Copy Gmail Signature to Mac Mail

How to eSign a document: copy gmail signature to mac mail

hi my name is Gordon from gimme OH and today I'm going to show you how to import export copy your email signatures from Apple Mail there's a couple of reasons why you might want to be doing this for example if you're changing computers or if you're moving offices or departments it's easy to simply take your existing email signature rather than having to create a whole new one from scratch again so there's a couple of methods to do this I will show you the first way which is basically copying your email signature directly from your sent items so what you'll want to do is you'll need to set up your Apple Mail on your new computer so got your new computer set up your Apple Mail and make sure that all your emails are synced to your mailbox and once you've done that once your emails are synced all you need to do is click on the sent items and find an email that you've sent that has your email signature in it so with this one I'm using an example signature once you've found the signature that you want to copy that you've used in the past simply select it the whole thing and then press command C or just click on edit and then copy does the exactly the same thing and then you go to my own preferences select your account and then click on the plus and then click on and then type in your name for the signature then what you want to do is select all by pressing command a and then removing that that's in there and then pressing command V which pastes the signature in there now I've named Gordon one so I'll just show you it looks the same Gordon one and there it is so I've got my old email signature back just by copying it from the sent items and it's easy Susi's is that really it's it's there's not much more to it so to export your email signature and save it to a file what you want to do first is go onto your old computer so make sure your put your old computer open and your Apple Mail is completely closed then open up finder and and what you want to do is click on go and then hold the option button on your keyboard your service library link pops up that's me just tapping it there so if I hold it I can see that library part comes up and I can click on that once that's open there's a couple of different places where your signatures can be depending on if you're on iCloud or if you're not I'm not using iCloud so mine is simply in the mail folder and then in this v3 folder now it could be v2 or another version there it whatever version it is it'll be just one of the V folders so in this case minus v3 just open that one up and then open mail data and then what you want to do is copy this whole signatures folder on toward your space stick or an external hard drive so I will show you what's in there quickly you'll see there's some signature files basically and there you'll need all of these in order for your signatures to work I will show you what I mean by that if I click back what I'll do is I'll take the signatures folder out of here so if you remember before I had two signatures in my Apple Mail and now I'll open Apple Mail again and there should be no signatures in there now when I open up and there you go it's got no signatures in there because we've taken how that signatures folder so I just close that off again so now when you go on to your new computer you simply navigate to the same path which is library in your library mail V 3 V 2 or any V version and then slash mail data when you're obviously creating a new account there will be no signatures folder in there and what you want to do is go to attach your USB thumb drive and copy and paste that signatures folder back into there like so for this example I obviously just moved it to my desktop and but you can see what I mean imagine if the desktop was you you expect um Drive so now I've pasted signatures folder back in there if not mail again my email signatures should be in there now which they are if you're looking for an email signature why not try our free email signature generator called gimme oh we've got over 40 templates to choose from and they're all completely free to use one of the great things about guineo is that you can create email signatures not only for yourself but for your entire team really really quickly by applying certain fields just the signature or - all the signatures in the group the other great thing as well is that you've got a ton of styling options you can choose a whole bunch of different fonts and social icons and many other things as well so why not give us a try it over to Kim Dao and create your free email signature thank you very much for watching and see you next time
