Moving saved .eml files into Outlook

I have thousands of saved .eml files, to move into Outlook 2010. However - when I drag and drop them into the folders on Outlook 2010 - every file has the "date received" as today's date ( in past scenarios where I've done this - it automatically shows the
original email date).
i.e. - every file moved today - shows October 9th, 2011 as the date received - even though the email may have been from August 2009 for example.
Any thoughts on how to move the eml files into Outlook 2010 - with the original receive dates being displayed.
Thanks for your help.

Actually - found this info in this forum. Thanks very very much to Diane Poremsky - a lifesaver !
( Essentially - eml files from Windows Mail - need to be converted to .pst in Outlook - then imported into Outlook)
Her info :
Outlook doesn't use EML files. From Windows Mail, use File, Export. Choose Exchange Server (it exports to Outlook). You
will need to be using 32 bit Outlook to do this.

How do I import Outlook Express message files into Outlook 2013 without using LiveMail

I bought a new Windows 7 computer and have copied the Outlook Express .dbx files from the old XP computer onto the new one. Outlook 2013 's import facility does not have a .dbx option. I do not want to use Windows Live for anything. How do
I import my Outlook Express mail files into Outlook 2013 ?

Hi,
It isn't only to Outlook 2013, other versions of Outlook cannot access the .dbx files directly.
In the situation, Windows Live Mail is needed to transfer the mail data to Outlook.

Problem saving .ai file into a pdf

Hi, I've been saving .ai files into .pdf's forever without any problems but now I can't and I can't figure it out. I am working in CS4 with a CS4 file. Here is the error I am getting. Maybe its just been too long of a day.
This is an Adobe® Illustrator® File that was saved without PDF Content. To Place or open this le in other applications, it should be re-saved from
Adobe Illustrator with the "Create PDF Compatible File" option turned on. Thisoption is in the Illustrator Native Format Options dialog box, which appears when saving an Adobe Illustrator le using the Save As command.
I can't find the 'This option is in the Illustrator Native Format Options dialog box, which appears when saving an Adobe Illustrator le using the
Save As command.'
Help!
thanks

When you save as a native .ai file you should get a option dialog box to select options. Here is what the dialog looks like on the Mac OS.
The first check box under Options is what I'm guessing you want to check.

How do I import an .eml file into Mail

I have a .eml file, which was orginally an email message in Mail, which I saved onto my desktop, "saved as" a raw message source out of Mail a while ago. Now I want to import it back into my Mail program but it won't accept it. Does anyone know how I can get the file back into Mail?
null

If it's saved as Raw Source, it's not a .eml file anymore. Unless Apple changed them again in 10.5.x, Mail saves messages as .emlx files.
So, you can download this tool, emlx to mbox Converter to convert individual messages or whole groups to mbox files and import those into Mail (you need to choose Other when the dialog window asks "Import data from").
If the Mail file format really did change in 10.5.x to .eml, here's a similar tool to convert multiple eml files to mbox format: eml2mbox. This is a Ruby script, not an application.

Importing eml files into Mail

Hi,
I have thousands of emails that I need to import into Mail (v 2.0.7) for archival purposes. We want to start using Mail as the default e-mail client and all of our current e-mail messages are in "eml" format which can be read by Entrouage. We need to have access to these old e-mails for refrence, etc.
I have tried going through the Mail import option with no luck. It appears to only want to import mbox files. I understand that Mail uses mbox files which-in turn-contain emlx files. This is so spotlight can search them.
So my question is how do I convert the eml files to emlx files?
And once they are emlx files how do I get them into Mail?
Thanks!
Dual 2.7 G5 Mac OS X (10.4.2)

I go under file/import mailboxes.
Then I am given the options of:
Microsoft Entourage
Outlook Express
Claris Emailer
Netscape/Mozilla
Eudora
Mail for Mac OS X
Other
I select "other" and then click continue. I then navigate to the desktop and find the folder that has the .eml files in it, and click "choose."
I then get a dialog box saying "Error, No valid mbox files were found." I click "OK" and am left with a dialog with a blank list of items to import. This is where I am stuck.
Now I've downloaded "emlx to mbox converter" but the files I have are .eml not .emlx
I have searched the web in vain for how to convert .eml to .emlx. Simply changing the suffix on a file does not do it. I've tried that and then used the emlx to mbox converter and ran it through the Mail import process—no go.
So where I am now is a folder full of .eml files that I need to convert to .emlx files. Once I have those I can run the emlx to mbox converter.
Thanks for any guidance you can give.

Importing vcf files into Outlook issue

I have exported some PALM contacts as .vcf files and now I am trying to import them into Outlook. In PALM, I have the business number listed as Main so Outlook doesn't import the number into the business field.
How do I configure Outlook so that it recognizes this as the business number?
Thanks.
Post relates to: Palm IIIx

I suspect you will need to edit the files, because Outlook's import function does not let you map custom fields when you choose .vcf import. (If the following is too much of a pain, consider exporting in a tabular format such as comma-separated or tab-separated. You can open that file in Excel or a text editor to remove the records you do not want to import into Outlook.)
Can you open one of the .vcf files in Notepad or Wordpad and confirm that the "Main" number is on a line that starts with the following:
TEL;PREF:
If so, then you can use a VBScript to change that to:
TEL;WORK:
so that Outlook will interpret it as a Business number.
I have posted the script file at the following address:
http://jeffersonscher.com/res/MainToBusiness_vbs.txt
The one-time setup is as follows: After inspecting the file to confirm that it doesn't do anything dangerous, you will need to save it to your hard drive with a .vbs extension. Once it is saved in a convenient location, right-click it and create a shortcut. Then move that shortcut into your Send To folder:
c:\documents and settings\username\SendTo
Setup is done. You now can edit the Palm .vcf files by right-clicking, choosing Send To, then the name of your SendTo shortcut. The edited file will appear in the same folder as your .vcf file, with "_edited" added into the original name.
Hope this helps.

Can not import Outlook 2007 .CSV or .PST files into Outlook 2013 on Win 8.1 64 bit

I have a new computer (Sony VAIO Pro 11 Ultrabook) with a brand new install of Win 8.1 - 64 bit and MS Office 2013 Professional Plus. Everything works fine EXCEPT I can not import my contacts or calendar from Outlook 2007 Win 7 - 32 bit into the
.msn folders in each case. I can open .pst files in Outlook 2013 but they open in a local file and when I copy and paste them into the Exchange ActiveSync .msn contact and calendar files so that they will sync with Outlook.com Outlook 2013 crashes.
It can't even be reopened unless the wireless is turned off, and then you have to create a new data file as a default and then delete the old account and re-establish it. I have tried using the import functions as well with both
.CSV and .PST files that were exported from Outlook 2007 and an error message stating that this is not supported comes up. I have also tried to turn on sync with my iPhone to see if the files will sync from the phone through Outlook.com and nothing happens
there either - no sync on the web and nothing at the PC. Email works fine after adding the account again etc.
None of the procedures on the forums work (open PST file in the local folder then copy/paste, drag/drop, or move the files) so please don't respond with those links. All result in crash. Does anyone at MS know what's up with their latest
and greatest SW?
Thank you for your assistance.

Import the calendar and contacts in Outlook.com. For contacts, export from Outlook as csv and import into Outlook by choosing the Other option (https://people.live.com/import/other?biciid=ImportCatalog)
You'll need to save the calendar as an ics file to import it. Select the calendar folder, the File, Save as an save as an ics.

Drag and drop file into Outlook from AIR application

I am hoping to see if this would be possible with the Adobe AIR API. We currently have a desktop AIR application that clients install in order to facilitate certain operations triggered via a web application (such as opening files directly from the web).
One of the actions we are requested to support is the ability to drag and drop files from our web application directly into Outlook and have the file added as an attachment. I saw the documentation at Adobe Flash Platform * Dropping file promises and was wondering if this might be a possibility, or if there was some other method of performing this.
We are trying to get around the fact that users now have to download a document to their desktop before being able to attach in Outlook.
Thanks for any assistance.

You just aren't calling the right NativeDragManager functions. See http://help.adobe.com/en_US/as3/dev/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118666ade46-7d83.html

How to import .iaf files into Outlook 2011 for mac?

I exported emails from Outlook Express (PC) to .iaf files years ago and now need to access them on a mac. I have downloaded Office for mac 2011 but can't work out how to import them into Outlook 2011.
Can it be done? Any suggestions would be hugely helpful.
Thanks.

Hi,
We can import .iaf files in Outlook 2010 using the following method:
Start Outlook 2010.
On the File menu, click Import and Export.
Click the Advanced tab, and then click Export.
Click Import Internet Mail Account Settings, and then click
Next.
Follow the Internet Connection Wizard to complete the import process.
But, I don't know if we can do this in Outlook for Mac 2011. Since this forum is for general questions and feedback related to Outlook for Windows, it's better to post Mac related issue to the forum for Mac:

How to import OLM file into Outlook 2013?

Last week, I switched to Windows 8 PC. It works fine but annoying with email application. Previous email backup file of Outlook 2011 (OLM) file was not supported by Outlook 2013 email application.
Can anyone help to fix this one issue?

Hi Smithazus,
You face failure result due to bad practice of email migration. Before importing any email file in to new email client, please make sure few things as follows:
Similar email file format
Awareness with import process
Safe environment for data safety
Outlook 2013 uses PST file which is different from OLM files. In this context, you are advised to convert OLM files into PST file (Outlook 2013 supported file). As any manual method of such conversion is not available, you can try automated software which is developed by third party vendors.

Importing Archive File into Outlook 2013

We got a couple of new PCs for some users and one of them had an Archive folder in Outlook 2010. I still have the archive.pst file from the old PC and I'm trying to import it into Outlook 2013 but it's not working. It seems pretty straight forward but
after I choose the archive.pst file, it doesn't actually add anything. Am I missing a step?

Hi,
Please do the following steps to copy your archive.pst file to Outlook 2013 and open it:
1. Open Outlook 2010 in your old PC.
2. Click File > Open > Open Outlook Date File.
3. Copy the location of the Archive file from the opening windows(example: C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\Outlook Files).
4. Close Outlook 2010, and paste the copied location in Windows Explorer and Enter it.
5. Copy the Archive file. (To double check the file is copied completely, we can paste it in the local old machine and open it to have a test.)
6. Paste the copied Archive file in new PC.
7. Open Outlook 2013 in new PC.
8. Click File > Open&Export > Open Outlook Data File, expand the location of your pasted Archive file and open it.
Then check whether there are any messages in the opened archive folder.

Importing a pst file into Outlook for Mac

As soon as I start importing a pst file (from Outlook 2003) into Outlook for Mac 2011 I receive the following message in a pop-up window: "Microsoft Outlook has encountered a problem and needs to close."
Can anyone advise what I should do next. This is the only hassle I've had in migrating from MS to Mac.
Thank you!

There is a Office for Mac Product Forums I'd recommend posting there because they have more experience with Microsoft products than most do on this forum.

Saving .pdf file into .jpeg - not displaying text boxes

Look at your other thread.

When I drag .ics files into Outlook for Mac 2011, only the all-day events show up. It won't show part-day events.

I'm attempting to copy events from the Calendar app on my MacBook pro to the Outlook 2011 calendar. When I drop and drag the .ics files to Outlook, it accepts the information, but only shows all day events. I've tried changing events in Calendar to all day, then create the .ics file then drop and drag to Outlook, and even that doesn't work. Is anyone else having that problem? Has anyone found a solution for this?

Is Macintosh HD2 an external or internal HD? If it is external be sure in Finder > Preferences > General External disks is checked. Similarly in Findeer > Preferences > Sidebar be sure External disks is checked. If it is a second internal HD do you see it in Disk Utlitiy or System Report?
