Outlook Address Book
Aug 28, 2009
My home computer is Windows XP with outlook 6. My new laptop is Vista Home Basic. I cannot find how to transfer my contacts from home to laptop. I really have tried.
When I go to windows explorer and search for the microsoftoutlook, nothing comes up, and I have clicked "show hidden files". I really only need the contacts, can someone help? Step by step, please. (Vista is all new to me.)

I am running a new Sony Vaio laptop with Vista Home Premium installed (no SP1 offered to me as yet). My question is not one for the Outlook newsgroup (I reckon) but simply as to the path in Windows Vista leading to the Outlook Address Book. I ask because it was my custom to back up Outlook Express daily on to an external hard drive by drag and drop. I would transfer to related address book in a similar manner. Having upgraded to Outlook, I am able to back up that folder daily in a similar manner. But when I find the new address book, in .csv format, it does not relate directly to the new address book that I have edited in Outlook format. My question is, put simply, is there a proper address book lurking away in the background that is invisible to me?

Whenever i create a new email by click "To" to open up my address book for selecting any email address, or when i use "reply all" and want to add in some more email address from the address book, the computer start to run and till it stuck, so the only choice for me is to end this task and type email address instead of selecting email address from address book.
i thought that this is because i got too many email address, thus i deleted most of it and now only got 700 email address inside my address book, i just can not understand that when outlook express can take more than 3000 email address book, but windows mail can not take about 700 email address book. And somemore, this email address book is just useless for me, because whenever i want to use the address book, the windows mail is going to hang... and the only choice is to go to task manager, end this task and restart my windows mail.

I just bought my wife a new computer - it has Windows Vista Home Premium Edition for an OS. While I don 't know Vista, I think I have the machine pretty well set up - even though I am a XP person. It seems Vista has some new features, including a scheduling calendar. Does anyone know if Vista includes a address list - you know, the old-fashined one where you can keep track of names, street addresses, telephone numbers etc?

I am using Vista, Outlook Express. I need to add a contact to my address book but can't, for the life, of me, figure out how to do it. I've gone to the HELP function which tells me what to do, but the toolbar that is supposed to come up isn't there. When I click on CONTACTS the toolbar (reading across from left to right) says: ORGANIZE / VIEWS / PLAY ALL / BURN. Nowhere is there a feature that says NEW CONTACT.

Using Vista Easy Transfer, I migrated all my files from my XP laptop (running Office 2003) to my new Dell laptop (running Office 2007). Everything went fine, except I don’t have any address book when I attempt to send an email from Outlook. All my contacts came across in the transfer, but they don’t appear in an address book. When I attempt to designate a Contacts folder (via the properties dialog box in the contacts folder) as an Outlook address book, the check box to allow this is greyed out – and under the Administration tab in the same properties dialog box, it appears that no one is allowed access (nothing is checked, but this is also greyed out). When I have installed Office 2007 on other machines, still running XP, all works OK – so it appears the problem is Vista based.

Why does my address book not propigate? If I select "TO" and then the address, then sometimes this same address will propigate next time I send to the same address, but sometimes even that stops propigating. None of the other addresses propigate. Is there a patch or fix
for this?

In my old Windows XP Outlook Express address book allowed me to put addresses under headings like "Friends", Work", "Family", etc. The address book under Vista does not have that feature. Has anyone figured out how to make Vista address book more user friendly and put addresses in groups using Vista?

I have just talked a friend (over the phone) on how to "Export" her Vista Mail Contacts as A comma separated file. She is going to dump Vista and install Win XP (and OE). The file has been saved as an excel file onto a USB Mem Stick She will be installing Office 2007 etc, Will OE be able to "Import" the CS File into her "New" OE Address Book? (Each mention I have seen describes the CS File as a "text" file)

I use Windows Mail and I have tried by several of the usual ways to delete individual entries but every time an error message comes up with "Windows Explorer has stopped working" and not possible. Last time the only way I could do it was to delete the address book and so when I started Windows mail it started a new one. I had to re-input the data which was a ruddy nuisance.

I have over 1000 emails in my sent box. I want to add all of these sent addresses to my address book (Contacts). If I highlight more than one it greys out the add to contacts. Do I need to do these individually or is there a way to add them in one stroke?

I just recently purchased my Vista pc, and I'm having problems organizing my contacts in the new Windows Mail address book (or contacts folder). In OE, I could sort my contacts into folders. Then when I would send an e-mail I could click on "to" and a window opened showing the list of folders in a drop down menu. I would choose the folder I wanted to pick my recipient (s) from. I could choose them individually or in groups. For some reason I can't figure out how to do this with Windows Mail Contacts. I have sorted my contacts into separate folders, but every time I click on "to" to choose the recipients of my message, it does not show the folders, but instead shows every single contact in the folder. It doesn't separate them at all. This makes choosing the recipients very tedious indeed.

My wife's motherboard just crapped out and I need to retrieve her emails and address book from Windows Mail. This urgent as she uses the computer for her business and it has literally several thousand email addresses, email groups, and messages. The OS is Vista Home Premium. Where within the file structure on her hard drive would I find those folders/files? Which folders/files am I specifically looking for?

When I enter the first letters of an email recipient's name, a selection of possible recipients appears in a box beneath the To: line. I appreciate this feature, but I would like to eliminate one of these alternative recipients, which is not even in my contacts list. How do I eliminate this unwanted recipient's address? Perhaps this box that ppears is simply a history of sent/received emails beginning with that particular letter -- if so, how do I edit this history?

I'm learning to use Vista (new computer purchased yesterday) and my old PC as XP and Office 2003. I only use the calendar feature of Outlook and was wondering if there's a way to import my outlook file (outlook.pst) to Vista Calendar (seems to only import .ics files) as I don't yet have Outlook 2007 installed on my Vista PC.

in Window XP, i used to be able to select full address to be displayed in the address bar. But for Window Vista, I could not find the way to do it. e.g. instead of showing D:Document, i want to show \sapsgsmapsnap01document. I want to send the link to my colleague to access directly to destination folder.

I just bought a WD My Book Home 1tb about 3 months ago, and I recently started having this peculiar issue with it. I can't "safely remove" as it says a program is using it (I have no idea what) and if I just unplug it, it isn't recognized under My Computer when I plug it back in. I tried using the eSATA connection on it, and I'm assuming it went to sleep or something and isn't accessible. I tried using USB again, on two different ports, and as per something someone said on another site, tried plugging into different outlets, all to no avail. It is listed under device manager as "working" but I can't access it. The only solution I have found is to reboot my computer, but that is quickly growing very annoying. If I plug into my friend's Vista PC (32bit I think) however, it works fine.
