Is there an easy way to import entourage email groups into address book?

I don't want to import the contacts individually, but as group. Any assistance would be appreciated. Entourage 2004 and address book is 4.1

First go to the avid site and download the avid codecs for the mac. Not sure if they'll have compatible codecs for such an old version, but worth a shot. then do a test export from the avid. It would probably be smart to convert the clips using compressor to match your fcp sequence settings. Not sure if the timecode would come across. You could note the timecode of the first frame on the avid and then modify the clip once imported into fcp. Test your workflow before doing a lot of work.
You might also check if automatic duck's got something that would work.

  • Is there an easy way to import an addressbook file into addressbook server?

    Hi,
    I have a fairly complex addressbook with around 4000 contacts and many groups.
    What is the best way to import this in address book server?
    If I drag the users and then the groups I end up with many duplicates.
    Tks very much

    Hello, I am also working with a fairly complex addressbook with around 4000 contacts and many groups; I'm migrating from (old) Outlook 2003 and have made some progress but am not finished.  I exported my contacts to (very old) Excel 2000 and cleaned up the info there.  Then I opened the spreadsheet with Open Office and saved it in CSV format.  Then I imported/mapped that CSV file into Apple contacts successfully; however, I have to fix some long entries in the Notes field that were cut off, and I still have to figure out how to do Groups (was Categories in Outlook).  Due to limitations of Outlook 2003, fixing the cut-off Notes field entries will be manual/tedious; however, I'm hoping to figure out, or hear of, a smart way to do Groups.  Regards, -Michael

  • Is there an easy way to make a long chapter into a book with many chapters?

    I have a long, book length text file (50 chapters). It's one file in one ID chapter. I would like to make it 50 files in 50 ID chapters in one book (indb). Can that be easily done?
    Thanks

    You can "move the pages" which make one chapter in your ID file in the new documents and then save the new file, similarly you can do it for the 50 chapters and then compile this 50 chapters together in a book.

  • Is there an easy way to import those misfortunate photos back into iphoto

    I moved my iphoto library to my external drive so that both my laptop and imac can use the synced photo library.
    ... but now my imac iphoto says I can not open my iphoto library, because is from a newer version of iphoto. And the application then closes.
    I figured out my newer laptop has a newer version of iphoto on it.
    Imac iphoto version is 6.0.6
    Laptop iphoto version s 7.1.5
    I Downloaded iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This created a new library but says a lot of my pictures are lost. I can search and find them on my external drive and reimport, but there are a lot of them! Any suggestions?
    I'd rather use the 6.0.6 on my imac than pay for an upgrade.
    I just won't use my laptop's iphoto.
    BUT, how can I get my 6.0.6 working again with all of my pictures in tact? Or is there an easy way to import those misfortunate photos back into iphoto painlessly?
    Any other solutions??
    Will Snow Leopard have the newest iPhoto included?
    Thank you!

    If you want to revert to iPhoto 6 then you have two choices:
    1. Restore from your back up
    or
    2. Create a new v6 Library and start over.
    To create and populate a new *iPhoto 6* library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'.
    Go into the Old iPhoto Library (Right Click on the Library Icon and choose ‘Show Package Contents) and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Roll Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the old iPhoto Library.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.
    “Snow Leopard” is an OS Upgrade. While we have no idea what will be included with it, on past experience, no, it will not include a new version of iPhoto.

    thanks for the reply.  guess i'll have to do that.  apple, not really happy with what you've done with this latest update.  have not been able to enjoy my music in my car since the update.  most of us dont mind changes that progress timely, but this was much more than just a progression.  this was a complete change.  and not a good one, at all.  thanks to the two people that replied.  appreciate it.

  • How do I import a word doc into address book

    I have word doc with address labels, I want to import that into address book, how would I do that? If word can't do that I can also open it in Pages. Thank you.

    The way to import datas in AddressBook is not what this forum is dedicated to.
    Please go to
    MacOS X 10.5 > Mail and AddressBook
    or
    MacOS X 10.4 > Mail and AddressBook
    A quick search in AddressBook Help with the wonderful keyword "Import" teach us that AddressBook is able to import from:
    vCard ;
    format LDIF ;
    TAB delimited file ;
    CSV (comma-separated values)file.
    So, it appears that the first thing to do would be to save your Word document as a TAB delimited file or as a CSV one.

  • Can someone help me import perfect csv spreadsheet into address book?

    I have spent almost two years perfecting my excel spreadsheet with columns exactly matching the fields in address book, and saved as a CSV. When I try to import up comes a two-column list, fine up until column 8, where it suddenly starts saying "do not import" and "ignore" and "in use". I fiddle for hours but don't know what it means. Experiments lead to fields in the wrong places. I have read a whole correspondence about this, but solutions too complex for me.

    Anything here help?

  • Import .txt (from Excel) into Address book not happening

    I am attempting to import a .txt file (exported from an Excel file) containing 5000 contacts with email and phone details. In the Import dialogue I can map the columns to the Address Book properties. When I press OK the button stays blue (highlighted) for a few seconds but no import occurs. Not even the card being previewed.
    What am I missing here? (Bit urgent too)

    I had the same problem. I saved as tab-delimited in excel, closed it but upon import, address book would hang (spinning wheel or no response). So, I reopened the .txt file in Numbers instead, got rid of any strange lines, saved again as .txt. Then, I imported it into Address book and it was fine.
    To see whether it had to do with Numbers or Excel, I reopened the .txt file in Excel also, did the editing out of strange lines/cells again, and imported into address book again without problems.
    Seems like a really dumb hack, but it worked for me. I had 62 entries (address book always stalled at 5).

  • Is there an easier way? Import directly into a playlist?

    I am in the middle of ripping all of my 5000+ cd's into iTunes as Apple Lossless files. I'm creating a music server with a Mac Mini, a few 1TB firewire hard drives & a Fubar II dac. I have about 500 done so far and it is becoming a handful. I insist on using playlists because I listen to lots of weird music with a lot of the artists using aliases so I want to be able to group them all together.
    This is what I've been doing. I create a few hundred blank playlists. I import my cd making any changes first using command & I. I then scroll down to where all the untitled playlists are. I then have to scroll all the way to where the songs that were imported are listed alphabetically.I choose them using shift & the mouse dragging them to an untitled playlist. I do it this way because if I found by titling the playlist while it was importing and placing it where it sits alphabetically I was taking to much time trying to drag those tracks to the correct playlist. I was also occasionally dropping them in the wrong playlist altogether.
    Is there really no way to automatically create a playlist using the artist and album info that you set up or what is automatically generated with cddb? Or can I really not create what I want my playlist to be titled and import the cd directly into it? I can't seem to solve this by using a smart playlist either. Any recommendations?

    Here's what I've been doing for years. Its against the grain but so what.
    I have 10,000 ripped files. From this I selected 2265 mp3 files(call these my Favorites) which always get "added to library" whenever I re-do my computer(s) which is very often(my hobby).
    I use the Finder to organize my Music first not itunes. So I make folders and call them for example Metal, Jazz, etc ...within these folders become Artist names for example Beatles, Who , etc....I delete anything that is ahead of the name of the song(such as track number, its embedded anyway), Why? so it fits better in the smallish 'window' of music car player, etc...So what do I have ? A folder with 2265 mp3 files without track numbers and only my favorite mp3 files.
    When I re-do the computer I just set up itunes always unchecking in "advanced preferences" for it to organize and make copies. I do that not itunes. I add to the library. Wait for itunes to do its thing. Set the view options. The only ones I do are, Artist, Album, bitrate, size, Grouping, time & equalizer.
    Once the add is done I do that not itunes automatically, I focus on the Grouping. Examples are Metal, Folk, Smooth Jazz, etc I set these up years ago using itunes. The mp3 hold these id tags except equalizer. I select the Grouping column to arrange the sort, takes 1 second. Then do a select all by grouping and an command + i to set each Grouping equalizer all in one shot. When Equalizer function is completed for all the files then I make playlists. My Playlist is the same name as Grouping, for example Metal Grouping gets Metal playlist. That way I can find the entire Group of Metal and drag them to the playlist. All this sounds complicated, but how to explain? The entire process when I re-do my Mac takes 5 to 10 minutes. The hard work is setting up your MP3 files in the Finder but once done you only need to back up those files. iTunes is out of it. Lastly make sure you id3 tag your files when done in the itunes library using view and setting options. Make sure you drag these tagged files back to your original drive where you back them up. So they retain their tags you gve them.
    Hope this helps

  • Importing text file databases into address book

    I have a large csv formatted (all that easily allowed by my exporting database) that I want to import into addressbook. By the instructions this should work and so I diligently configured the "Text file import" screen to align the fields as they should be imported - and the sample entries shown in that window look and are configured exactly as they should be. However, when I click on the OK button in the "Text file import" window, I could not tell if it was importing one item or the thousands. But when I look at the address book it indicates that it imported all thousands of contacts. THE PROBLEM is that in the address book (which was previously essentially empty) the only items listed under "Names" is "No Name" (a huge number of them) and each one has NO other fields filled in. So it appears that nothing is importing despite that the Text file import screen shows everything set up correctly. Thoughts/help?

    My problem is the same as Roderick. Text File Import reads my file and shows me the data that it will import. I dilligently assign all of the appropriate columns and press "OK"...Nothing happens. Any ideas?

  • Is there an easier way to import???

    I get music files from other sources besides Itunes. Although the files are in the same directory as all my other music...I have to IMPORT them into Itunes to get it to see them. Is there anyway to get Itunes to look at an entire directory and make sure EVERYTHING in that directory is seen by Itunes?? There are a lot of songs...I don't want to always have to import individually...and I also don;t want to end up with two of everything in Itunes. Any suggestions??

    If you are letting iTunes manage library then don't put the files into library location. Let iTunes do it when you add the files to the library.
    With iTunes set to manage library and to copy files to library when adding files, I find it is best to not put the files into library. I have a temp folder set up for when iTUnes will not rip a CD. I then use audiograbber to rip the CD to the temp folder then add the contents of the temp folder to iTunes then delete the contents of the temp folder.

  • Is there an easy way to convert a long string into an array?

    I can convert a long string into a 1-d array by parsing and using build array, but I would like to know if there is a function to make this easier.
    For example:
    from/   aaaaaaaabbbbbbbbccccccccdddddddd         (string of ascii)
    to/       an array that is 1-d with each element having eight characters
              aaaaaaaa
              bbbbbbbb
              cccccccc
              dddddddd
    Thank you.

    Try something like this:

  • Is there an easier way to load songs and albums into itunes library?

    I have MP3 files on my computer, is it possible to load songs to my library from the file location itself, rather than opening itunes, then adding it to the library by directing itunes to the folder?

    Easier? No idea how File -> Add folder to library could be considered in any way "more difficult" than any of the following but...
    Double click the songs.
    Drag them to the Automatically add to iTunes folder inside the iTunes media folder.
    Drag the top level folder or the entire drive to the iTunes icon.
    If iTunes is open, drag the drive, top level folder, lower level folder or file(s) to the library icon in iTunes.
