I am moving data for my wife from her dead Mac's hard drive to a new Windows laptop. I have all the emlx files and her Mac address book in ABCDDB format - how (without a Mac) can I get all this into Thunderbird on Windows?

Thanks!

Hi bwgreen.

If you have access to Thunderbird profile from the old computer, please read Move Thunderbird data to a new computer KB article. If not and you have only the .eml files, just set up Thunderbird and drag&drop them into the folder in Thunderbird you want to have them in.

On the Mac she was using Apple Mail - not Thunderbird. So the output files - and there are literally thounsands of them - are emlx files. I don't think Thunderbird for Windows supports these for importing.

Sorry, I misread as .eml. In that case, please try ImportExportTools.

Thanks - I'll try this tonight! Any ideas about the Address Book?

Haven't found any solution for importing ABCDDB directly. Thunderbird supports import from separate .vcf files or text files (ldif, .tab or .csv). So you would have to look for some converter, or run Apple Mail with that file and try to export the address book in different format, if possible.

I contacted a friend who has a Mac - I plan to create a new user, load the existing AddressBook file on it, export it to vCards, then import the vCards into Thunderbird - I found a tool that will allow mass importing of vCards. I haven`t tried ImportExportTools yet - work keep getting in the way! But I plan to do that tonight or this weekend.

Thanks for the help!
