Unable to transfer files of OutlookExp in Mac TB - WinXP OutExp to WinXP TB24.4 good migration; but Mac TB24.4 has no import options or profile replacemen

Moving to Thunderbird - I am trying to eliminate my use of WinXP and migrate fully to Mac OSX. I have successfully transferred my many files of dbx (total 3.65 GB of messages) from Outlook Express in TB24.4.0 (such as files with null, msf and sbd) when Outlook and XP TB reside on the same virtual XP (Parallels) from my Mac machine. When I try to fill TB in the side Mac OS10.8.5 with the files, I can't. Tools > import there is no option for Outlook files, just Apple & Eudora mail. Of in Mac TB, I am able to locate the location of the profile (Tools > Configuration Acct > local folders), but in the Finder, it seems not - is hidden. Therefore, neither of these approaches allow import of my emails or the replacement of the current records with my emails. In my first step, I was able to transfer the .wab file Mac address using import to tuberculosis. No luck since. Advice is appreciated.

I'm glad that you guessed it, to work, but just to clarify, to transfer the entire Thunderbird folder, rather than just the profile subfolder, is suggested because it makes useless edit profiles.ini.

Move from one OS to another way some preferences in the profile will not properly transfer as an attachment for the opening of applications, but the repair for this is to remove mimeTypes.rdf in the profile folder and let the TB to create a new empty version. The correct preferences will be set the first time you open attachments.

    I have a couple of steps that should help you to solve the problem.

    Try these steps and check:

    a. do not connect the USB cable first.
    b. go to settings / wireless & network/usb/connection and tap the icon of the samsung Galaxy phone.
    c. it prompts you to connect the cable. It's when you plug the cable and then another icon on the screen.
    d. If it does not, try to connect to a different USB port.
     
    In addition, you can contact Samsung for help.

    Windows Easy Transfer can't transfer files from a 64-bit version of Windows to a 32-bit version of Windows. If you transfer to a 64 bit version of Windows Vista to a 32-bit version of Windows 7, you can move your files manually or use backup and restore in Windows Vista.

  • How can I transfer files of e-mail from my mac pro to my mac air

    Hi all someone can help me ive been trying to transfer files from my Macbook Pro to my Macbook Air e-mail, I have tried dragging to usb sticks, nothing seems to work any help would be appreciated cheers

    Hi Dizzycrow,

    I understand that you want to move some folders of email to your MacBook Pro to your MacBook Air. I know it's important to have control over your data, so I'm happy to provide assistance with this.

    The best way to transfer multiple files between devices is often through the Migration Wizard. That being said, this feature can roll over more files that you want to. You can read more here:

    Move your content to a new Mac - Apple Support

    For transfer only your email address, it may be better to export your mailboxes from your MacBook Pro, so that you can import to your MacBook Air. You can see how to do this here:

    Address postal (El Capitan): import or export the mailboxes

    Thank you for using communities of Apple support and have a great rest of your day. See you soon!

  • Transfer files via AirDrop does not not on Mac Pro with El Capitan

    I tried to transfer files between my iPhone and my macbook pro installed with El Capitan 10.11.5 2015 6 / iPad pro. Between the devices of the latter, it works flawlessly, but on the Macbook, it does not. I followed all the suggestions in the forums, delete the file bluetooth.plist etc. However non of these work. I noticed something in the section ' on the Mac / system report / Bluetooth.

    I don't know if it will be useful, but I would have thought that should not be disabled, Airdrop uses Bluetooth technology.

    These services are for the regular BT file transfer, not release.

    They are listed as being disabled on my Mac Pro 2013 too but AirDrop works very well between my iPhone 6 + and Mac.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones unable to transfer MP3 (music) files

    I can't transfer music to my BB 8707 files, as it says that I am permitted to 2.86 MB. Means I can't transfer files from music at all? Or y at - it another way to do it?

    See you soon

    Hello

    the 8707 can play mp3. The problem is that there is only 64 MB of memory onboard and:

    • a large part of it is used by the operating system
    • You cannot install a memory card on your device

    I know, it sucks. Maybe it's time to buy another device if you intend to use it as a Portable Media Player.

  • transfer files to a Macbook Pro

    Please bear with me. I'm not fine with a PC. I transferred my files from my Windows Vista PC to my new Macbook Pro lap top about a year using the Windows Wizard. The transfer was successful, however, I have not used my new Macbook Pro. I don't know, a mistake on my part I continued using my Windows PC. Now, a year later, my Windows PC is on its last leg and I want to start using my Macbook Pro 'new '. The question I have is, can I use the Windows wizard again to transfer files, I added to my Windows PC since my last file transfer to my Macbook Pro a year ago?

    A friend told me that I should consider resetting my Macbook Pro back to factory settings and then start the transfer of Windows as a new transfer. Should I do this?  Can I use the Windows Easy Transfer Wizard again to transfer my files and does not duplicate files that have already been transferred?  As you can tell, I am lost and need help. Thank you for your help.

    I use a USB flash drive or a backup hard drive to the "exfat" format, which can be read by Microsoft windows and OS - X.

    I copy all my files on the backup disk.

    This way I will always have a copy of my files on a storage disk that I can use with my Mac or PC.

    That way if I ever need to do a reinstall on my Mac or my PC I always get my files from a backup flash drive.

    Or better yet, just use a USB fixed your PC/Mac to the format exfat as disk storage for all your personal files.

    I use this one.
