Import Windoze OL2000 PST mail into Mac OSx MS Entourage2004 or Osx Mail

Anyone aware of any Mac based scripts/conversion utilities that will convert within the following caveats/parameters?:
* Must run on OSx 10.4.10+ Intel C2D - (Yes I'm aware of Windoze based options to say re-export PST to CSV/Tab delim formats etc as interim stage - unfortunately this is not currently a feasable option)
* Must be importable into either Tiger OSx Mail V 2.1.1 (752.3) or MS Entourage 2004 V 11.3.6 (070618)
* Must retain original attachments.
* Must successfully work on MS Office 2000 Outlook produced (pst) files.
So far my searches of similar archived requests (here and elsewhere) appear to offer inconclusive (or non feasable) solutions. eg Assuming that OL2000(Win) pst format is identical to OL2001(Mac) pst format etc etc.
I don't mind paying for utility if it works!

With 10.3 server and 200 Server, you're, well, running some older stuff there. The 2000 server is a Master Domain Controller - that means it is the head server on the windows domain. I's probably the only server as well, yes? In any event, that means the windows clients rely on it for just about everything, most likely.
I could go on a bit here, but here's the quick answer.
There's a good article about integrating AD (windows server) and OD (Mac servers) here
http://www.afp548.com/filemgmt/visit.php?lid=12
Adding an excahnge server into the mix, meaning you're administering an email server, is a whole 'nother story. Added to the fact that you're using old software, and presumably old hardware makes it more difficult to hire a consultant. Consultants want to leave you knowing that they have installed a stable and secure setup. That's hard to do with 2K server and 10.3 server.
If this is a business that relies on servers you may wish to consider a new server, whether it be Apple or Windows, and hire a consultant to set it up. Email servers are an entirely different beast requiring extra care, feeding, and backup. Places like http://www.swishmail.com provide reliable email at way less costs and with very little aggravation, and no maintenance for small to medium companies.
Discussions are a great place for - can you send me a link to get started, or I've done this, this, this and that, and now I'm stuck - what did I miss?
You're asking for a lot more than that, and it would be difficult for anyone to give you a good answer.

  • HT2486 How do I import existing Outlook contact groups into Mac Address Book?

    After months of problems with Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac, I am switching to Mac Mail. I seem to have successfully imported my individual contacts into Address Book. However, I have been unsuccessful in figuring out how to import group contacts into Mac Mail.
    So far I have created .txt files, (a separate one for each group), listing each e-mail address in that group separated by a comma. Can I input this information into Address Book somehow? If not, how else can I import my groups into Address Book in a more efficient way than manually entering them? Manually dragging and dropping names into each new Address Book group is not an option, since I  have about 50 groups with 20-50 people in each of them. It would take me extraordinary amounts of time to do that, not to mention the frustration.
    A second question: There are many duplicates listed in my address book. When I select Card>Look for Duplicates, it tells me that No duplicates are found. They most definitely exist, however. How can I erase them without having to manually delete each duplicate?

    You can't transfer the groups, you'll need to do it the hard way.
    As for the duplicates, how many accounts do you have in your Address Book?

  • Import Canon HF20 video-files into Mac

    Hello!
    I just bought a new camcorder, Canon Vixia HF20. I installed the following cd called; Digital video, solution disk, which I was supposed to use to import the video-files into my mac.
    When I installed it, I plugged in the camcorder with the USB, but the program says "no camera was found".
    It tried to set the USB connection type to computer/printer, but it didn't work...
    Is there somebody who could help me with this please? I think it is ridiculous if a well-known producer as Canon cannot make their programs for macs! It has to be a solution to this?
    Thanks.

  • Importing .csv or .tab files into MAC Address Book

    Trying to get my MS Outlook Contacts onto my new MAC but for some reason the MAC address book will not recognize the .csv or .txt files that outlook generates in its Export process.  I've opened the files in excel and in Numbers and they look fine - the MAC just doesn't like them for some reason.
    Anyone out there encounter this problem and possibly have a solution?

    There are converters available, online or downloadable so get one, export a .csv, convert it to .vcf and import that.
    Here's a link to one in the app store, it's free. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/csv-to-vcard/id713295900?mt=12

  • How to include the exchange sub folder's unread mail into the "UNREAD" group in default exchange mail app in iPhone ?

    I am using ios 7.0.2. I have many sub folders in my exchange mail box. Problem is when any mail comes to the sub folder, it is not counted as unread mail and it also does not be visible under the unread mail group. The unread mail group only shows the unread mails which have come directly to inbox but not the mails which comes to the sub folder according to the set rule. Have any one noticed this ridiculous thing? Is there any solution or it's a bug??

    I have the same problem. On the IPad and IPhone I can easilly connect to our Exchange server. When setting up a MacBook Air, using the same settings (account/server address etc) it doesn't work...
    Does anyone have a solution for this?
    Thanks!

  • Mail for Mac on new hard drive won't import Mail from old hd

    I recently installed an additional hard drive (running Tiger), but I kept my old one (running Panther), too, to use as a backup.
    After resolving a few snags, the data and apps transferred over OK, but two days ago I (very foolishly) tried to make a change in the name I use as Administrator (or at least that's what I meant to do), and all the apps on my new hard drive forgot their passwords, preferences, etc.
    What a pain!
    I'll eventually get all the preferences, etc., set; but Mail on the new hd also lost everything--addresses, trash, sent messages; and that's got me baffled.
    My old hd still has Mail on it (including addresses, etc.), but I haven't been able to import data from it to Mail on the new hd.
    In the new Mail, under the File menu, when I choose "Import Mailboxes" and select the button for Mail for Mac OS X, then navigate to Mail on my old hd, it's faint and can't be selected.
    Suggestions of any kind would really be appreciated. (And from now on, I'll just live with my name being misspelled as Administrator!)
    Thanks a lot,

    Richard,
    Welcome to the Discussions.
    When trying to import a pre-Tiger mailbox created with Mail, use type "Other", instead of type OSX.
    However, if you can replace any copy of the Mail folder on your Tiger drive, and any com.apple.mail.plist in the Preferences folder of your Tiger drive with copies from your Panther drive, Mail will open to say it is ready to import Mailboxes, and will then convert all the mailboxes at once.
    However when finished, you will need to check for leftover files, that can become problematic, and to check to see if full conversion took place. See:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=413196
    and

  • How do I import my Outlook 2013 PST file into Office 365 and then have them permanently synced?

    I have Office 365. I have Outlook 2013 downloaded on my computer with all my emails and contacts, etc.
    I want to import the entire PST file with my emails, contacts etc. into Office 365 / Exchange Online (cloud?). Once that is done, I want to set it up so that my Desktop Outlook will always update and sync with my Office 365 when I am out of the office and
    use the Outlook mail App.
    PLEASE HELP!

    Hi,
    You can also use Outlook or Outlook Web App to import your existing PST file into your Office 365 account.
    First configure your Office 365 account into Outlook, then use Import/Export
    feature in Outlook client to import your PST file:

  • How to import PST file into Entourage 2004 ?

    Hello all,
    I wonder if somebody can help. I just recently threw my Windows PC out and replaced it by an iMac - I just love it !
    One thing still challenges me though. I got all the old contacts and emails in a PST file format, Outlook 2003.
    Can anybody tell me how I convert/import them into Entourage 2004 ?
    Thanks very much for your help in advance
    Lenochka

    The best way is through an exchange server. If you don't have access to one, then there are two more options from the site mentioned above (http://www.entourage.mvps.org/cross_platform/#pst):
    "Other options to convert your Outlook mail into the MBOX format.
    Use Mozilla Mail. See Dave Riches tutorial here
    Use Paul Berkowitz's Export-Import Scripts download here"

    I would be more inclined to blame Vista in general than the version of GW -
    I've used the Advansys product with GW8 with no problems. GW8 has been
    tested with Vista, but I have no idea if any of the conversion utilities
    have. Can you just do it from another PC that isn't Vista?

  • Syncronising mails from Mail to .mac-Mail

    Hi there

    I deleted all mails on .mac by mistake, but still have them on my mini. Is there a way to bring back to .mac?

    Hello,
    I was referring to how you would copy them from mail to .Mac if you had your e-mail program open and were connected to .Mac with your e-mail program.
    If you saying that you only have a .Mac account, and not a regular Mail account (like from your ISP), and the messages in your Mail program are just cached versions of those on .Mac, then this gets a lot more complicated.
    You could try opening your e-mail program and not allowing it to connect to .Mac. You might for example disconnect your ethernet cable to insure that.
    Then, create new mailbox folders and move your messages into those mailbox folders instead of your inbox.
    Make sure you create the new folders on your hard drive (or what Mail calls "On My Mac".
    Then, move those e-mail messages into those folders.
    Then, if all goes well, hopefully those messages will remain in your folders when you connect to .Mac again.
    If so, you can then drag those folders to your .Mac account, and they should show up in there.
    Definitely keep a backup of your folder until you get everything working.
    Keep in mind that this is all experimental.
    Hope this helps.
