Can't import from Palm Desktop 4.1

John Hughes

I am trying to import my user data file from Palm Desktop into Entourage
and can't because the User Date file isn't highlighted on the Open: Microsoft
Entourage screen. I am using OS 10.3, Entourage 10.1.4 and Palm Desktop
4.1. Any suggestions

Entourage X was designed before PD finally got around to creating a version
for OS X. So you can only import from the Classic PD 2.6.x.

You can import the data form PD 4.1 via my script "Export-Import Entourage
X" available at

MacScripter.net <http://macscripter.net/scriptbuilders/>

Read the Installation and "Other Programs" section at the end of the ReadMe.
It can be a little tricky for Datebook (Calendar) and Todos (Tasks) because
PD's tab & return export omits a header line! But it is possible - and the
"Other" converters were actually designed for PD. You can do contacts
without the script.
