Time to create or update your email address book!
These instructions/pictures are for Entourage. The Apple “Mail” program (for the few of you who got it going) is similar, if you need help you can bring your MacBook to me or Juan (as can anyone needing help) and we can get you fixed up.
The instructions will appear above the picture
Open Entourage
entourage

click on the address book button

Click on FILE and select “Import”

File import

Select “contact or messages from a text file” then click the right arrow at the bottom.

Find the “Comeandgetit” folder

Highlight the rallsemail.txt file and click on import

rallsemail

This is what will pop up, the first “record” should read Name and emaill address ONLY. You may need to click the “previous” button so that is what shows on the right hand (unmapped fields) box:
pop up
record

To map the fields (must be done for a sucessful import) you need to grab the word Name from the right side of the box and move it over to the left side of the box, dropping it by “Last Name”:
name

Then scroll down the left side of the screen until you see email address 1. Drag “email address: from the right side over next to the “email address 1″

You are now ready to click the import button. There is no need to save the mapping setting, just click “don’t save.”

When it iis all done it will give you a finished button!

done
You did it! Trust me, it take way longer to read the directions than it actually takes to accomplish the task. Holler if you need help!
