Hi all would appreciates if some can answer me on the below,
I just bought my first Mac Book Black 13.3" Notebook PC (2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor, 1 GB RAM, 160 GB Hard Drive, 8x SuperDrive) Black" and I need to transfer all of my data to it including my MS outlook mail. What is the best way? thanks
Most things you can just copy. Burn to CD or DVD on Windows, then copy it to your Mac. There's Move2Mac which is supposed to be pretty good. I've never used it myself, but I've been told it's worked for others. For Outlook there's Outlook2Mac (never used it myself). If you use an IMAP account it's even easier, then everything is on the server and you just set up your email on the MacBook and you're done.
I think EmiratesMac has answered some of your questions, but I just wanted to welcome you to the Mac Family! Congratulations on your new Mac.Originally Posted by aboudi
HI ABoodi,
Other options that are also available to you when moving from a Mac to a Pc. Is to use an ethernet crossover cable (or 2x straight through cables and a switch / Hub and transfer data that way.
If you happen to have limited data and are sitting on an E1, infact anything up through E5 will do, then using apples idisk is also an option.

guys what about just .pst files.
I have my mail archived in .pst and i would like to retrieve them in mail. Is there a way or app avail on versiontracker? or elsewhere?
Isn't that what Outlook2Mac does (linked to in the earlier post)?
its only got .exe files for downloads chief
And if you want to do some command line work, there's this.
Okay, you have to run it in Windows to export the mail. You don't have access to Windows with Outlook?
There's also this, but it also requires you to do things in Windows first.
