Importing .emlx files back into mail....please help

Hi, I am running the most current version of Tiger and Mail.
A few months ago, I accidentally deleted an account on mail.
This deleted all my emails from the inbox having to do with that account.
The other day, I bought File Salvage and salvaged a bunch of .emlx files that were old emails having to do with that account I deleted.
I would double click on one, and it would open just like a window in mail.
So I tried to drag and drop them into the fold were my other .emlx files were, hoping that when I relaunched mail, they would appear in the inbox I already have. But they never did. I am wondering if there is some way I can import them into mail again.
Any help would be appreciated greatly.
Thanks in advance,
Eddy

After selecting Mail for OS X for the type of data to import from, the text below reads:
"You will not be asked for the location of a folder containing mailboxes created by another copy of Mail for OS X."
The "location" of a folder containing mailboxes is not within the Recover.mbox folder. This is the actual location of the Recover.mbox folder.
Where is the Recover.mbox folder located? If on the Desktop, you select the Desktop for the location and then OK.

    Have you tried changing the extension on the motion file? You can label it .mov and see if FCP recognizes it then.

  • Can't import mbox file back into Mail

    Hi,
    I archived my "sent messages" folder two months ago, and it became a mbox file of 5GB.
    Now I as trying to import it back to mail, but it doesn't work.
    I went to "Import Mailboxes", and selected "mbox files" in the Import window. Then I clicked "continue",
    and chose the "sent messages" mbox file (user library > Mail > Archive mail).
    Smaller mbox file appear in the next window, but this large one doesn't.
    Does anyone know if there is a way to get access to this data?
    I would be very grateful to get some hints...
    Thanks.

    If this was archived from Mac OS X Mail, then choose "Mail for Mac OS X", not "mbox files".

  • Getting .emix files back into Mail

    A disastrous experiment with Entourage 2008 ended up with my entire Exchange box being wiped from my server, losing two years of messages. However, as I'd previously used this account in Mail, I've managed to salvage the folders, which are full of .emix messages (from Library/Mail).
    However, I can't work out any way of getting these messages back into Mail. The messages are intact as I can open them individually, and Spotlight includes them in search results, but I really need to get them back into Mail.
    Any ideas?

    Since this is an Exchange account, I guess you’re talking about .imapmbox mailboxes, right?
    If Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > Keep copies of messages for offline viewing was set to All messages and their attachments (the default setting), then Mail 2.x maintains a local copy of server-stored mailboxes using the exact same format it uses for locally stored mailboxes, except the suffix of the mailbox folder in the filesystem is .imapmbox instead of .mbox.
    You cannot import .imapmbox mailboxes directly into Mail because when you do File > Import Mailboxes and choose Mail for Mac OS X as the data format, Mail looks for .mbox folders only, but if Keep copies of messages for offline viewing was set to All messages and their attachments throughout the lifetime of the mailboxes (or since before the last rebuild), you can easily overcome that limitation by just changing the suffix to .mbox.
    After having changed the suffix to .mbox, do File > Import Mailboxes, choose Mail for Mac OS X as the data format, and follow the instructions. Note that Mail wants you to select the folder that contains the mailboxes to be imported (i.e. the folder where the .mbox folders to be imported reside), not the .mbox folders themselves.

  • How to import modified files back into Muse

    Maybe this is an easy sync issue....hopefully.
    I've exported my html files from Muse (after publishing to Biz Catalyst) and want to modify the html, such as ad href's to divs in the slideshow, etc. How can I import these modified html files back into Muse so I can publish back to Business Catalyst?
    I realize it's an easy solution to host the exported files on another server, but I'd really like to stay within the Muse/Biz Catalyst environment with updated html's.
    thanks much!!

    There isn't a way at this time to import HTML files into Muse and expect it to load in Design mode for a subsequent re-publish. The only kind of editing that Muse supports today (outside of Muse) is through Business Catalyst's In-Browser editing feature but that is limited to editing only text (without any formatting or styles) and foreground images <http://www.adobekb.com/working-with-in-browser-editing_pt01.html>. Feel free to submit your feature request over at our Ideas section.
    Thanks,

  • Importing data file back into blank PDF - some data fields don't populate

    I have created a writable PDF in Adobe LiveCycle 8. Once the form is completed the person filling out the form submits by email. The email is successfully received and the data file is complete (opening it in a browser verifies this). However, when I use try to import the data back into the PDF file (by opening Adobe Pro | blank form | managage form data | import data - only some of the fields are populated. I need this data to repopulate the form so I can print it and I also need to export it to Excel for other purposes. What am I doing wrong?

    Check the binding on the fields that don't populate and see that it is set to something other than None.

  • How can I put my emix files back into mail.

    Hi
    I've trawled the forums and think I've tried all suggestions. My mail froze when collecting mail and on restart the messages were in the viewer window but when double clicked they came up with the message about them not been downloaded from the server. I then rebuilt the mailbox and all messages disappeared apart from one. The messages however, were in the correct folder as emix files, which can be read when double clicking on them. I've tried copying them into a new folder, I've tried putting the messages folder in a new folder xxxx.mbox and when I try to import it goes through the motions (quickly) and says it can be retrieved in import 5, which doesn't exist, and if I drag the xxxx.mbox folder into the mailboxes folder in my hom/librarymail it appears on the tree but doesn't show any contents, even when rebuilt. I have 10,000 messages in this mailbox. I have subsequently got a new MacBook Pro and even starting from scratch the problem remains - any help would be much appreciated. Thanks, Will

    Hi William.
    The problem is probably that the index is corrupt and you need to completely re-create it rather than rebuilding individual mailboxes. I have no idea what the situation really is now after having tinkered with the contents of ~/Library/Mail/, though, so the following procedure may or may not work.
    Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
    The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
    After having fixed all filesystem issues, if any, and making sure that there’s enough space available on the startup disk (a few GB, plus the space needed to make a backup copy of the Mail folder), try this:
    1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
    2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/. Make a backup copy of this folder, just in case something goes wrong -- e.g. by dragging it to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down.
    3. Locate Envelope Index and move it to the Trash. If you see an Envelope Index-journal file there, delete it as well.
    4. Open Mail. It will tell you that your mail needs to be “imported”. Click Continue and Mail will proceed to re-create Envelope Index -- Mail says it’s “importing”, but it just re-creates the index if the mailboxes are already in Mail 2.x format.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder.

  • Backup/restore and drag/drop .emlx back into mail......

    bit of a curly one,
    Okay, I backed up a user's folder full of emails onto disc, so I could delete it (As it's taking up heaps on the server... they're using imap)
    anyway...is there any way to drag/drop the .emlx files back into say a folder "on the mac" so that it can be visible on the hard disk in Mail?

    First of all, you should realize that you’ve been making backups of data stored locally on disk, not of the messages stored on the server. Hence, in general, those backups may or may not allow you to restore your mail depending on a number of things, such as the account settings and the format used by the mail client to cache messages locally (if any).
    If Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > Keep copies of messages for offline viewing is set to All messages and their attachments (the default setting), then Mail 2.x maintains a local copy of server-stored mailboxes using the exact same format it uses for locally stored mailboxes, except the suffix of the mailbox folder in the filesystem is .imapmbox instead of .mbox.
    You cannot import *.imapmbox mailboxes directly into Mail because when you do File > Import Mailboxes and choose Mail for Mac OS X as the data format, Mail looks for *.mbox folders only, but if Keep copies of messages for offline viewing was indeed set to All messages and their attachments when the backup of those mailboxes was made, you can easily overcome that limitation by just changing the suffix to .mbox:
    1. Copy the entire ~/Library/Mail/IMAP-username@mailserver account folder from the backup to the Desktop.
    2. Change the .imapmbox suffix of the folders within the account folder on the Desktop to .mbox.
    3. In Mail, do File > Import Mailboxes, choose Mail for Mac OS X as the data format, and follow the instructions to import the copy of the account folder that’s on the Desktop.

  • Help me get my mail into mail please!

    I recently had to do an "erase and install" to my computer. Before I did that, i THOUGHT that by archiving my "Microsoft User Data" which that included items such as my database and identities, that it would save all of my mail folders, saved mail, etc....was I wrong??
    I would like to get all of my old entourage mail into the mac mail program. All I have is that Microsoft User Data folder (no mail is currently in entourage since i had to erase my hard drive, so i cannot just "import" from entourage). Is there a way for me to do this?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much in advance!
    dayna =)

    Relace the copy of your "Microsoft User Data" folder and then restart Entourage, Entourage should then see the old mail. Make sure you back up the new Entourage "Microsoft User Data" folder so you don't loose that unless there is no info in it that you need. Oh yes, make sure you don't mix up the backed up folders. When this is done you can try 'File > Import mailboxes' to import the Entourage info into Mail.
    Hopefully this is helpful or solved your problem. Consider rewarding some points!

  • How can I import an ibook file back into iBook Author?

    I exported an ebook from iBook Author thinking it is the equivalent of saving the file.
    I did not save the file, I only exported it and than exited the program.
    My active file is vannished.
    I need to make some adjustments to the ebook, but can not bring it back up.
    Is there a way that I can re-import the iBook file back into iBook Author?
    When I open iBook Author and try to open the exported file the program does not recognise the ibook file...
    Thanks for your help!

    Check for previous versions of that book in iBA....even if not saved.
    You can dig into the .ibooks file by changing the suffix to zip, but you'll have to manually extract what you can from assets you find. Please only do this with your own books.

  • Move System Preferences Help file back into System Preferences folder?

    How do I move System Preferences Help file back into System Preferences folder.  I unintentionally moved it.  My Mac blocks putting it back.  Suggestions?  Thanks!

    Somehow I managed to delete my System Preferences shortly after upgrading, and was able to use the 10.4 one for a while until I applied the patch. Luckily, I already had Pacifist, and with your directions I was able to get close enough so that I could find the Applications folder within the ContentsofEssentialsSystemSoftwareGroup > ContentsofEssentials.pkg > Applications > SystemPreferences.app.
    For that, I owe you the deepest gratitude and a gigantic THANK YOU. My System Preferences is now fully reinstalled and working wonderfully.
    Pacifist might actually be worth purchasing.

  • Help - Can I Convert/import a PDF back into an InDesign doc?

    Long story short: This is a document I originally created and the original was lost. The client now wants to make changes and re print. I would like avoid having to build the entire doc from scratch. I have the original Hi-res PDF that I retrieved from the printer.
    Question:
    1) Is there any way to convert/import this doc back into an editable Indesign Document?

    Sorry Kids- was just having a bad day! To Kath: you are absolutely right -didn't even think about it, & checked it in MS Word with that word in wrong usage, just flew through! To Jongware: Sorry Bud, but plenty of help out there to solve that issue! To Scott: great link, had fun reading that one! Just got my second & third AAS degrees from local community college (Print & Graphic Design(updated to digital) at 53. And I was appalled at how many of our HS grads are not only receiving their diplomas but getting into college and cannot read at all! So I guess there will be much need for good proofreaders for the immediate future at least, Damn, must still be having that Bad Day relapse!! Have a great day all & sorry again for anyone I might have insulted, not my intention, if I were perfect, I wouldn't need to be here now would I? Les G
