Outlook For Mac File Location

Their Locations. January 28, 2013. This article describes the Microsoft Office Outlook data file types and their default locations on Windows and Mac OS X.

The files are located in the hidden Library folder. To view the location, you must first unhide the Library folder. Here are instructions for unhiding the library in Yosemite: The individual messages are not files themselves. They are contained in a SQL database. Your backup simply needs to include the database, which is contained within an Outlook 15 Profile.

Here's the file path: Macintosh HD:Users:UserName:Library:Group Containers:UBF8T346G9.Office:Outlook:Outlook 15 Profiles I am pretty sure by default Time Machine backs this up. You can browse your Time Machine to make sure. I am an unpaid volunteer and do not work for Microsoft. 'Independent Advisors' work for contractors hired by Microsoft.

In the corporate world, the most popular email/calendar/contacts system is Exchange Server. Every user has a Mailbox which is stored on the server. The Mailbox stores the user’s email, calendar and contacts and each Mailbox has a maximum size which is set by the Server Administrators.

Users access their Mailbox using a desktop client, the most popular of which is Microsoft Outlook. Many companies implement an archiving system where mails are automatically moved out of the Mailbox and into an archive when they reach a certain age (for example 30 days old). However, without a system like this, when a user’s Mailbox becomes full, they have to delete mails in order to continue to receive and send. This presents a problem for those people who like to keep all emails (and for those who work in certain regulated industries where you are forced to keep all emails). This is where PST files (also known as a Personal Folders) come in handy. A PST file is accessed via Outlook but is not part of a user’s Mailbox.

It usually lives on a user’s local drive and can store email, calendar appointments and contacts. PST files give users extra storage so when they fill up their Mailbox, they create a PST from within Outlook, or open an existing PST file and drag and drop emails from their Mailbox to the PST. For home users and users in companies that use Outlook but don’t have Exchange Server, PST files are the only option for storing mail, calendar and contacts. So why does this concern Mac users? Well, lets look at it from a personal point of view When I first switched to a Mac, I had lots of PST’s on my Windows PC. I had implemented a system of creating one PST per month in order to ensure that the size of the PST’s remained reasonable.

Although Microsoft allow a PST to be up to 2GB in size, it’s recommended that the size of a PST remains under 500MB to reduce the risk of corruption. At the start of each month I’d create a new PST file and that is where the mail would be stored. In order to be able to read the old emails on my Mac, I used O2M, a Windows program from to export my PST’s into a format that Apple Mail, iCal and Address Book can read. I reviewed this way back in. The files produced by O2M were imported into Apple Mail and the PST’s were then left on an archive drive, unlikely to be needed again. Actually, that’s not quite true – due to the sheer number of PST’s, I only converted the most recent ones so I still have many PST’s that can only be opened by Outlook. Where I work, I have a PST that contains personal emails that have been sent to my work email address and work-related emails that I’d like to keep – just stuff like thank you emails and nice feedback emails.
