Lotus Notes For The Mac

Step 1

Lotus Notes Release 3.0 shipped in May 1993. By this time, Iris had about 25 developers working on Lotus Notes. Release 3.0 was build number 114.3c. This means that it was the 114th successful build of Lotus Notes ever and that it took three tries to complete the final build. Since NSF is the proprietary database format of Lotus Notes, no other application supports it. Thus, NSF files are inaccessible in Apple Mail. On the other hand, we have Mac Mail. Apple Mail or Mac Mail is an email client that is included in the OS X operating system and is very common among Mac users. See in the Activity Monitor on the Mac that Lotus Notes had fully closed and that the installer was running in the background. Once the installer finished the dialog box changed to ‘Lotus Notes Is Installing’ and then very quickly changed to ‘Lotus Notes is Restarting’. This is probably something that needs to be examined.

IBM Lotus Notes 8.5 is now available for Mac OS X computers, boasting a user interface that lets users access Notes' full messaging and collaboration features from one screen. The new release also.

A Notable Story!!!

I, Alvina Gupta was surprised when I got a chance to write up my feedback about the task, i.e. going to be published on the official website. It was privileged for me to get offered with a wonderful opportunity to entered in the world of writing. Actually, this success story is all about the NSF to Apple Mail Conversion, Where I need it, all Ups & Downs and How it was achieved. Formerly I was deploying Lotus Notes (email client) for my e-communication that´s why I used to save all my important and casual data in it.

This happened few months ago, when I was in very much stress as I have to choose the expert from two master email clients. And the data I have stored in NSF file is more than 1 TB which is not an easy task to convert them from Notes to mac Mail readily. Now I was left with two choices, either I have to go with Lotus/Domino or acquires the most lovable email client of mine i.e. Mac Mail.

Where I Need it?

There was not a single reason to import NSF to Mac Mail; actually I was fed up with the Lotus Notes interminable complexities. Look over the Favourable reasons of NSF to Apple Mail Conversion listed below-:

  • Easy to handle Mac Operating System as from the very beginning I was used to work with this OS.
  • Freely available with Mac Operating System and can be easily synchronized with IOS Server.

Adverse Condition of Lotus Notes

  • One of the major drawbacks of IBM Notes is its proprietary file format i.e. NSF. It does not enable me to open on different platform except Lotus Notes.
  • Complex behavior & Interface of IBM Notes makes me scratchy to work with.
  • An extra Maintenance charge of Lotus Notes gets unaffordable for me sometime.
  • I can´t share the documents with anyone that is stored in NSF files.

The Most Chasing Part

After solving all if´s & but´s and analyzing ups & downs, I have decided to import NSF Emails to Apple Mail. I know the fact that Lotus Notes supported NSF files cannot be imported to another email client like Mac Mail or others. So my first and biggest challenge to find appropriate as well as affordable third party tool. I found many NSF Emails to Mac Mail Converter on the internet, but to believe them blindly is nothing more than the stupidity.

Lotus Notes For Windows 10

Now it′s time to make a parameter list to Judge the tool before investing into it:

  • Software that can easily export entire E-Mails from Lotus Notes NSF file into Apple Mail without any data difference.
  • Retain Meta details of each Mail and made no compromise with oversized attachments.
  • The tool must be Accurate, Affordable, Easy to Use and Fast to work with huge data file size.
  • Must be Cross Platform compatible and No issue with the Older & Newer Version of Application

Lotus Notes 8.5 Free Download

I’m a big fan of Smart Upgrade in Lotus
Notes when it comes to installing upgrades on MS Windows machines. The
SURunAs wizard is probably one of the best features ever added to the Smart
Upgrade toolkit and it allows me to deploy upgrades very quickly after
they are available to download from the IBM Lotus website.

Just last Friday I had build the Smart
Upgrade package for 8.5.1 FP2 and had it setup for deployment to the rest
of the IT Dept within 30 minutes of downloading the files and before the
end of the day nearly half of the IT Dept had upgraded. All I have to do
is add in a group to the Smart Upgrade kit and the rest of the company
will be upgraded to FP2 without further IT intervention.

Everybody but our Mac users that is.
I’ve never really looked into Smart Upgrade for Mac users till now and
I found a few interesting tidbits of information as well as a few headaches…

The first thing to know about Smart
Upgrade for mac users is that you attach the DMG file downloaded from the
IBM website to the Smart Upgrade kit document. I originally tried attaching
the MPKG file that is inside the DMG but it failed when it couldn’t mount
it. Thankfully the error message made sense and it was a quick fix.

The next thing to know is that there
is no SURunAs for Macs. Once the DMG file is downloaded to the client machine
and is mounted the Smart Upgrade installer will ask for a username and
password for somebody with rights to do the install. Depending on your
environment this may be the end users password if they have admin rights
on their mac, otherwise it will be an IT member that will have to remote
into the machine to supply the password. Expect a lot of helpdesk calls
if your end users don’t have install rights.

The install itself is silent, just a
small ‘Smart Upgrade’ dialog box. Unfortunately the dialog box does not
get updated with the correct information during the install. On my computer
it was stuck at ‘Lotus Notes Is Still Running’ even though I could clearly
see in the Activity Monitor on the Mac that Lotus Notes had fully closed
and that the installer was running in the background. Once the installer
finished the dialog box changed to ‘Lotus Notes Is Installing’ and then
very quickly changed to ‘Lotus Notes is Restarting’. This is probably something
that needs to be examined.

More importantly, however, is that on
the Mac the Smart Upgrade cannot chain installs like it can on Windows
Machines. Say you have a kit to goes from 8.5.1 to 8.5.1 FP1 and a second
kit to go from 8.5.1 FP1 to 8.5.1 FP2, if a user with just 8.5.1 logs in
they will get an error from Smart Upgrade telling them to inform the admin
that there are chained installs in the Smart Upgrade Kits database. Why
it can’t download one upgrade, run it and then after Notes restarts download
Drivers for xbox 360 controller mac os. the next upgrade is beyond me. This is certainly something that needs to
be investigated for future versions of Smart Upgrade on the Mac.

One oddity that I noticed is that on
Windows machines the Fix pack build numbers have a space between the Notes
version number and the Fixpack number, for example, Release 8.5.1 FP2.
On the Mac there is no space so it appears as Release 8.5.1FP2. This is
something you’ll need to remember when creating the Smart Upgrade Kit Documents.

Lastly, you can customize the install
if you want to add or remove features like Sametime or Symphony. You will
need to extract the files form the DMG file into a directory and then right-click
on the MPKG file to show the package contents. In the ‘Deploy’ directory
is the install manifest XML file where you can turn on and off features.
Once edited and saved you can then use Disk Utility to create a new DMG
file that you use in the Smart Upgrade Kits.
