My Mac Pro has died can I get my Mail onto my Macbook Air?

My Macbook Pro has died and before I send it for repair I would like to get all my Mails off it onto my Macbook Air. I have both the syatem disc and a Time Machine backup.
Is there a utility to do this or anything I need to look out for or make invisible files visible (and if so how on Mavericks).
I have been very much against putting much on iCloud, I am beginning to have second thoughts now...

If your email Provider uses POP, that setup is geared toward ONE computer fetching the emails off the Mail Server, reading them, and storing them locally (on your Mac). The Server deletes them after a while (but you can specify how long before it does that delete).
If your email Provider uses IMAP, that is geared toward one OR MORE computers reading emails, but the Master Copy continues to be stored on the Server. This makes it easy to use Multiple devices, and  "Copying" is completey optional. But your Server mailbox can get really BIG unless you prune un-needed old emails and especially attachments.
iCloud, AOL, and Yahoo are some of the popular services that can be configured to use IMAP.
iCloud (possibly others as well) is set to transfer your messages encrypted. I am not sure whether they are stored encrypted.

  • How can I get Microsoft office onto my Macbook Air?

    I need to use Microsoft office instead of Pages and Keynote because they are not compatible with my teacher's files. However my macbook air does not have the cd/dvd slot so how could I get Microsoft office onto my macbook? Help is appreciated! I really need it for my classes!!!!

    You have a couple of options.
    1) Buy a external DVD drive that connects by USB port. Any brand will work on your Mac. It doesn't have to have the Apple name on it for it to work. Most cost around $30.
    2) If you have the office DVD take it to a Mac that has a DVD drive and copy the DVD contents to a USB thumb drive then install from that thumb drive.
    3) Fine the DMG download of the office version you have.
    Note that only Office 2008 and the newest 2011 will work on a Mac running Lion or Mt Lion. The older 2004 version won't install on newer Mac computers.

  • My mac pro has died, how can I see my emails on my macbook

    My Mac Pro has died. I intend to get it repaired, obviously, but I need to see my emails from the many years of emails archived on its undamaged hard drive. I have removed the hard drive and connected it to my macbook using a USB carrier. I can find myself under the users, but the library file where the mail folder is kept remains hidden, so I can't copy it across.
    What can I do to get my emails useable again immediately?
    I posted this before but on a Macbook discussion and got no useful reply.
    It surely is possible to do this isn't it?

    In Finder select Go, then hold the option key.
    You will now see Library.  Select it and navigate to Mail. 
    emails are in V2 Folder
    See eric's suggestion to "check ’Show Library Folder’"

    To keep it seperate from the Mail already on this Mac, I would set up another user account (->System Preferences->Users & Accounts), and then log into the new account.  Quit Mail, Delete ~/Library/Mail in the new account and copy Mail from the other Mac.
    Delete these files to force a re-index:
    Open Mail

    How is your external drive formatted? Use Disk Utility to check the volume format. If it is NTFS, you will need to reformat the HDD as exFAT in order to retain universal compatibility (RW to it on both Mac and Windows).

  • I took a 15 minute video clip on my phone and now I can't import it into iphoto.  I've been able to import clips to iphoto in the past.  How do I fix this?  How can I get it imported onto my MacBook and ultimately iMovie?

    Maybe try one of the WiFi transfer Apps?  There are several to choose from. I use Photosynch quite often to send photos and videos between my computer(s), my iPhone, and iPad.

    How can I get HDMI out from my macbook air(2011)?

    It's rather simple. Buy a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter. And then a HDMI cable long enough to link your computer the distance between both devices.

  • How can I install my CS5 onto my MacBook Air?

    How can I install my CS5 onto my MacBook Air? I have my serial number, but I can't find anywhere to download the program on the Adobe site. The physical CDs are useless w/MacBook Air.
    Thanks!
    Emily

    The physical disks are OK with MacBook Air if you buy a cheap external DVD drive and connect via USB. That's how I install DVD software on my MacBook Air.
    That said, you can download the software from http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs5-direct-download-links.html
    Follow the Very Important Instructions on that page first otherwise the links won't work.

  • Old ibook has died; Can I get my thesis off hard-drive and on to macbook?

    Howdy,
    My trusty old ibook has finally died (which is understandable; it is some six years old and has been around the world with me, and has served me well)... however, i didn't have the foresight to get some very important files (my thesis among them) backed up elsewhere...
    When I attempt to turn on the ibook, the screen stays black, i hear one or two chirps, and then nothing... if i put my ear close, i can hear the extremely soft sound of something spinning (the harddrive, i assume).
    I have attempted to access the ibook harddrive by connecting it to my new macbook via firewire and starting up the ibook while pressing "T", but to no avail; it does not appear on the macbook as a disk, or anything at all.
    Is there anything else I can try to access the important data on my ibook, and transfer files onto my macbook? Thank you so much for any help and advice... it will be much appreciated!
    love,
    dewfall

    Dewfall:
    Ronda's suggestion to try Disk Warrior is a good idea. Actually there are three excellent directory maintenance and repair utilities (including Disk Warrior): Tech Tool Pro, Disk Warrior and DriveGenius
    These all do a great job of repairing directories and have revived many a seemingly dead HDD. TechTool Pro and DriveGenius do a number of other things, and even they you purchase one of these and it does not work, it is a good tool to have in your toolkit. I own both TechTool Pro and Disk Warrior and use one or the other at least monthly.
    However, your main concern at the moment is to rescue your data, and if the drive is viable at all, placing it in an enclosure and connecting to another mac will help. The directions linked in my earlier post are very explicit and helpful. The enclosure linked there is the best price I have seen anywhere, and it does have the more reliable Oxford 911+ chipset. If you decide to remove the HDD here are few tips you may find helpful:
    • Print out the ifixit directions as well as the screw guide ahead of time.
    • Be sure you have the right tools. You don't want to damage the screw heads or you may never get them out. And the Torx 8 screw driver is critical.
    • I use small medicine cups one for the screws in each step. I nest them so that the last ones out and the first to go back in are on top. You can use an ice cube tray, egg carton, dixie cups etc. (Some users report cutting up the screw guide and placing the applicable section in each container.)
    • Be very careful pulling out leads. Hold the lead as close to the plug as possible and wiggle (the plug ) to loosen its grip. Don’t hold the wires and pull as that can damage the cable, or worse, in some instances pull the wires out of the plug. Use needle nose pliers if you can access the plug, or nudge the plug with a small instrument to help loosen its grip.
    • Use force gently in removing parts. Separating upper and lower case takes some doing. Use a plastic tool (spudge) so as not to leave marks.
    • Refer to the screw guide when reassembling computer. Putting longer screws in the wrong place can perforate the circuit board.
    Please do post back should you have further questions or comments.
    Cheers

  • Looking to get a Mac Pro Refurb, How can I get the Airport card too?

    I can't find an airport card available anywhere for the Mac Pro. The refurbs do not look like they come with one. I can't find it from apple or anyone else.
    What's the deal, and what can be done?
    Thanks a lot,
    Mark

    You can take it into an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) or search on-line for places which offer the card.
    One site is Fastmac.com.

  • Mac Pro has died - it powers on but fans roar, screen stays black.

    I had just woken my Mac Pro from sleeping overnight. It's running 10.4.8.
    I open the boot hard disk in column view. I click the Applications folder to expand it into the next column.
    The desktop disappears to be replaced by an all over blue raster. After a minute, that little grey rotating sun "wait" symbol you normally only see during start up, appears in the centre of the screen. I have no menubar or cursor.
    I have been staring at this situation for five minutes now. I have never seen a Mac behave like this before.
    I suppose the only option is to hold the power button in until the thing shuts down.
    I shut it down with the power button. Powering up again, the fans roar, the screen remains dark, and that's the way it stays. No boot.
    The only thing changed recently was the installation, yesterday, of the latest EFI Firmware Update v1.1.
    I feel that this update has broken the computer. What are my options now?

    Here's a copy of the relevent part of the log. I can't deduce what went wrong.

    I have a Mac Pro, running the most recent 10.5.8 software.  I'd like to use Facetime, and was assured by Apple's ads that the Mac App Store and Facetime would be included with the most recent software updates.  The Facetime App is supposed to be in the bridge, after purchase.  But, I can't get my Itunes to let me buy the App....it only seems to know I have an Ipod and Ipad.  Does anyone know how I can get hooked up using Mac Apps, and ultimately Facetime? 

    Maybe MacBook Pros are somehow different?

  • Can't get iCloud mail on my MacBook Pro. I used to, but not now.

    I have been traveling, and using all sorts of servers to get my mail through the mail program on my MacBook Pro (Blue stamp icon). But now I am home, and the problem that started while over the road is continuing.
    Under iCloud, the mail icon is checked. Under accounts, the only place blank is the IMAP Path Prefix. Port is 143, and SSL is checked. Authentication is Apple Token.  Checked are also "include when automatically checking for new messages" and "compact mailboxes automatically"
    Any help to get my mail up and running again?
    Thanks in advance.

    You're going to have to give us more info than "I can't get net flix to work."
    What have you done to try to get it to work?
    Have you installed Silverlight?
    Have you activated you Mac with NetFlix?
    How are you accessing NetFlix? (Browser, Boxee....)
    Exactly what is happening?

  • Can I get OSX Mavericks on my MacBook Air Original (Early 2008)

    Hi, I'm new to this so I'm sorry if this is in the wrong section.
    I have a Early 2008 MacBook Air which I still find perfect for my needs, it's light, quick and I can't warrant buying another MacBook.
    I recently tried to update my software to OSX Mavericks but it comes up with an error saying I can't download it on my computer?
    Has anyone got any ideas of how I could get it on my MacBook Air as I don't want to buy a new MacBook just to have OSX Mavericks when I'm perfectly happy with my current hardware.
    Thank you in advance.
    Aaron.

    Can't, and it wouldn't work if you could.
