Migrating Accounts and Notes From Entourage To Mail

Now have Leopard and have started to migrate all my mail files to Mail 3.0. That seems pretty easy just use import.
Is there a way to automatically import account info or does this have to be done manually?
Is there a way to import my Entourage note files into the new Mail notes.
Tks

After you sync with Address Book, and you uncheck the Sync in Entourage, they will not be deleted from Address Book.
For email, open Apple Mail, File Menu, Import Mailboxes..., then choose Entourage.
Or you can drag each folder from Entourage onto your drive, which makes a ".mbox" file which is compatible with many different mail programs. You can import those into Apple Mail (or into Thunderbird, or into Outlook Express, etc.).
You can also use a Gmail account, using IMAP (not POP), and drag'n'drop the emails from Entourage into that, then connect to it from Apple Mail and have them back.
Killing off Entourage is harder. Assuming you don't want to uninstall Office, you'll at least need to go to System Prefs, Accounts, and delete the Login Item for the Microsoft Database. I'm not sure what other steps may be necessary.

  • HT201209 I have £15 on my itunes showing on my laptop. I have made purchases, and it has taken the money from bank account, and not from the £15, which still sits on my account with no deductions. Don't understand why. Can anyone help me please ?

    I have a £15 on my iTunes account, from a gift voucher. I have made purchases, but my account remains at £15, and the money instead has been deducted from bank account. Why is not taking the money from valide gift voucher.

    First, I presume you're buying for yourself, not gifts for others, correct? Gifts cannot be purchased using a credit balance. If you are buying for yourself, another user in the forums posted this as the reply from the iTunes Store when this issue was brought up. Perhaps it will help you. Regards.
    I'm sorry you weren't able to make a purchase using your store credit. To purchase items on the iTunes Store with your store credit, your account information in your user profile needs to be corrected. I'll walk you through this process to get you back up and running in no time. 
    1) Visit the My Apple ID website at:  http://appleid.apple.com 
    2) If the site is not displayed in your preferred language, click the Change Language link in the upper-right corner, type the name of your language in the field that appears, then click the Save button. 
    3) Click the "Manage your account" link. 
    4) Type your iTunes Store account name (which is your Apple ID) in the Apple ID field, type your password in the password field, then click the Sign In button. 
    5) Click "Addresses" in the column on the left. If you have multiple shipping addresses, remove any out-of-date or duplicate addresses by clicking Delete. Also, make sure the state or province field is filled out correctly for each address. To edit an address, click Edit. Edit all of your shipping addresses and make sure the appropriate state is selected in the State drop-down menus. 
    6) Now click "Phone Numbers" on the left. The area codes should be in the area code fields and the phone numbers should be in the phone number fields. If an area code is missing, or if it is in a phone number field, your account information may not save properly. 
    7) Make any other necessary corrections, then click the Save Changes button. 
    8) Click Log out in the upper-right corner.  When you make your next purchase on the iTunes Store, you will be asked to review your billing information. At this point, you can change your information or simply click Done at the bottom of the screen to proceed. Once you click Done, you should be able to purchase on the iTunes Store using your store credit. 

  • Importing emails, signatures and contacts from Entourage

    I've been trying to find a way to import emails, signatures and contacts from Entourage to mail. I want to change accounts so I can eventually use mobileme in the office I'm working at but don't want to have to go through the arduous process of having to copy everything manually into mail.
    Has anyone found a fool-proof way of doing this yet ?
    Thanks & cheers, Jan

    Just imported everything myself for Entourage X a few weeks ago.
    iCal will directly import Entourage's calendar.
    Address book can be done to ways. In Entourage, open Address book, under the file tab select export contacts. This will save a .txt file on the desktop which can be imported by mail. Another way is to create a folder on the desktop, then highlight and drag all Entourage contacts to the folder which can also be imported. Either way, if you have more than one email address per contact, you may have to cut and paste those manually.
    Mail will import email from Entourage directly. I had to import several times to get everything. In Mail under the File Tab, just click import mailboxes and select Entourage. Another window will open and you are able to pick which Entourage folders to import. All are selected initially.
    As far as signatures, you most likely will need to cut and paste those manually.

    Im trying to add an account to an iPad so that my messages send to my phone and not my brothersr e-mail that's already registered on the iPad. However when I enter my e-mail it's just saying "cannot be verified, e-mails already in  use??

    You may have more than one Apple ID that shares the same email address.
    Try one of the following to resolve the issue:
    This error message means that your email address is already associated with another Apple ID. It could be tied to GameCenter, iTunes Store, or another Apple ID. Try using your Apple ID for those services to log in to FaceTime on your device.
    If you wish to use a separate Apple ID for FaceTime, unlink the email address from any other Apple ID before trying to set it up as a separate Apple ID for FaceTime.
    If you would like to change your Apple ID to another email address, go to My Apple ID and follow the instructions in this article to change your Apple ID.

    Hello, HenryWang2103.
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    The Safari, Email and Notes applications are native to the iOS and is unable to be deleted.  Since this is the case, they are either in a folder on the iPhone, on another page or Restrictions are enabled.  You can also search for these Apps on the iPhone by touching the screen and sliding your finger down.  Here is some information regarding these features.  The information about folders is located in the user guide below.

  • Migrating from Entourage to Mail

    I want to move my E-Mail from Entourage to Mail. I'm using a new MacBook Pro with 10.6.1and wondered if there were any tips I need before I start the process.
    I'm intending to use the "File/Import Mailboxes" function in Mail
    Also - I have a lot of subfolders which will also need transferring to Mail and am a little scared of messing up the process and losing important messages.
    Any advice before I make the transfer will be gratefully received.
    Thanks

    I had nothing but problems with it.
    I got a roughly 15 GB mail database (roughly 100.000 messages) which I am trying to import from Entourage to Mail using 10.6.1. None of my folders with more than roughly 2500 - 3000 messages in them could have been taken over. None of them. When the import reaches somewhere more than 2000 messages in the actual folder, the import stops and just results all the rest of the folders left empty.

  • Migrate from entourage to mail keeping folders

    does anyone know if this is possible and how i would go about it? the user has about 100+ folders and 3GB of msgs, so manually is out of the question.
    i know i did this once before but cannot remember how i did it.
    thx!

    I had no problem importing my mail and mailboxes from EntourageX to Mail version 1 (Panther). All the mailboxes were there under Import along with my mail.
    I am here today (and have been for days) because Mail version 2 (Tiger) is a extraordinary problem and bringing the mail out from the Import folder even in Mail v1 was a problem.
    Whatever you do - BACK UP.
    Backing up EntourageX is a mess too, if I wrote the mail file to DVD it would not read nor would it copy. Has to be back up to a live drive.
    At this point, I would be very happy to get my mail OUT of Apple Mail version 2 and into Thunderbird. From my days of research I am finding that Apple Mail version 2 (Tiger) is just a complete mess. Abandoning the universal Mbox format (it still says Mbox but its really broken into emlx files for spotlight in version 2)
    EntourageX fails at around 2GB (or was it 4)- so you are right to get out of there, but after what I have been through- and still am going through because my mail is GONE and rebuild just loses more, and those support pages on apple.com are down and no one has been able to answer any of my questions posted here- I would say DONT move to Apple Mail version 2 Tiger.
    Good luck

  • TS4050 I am running Windows 8. Although my contacts and notes from my Ipod touch show up on icloud my calendar entries do not show up even though they do show up in my Google calendar and my windows phone calendar. Any suggestions not already covered?

    I am running Windows 8. Although my contacts and notes from my Ipod touch  show up on icloud my calendar entries do not show up even though they do show up in my Google calendar and my windows phone calendar. Any suggestions not already covered in trouble shooting articles?

    As I mentioned earlier, you have to decide which calendar you want to use.  You can either use Google or iCloud, but not both.
    If you want to use your iCloud calendar, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Calendar section) and set this to your iCloud calendar.  After doing so, all new events you add to your calendar will be added by default to your iCloud calendar, and as a result, will appear on icloud.com and your computer (if it is syncing calendars with your iCloud account).
    If, on the other hand, you want to use your Google calendar (as it sounds like you are doing with your iPod), simply add the same Google calendar to your phone and your computer.

  • Importing from Entourage to Mail Question

    Hi,
    I'd like to import from entourage to mail, however I'd like to select a cutoff date of the emails coming in. In other words, instead of 10 years of email, I just want to take the past two or three.
    Does anybody have any suggestions on how easily to achieve this end result?
    Thanks

    I haven't got a direct answer for you but I had similar experiences which may help you. I found the Mail import to be pretty ineffective and unable to cope with large mailboxes.
    I started with Entourage and actually moved to Thunderbird when earlier versions of Mail were not really very good. TBird imported Entourage emails fine - about three years of emails.
    With SL and Mail 4, I was looking for a way to import all my TBird emails - now 7 years with as the import into Mail was still flawed and also it had a bad habit of recovering EVERY email ever received, including all the spam. So I found "Eudora mailbox importer" which perfectly moved all my TBird mail straight into Mail with no fuss.
    So if you get stuck, its Entourage to TBird to Mail !

  • Switching from Entourage to Mail: use Entourage Groups?

    I'm attempting to switch from Entourage to Mail and Address Book (not least because of the attractions of smart folders, etc), but I can't figure out how or if I will be able to send occasional email mailshots to large groups of people.
    I run an occasional newsletter in email format. Because the list is very large, it wouldn't make sense to set up individual vCards for each individual email address on the list, and yet that seems to be the only way to email all the members of a group using Mail and Address Book.
    With Entourage, on the other hand (and I would dearly love to wave goodbye to it in all other respects) I could set up a Group exactly as I would set up an individual contact, then copy the entire list to it, and could even add occasional new email addresses whenever I liked or delete others as they opted to leave the group.
    Am I missing something in Mail / Address Book, or will I have to cut and paste into the To: box my entire long list each time I need to send a mailshot? (And doing that would involve using a word processor or text editor in order to manage the list, which is adding yet another programme to what should be a pretty simple task...)
    Many thanks for any advice anyone can offer.

    Yes. Importing your mail from Entourage does not affect the Entourage database.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)

  • HT4796 how do I keep the same user account and not make a new one when transferring music?

    How do I transfer files using the migration assistant and not create a new user profile? I am transferring from Win 7 to Mountain Lion and now the only way I see my music in Itunes is to flip to the new user account created. I am the only one using my mac and its a bit of a pain switching users to listen to music. Any thoughts?

    Drag the iTunes folder over manually instead of using the Migration Assistant, or drag the other account's home folder to the desktop, authenticate yourself, and move the music into your main account's iTunes library.

  • Migrate accounts & sharepoints ONLY from 10.4 - 10.5?

    Hey all,
    does anyone know a good method for migrating just accounts and sharepoints from 10.4 server to 10.5 server? Specifically, we want to change our domain name and server name, but we want to retain the accounts and sharepoints when we do the upgrade in software (of course, we're planning on doing a complete erase and re-install).
    Can anyone point me in the right direction?
    - Alex Mohr

    I have been using 4.5 HD on a unibody MBP running 10.5.6 since November. So far I've not had any problems at all, even after the latest QT upgrade. All I need to do was make a very minor change to allow it to run on a non-AGP equipped machine. A quick Google will help you with that. I will upgrade to FCS but not until FCS3 is out. I can wait as long as it takes.
    Yes, I know that this configuration will cause my computer to explode and my projects to develop scurvy, but after 3 months with no problems I'm just going to keep on living on the edge.
