Outlook 2011 import from apple mail

I've follow the Microsoft official instruction to import email from Apple mail to Outlook 2011.
In Outlook menù, from File, choose import, then Information from another application then choose Apple Mail.
But Apple Mail option doesn't appear! only "Qualcom Eudora" or Application not in list....so its impossible to import the message.
What's appen???
thks for any help

I did a little testing and all I can come up with is the following:
In OSX Mail, select your message and click File, Save As.
Format is Raw Message Source.
Be sure to have a .eml extension at end of the filename.
Open Outlook and drag the message file onto your Inbox (or whatever folder in your Mail.)
Notes:
Outlook must have focus when you drag the message in.  IOW, click on Outlook to bring it to the front before dragging the message in.
You must Save As each message individually.  Selecting multiple message in OSX Mail, will combine all the messages into one file, which Outlook import as just one message.  (And import very badly.)
Of course, it's obviously gonna be a pain importing messages individually, but you asked.
BTW, just to make sure you're fully warned, getting your data out of Outlook later is nearly impossible.  Try the Export function in Outlook for Mac and you'll see what I mean.  (It's like Hotel California.  You can check out anytime you like but you can never leave.  )
I second that emotion

  • Migrate existing email from MS Outlook 2011 (mac) to Apple Mail?

    Is there an easy (no cost) way to migrate my old mail (including folders) from MS Office Outlook 2011 to mac Mail?
    Thanks...Scott

    There are several ways to do it, the way I first thought of is to use an IMAP account and simply set up the account on both and move mail to that account.
    An easy way to set up an IMAP account is to create a Gmail email address, then go into the mail settings in gmail and enable IMAP.
    Once you've set up IMAP on the Gmail account, you can set up up on both Outlook and Apple Mail, and simply drag the mail you want into folders on the Gmail account, and they'll pop up on Apple Mail under the Gmail account.
    You can then decide if you simply keep them on Gmail or if you delete them after moving them locally on Apple Mail.
    I also found http://marcushesse.com/2010/exporting-mail-from-outlook-2010-mac-importing-eml-f iles-into-apple-mail/  which details a way of converting the stuff folder by folder over to eml files that can be used in Apple Mail.
    I think the email converter application they link on there is very useful for your task.
    At the end of all this conversion and moving files around, you should seriously consider setting yourself up with an IMAP account with whatever provider you end up sticking with, since that means you simply set up your email address in Apple Mail, or on the iPad, or iPhone, or PC and it simply has everything once it downloads it fresh, no need for any more migrations of this sort.

  • Import Mail from Apple Mail to Entourage Failed

    HI all: Got frustrated with Apple Mail due to addressbook and Ical. Just don't like the format. So did file-import from apple mail- and nothing came over. How else should I be doing this?

    Ok this is filed under Thunderbird, so I will assume your references to Firefox are in error.
    You appear to have added your account as POP. Try adding it as IMAP.
    File menu (Alt+F) >new>existing mail account
    now delete the old pop mail account, once everything arrives from the server.
    Tools menu ALT+T) > account settings and use the account actions button at the bottom of the list.

    Create a IMAP account (GMAIL icloud etc.)

    Drag emails into a folder on the imap server and then go back to Outlook 2011 and drag the emails from the imap into your email. and your done all your emails

  • Please help, dead end How do you import to Apple mail from Outlook express?

    I have a client with an old Mac G3 tower running OS9 and Outlook Express 5.06. I have read all of Apples Mail help and searched for docs and the discussion board. It appears that since the Mac Pro Intel won't run classic I have to some sort of transfer via another app. I have actually found better info on doing this from a PC but no successful suggestions to do it Mac to Mac. I have moved the Microsoft User Data over, tried directly from Apple Mail, tried loading Mozilla and pulling it in there, no good. How do you do this successfully?

    I think I have figured this out, looks like I might be able to import to Entourage then to Mail, anyone tried this?

  • Can't import Outlook 2011 emails to Mac Mail

    Hi, 
    Recently I have shifted back to mac mail because of some personal reasons. Work is going great with mac mail, but the only thing I am worried about is the emails that are still in outlook 2011. Is there any wau to transfer all those emails from outlook 2011
    over to mac mail. As the emails are regarding work and are important to be used in future to keep records of our clients. I have tried the export function but somehow it does not seem to work properly. Is there ant other possible way to do this? 
    I am not that much of a technological guy so please be kind in your responses, I request to suggest some fast and reliable method. Thank you.

    You can use an intermediary IMAP server, or simply create corresponding folders in Finder and drag and drop the messages from within Outlook to that folder. Then you can import to Mail from those folders/files.
    Or you can simply look for third party tools for better and fast results, here is one recommended by apple store: Om to Mbox

  • Email sent from Apple Mail to Outlook, recipient gets 2 versions

    When I send an email from Apple Mail to my Outlook Express and open it in Outlook it shows two versions of the email. First is formatted the way I sent it (Rich Text) and then below that is the same message in Plain Text with an line (HR) between them.
    I don't see any settings in either Mail or Outlook to change this. Only time it doesn't happen is if I send it as Plain Text to begin with.
    (ps. read as Plain Text is not selected in Outlook)

    You are typically "the man" on such issues, but I believe Apple has said some place that their RTF is only a subset of HTML? I know it gets converted to HTML like encoding, but did not think it is full HTML?
    It's true that when composing in Mail you only have access to those parts of html that Apple has provided an interface for, so there are various html things you cannot do. But those things you can do, like choose the font, font size, font color, etc. are done with standard html codes, the Content-Type header of a "rich text" message says "text/html", and the message source starts out with the codes < html > < head > < body > like any other html message would.

    Try copying the whold SD card to your desktop by holding down the Option key and dragging the SD card icon about 2 inches away from the where the card sits on the desktop. This should trigger Mac OS to make a copy of the whole SD card onto your Macintosh's desktop. Once it finishes from there, eject the SD card. Reboot your Mac then open iMovie without launching any other programs whatsoever. Go to the File Menu Import Movies from File... And point it at the copy of the SD card and see if it crashes again.
