[Moving this post from previous thread that was similar but not the same issue]

I have the latest version of MS Outlook running on my 27 Inch iMac that is running the latest version of Snow Lion. I had my local Apple store do the migration of my files from my old PPC Mac running 10.5.8 when I purchased my new iMac. However I am having trouble with moving files from Entourage version 12..3.5 (Microsoft Entourage 2008 for Mac). The Main Identity got corrupted and some of the files did not move over.

What I wanted to do was to select folders of important emails in Entourage, save them to my desktop by dragging them there (where they have a suffix of .mbox, use Dropbox to bring them over to my iMac and then import them using the directions presented in this thread. But when I follow the steps of File-Import-Contacts or Messages-.mbox files I am presented with a window where I can search for the .mbox file to import. But the file I just brought over to my iMacs desktop can be seen it is greyed out and cannot be selected.

How the heck do I bring these folders of email messages into Outlook?

I've tried exporting my Identity but that always gives me an error message. So what other choice do I have?

Any help would be appreciated.


I am loosing posts in my calendar. At first I questioned my own memory and wondered if I occasionally did something wrong. However, I have since then been extremely careful and still, from time to time, but way too often, post in my calendar just disappear. I d I do not seem to be able to trust it and I am about to give up on Outlook. I really need to find the reason and fix, because I have already missed important meetings and it just can't be the case that I am supposed to have to check more than one calendar to get to all important meetings.

Frustrated Outlook user

[Splitting this post from an old thread]

I have this same issue using OSX 10.6.8 with the latest patches and MS Office 14.2.4 (Outlook 2011).  It seems that after pressing Preview, after 5-7 seconds, the attachment that's being previewed no longer is "highlighted" and that's when the preview window shows "No items selected".  It's as if another process is taking the focus away from that attachment to something else...

Aveera repaired my windows live mail and now I cannot open my pdf email or my Word attachments.

No, it did not answer my question why my word emails or pdf emails do not open. They do not open at all.

I asked why I could not open any of my Word or pdf emails.
