old data in iCal and Address Book (that was synched before I upgraded to Mavericks), I planned to delete this data as follows:
    Manually deleting my multiple calendars in the iCal app
    Go to Go>Home>Library>Calendars and drag "Calendar Cache" to trash
    Go to Go>Home>Library>Caches and drag "com.apple.iCal" and "com.apple.AddressBook" to the trash
    Go to Go>Home>Library>Application Support and drag "Address Book" to the trash
    Export Outlook 2011 Calendars to iCalIs there a file format that I can use to export from Outlook 2011 and then import into iCal? I will use this file format to individually export each of my calendars from Outlook 2011 and import them into iCal.
    Export Outlook 2011 Contact List to Apple Address BookIs there a file format that I can use to export from Outlook 2011 and then import into Apple Address Book?
    Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi acs4055,
    As per your query I found a relevant solution for resolving this,  actually I haven’t tried the steps you wrote here in your query.  But I found a solid key answer for exporting from Mac OS X Mavericks (10.9.1) Outlook 2011 to iCal for Apple mail. This is possible through Drag and Drop method via this you can undoubtedly migrate Outlook 2011 Calendar to ical format.
    Hope it will assist you and you will be able to attain a desired solution.

  • Transfer emails from outlook 2011 for mac to Outlook 2010 for windows

    Hi,
    I want to transfer emails from outlook 2011 for mac to outlook 2010 for windows. 
    Outlook 2011 exports mails only in olm format and there is no option to import olm files in outlook 2010.
     I can drag and drop emails from outlook 2011 to a finder folder which saves emails as eml files. How can import eml files into outlook 2010. 
    Please help

    Hi, 
    Thank you for using
    Microsoft Office for IT Professionals Forums.
    Base on the research ,
    We can try the steps below to add the registry sub key. This will open all .eml files that are in the file system using Outlook, including *.eml attachments on messages in OE/WLM. Any replies will be sent
    using Outlook.
    ===========
    Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the
    registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem
    occurs.
    1.Type
    regedit in the Search field on the Start menu or press
    Windows Key+ R and enter it in the Run command.
    2.Navigate to
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Microsoft Internet Mail Message WLMail\shell\open\command
    Or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Microsoft Internet Mail Message\shell\open\command
    3. Change the command line (here its "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Live\Mail\wlmail.exe" /eml:%1)
    to the following line, exactly as shown below but correcting the path to Outlook.exe to match the path on your computer.
    "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\OUTLOOK.EXE" /eml "%1"
    Thanks for your understanding.

  • How to export from Outlook 2011 to Outlook 2013?

    As an Outlook user of old when I bought my Mac I was keen to try out Outlook 2011 for Mac which managed to import my Windows PSTs without any issues.
    However, now I have a Windows 8 machine running Outlook 2013 I want to go the other way and I don't see any easy way of doing so.
    I'm hoping that someone can tell me how I export all of my mail from Outlook 2011 to Outlook 2013
    without having to buy a 3rd party tool given the investment I've already made in the Microsoft platform.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    As in my estimation, it’s not viable to export Outlook 2011 to Outlook 2013 Windows 8 without having any third party tool, somehow without any payment it is possible, by using any free trial version for limited file conversion you can try any reliable third
    party tool but for multiple or unlimited Mac OLM files conversion you have to make use of a third party tool. In the midst of various third party tools it’s too complicated to find out that, which tool is reliable for making this conversion.
    Or else can try manual procedure for this conversion, but its lengthy and no surety. Outlook Mac Exporter software is one of the reliable tool for exporting Mac Outlook 2011 items to PST file format. You also can try this tool and I am sure it will provide
    you desiring Outcome by exporting OLM files to PST file format.

  • Why don't private appointments synched from Outlook 2011 (for Mac) show up on my iPad2?

    I have an iPad2, and have upgraded to iOS5. I sync my mail/calendar from Outlook 2011 for Mac. Recently (after the upgrade to iOS5), I noticed that the appointments marked "private" in Outlook no longer sync to my iPad, though they do sync to my iPhone 4 (also running iOS5).
    Any suggestions?

    I am a doofus. All I needed to do was go into settings, click on keynote and turn iCloud on in keynote.

  • Entourage 2008 - Importing from Outlook 2007 ???

    Hi guys, just got a MacBook Pro this week and I had reserved a copy of Office 2008 which I got today.
    It's great because that's what I was waiting for to put my PC on sale
    BUT i was astonished to see that there's not the option to import pst files in Entourage ??
    I was using Office 2007 for PC therefore Outlook 2007.
    The only way we can export stuff is by creating .PST files, so you can backup all your contacts, your messages with attachements and your calendar (which are my 3 priorities).
    Using the equivalent application from Microsoft but for the Mac, that is : Entourage 2008, there's not the option to import .pst ?? What the heck ??
    So please guys if you know a way to export my stuff (messages, contacts and calendar) from Outlook 2007 PC to Entourage 2008 MAC, please let me know !!!
    THANK YOU !!

    Hey guys,
    I don't want to be repeting by here's the way I worked this out :
    EMAILS
    First I installed Thunderbird on my Win computer.
    Then I imported from outlook. It took a while since my PST was like 3 Gb.
    At first I was crashing it but then I let it work for a try and it imported everything perfectly, but not showing any progress bar during the process.
    Second, I searched Thunderbird help for the way to export in MBOX, and it pointed out that I sould get a plug-in, which I did.
    Third, having installed the plug-in, I had a tool menu for exporting. Only thing I had to do is select each folder one by one and export them using this plug-in, I only had to add .MBOX extention to every file.
    Finally, when you get these files in OS X with entourage, you just drag and drop them in entourage and them import perfectly.
    That did the job for me anyways.
    CONTACTS
    Send yourself emails of contacts !
    I sent myself email (with the WORK OFFLINE option so I wouldn't receive them in outlook) in the contacts from outlook.
    As you can imagine, I totally got rid of Outlook, and of Windows actually, by now but as I remember it when you right click on a contact you have an item that's called something like "send full information of contact through email".
    So to keep my categories I sent one email per categories.
    Back in entourage, I had to save attachements, import them, put them in a category.
    Then next email, etc. and so on.
    CALENDAR
    I haven't found a way to do this but what I did was : In outlook you have a way to display your calendar events by a list, so I just made a couple of print screen of that list and I put the future events that I wanted to keep in Entourage.
    And the conclusion is :
    Well I said byebye to Entourage because I don't need MS Exchange support and I hate Microsoft more and more everyday so I'm using Mail, Address Book and iCal now
    But I could easily import from entourage into all of these.
    The only microsoft apps I still are the must-have : word, excel and powerpoint 2008.

  • Unable to snyc calender and contacs from outlook 2011 for mac

    iTunes won't sync calenders and contacts from Outlook 2011 for Mac
    OS Mavericks 10.9.5
    iTunes 12.0.1.26
    Also tried on iTunes 11.4

    I don't receive an error, i am syncing to iPhone and iPad... I connect the device to the MacBook with the cable, open iTunes and click on the device on iTunes then go to info tick sync contacts but it doesn't show me any contacts below, then tick sync calender and i could see the calenders and then I select the calender that i want to sync and press apply... the sync icon appears as if it is syncing and the disappeared after a few minutes.  When i check the iPhone or the iPad the calender and contacts are empty.
    I have enabled the sync services in outlook for mac 2011 and ticked calender, contacts and tasks and select the account to sync and the outlook folder to add new items to but still it does not sync anything.
    I went to the iStore technical support and the technicians were unable to help me they just told me that Apple has removed the functionality, to me it looked like they were clueless
