Not being a mac user, I'll offer my "guess"

If I remember, you can export from Outlook as a .csv file (Import & Export data, then choose the file type)

There should be few problems for the mac to read a .csv file.

That's the avenue I'd explore

Yep tried all of that. It reads the file then does nothing with it. tried csv, tab etc, will try and research further!
