Outlook Express 4.5 migration to new email application

The posting on MiscroSoft website states that with the Internet Explorer 5.0 (2005), they will no longer support the Outlook Express 4.5 for Macintosh that was bundled with it...
I'd like to keep the emails when I get my new iMac. Is there anyone who can assist in how I migrate from the current email application to the new one?

"End of file" means the mail database is corrupt. That being said, EntourAid might help. As per the developer, "EntourAid attempts to recover emails in any corrupted Microsoft Outlook Express/Entourage email database that is reported to be corrupted and irrecoverable. This has been tested on both 'normal' corruption situations as well as on databases corrupted by the '2 gigabyte limit' in Entourage Office v.X, with up to 90% recovery rate (including attachments)."

Importing pc outlook express contacts into mail on new mac

Hello,
I've been looking thru the support archives and can't find anything current on this issue (archived stuff is 2009). Is there any easy way to import your contact info from pc outlook express to mail 4.5 on a new macbook pro? I'm not sure which version the outlook express is, (it's my father-in-law's machine) he just made the switch to a mac. He is not very computer savy, hence the reason I am posting the question... I have looked at o2mac and was wondering if it can be done easily without purchasing an outside application... I have a brother-in-law who is working on the problem but he is soo pc oriented that he cannot find himself around the mac without thinking in pc-mode so I'm now trying to help (I'm AM a mac person...) but not outlook! He says that when he tries to import it comes in all gobbley-gooked (his words)....
Any help appreciated!

Outlook prompts creds after migration, unless new windows profile created

HI!
Outlook keeps prompting credentials after migration for some users. When we create new windows profile for this user, all going well. Autodiscover in browser also keeps prompting for password.
I checked credential manager (there are no passwords stored), also tried new outlook profile (no help).
Any ideas?

2010 SP2 migrated to 2010 SP3. We already tried changing authentications. The problem occurs for random users (not all users). Auth settings on autodiscover virtual directory: Anonymous, Windows, Basic. Auth on exchange (get-autodiscovervirtualdirectory):
Basic, NTLM, WindowsINtegrated.
Also i did not mention early - the problem obviously with autodiscover. I can't get autodiscover.xml using browser (keeps prompting for credentials). From another winows profile on the same computer with the same mailbox all going well. So I don't understand
where should I look to.

Outlook Express 6 wants to re-download old E-mail

Hello!.
I use Verizon DSL. I use Outlook Express 6 at home to download my incoming e-mail.
I do not delete the mail after it is downloaded. I keep a copy of my incoming e-mail in my Verizon Webmail Inbox so that I can access it on the Web if I need to see it when I am away from home. Until a few days ago, my Outlook Express would download only the new email messages. This is what I did for years. However, after I changed my Outgoing Port Number to 587, Outlook Express now wants to download all the mail that is in the Webmail Inbox, not just the new mail.
I cannot determine what is wrong, or if changing the outgoing port to 587 is the cause. Not sure if I accidentally changed my settings or not.
My account settings are:
GENERAL tab
name
e-mail address
SERVERS
incoming mail is POP3
incoming (POP3): incoming.verizon.net
outgoing (smtp): outgoing.verizon.net
My server requires authentication - is checked - Advanced: Use same settings as incoming mail server is checked.
CONNECTION
the box stating "always connect to this account using___ is not checked.
ADVANCED:
Server Port Numbers: Outgoing (smtp) 587. Incoming (pop3) 110
Delivery: Leave copy of messages on server is checked. Remove from server after___ days - is not checked; Remove from server when deleted from "Deleted Items" - not checked.
I have my work e-mail account configured the same way (except for the name, email address) BUT I don't have the same problem.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Microsoft recently sent out an update that incorrectly set the system date/time to 2008. Check to make sure your system date and time are correct, as this may be the cause of the issue. (Your client checks for new mail, and is seeing everything since 2008 as new.)

Copying/saving email folders in Outlook Express to somewhere else

When I upgraded my G4 from Classic to OS X, I couldn't figure out how to move the email I'd saved in folders in Outlook Express. Besides several years of emails from my kids, there are other folders I'd like to keep. I'm now giving the computer to a friend and want to have those folders of email. How do I do that? I am keeping a powerbook that still has Classic on it. I have a new Intel iMac. Or ideally I could burn them to a CD. I can't figure out how to get them out of Outlook Express to move them anywhere at this point.
Thanks!

Jane, hello.
I think you can simply drag and drop them out to a folder you have made (or allocated) on your desktop.
ie. In Outlook Express, select one email (it can be any email) as it is listed in your Inbox, then go to the menu bar and choose Edit > Select All (command key + A) ... the files will become highlighted (blue on mine) ... then drag the files out to the empty folder you made on your desktop. The folder will highlight (darken) when it is ready to accept the files. Of course, the same process will work for your Outbox, or Drafts etc.
This website seems to focus on the functionality of Outlook Express, maybe there is some useful advice here:
http://www.macoptions.com/oe/newuser2.htm
You can compact the database and what not, but I would do all that when you have saved your files to your desktop.
Hey, I am not as computer savvy as some of the other members –maybe someone will have a better idea– but what I outlined is what works for me.

Error 0x80007114 "Outlook Express could not be started" when trying to run Migration Assitant.

Trying to run Migration Assistant on a PC (Windows XP). Error message "Outlook Express could not be started. The application was unable to initialize the store directory. Your computer may be out of memory or your disk is full. Contact Microsoft support for further assistance. (0x80007114)" Then the Migration Assistant shows a box stating that Outlook Express must be stopped before running the assistant.
I have enough memory. The disk is not full. Outlook Express runs just fine on my PC. And it was not runing at the time.
Apple Support (two tries) and my Apple store have essentially said this is a Microsoft problem. Of course, Microsoft says it is an Apple program failing so it is an Apple problem.
MS info about the error indicates that it prevents OE from starting. Than is not my situation at all. The fix is draconian (as many are) and could risk my OE so I have not gone there - yet. Hopefully there is another way.
Does anyone have any experience on how to (easily) solve this dilemma. I am also trying on the MS side.
This is my first MAC. I was convinced to go Apple by several folks who touted the excellent support. It was purchased in July 2012 and has been a boat anchor since. Support??
Thanks for any info you can provide.

So I had this as well.
I went to the file tab and went to export. From there I picked 720p and it worked. It may be different for you depending on the resolution of the video. hopefully it works for you too!

How do I set up my iPad so that I can recieve the emails from my Outlook Express account

How do I set up my iPad so that I can recieve the emails from my Outlook Express account

Your iPad doesn't receive email from Outlook Express (or any other email client). It receives email from your email provider. To set up your email account on your iPad go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap Add Account and add your email provider's account settings with your username and password. iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, AOL and Hotmail email settings are automatically entered by tapping the appropriate button. Others must be manually entered by tapping Other. (Exchange accounts will also require you to enter your email provider's settings.)

Sending email from Outlook Express via Parallels

Outlook Express works just fine for receiving emails, but I can't get it to send an email. Is there something special I should look for. I use earthlink.net.

This is most likely due to a misconfigured SMTP sever setting. Most ISP's force you to authenticate to the SMTP server, if your using a different account for receiving then you are for sending this may be it. I've also seen where an Anti-Virus software is blocking port 25, SMTP, out to prevent the spread of worms. This is most likely not a problem with Parallels or the Mac but mis configured email client.

HT4796 Error 0x80007114 Outlook Express cannot be started.

Window Migration Assistant fails immediately with the above error. OE runs fine on the PC.

Here is what I am trying to do:
Windows Migration brings the following information from your Windows PC (Windows XP SP3 or greater) to your Mac:
Email: IMAP and POP accounts from Outlook, Outlook Express, Windows Mail and Windows Live email accounts are transferred to Mail. Email metadata such as read, replied, and flagged are transferred from Outlook, Outlook Express and Windows Mail to Mail in OS X.
Contacts: Outlook and Outlook Express contacts, and Windows Contacts from the Contact home directory are transferred to Address Book.
Calendars: Outlook calendars are transferred to iCal
iTunes library, including music, photos, videos and apps and games for iOS devices, except rentals
Home directory folders and content, including Music, Pictures, Desktop, Documents, and Downloads
Browser bookmarks and homepage from Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari are transferred to Safari
User settings including localization, locale, and any customized desktop picture
The problem is obviously somewhere on the PC side since the Windows Migration Program fails on the PC but I am starting with questions here because surely someone in the Apple community has seen this problem and has a solution.
This is the first thing I have tried on my new Mac (first time Mac user) and it failed. Not a good start Apple!!
The full error on the PC side is "Outlook Express could not be started. Unable to initalize store directory. Out of memory or disk full. (0x80007114)" SInce OE runs fine on the PC, I have no idea what this means or how to get around it.
Any ideas/help would be appreciated. I really would hate to have to go to MS with this question...

Cannot read my E-mails in Outlook Express anymore as they now appear as Firefox webpage attachments, how do I rectify this?

I use outlook express to download my E mails from gmail and used to be able to read the content of the email in Outlook Express. The content of my emails has now disappeared and been replaced by two attachments, one Firefox HTML which has the content of the email and a text file which also has the a content. How can I return to the original format of Outlook express?
Many thanks
Stuart

Does this only affect new mail you download, or does it affect older messages as well?
If it only affects new messages, is it possible that you've made a change that indirectly affects emails, such as new security software (spam filters or virus filters that intercept and check mail as it's received)?
If it affects older messages as well, there might be a problem with Outlook Express (how it is decoding HTML messages). In that case, if you haven't tried restarting Windows, you might try that first.

Hi Billee.
The problem you are seeing is due to the session downloading the emails failing to complete correctly.
Usually when a session ends, the server receives an "end" marker, and OE (or indeed other mail client programs) recognise that no more exist. The mail client then makes a note of the last email received, so that if more emails are received, and OE checks the server - OE only requests the new emails.
(It's a little more complex than that of course).
If this session fails to complete, the end signal is not received and OE can't determine an end point, so effectively doesn't set one - hence you get them all again.
It could be that a local anti-virus/firewall is interferring with the download, perhaps causing a delay - but not necessarily causing an error message to be displayed. There could be a dodgy email on the server that is failing to download, causing a timeout and eventual stop.
I don't know how easy it is, but maybe you can login to webmail and move all the Inbox emails into a new folder (make one up). It may be possible to move 1000 emails at a time into the Inbox from this new folder, then attempt a fetch from OE after each 1000. (You could practice with just a few at a time to see if this works).
Have a look here for the address book stuff :-

Outlook express and blackberry

Hi - I am new to blackberry and I am sure you have all figured this out but I need some help. I use outlook for my calendar but only that. I use outlook express for my email and addresses. I currently have my outlook calendar, memo, tasks, etc all synced into my blackberry. I also have my outlook express address book synced into my blackberry. I am trying to syn my emails from outlook express into blackberry - can you do that? I have a yahoo and earthlink email currently coming into blackberry separately but would like them to come into outlook express on my blackberry.
Any advice would be appreciated. Also - when I delete an email in outlook express it does not delete the email on my blackberry. I know because the two are not communicating this won't happen but I would like to figure that out as well.

Hi
In order to have a fully-functioning BB, you will need a Data Plan from your carrier. Amongst other benefits, this will mean you have a BIS (BB Internet Service) and can link up to 10 email accounts which you can also link to Outlook and sync between the BB and Outlook.

OUTLOOK EXPRESS AND ORACLE FORMS

WITH THIS CODE,
win_api_shell.winexec('C:\PROGRAM FILES\MICROSOFT OFFICE\OFFICE\OUTLOOK.EXE')
I CAN OPEN OUTLOOK EXPRESS FROM AN ORACLE FORM.
I WANT TO KNOW HOW I CAN MODIFY THIS CODE SO THE PROGRAM GOES INTO OUTLOOK EXPRESS AND OPENS A BLANK NEW MAIL MESSAGE FROM AN ORACLE FORM. ALSO IF THE ABOVE PROBLEM CAN BE TAKEN CARE OF CAN THE 'TO' LINE BE PREPOULATED WITH AN EMAIL ADDRESS FROM AN ORACLE FORM.

This would be nice to know

I need to use Outlook Express to apply for jobs and I either don't have it but when I try to send an e-mail on Outlook Express, it won't go through and gives me an error report.....I really need to be able to use Outlook Express to apply for jobs. Help!

When I try to apply for job and when I try to e-mail my resume' and Outlook Express comes up to reply to on, I put in my information, etc but when I hit send, it doesn't go through and says? POP and then error report and doesn't go through.

I can't provide a solution with or without the error message, but without an error message, you are making everyone guess at what you see. I have no idea what you see, and I think someone who might be able to help you solve your problem would need to know what that message says. Is "Outlook Express" (Windows Live Mail) your default email processor, if not what is?
