Transfer of Outlook express address book to PC

I have a new computer and want to transfer the addresses stored in my blackberry to my computer...
Can someone walk me through the process?

Connect you HH with your desktop Manager in your PC. If you device is connected with BES server then you need to turn off wireless synchronization. To do so go to Address Book -> click Menu -> Options -> Wireless Synchronization: No -> click Menu and Save the changes.
-> No click on the Synchronize button on Desktop Manager -> Click on Configuration Tab then click on Configure Synchronization -> Click on Choose under Address Book (on the right side of the pop up window) -> Click on you organizer apps (like, MS outlook, Lotus notes etc) -> Select desired apps -> select Synchronization radio button and click OK twicego back to Synchronize tab ->click on Synchronize Now

How Do I Import Outlook Express Address Book?

I have a PC running WXP using Outlook Express as a mail client. And, I have a MAC that I'm trying to get email set up on. I'm trying to get completely off WXP as a home computing environment. Accordingly, I'd like to import the Outlook Express address book from the PC into Address Book on the MAC so I don't have to re-key all those entries. But, I guess I'm not entering the correct magic words, because I haven't been able to find anywhere online exactly how to do this. The Address Book application implies that it can import a csv file, but I can't find out what the format of the CSV file is supposed to be. I exported the OE Address book to a WAB file on my WXP system, and mounted that disk to MAC, and I can see the file, but there doesn't seem to be any way to import it.
I can create a CSV file fairly easily in Windows if I know the format MAC address Book expects it to be in so I can import it.
So, I need a clue. I'm surprised to find out how difficult this seems to be, given the general user-friendliness of the Apple environment, and that no one else seems to have had the problem.

Haven't done this yet but when I was getting my new iMac, we googled it at the Apple store and saw a link to advice on how to do this through Mozilla - apparently you have to transfer it to Mozilla first and then to the Mac. Hope this helps.
And btw, any other new converts having trouble with their new iMac's freezing up? Here I was all ready to be part of the Apple Army and loved it for the first few days -- only to have it freeze on me so often that I'm ready to bring this lemon back to the store.

Transfering Outlook Express Address Book to OS X mail

Hi Folks,
Have finally made the leap from OS 9 to OS X.
That was the easy part.
Now, how to successfully tranfer my 700+items Outlook Express Address Book into OS X mail? I'm about at my wits end. I've thus far managed to transfer the lot of them into Microsoft 'entourage' X. Whew! I still can't figure out how to transfer them into the OS X email program. I need access to those names/email addresses ASAP. It's vital to my work. Help!
Thanks much in advance.
Namaskara,
David M.

I'm a newbie, but I think this may work:
Since Mail uses the addresses stored in Mac's Address Book app, open AB. Go to File/Import and select LDIF as the type of file you wish to import. Locate and click on the OE address book filename in the window that appears. It is most probably located in the Documents folder. Highlight the filename and click Open. The contents of this file will now appear in AB, and will then be accessible from Mail.
Let us know if it works.

Importing Windows Outlook Express address book

Hello
I have been trying to import an Outlook Express address book (which is stored on a DVD) to MS Entourage with not much luck
I can't seem to find an 'option' to import an external address book.
The only options available seem to be to import Entourage docs/archives etc.
Can anyone help?

I've been looking into this myself and there are a number of possibilities. You can't just import an address book but importing all your contacts can be done. Search discussions here for the topic (the Mail and Address Book forum has stuff on getting contacts out of Outlook) and also Google the web, there are several threads elsewhere. There are even shareware utilities to help.
Also look under Mac 101: Shifting From PC in the Support section here. Apple has a little bit to say on it, although not terribly helpful to me.

Outlook Express address book to Entourage

Changing from a PC to a MacBook Pro - Is there any way I can export my PC Outlook Express address book to my MacBook Pro? I am using Entourage and would like to have my address book exported rather than having to type everything. Is this possible or do I have a lot of typing to do?

've exported the address books into a variety of file types within the iMac: ldif, html, xls, (comma separated) rtf, txt and and none of those file types will import into either Entourage or Apple Mail on my G4. I've been racking my brain for weeks on this trying to find some conversion software or format to easily get these addresses into my Mail applications without having to tediously enter in each one by one.
Address Book (note that Address Book is the Apple utility for managing your contacts - Mail makes use of it) should be able to import either comma separated or tab separated text files. For the former the extension must be .csv and for the latter .txt.
Tab-separated (or delimited if you prefer) is often better, as addresses may have a comma in them.

Hi John, might be better to use migration assistant on both & migrate the whole PC user, but...

On my home PC, I operate with Windows XP and use Outlook Express for my email. Can my Outlook Express address book be imported by my IPhone4

On my home PC, I operate with Windows XP and use Outlet Express for my email. Can my Outlook Express address list be imported to my IPhone4

Not directly; OE is not supported by iTunes. You need full Outlook. Address Book in later versions of Windows is supported.

Transfer Outlook Express Address Book & emails from old iMac 333 to iMac G5

Trying to import my old address book and a collection of emails from Outlook Express 5.0.6 to Mail2.0.2. I've tried everything that Outlook requires and no luck yet. I am reluctant to reload all those names, addresses, etc. into my new iMac G5. Also, I have many emails from my old iMac 333 and need them for my new G5 mail files. Can I read them into Mail 2.0.2 ?
Thanks for any advice.

I was having no success at all when I was trying to import mail data from Outlook Express to Mail on the same office G4 Tower where I just upgraded to Tiger, where all the Apple docu says it is possible...
Then I realised,
1. When in X, when importing data from OE, Classic has to be booted, my only and originally OS 9 (installed X on another partition) is to "heavily loaded" with a lot of 3rd party extensions etc, it never loaded completely
Solution: Install another clean and lean copy of OS 9 somewhere else, then designate this as your Classic, and make sure you only have one copy of OE and one set of your Identities etc in the Document folder
2. The easier way out is if you have Office X or Office 2004, use Entourage to import everything from OE, then use Mail to import from Entourage.
Cheers

Outlook Express Address Book: Exporting to iMac

What is the best, and easiest, way to get the information in my OE Address book into my just-purchased iMac. The old PC is still running and the iMac is yet to be plugged in. If there is doubt in anyone's mind, my talents lie elsewhere. Any guidance is appreciated and needed.

To export contact information from OE on the PC to CSV format, try this:
1. Launch Outlook Express on the PC.
2. From the File menu, click Export, and then click Address Book.
3. Click Text File (Comma Separated Values), and then click Export.
4. Click Browse.
5. Choose or create a folder in which to save the file.
6. In the File Name box, type "addresses", and then click Save.
7. Click Next.
8. Click to select the check boxes for the fields that you want to export, and then click Finish.
9. Click OK and then click Close.
10. Transfer the file from the PC to the Mac.
To Import the file into the Mac OS X Address Book:
1. Launch Address Book on the Mac.
2. From the File menu choose Import.
3. Choose the format of the exported file from the submenu. In this case choose "Text file," which is appropriate for either a tab-delimited or CSV file.
4. Select the file that contains the exported addresses.
5. Use the pop-up menus in the Text File Import dialog that appears to specify how to import the data. The first line in the file contains labels, so check the "Ignore first card" checkbox.
6. Use the left and right arrows to see different records in the file you're importing. This will let you determine how to set the popup menus. If you don't want to import a field, set the popup menu to "Do not import."
7. To set the popup menus for address fields, choose the type of address (home, work, or other) in the pop-up menu next to the first item of the address. Then use the address popup menus that appear to choose the corresponding data for each address field.
To transfer emails, you'll need to work with Entourage as a middleman, which you probably have as part of a 30 day trial of Office 2008 on the new iMac, but this is what you do:
1. On your PC, run Outlook Express ("OE") and select all messages in your Inbox folder (Control-A), and drag and drop all of the selected messages to an empty folder named Inbox on your PC Desktop.
Verify that the number of files inside that new folder you created matches the number of msgs in your OE Inbox (right-click on the Inbox icon in OE and select Properties to get that number). The exported files are ".eml" files which have the header and body of the message, in plain text format.
Do the same for messages in your Sent mailbox.
2. Transfer those new folders to your Mac, whether by Ethernet or CD-RW, USB drive or whatever way you choose.
3. Launch Entourage; create a new subfolder folder of "On My Computer." In Mac OS, select all the .eml files which came from OE "Inbox" and drag and drop them into this new subfolder in Entourage (the cursor will show a + sign if Entourage allows you to do the drop. This may take awhile to complete, depending on how many messages you're transferring; Entourage, or Mac OS, may not respond for a few minutes. You'll have to do this for "Sent" and any other OE folders, but not now; you need to do these one folder set at a time.
4. Create an Entourage Mail View that excludes all folders, including the one new subfolder you just creeated. For Criteria, set Match "if all criteria are met," "Folder Is Not Inbox," "Folder Is Not Outbox," etc.). What you're trying to do is identify the messages just imported and consolidate them in one view listing. Check the view for errors. Sort it by date and scroll through from the start to end to check if the topmost and bottommost messages have either empty dates or today's date and time in it. If there are such messages, these are errors and you can correct or delete them.
When all the messages look good to you, or if you choose to just delete the ones with errors, make sure Entourage is finished populating the view, then select and drag and drop the Mail View folder (the view icon, not the messages) to your Desktop. This will create a ".mbox" file on your Desktop with the name of the view.
You can now create separate mbox files for your OE "Sent" and other folders; however, you must delete the new subfolder you previously created in Entourage, empty the deleted items folder and start over with a new Entourage subfolder before doing each drop -- otherwise the view will pick up messages from previous drop(s).
5. Import the Entourage .mbox file(s) using Apple Mail. In Apple Mail, select File -> Import Mailboxes, select Standard mbox files and point it to the folder with your .mbox file(s). Ensure each .mbox file is checked. After clicking ">>", Mail will start importing one message at a time.
Be sure to check the number of messages imported into Apple Mail (shown when the mailbox is opened in Mail) -- the number should match the number of .eml files fed into Entourage. If it doesn't match, a common error is the Entourage Mail View wasn't populated completely when it was exported to mbox; start over with the import into Entourage and make sure the view is finished populating. Another error is the From/To error mentioned above; if you chose to just delete the bad messages, the numbers won't match exactly. Also, make sure the deleted items folder is emptied between each drop to avoid duplicate messages.
