Migration from Windows Live mail to Mac mail

Hello Friends,
Please try and help me out as need a solution desperatly.
At present, I am using Windows live mail and intend to move from Microsoft to Mac. I have got many emails on my server host which would be easy to migrate as per the normal procedure. But I have archived most of my emails. I have created few additional folders and moved the emails from the server inbox to these respective folders. But those has been saved on the hard drive of the computer and not on the server.
I have been using windows live mail for 2 yrs and have got a lot of emails in these archived folders and is very systematic. I tried speaking to Apple guys at their outlets but never got a comcrete answer for the migration where by these folders will remain as it is and wont get jumbled. One of their staff said, it is not possible as emails will get under one folder and wont be as what is intially but as a result I will lose all the hard work.
I am trying to give as much information so I can get a solution to it. I even tried to speak to the server host but they said I have to create individual folders and mose th foldres again which is a very tedious process.
Kindly get me a solution.
Regards,
Jaideep

Hello,
Many thanks for the reply.
I am using Windows Live mail on my Microsoft pc. And Mac air will be latest so i think it is Mac mail.
I am only more concerned of my saved folders and its email contenets. Someone said I need to transfer it back to my server and then if I migrate all of it will get transferred. Is it correct or some other solution.
Regards,
Jaideep Dighe

  • Reader opens and closes immediately by itself when try to open PDF from windows live mail or browser

    Hi,
    I'm having problems with acrobat xi since installing it on my windows 7 computer.
    Every time I try to open up a pdf file from windows live mail or a browser.. it opens and closes immediately.  The only way I can view it is if I save the file onto the computer, open up acrobat reader first then open up the file in there.
    How do I make it work properly again please?
    I've tried several things  so far like..
    -Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
    -Disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
    Please help me.  Thanks.

    How can I tell which one it is exactly?  I think it is Acrobat Reader.. 11.0.10...
    I can only open up a PDF if I save it to my computer and then open up the Acrobat program then open up a file using file > open.
    But if I try and view a pdf from an email attachment in Windows Live Mail.. or from a browser... it will open and close immediately.
    How do I fix this please?  thanks.

  • Syncing contacts from Windows Live Mail

    I have just bought a new ipad and am trying to sync my contacts from Windows Live Mail. I have found a previous post detailing what to do bit I get to a certain stage in the instructions and can't get any further. Here is the answer I found:
    If you are using Windows Live Mail (online version) with Windows 7, here's what I did.  Hope it helps someone.
    Before you do the following steps, in Windows Live Mail, export your contacts as a CSV file and save it where you can easily locate it.
    1.      Click on the little WINDOWS Ball in the lower left-hand corner of your screen (this is the same as clicking START).
    2.      Type WAB in the search box.  The first thing that comes up SHOULD BE a file called WAB.EXE. Double-click so it opens up—it may or may not be empty. This file is NOT the same file as the windows live file so don’t worry about overwriting anything.
    3.      Click IMPORT at the top of the screen.
    4.      Select CSV, then click IMPORT again.  It will ask you to find the file you want to import.  Find the backup you made. 
    5.      Once it’s done importing, you should see all your contacts. 
    6.      Plug in your Apple device—iphone/ipad.
    7.      iTunes will launch automatically.  Give it a minute to completely load etc. 
    8.      At the top of the screen you will see: SUMMARY INFO APPS MUSIC MOVIES TV SHOWS etc. etc.
    9.  Click on INFO
    10.  You will see ‘SYNC CONTACTS WITH’. Make sure there is a check in the box and that after ‘with’ you see WINDOWS CONTACTS. If you don’t see WINDOWS CONTACTS, click on the drop-down menu and select it.
    11.  Then click on SYNC at the bottom right-hand corner of your screen and let it run.
    12.  That’s it!
    14.  To sync another device repeat steps 6-12
    I got as far as number 9 where I clicked on INFO and it showed SYNC CONTACTS with some text, but not SYNC CONTACTS WITH and there were no boxes to check at all. Can anyone shed any light on what I should do next please?

    Hi,
    Actually I don't have any problems with mails and calendars as both of them work back and forth with Windows Live Mail and IPad.
    The problem is only with contacts.  Once a new contact is created in my IPad it does not go in my Windows Live contact box.
    Thanks

  • Migration from Windows Live to Office 2010-POP3 email accounts

    So I was attempting to migrate a few emails, specfically old email messages from Windows Live to Office 2010. I could not migrate using the obvious tool since I'm not using Microsoft exchange. I used windows live exporting abilities, but it saves to the
    desktop. Is there another way to export the data from Windows Live Mail to Office 2010. 

    You can export your Windows Live Mail to Outlook using manual methods which are properly described here
    http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/158/t/212929.aspx
    But if you want to export using third party tools then download an efficient eml to pst conversion tool from
    http://www.windowslivemailtopst.emltopstconversion.org which instantly migrate your Windows Live Mail to Outlook.

  • Move email files from windows live mail to office for mac outlook

    I would like to move all my Email data from MS Windows live mail to MS Office for Mac Outlook.  Can it b done??

    OK.
    Your provider supports IMAP and POP, so, easy way first.
    Go to System Preferences>Mail, Contacts, Calendars and enter the ntlworld account, SMTP for sending and IMAP for receiving (use 'other' as the account type), this will activate the account on the Mac and (depending on how set up on the PC) either sync all of the mail, or only the new mail. Post back and tell me which.

  • There is no option to import e-mail from Windows Live Mail, *.eml files.

    I have all the *.eml files exported to a folder and just need to install.
    What software addresses importing Windows Live Mail, *.eml files

    You can drag the eml files from their folder and drop them in a TB folder; for this purpose, create a subfolder of Local Folders as the destination.
    The eml files can also be imported using [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/addon/importexporttools/ ImportExportTools].

  • Cannot find 'HTTP... from Windows Live Mail

    Using both FireFox 8.0, then 9.0 as my default browser, I get the error "Windows cannot find 'http:...." when I click on a link in an email in Windows Live Mail. The error note remains, but after a few seconds, FireFox opens the desired link page.
    This doesn't happen when I set IE7 as the default browser. It simply works without the error note.

    What password do you use to log onto MyBT. The old one or the new one?
    https://home.bt.com/login/loginform?TYPE=33554433&REALMOID=06-f1aca0f0-9277-1028-a2aa-843bdb4e0000&G...
    If it is your old password there appears to be a glitch when changing email passwords, it is not changing the password in MyBT so it causes a problem when logging on via an email client.
    If you change the password of MyBT it does change the email password as well.
    (I may have gotten this the wrong way round because I haven't tried it. ie changing MyBT does not change email password and changing email password does change MyBT password.)

  • I have just updated to Firefox v 6.0.2 and can no-longer open web links from Windows Live Mail 2011 (Bld 15.4.3538).

    Shutting down programmes and rebooting computer did not help. Launching web links from Live Mail has never been a problem before. Error message reads " There was a problem sending the command to the program"

    Firefox 3.6.4 and 3.6.6 use a process called, "plugin-container.exe" which was using up most of my CPU when I opened up multiple tabs that contained Adobe Flash files, and caused Firefox to lock up.
    My solution was to use Firefox 3.5.10 which you can get from the Mozilla website at [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html]
    I am using Adobe Flash 10.1.53.64 without any problem in this version of Firefox. Check the release notes, I believe it contains all the latest security fixes in "Firefox 3.6.4".
    Hopefully, they will fix Firefox 3.6 in the next version (e.g. Firefox 3.6.7), until then you should probably use "Firefox 3.5.10".

  • No cover anymore after migration from Windows XP Itunes to Mac Itunes

    I've migrated from my poor old PC laptop to my beautifull new Mac Pro. It was very easy with the media (they were all in an external hard disk) and the playlists through an USB key but I cannot find my covers (about 300 albums). What can I do ? Thank for your help.

    Yes I transferred the artwork folder in the Itune folder such as it was in the windows configuration but I'm not sure I must keep this structure for the mac. Apparently no link can work between this former folder and the albums. As regard "advanced menu > get artwork" I think it's to recover some covers directly fron a database on the net - not from my own data.
