Transferring Email from Outlook 2007 to a new iMac running Leopard

I previously decided to make the jump from Windows Vista Ultimate to a new iMac several months ago and was just waiting for the release of Leopard. It was my understanding that the transfer would be seamless. But I recently read an article by Walt Mossberg that appeared to indicate that you cannot transfer email files from Outlook 2007 to the iMac's email program. Does anyone know if this is true or not? I need to have all of my old email folders. I DO NOT want to have to buy and install a Microsoft operating system to make this work either. This is a deal killer for me if I cannot have my old emails available.

Can't sync multiple emails from Outlook 2007 into Iphone

It only listed the main (usually work) email, and does not transfer the home and other emails from Outlook. I can manually enter a second email and label it on the iphone, but that is not helpful as I have hundreds of business/friends with multiple emails in my Outlook... it does get home and work addresses...

Hi,
The workaround is to use Cached Exchange Mode or "Shift + Delete", as the user doesn't want to delete the message permanently, using Cached Exchange Mode is preferred.
Based on my research, this issue is more Exchange 2010 related, and you mentioned the user also got the error from Outlook Web Access. This issue occurs after Exchange 2010 Service Pack 2 RU6 or Exchange 2010 Service Pack 3 is installed.
To resolve this issue, install the following update rollup:

I hope the information is helpful.

How do I upload my contacts, calendar and notes from outlook 2007 to my new iPad with retina display

I just cleaned up my outlook 2007 contact files.
I have an iPhone 5, a new iPad with retina display, and a PC, which is where the outlook program is.
I also have an iCloud account
How do I get the contacts, calendar and notes from outlook to any of these devices, so I can have one synced contact file on all three devices?
I'm sure I am not the first one asking about this but I am new to Apple, and loving it.

With your device connected and iTunes open, navigate to the 'info' tab and scroll down. You'll see the option to sync contacts and such from outlook.

The iPhone is not a backup device, so you shouldn't expect to be able to get everything that is on it onto your new computer. The far better way is to restore the backup of your old computer onto the new computer. Here is what you CAN save from the iPhone - start by installing the latest version of iTunes on your new computer:
Verify that your new computer has iTunes 10.5.2. If it doesn't, download and install the latest version from http://www.apple.com/itunes
Authorize the new iTunes to the account the iPhone is associated with
Connect the phone but DO NOT SYNC
Choose "Transfer Purchases" from the iTunes File menu - this will copy your purchased music to iTunes on the Mac
Click on the iPhone name in the left panel, then the "Info" tab in the right panel
Choose apps on your computer to sync Contacts and Calendars to (probably Address Book and iCal)
Make sure there is at least one entry in each app on your Mac
If you have music that was not purchased from iTunes on your iPhone you will have to find a third party Mac app to copy it to your computer. Google for "iphone file browser"
If you have photos in the Camera Roll you can transfer them to iPhoto, which should have opened when you connected the phone. If it didn't launch the Image Capture app
If you have photos in the Photo app the iphone file browser can copy them to your computer, HOWEVER, they will be lower resolution than the originals
After doing all of the above sync the phone.
As I said at the beginning, it would be far easier just to restore the backup of your previous computer.

Sync email from outlook 2007 to iPhone5s

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out how I can sync my office email to my iPhone such that any emails sent or saved in drafts, automatically syncs to my phone as well. Any leads will be of great help.

What kind of email account/system is used at your place of work? E.g. my workplace uses Microsoft Outlook and our IT person provided me with the correct in/out server information so that I could add a new Exchange account on my iPhone and iPad.

Can't receive emails from Outlook 2007...

It was fine until around mid May, then just got error message saying Cant access server, check your Mail settings are correct - but all is correct and unchanged from previous... Have shut down iPad and restarted, have close Outlook and tried test emails and downloading to iPad, have checked settings with server. It seems to Send fine, just not download! Have POP setup, however, often out PC Outlook is closed and therefore we should be getting emails on iPad, and were fine before mid May. Very frustrating!

Re: how to recover permanatly delete email from outlook 2007?

I don't have backup data for the mail in server. Is there any other options to recover mail?

If you have Exchange:
Outlook -> Folder -> Recover Deleted Items.
Beyond that, you need to do a restore of the mailbox from the server.
If it was a PST, you can try to restore the folder it was stored in to a Previous Version.

Transferring data from old macbook pro to new iMac

Hi,
I am wondering whether i need to update my macbook pro to maverick prior to transfer? Its quite old, and not sure it can handle it.
Should I use time machine or migration assistant?
Thanks!

No. Just migrate your files - the Home folder. You would only need to upgrade the old machine if you cannot get the two to talk to one another over your local network connections. By all means use your Time Machine backup via Migration Assistant.

Can't send email from Outlook with parentheses in address

I can't send email from Outlook 2007 through my WRT400N when Outlook displays the address with parentheses as in this example: Firstname Lastname ([email protected])
I can send if the address is in this form: Firstname Lastname <[email protected]>
I have tested with the ISP and nothing gets through the router when the problem occurs. When I bypass the router, both forms of address will send correctly. This problem is perfectly reproducible. My router is brand new, but the problem did not show up for about a week after installation. OS is Win7. Any ideas? Thanks.

Solved!

Try to forward the port 443 to 447 on the router.Check this link.

Moving email from Outlook Express on Windows XP to Leopard Mail

What are the steps I should take to move my email from a Windows XP computer running Outlook Express to my new iMac running OS X 10.5 and Mail?
I'm assuming I have to move the mailbox files from the Windows machine to the iMac and then run some kind of import.
Where are the mailbox files on the Windows machine and what are they called?
Does Mail support a direct import of those files or do I have to convert them somehow? If I have to convert them, is there an export command in Outlook Express that will do the trick? If not, what do I need to do to convert the files? Is there an application (preferably a free one that can do the trick)?
Finally, anything I should know about that could cause an import of email to choke - bad characters in folder names, too many emails in a folder, subsubfolders, etc.?
Thanks in advance,
Steve

Since there were no responses, I figured I'd post my own solution. After searching around online, there seem to be several ways to accomplish this. The first I tried was installing Thunderbird on the XP box and importing the Outlook Express email into it. This seemed to have grabbed most of my email. For some reasons a few boxes did not show up in Thunderbird though. Next step was to move the Thunderbird mailboxes over to the Leopard box and run the import process in Mail. This worked for all of my boxes except my Sent mail which choked the import routine (spinning beach ball). So, I went back into Thunderbird and split the 12K emails in the sent box into 6 separate email boxes and moved those over to the Mac. They imported fine. Then I just moved the messages back into the sent box.
That still left the few mystery mail folders that didn't import into Thunderbird. For those, I downloaded a utility that converted dbx to mbox format. Ran it on those boxes, renamed the new file extensions to mbox from mbx and moved those to the Mac and imported them into Leopard.
For some reason one box still didn't come across. But I just forwarded the 8 emails in that box to myself.
It took forever (mainly because the XP machine was so slow and because of the number of emails). But, it did work.
