I had to reinstall my program, and I can import all my sent, inbox, draft files, but I had a number of emails in folders under "On My Mac" but I have no idea where to find these files in order to import them back.
Is there a way to import .emlx (email files) from the Library > Mail > .emlx into the Mail program? Up until now I could only open one by one these emails from the icons in the folder (after I changed computer, I took my emails)
Yesterday my computer wouldn't start, and I tried everything for many hours, but no solution.. Finally I decided to start over. I booted from install disc and recreated my system from Timemachine.. So i chose the latest full backup option, and after 7 hours of recreating, my mac is back.. Thank you TimeMachine.
Everything works like a charm..
Almost.

Any one out there who knows how to retrieve these mail??
I have about 10 random emails that I have saved on a flash drive. Each message is saved as an individual email file (.eml) Is there a way I can import the messages into mail.app on my macbook?
I have a problem importing mail from Thunderbird to Mail.app on Leopard. I transfered all my messages from windows computer to a mac that ran Tiger OS and Thunderbird. Now a few months later I upgraded OS to Leopard and wish to import messages from Thunderbird to Mail.app. But Mail imports only messages that have been once transfered from windows and doesn't import any of the messages that I have received or sent on my mac these last few months.
I just got my new MBP and am loving it, but I need to move my windows contacts from my pc to my mbp. They are in the .contact file type, located in the contacts folder under my username in vista. Does address book support this file type? If not, is there any other way to move them over?
First attempt: took copy of "Mail" folder from "Library" folder, and copied it into MacBook's "Library" folder. Opened Mail, and my minor folders (4-5 mail folders with no more than 100 messages each) appeared OK; no sign of my inbox mail (1,300 messages), or sent mail (2,500 messages).
Second attempt: discarded "Mail" folder from above. Ran Apple Backup to restore Mail files. Selected over-write everything option. Same results as above.
I just put in a new hard drive and am moving my stuff from my external HD to my new HD. I opened Iphoto and drug the iphoto folder from my external into iphoto, but for some reason it didn't move my albums. It moved all of my photos, but didn't put them in albums. How can I transfer these so they stay in their albums.
Is it still the case that one cannot import data from Outlook into Mail without having to pay for additional third party software to facilitate the task and IF so - do we know whether Apple plans to resolve this?
I have just upgraded my MacBook Air to OS X Mavericks. When I try and import messages into the new version of Mail for the first time the importation freezes at 349 messages (out of 10,000). The point where it freezes is always the same being "recovered messages" in one of my email accounts.
I just updated my Mac to Yosemite. I did a fresh install (erased disk and then restore documents and data with Time Machine) and installed all updates. Everything is working flawlessly except Mail. I can't make it run. Every time I opened it said that will import the mails, and a window appears and start the process. Yet, it does not go beyond there. I even leave my Mac for a whole night, and never went any further from the screen "preparing to import messages".
I recently bought a macbook pro 13, and this is my first time using my camera to take the pictures out. Whenever I go onto iPhoto or Image Capture it says the file in not recognized. Does anyone know what I can do?
I shot some video with a camcorder that stores video on a memory card and tried to use the log and transfer feature to import the video into FCP but the files are grayed out and not accessible. Are there some formats or camcorders that FCP is not compatible with?
We got a Flip video camera for Christmas, and I'm trying to find a way to easily import the videos into a specific folder on my MBP.
I'm sure there's an automator action or folder action to do this, but I don't even know where to begin for that.
What I want to do is be able to drop the files from the Flip into a specific folder, but I want those files to be automatically renamed into a sequential order once they are dropped in. As it stands, the files are named VID00001, VID00002, etc., and when those are dragged and dropped into a folder on the HDD, the retain that numbering. They are erased from the camera, and the renaming starts all over again.
What I want to do is to be able to drop those new files from the camera into the same folder, and have the numbering pick up at 00003, 00004, etc.
I have just got my first mac and I am really enjoying it so far. I am trying to import video files from the hard drive in to iMovie, the video clips were captured using a Panasonic lumix tz7. I think the format is AVCHD or m2ts? , and my Mac is a macbook pro 17inch i5. Is there something I could be doing wrong or some software that I needed when I purchased my computer (when I purchased it from the apple store the genius's said that format was compatible).
I have a new Mac Pro running Maverick bought when my IMac running Leopard died on me. The reason I never upgraded the old IMac was because of FCP 6 which I did not want to lose. I backed up regularly onto Time Machine and kept my FCP project files on an external hard drive
I was part way through editing a project when my IMac died. I bought 7toX thinking I would be able to import it but now find that I can't because you have to have FCP 6 or 7 already installed to do so, which you can't with OS 10.9.4.
I've got it set up so she can send/receive new emails, but I'm trying to figure out away to import all the old emails that she's already read? And maybe contacts too? Going back and entering them in one at a time would be kind of a pain.
I used to use Entourage but can no longer open it (ID no longer works). I still have my old Entourage identity/data and want to import all of this into Apple Mail. But there is no option to import Entourage data without opening Entourage (which I can't do anymore). Any suggestions how I can import the data to Apple Mail?
I'm running OSX 10.7.3. I've been using Microsoft Entourage 2008 for my mail client but have recently encountered a problem - upon opening Entourage I get an error message that says, Microsoft Sync Services has encountered a problem and needs to close Regardless of what block I click on the error message will not go away and comes back within 10 seconds or so.I want to start using Mail, but I want to import the mailboxes I have in Entourage. In Mail, when I go to import from Entourage it does not work it says it cannot find the mailboxes in Entourage.Is there another way I can do this import? I don't know where the mailbox files for Entourage or Mail are located.
The upgrade to Lion was a bit rocky, but I've made it through.One last thing remains: all my RSS feeds.I've tried dipping into Library/Mail/V2/RSS and dragging my Snow Leopard RSS folders in there; unsuccessful.So is importing them as mailboxes, they simply populate the sidebar on the left.I realize I could manually go and find every RSS feed URL and redo everything.But I had flagged articles and organized posts for reading/reference, and all that would be lost.If anyone knows how I can 'migrate' all of my RSS feeds from my Snow Leopard backup into Lion,

I am switching from a macbook to a windows laptop, and I want to put my existing email folders on it. I exported the folders from my mac, and I have all the .mbox files. How can I put these into my windows mail app in windows 8.1?
I have a MBP that is around 3yo; I'm running 10.9.5.
Over the past eight years or so I've gone through several desktops and laptops and have used disk images (via Time Machine) to move info and programs from one machine to another dozens of times. . .main unit to backup unit and back again, main unit to new unit, etc.
There is all sorts of "stuff" - programs and who knows what - that I probably don't need anymore and I feel like I'm perpetuating some of my computer issues by having all this junk on my hard drive. I'm at the point where I'd like to totally wipe my computer clean and reinstall everything from scratch - but only install the stuff I want/need. I would manually reinstall the Adobe Suite and Microsoft Office suite, for example, and then upload my documents, photos, music, browser bookmarks, etc.
My stumbling block is the bloody Mac Mail program. I use this extensively for work and NEED the folders to be in place with all the emails they contain (including deleted email). This is hugely important and has to go right. I can't seem to figure out how to cherry pick this one from Time Machine, though. It seems that the only option is take the ENTIRE Time Machine disk image and transfer it to my computer (which I don't want).
When I used Entourage years ago it was possible to just export everything and then reimport it onto the new machine. Is this not possible with Mail? Is there a way to "cherry pick" Mac Mail from Time Machine and pull ONLY that over onto my reformatted machine?
I have imported my DVD collection into my hard drive so I can have the entire TV series on my Mac without swapping DVDs all the time (I want to access them via Front Row). Currently the format is AVI and cannot be imported into iTunes. I can however open the movie in quicktime, save as a reference file, then import into iTunes. However, this would take me hours and hours with my video library. If I convert them to *.mov format, it would also take hours and hours. I know there's a program called videodrive that will import them all, but I'd like to buy it only as a last resort. Surely there must be a way to do it via Automator or something?
I'm using a rather old version of iMovie (iMovie 3, actually) and this old dinosaur is having trouble uploading some clips I took of my screen using the trial version of Screen Record 2. I used it once before (Same program, same file format and everything!) and it worked fine, but now all of the sudden it won't accept the files.
An error Message pops up after spending however long it took to upload the file Error During Import The file could not be imported: (-47) The movie also works fine in Quicktime player.
Basically I am a singer songwriter and have recently starting recording myself singing and using iMovie to record and Garageband to record me singing and putting the backing track in. I have no problem importing the Garageband file into iMovie, however I cant find how to make them go in sync - for example when I start singing in the GarageBand file isn't when I start singing in the iMovie video.
If anyone knows how to import outlook pst files including mail messages, sent messages, calendar data, appointments etc. is this all possible in mac? I know a few programs have somewhat similar features, but, even if there is some solution coming out soon, like the new version of office with newer entourage? or leopard mail or even i heard a program like Daylite is similar.
I use a MacBook which is installed with Leopard and is running the latest version. After an email crash, I had to export a number of my folders to my desktop. Now that the problem has been resolved and I want to import those mbox folders back into my iMail (which is running my Gmail accounts) I am not able.
I use the File-Import function and follow the steps. It looks like it is working but after the import the files and the folder are not there.
