Importing pst files into entourage

I am using Entourage to interface with our Microsoft exchange server and its working fine.
However I have all my old Outlook 2004 emails stored as pst files which i used to access offline via Outlook before i bought a Mac
Is there any way i can import these "old" emails into Entourage to give me the same functionality?

PST to Entourage conversion is one of those disgraceful "gaps" that demonstrates Microsofts unwillingness to engage with customers.
There is no built-in mechanism. There are, however, some work-around methods:
1. Export Data from Outlook to Mozilla Mail (or ThunderBird). Then import into Entourage:
http://www.riches.com.au/articles/export-outlook-entourage.htm
2. Do the same, but use Outlook Express as the conduit: http://www.oreillynet.com/cs/user/view/cs_msg/9928
3. Buy a third-party solution: http://www.littlemachines.com/ Make sure you check for a refunds policy in case it does not work!
4. Microsofts solution: Convert the PST to Outlook 2001 (Mac Classic) format. Then use a PST Import Tool to get the data into Entourage. Requires you to have a PPC Mac running Classic..... (http://blog.entourage.mvps.org/2007/08/importingfrom_outlook_forwin.html).

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"

Importing .pst files into mail without a PC

Hello to all those lovely Mac users,
I've got an Outlook .pst file on CD. How can I import mail messages
b without having access to a PC???
The only OS X email client I'm aware of that supports .pst files is entourage 2004 + pst importer for entourage. I, however, only have Office X which is not supported by pst importer. Nor is Office 2004 Test drive.
Thunderbird for OS X is a dead end as well.
Please help me!

You should probably take a look at one of the following options:
• ol2mbox (free): http://sourceforge.net/projects/ol2mbox
• O2M ($10): http://www.littlemachines.com/

Importing .pst files into Logic

I have downloaded ES2 presets that are mostly .pst files. I was wondering how do I get them into Logic and more specifically the ES2 menu? When I click on them I get the 'ol "There is no default application to open the specified document..." I also tried dragging files into ES2 library and drop down menu. What's next?

Hi
Logic presets and Channel Strips can 'live' in 2 places:
Either:
Library:Application Support:Logic:Plug-In Settings
Library:Application Support:Logic:Channel Strip Settings
Or
<User>:Library:Application Support:Logic:Plug-In Settings
<User>:Library:Application Support:Logic:Channel Strip Settings
Note that there are sub-folders inside each!.

How can I import .pst files into ES2?

I downloaded a set of patches for ES2 and only see the option to "load" them for a single use. How do I import them so I can pull them up through the interface menu? They are in .PST file format.
I tried searching and the file structure didn't match how Mavericks does it with Logic Pro X.

You might want to look at this one too. Very easy to use and it doesn't require the Apple MPEG-2 playback component.

Import PST files for multiple users at the same time?

While importing PST files into archive mailboxes, the Exchange 2010 mailbox server went to 100% CPU and memory usage and I could not stop the imports because the EMS stopped responding. We had to restart the whole server to get back to normal.
Not sure if importing PSTs was the cause of it it was a coincidence. We have done imports the same way before without this issue.
How many PST imports can be done at the same time and how do we queue up multiple users and have the mailbox imports have unique names for each user? I noticed they are always called MailboxImport and MailboxImport1 and then it starts over as MailboxImport
again for additional users. So, if more than one user's PSTs are being imported at the same time, we will have multiple identically named imports running.
We would like multiple users' PST imports to queue up and start automatically when the previous users' imports complete.

Please try like this. Rename folder name same as alias. i.e. \\server\share\<alias>. below are examples.
"\\server\share\jsmith"
"\\server\share\tjones"
"\\server\share\rsmith"
"\\server\share\bspears"
"\\server\share\mmouse"
And run below command to take PST from the corresponding
foreach ($i in (Get-Mailbox)) { New-MailboxImportRequest -Mailbox $i -FilePath "\\Server\share\$($i.Alias)\$($i.Alias).pst" -baditemlimit 50 -acceptlargedataloss ;while ((Get-MailboxImportRequest -mailbox $i | ? {$_.Status -eq "Queued" -or $_.Status -eq "InProgress"})) { sleep 180 } }
If a folder missing with the alias you will see an error similar to this.I think this will work for you. You just keep only the required PST folders to import in the "\\Server\share" folder.
"Unable to open PST file '\\server\share\mmouse\mmouse.pst'.
Error details: Could
not find a part of the path '\\server\share\mmouse\mmouse.pst'.
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (0:Int32) [New-MailboxImportRequest], RemotePermanentException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : 27802833,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.RecipientTasks.NewMailboxImportRequest"

PST Capture error when trying to import .PST files

I am currently migrating mailboxes from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013 on prem. I have installed PST Capture 2.0 and 64-bit Outlook 2013 on a Windows 2008 R2 machine and have installed the PST Capture 2.0 agent on a workstation that has some .pst files
on it. PST Capture finds all the .pst files on the workstation, but when I use PST Capture to try to import PST files into a mailbox on Exchange 2013, I get the error "Import error: Error opening mailbox [email protected]".
I created a userID with a mailbox to run PST Capture. Based on the instructions at
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh781035%28v=exchg.141%29.aspx I have made that user a member of the groups that are assigned the Public Folder Management role, the Mailbox Import Export role and the Organizational Management role. The
user is also a local admin on the machine running the PST Capture console. While the error sounds like a permissions issue, these are the only permissions I could find documented for PST Capture. I am starting PST Capture with "Run as administrator"
Any ideas why this isn't working? Are there any other permissions that the PST Capture user needs? Is there anything else I need to do?
Thank you very much for your help.

Generally PST capture tool allows you to search for PST files & import these PST files
to the mailboxes but as your account is not getting connected, so you need to check settings of your PST Capture tool :
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh781032(v=exchg.141).aspx
If this solution does not work out for you, then I would advise you to use any professional
tool for exchange migration like CodeTwo , Stellar. From my personal experience, I would recommend you to go for Stellar Mailbox Extractor for Exchange Server as it migrated my mailboxes to another Exchange Server in quick time.

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:

Dear Team, Can we secure "sent msg" that the receiver cannot edit while forwarding/replying? Is possible to import .PST file(S) into thunderbird?

Dear Team,
Can we secure “sent msg” that the receiver cannot edit while forwarding/replying?
Is possible to import .PST file(S) into thunderbird? If yes, any size limit?
Can we convert thunderbird data file in .PST?

I don't think you can prevent email body text from being copied and edited.
You'd probably need to created a protected Word or PDF document, and send it as an attachment.
This is still some sort of guessing because it's still not clear to me what exactly your scenario is.
Whatever text you send in an email, regardless of whether in the body or as an attachment, the recipient will always be able to use that and distribute it further, e.g. by making a screenshot. And images can be 'photoshoped' as well.
If you want the recipient to be able to detect whether a message or an attachment has been altered on transit, you'd need to sign it.

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?

Time to upgrade to GW8!

Opening a .pst file in Entourage 2008

I've just bought an iMac. need help with my data files.
I've made a .pst file of all my emails/contacts etc. that were on Microsoft Outlook 2003. Now for the life of me I can't get it to open in Entourage or any other program on the iMac. I need a quick and painless(buying this machine's already broken my bank, no further expenditure on software please) way to import my data into Entourage. Does anyone know of a way that doesn't involve buying more software?

I was hoping not to have to buy it. How silly Microsoft is. Two of their own softwares doing the same thing don't talk and I need to buy a third party software to get them to talk. This ***** big time.

Importing PST file using Import-Mailbox Command Crashes Powershell

I am attempting to import a .pst file into a mailbox via the Import-Mailbox powershell command. The command starts and imports the deleted items and creates the folder structure in the Inbox then crashes powershell. I am running Outlook 2007 SP2 on a Windows 2003 Std SP2 server w/Exchange 2007 SP1 Update Rollup 8 management tools. I have tried everything i can think of. This happens on multiple machines with similar packages installed. No anti-virus software is installed. It happens on both pst files i am testing with and no errors are logged in the event logs either on the exchange mailbox server or the server i am using to do the import.

Have you tried to do this from the actual Exchange 2007 server? I assume you are trying to import the pst to an Exchagne 2007 email account to Exchange 2007 correct?
Have you tried to perform the import on a Windows XP machine using the 32bit EMC/EMS rather then using Windows 2003 server?
I honestly recall in the back of my head a problem with Exchange 2007 and Outlook CDOs or something like that. I could be wrong but I remember something from a year ago.....
Seriously though, try it from a Windows XP machine running the Exchange Managerment Tools and see what happens rather then a W2K3 Server.
SF - MCITP:EMA, MCTS
Yea I double check the link i posted as well I never tried from a 2003 server either, I've always done it from an XP machine, but again we know its works because you got it to work with a newly export PST, so I think its more to do with the PST file itself, hopefully you dont have a bunch of them, if so let the users re-import them =)

How to convert Outlook PST files to Entourage MBOX

I am migrating over to mac after my windows system has been corrupted.
Luckily I had back-up of all my mails in a storage device. Outlook stored them as .pst files.
What I need to do now is take those .pst files and convert them to .mbox files for Entourage 2008.
I have gone through some steps reading online but the were of no use.
Please suggest some helpful solutions as i don't want to waste time blindly searching.
Thank you

An easy (and free) way to transfer email from Outlook (Windows) to Mail (Mac) is to use an IMAP account (e.g. Gmail) as an intermediary between the two. It's simple and reliable but can be a bit slow for large amounts of email. Expect over an hour per Gigabyte.
Enable IMAP on your email account.
In Windows, open Outlook and add your IMAP account.
Copy the folders (don't drag and drop them) from your PST file into your IMAP account. Drag and drop will move (not copy) your folders and you may lose mail if the communication is interrupted during the move.
On the Mac, open Mail and add your IMAP account.
If you want your mail stored on your Mac, you can copy it from your IMAP account to mailboxes created by selecting "On My Mac" as the location in the new mailbox dialog inside the Mail application.
Other alternative
You can also use the software approach to solve your problem.
Various softwares/applications/third party tools are available online.
One I am aware of is Pst Converter pro.
Hope this helps
thank you

How to Import XML file into SAP B1

Dear All,
I have a scenario like,
I am receiving a XML file from a 3rd party application for the daily Creation,Update of Item Master,BP Master, Marketing Documents. I want to import this file into SAP B1 through its approp objects. I understand DTW has limitation in its file types (Semicolo,Tab,Comma,ODBC). How do i do this ? Please guide me.
Thanks,
Thanga Raj K

Hy folks,
I´m frim Brasil and I've been studying the tool EFM (Eletronic File Manager) to learn more about it!
There I saw that we can extract to XML "any" infomation from the database we want, mainly through the GEP.
However, as I've seen, this Add-On can not import any XML file into SBO, unless for the BFP wich can be imported in conjunction with the BTHF Add-on.
So I ask: how is it possible to import XML data into SBO database? Is it possible to be done through the EFM? or it´s really necessary to write a code specifically to do that?
Besides, I know that de B1iSN fit to this necessity... but when I tried to use it, by the custom "object" for BP, for example, there are some data wich the mapping conteined in this custom "process" that can not be imported... I tried to understand how to map those other fields not imported by the custom but this has been dificult to me as I am a implementation consultant focused in administrative process not on development...
Could you please help me with this subject!
Thanks a lot,
Denis
