Import personal address book from entourage to addressbook/mail

Whats the most reliable way to import the personal address from Entourage to Addressboo/mail
Thanks

You can do so one of two ways.
With the Address Book application and Entourage launched with each partially visible on the Desktop, select a contact in the Entourage address book and at the menu bar, go to Edit > Select All.
Click and drag all selected/highlighted Entourage contacts to the Address Book "All" Group and then release.
If this doesn't work, create a folder on the Desktop. Click and drag all selected/highlighted Entourage contacts to the folder which will create a copy of each contact as a separate vCard file.
At the Address Book menu bar, go to File > Import and select vCards navigating to the folder on the Desktop which contains the exported Entourage contacts.

Import the address book from entourage to .mail?

Does anyone know how to import the address book from entourage?
I have had major problems with entourage - and I have decided to use .mail.
I have managed to get the email accounts transfered, but I can't figure out how to get the address book.
This is about 15 years of acquiring address, so, it would be a major thing to manually do this, not to mention that I can't find an address book in .mail
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks - I moved the addresses, it wouldn't let me move the groups, but at least I have the major addresses.
One thing that would make .mail better is to be able to do a search on it for an old email that you now need. I hope that comes out with the new osx software.
Thank you so much Alberto.

Migrate existing email and address book from Entourage to OSX Mail?

I have a corrupted version of Entourage and it was suggested I go to Mail. I was also told migration from Entourage was a 'snap'....where do I get detailed steps (what manual) to do this migration? I want to move existing mail, (inbox, sent mail,etc)and my address book.
If it's in fact a 'snap' maybe the instructions can be included in any repsonses I might receive...??
Thx for any help you might offer!

If your Entourage database is corrupt and not fully accessible or accessible at all by Entourage or you are unable to launch the Entourage application, this won't be a snap but the Mail application includes an import mailbox function with Entourage listed as the first email client to choose from. This process does not import Entourage account setup information, only Entourage mailboxes.
At Mail's menu bar, go to File and select Import Mailboxes.
Under "Import Data From", select Microsoft Entourage and then the Continue button.
You will see a connecting to Microsoft Entourage message while the Entourage application launches which is required as part of the import process.
A window will be provided with a list of available Entourage mailboxes to import with all available mailboxes selected by default.
Select Continue and an Import named folder will be created in the mailboxes drawer with all imported mailboxes available within.
For Entourage address book contacts you can do this a number of ways. One way - create a folder on the Desktop named Entourage Contacts or whatever you prefer.
Highlight/select all Entourage address book contacts and then click on and drag the highlighted contacts to the folder created on the Desktop. This will create a separate vCard file for each Entourage contact within this folder.
Launch Address Book and at the menu bar go to File > Import and select vCards navigating to/within the folder on the Desktop that contains the vCard files exported from the Entourage address book.

How do i import my address book from PC to Apple?
Thanks

With many applications it's just a matter of dragging the file that has all the addresses into the address book. If for some reason that doesn't work you can use the import function of the address book. If you happen to have them in Outlook here is one way:

I must import my address book from my old Yahoo account? How do I do that?

I need to import my address book from my old Yahoo account to AOL and
Windows Live. I cannot find a way to do this.
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== I left Yahoo and went to AOL & Windows live.

Sorry, Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser, and thus has no use for an Address Book.
If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, see this forum for support.

When importing my address book from Outlook why do I have multiple entries for the same contact?

I have an address book and it contains one list in Outlook. I just downloaded Thunderbird and imported my address book. The address book and one list imported very easily but there are anywhere from 3-5 entries for each person in my contacts. If I delete the extras they are removed from my list as well. Why are there multiple listings for each contact and how can I remove the duplicates without losing my list entries?

as I was looking thru pictures in my finder I noticed there were several copies of the same pictures I had taken yesterday. I just went thru all Seven copies of the pictures (accidental pics of my hands and the desk etc) and right clicked and moved them to trash, then I thought I'd look it up when I realized its not just these pics, but very many had een stored in groups of three or four.
1. Why is that?
Depends on where you saw them - If they were in the iPhoto library iPHoto has either two or three different versions (no duplicates) or each photos in its library - this is not optional and can not be changed -- If they were not in the iPhoto library then you can do what you please with them and they have nothing to do with iPhoto - iPhoto is only involved with the photos in its library
2. Why is it advised to NEVER make changes to the structure or contents of iPhoto in Finder?
(as quoted Below)
"I would suggest using one of the proven safe programs - if you are going to manually remove them be sure to remember that you NEVER make any chnages to the structure or contents of the iPhoto library using the finder - only make changes using iPhoto"
Very simple - if you do you will destroy your iPhoto library and have to start over losing all work you have done in iPhoto - The iPHoto library is a SQLite database and there are NO user servicable parts in the iPhoto library and any changes made using teh finder will corrupt the database and cause dataloss
Is that a good enopugh reason for you?
So if these photos were in the iPhoto library when you
I just went thru all Seven copies of the pictures (accidental pics of my hands and the desk etc) and right clicked and moved them to trash,
You destroyed your iPhoto library and will either have to restore your backup from before you did this. put everything back EXACTLY like it was before or start over

How do I import the address book from my E72

I just got a iPhone 4 and have over 300 contacts from the phonebook to import from an E72. Can someone advise.
Thx

The iPhone supports syncing contacts with Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 along with syncing calendar events and notes, or with the address book app used by Windows Mail called Windows Contacts for syncing contacts only.
You need get the contacts available in either Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 or in Windows Contacts by whichever method is supported for this with the E72 and Windows - software available for the device that can get the contacts in a supported address book app on your computer or by transferring the contacts from the device to supported address book application on your computer via Bluetooth.

Can I import my address book from a web based program

I have aspire hosting and cant import my address book. I have to many contacts to do this individually. It did import my emails and folders, but not my contact list.

Most email providers have an export function and it would export the address book. You will have to get those instructions from your provider.
In Thunderbird the Import option is on the menu bar in the address book under Tools.
Here are instructions for Yahoo but they should be similar for most providers.
