Retrieving Email From iMac to Macbook Pro

I have an iMac in one location.  I checked my email via Entourage, didn't open any, thinking it would be on my iPhone.  It wasn't.  So what I want to do is look at the email on Entourage from Macbook Pro which is in another location.  The iMac is off.  Isn't Mobile Me, which I have, able to "look" into another Mac in another location? Can I do that, if the iMac is shut down, and I'm not using Mac Mail?  Any help most appreciative.

Hi Peter,
If you don't get an answer here, or want better odds, why not post in the MobileMe forum?

    Do you have your system backed up to Time Machine? If so, you can open your user Library and copy your Mail folder from Time Machine to your Desktop on your new machine; then copy THAT folder to your new machine's user Library.
    To get to your user Library, open Finder and Go and press the Option key. Library will show up. Click on it to get into your user Library. Now go into Time Machine and you should see your user Library for Time Machine. Restore the Mail folder to your Desktop.

    Tried how? Using what? Step-by-step details and the results you get along way should elicit a cogent response.

  • HT3231 Can i migrate keynotes from iMac to Macbook Pro?

    Can I migrate Keynotes from iMac to Macbook Pro?

    Do you mean the program itself? If so then if it was bought from the Mac App Store just logon to the MAS with the same Apple ID you used when you bought it and redownload and install on the new Mac.
    If it was bought on DVD then get that DVD out and install in on the new Mac then run Software Update to bring it up to its most current version.
    If you mean the Keynotes you created then just copy them over your LAN from one Mac to the other.

  • Data Migration from iMac to MacBook Pro Issues

    Hello!
    I purchased a MacBook Pro and immediately began the data transfer through the Migration Assistant. Twelve hours later, it is at a screen saying "canceling migration", which it has been stuck on for five hours. I shut down my MacBook Pro and the iMac, and attempted to start the process over again. It appears that the data in fact did transfer, so I skipped the step asking me to transfer my data. Now I am at the screen to create my account, and it will not let me choose my full name or account name (due to that account information already being transfered over). That is the only account I would like to use, not any new account. I am unsure how to get around this step, any advice?
    Thanks!

    I just bought a MacBook Pro and am trying to use MA to migrate stuff from my iMac (Intel, OSX 10.4.11) to my MacBook Pro (Intel, OSX 10.6.3).
    Problem is, every time I try ("from" iMac "to" MacBook Pro), my iMac IDs my MacBook Pro and asks for the passcode, I give it, it then asks for the passcode again, I give it again, then it churns away with the message that it's "looking for other computers". On and on and on and gets stuck in this mode.
    I'm using ethernet between the two. Tried wireless also. Same issue. Downloaded the Migration & DVD/CD Sharing Update onto the iMac; it's already on the MacBook Pro. Same problem persists.
    Any suggestions? (among the ten zillion firewire cables I have, none fits the MacBook Pro, so haven't tried firewire yet).
    Thanks.

  • When I try to migrate from imac to macbook pro my user account says this user needs attention before migrating. My e-mail does not migrate in the process. this never happened before i updated to Maverick

    When I try to migrate from imac to macbook pro my user account says "this user needs attention before migrating". My e-mail does not migrate in the process. This never happened before I updated to Maverick. I have repaired user permissions but this not make any difference

    Just a Follow-up - the migration went fine. The migration did not import Little Snitch, Flip4Mac and DivX, stating they were incompatible.  It also reported that Intego Back up Assistant has improper security setting (which I have not yet investigated).
    I am encountering small problems.  Safari would not open embedded pdf documents and instead showed a black screen.  This was fixed with instructions found at http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/display-pdf-browser-acrobat-xi.html and it now works fine.
    Importing 17 years of old mail from Eudora to Apple Mail was time consuming. mostly because of the pre-migration preening i did, but using Eudora file cleaner before the migrtaion helped a lot.
    I amy find some more glitches, but so far everything seems to be working.

  • Interrupting migration assistant from imac to macbook pro?

    i am currently using migration assistant to transfer information from my imac to a recently purchased macbook pro. unfortunately i didn't investigate enough before starting the process and i didn't expect it will take me 5 hours to finish. my question is: can i interrupt the process without damaging the computers or files? if so, how?

    thanks Kappy for your quick reply. my biggest dilemma is that is about 1:33am, and i am contemplating to stay awake until early morning. still 4h:53min to go for the transfer tonbe completed. another related question: when i turned on my macbook pro was not prompted to install the software that came with it. instead i started with setup assistant that led me to migration information. i even didn't set up a new account or email in my new macbook pro. do you think once the migration is over i'll be prompted to install the software? by the way, my imac is relatively new (purchased in march this year)------- any thoughts? do you think i was not prompted to install the software because the imac software is update?

  • How to transfer photos from Imac to Macbook Pro using firewire?

    What is the best way to transfer photos from my Imac to Macbook Pro using firewire?

    Put one of the computers in Target Disk mode by holding down the T key while your computer is starting. By doing this, the hard drive of the computer you put in Target Disk will appear as an external drive in the other computer, so just open a Finder window and choose the other computer's hard drive in the sidebar.
    Then, just go to the folder where your pictures are and copy them to your computer or to the Mac in Target Disk mode, depending on the computer you put in Target Disk

  • Dragging from iMac to Macbook Pro

    I'm trying to copy some files between my iMac and Macbook Pro using Finder. The files are both owned by the same user, and I'm dragging between identically named folders. The files do NOT exist on the MBP when I start this operation.
    When I try this operation, the first thing that occurs is that I am asked to enter my password, which has never occurred before (I just replaced my old Macbook with the MBP, which is the only change since I last tried to copy files from one system to the other). Okay, maybe this is due to the fact that the user numbers don't match (I'm user 501 on the iMac, user 503 on the MBP thanks to a Migration Assistant battle), so I go ahead and enter my password.
    The next thing that happens is I get a dialog that says "A new item named "blah" already exists in this location. Do you want to replace it with the older one you're moving?" When I started the copy, "blah" did NOT exist on the MBP - it was created sometime after I began the copy. The file is empty on the MBP, so I click the Replace button.
    I now get a new dialog that says "The operation can' be completed because an item with the name "" already exists." Note that the filename is apparently an empty string. At this point, I have no choice but to click OK. The copy is terminated, and I'm left with an empty file named "blah" on the MBP.

    It turns out I can drag something from the remote system to the local system (i.e., Macbook Pro to iMac if I'm sitting at the iMac), but not from the local system to the remote system.

  • How to install software from imac to macbook pro

    how to install software from imac to macbook pro

    Are you using one of the newer iMac's with no DVD drive? If so, you can either get an external CD/DVD drive (any make - doesn't have to be Apple) or, if you have another Mac on the same network that has a CD/DVD drive you may be able to do it by turning on 'DVD or CD Sharing' on that Mac (System Preferences>Sharing). Hopefully you'll see the disk on the Mac without the DVD drive and be able to install from there.

  • CS5 from iMac to Macbook Pro

    I have the education version of photoshop CS5 on my Imac ,,, had to buy a new macbook pro,,, how do I install CS5 on new computer?

    You will need to de-activate CS5 on the first computer. Then install it on the 2nd using the same installer file (if from a download) or by inserting the dvd into the computer if purchased on disk. You can mount your first computer as a hard drive on the second computer using target mode.

  • Migrate data from imac to macbook pro

    I want to migrate data from an imac over to a macbook pro. The macbook pro already has data on it which i want to keep on it. I want to make a new user on the macbook pro called "imac" and this user will have all the imacs data stored on it. How can I transfer all this data across and how can i put it into a new user?
    Both computers are running OSX Mavericks.

    Thunderbolt is even better than Firewire.
    Migration Assistant will not overwrite any existing data or existing user account. It will only create a new account and transfer into the new account.
    If you wish to move data from your other computer into an existing user account on the target computer, then you don't want to use Migration Assistant. You would use another type of tool such as a standard backup utility or file/folder synchronization tool. I would suggest using Carbon Copy Cloner. Bear in mind that for this to work correctly the usernames of both the source and target accounts should be the same lest you run into permissions problems after the transfers.
    CCC will let you specify only what you want to transfer or let you clone an entire volume.
