I tried to import my favorites from one PC to another. I got multiple Favorites folders. Then I delete everything in the Favorites folder and tried importing again. Now when I add to favorites, I see something totally different in the drop down box than what is left on my screen. The two are no the same. What do I need to do to make them the same? Does the export/import not work correctly?
View 4 RepliesInstructions to export contacts are to open the contacts folder - select Tools - select Export. However, when I select Tools in the contact folder I have only 4 choices - Map Network - Disconnect Network Drive - Open Sync Center - Folder Options. I cannot find the options to Import or Export anywhere. I want to export the email addresses so they can be used on my laptop running XP pro.

The contact lists havent transfered....I paid for the software and the cable and everything...NONE TO BE FOUND IT INFORMS ME.... nowhere to be found even when I try to import/export.... also, the language is nowhere to be found.. when I try to do a spell check.. I actually hate this new vista and also all the changes to HOTMAIL. Who wants msn???not me... When I type in www.hotmail.com why should I write xxxxx@hotmail.com instead of like yahoo when all I write is my name not @ YAHOO.COM..its pathetic..then i have to go through another hoop and click on email to get to my hotmail.. Tired of all of Microsofts gimmicks... theyre annoying especially when we have to get used to them just to change again... It all defies logic... I am so sick of it.. I wonder if I can scrap this VISTA and replace it with XP? Anyone got any solutions... I cant stop hotmail.. I've had it since before bill gates owned it.. 10 years.. wish i could...
View 9 Replies View RelatedWhenever I delete a message from my inbox, rather than appearing with a line through it, or being sent to the trash folder it gets permanently deleted. This happens whatever options I choose in the advanced IMAP options. Also running Windows Mail as administrator makes no difference (I'm using Vista Ultimate). I get the expected IMAP delete functionality when using the same account with Outlook 2000 and Outlook 2003, so I assume this is a bug in Windows Mail.
View 7 Replies View RelatedInstalling vista x64 took 3 days (unbelievable really!) - and clearly had problems reading / extracting the files from the DVD drive. Vista works completely fine now (normal speed, no bugs-of-significance, with one major exception: The optical drive does not work correctly) The drive is recognised correctly in device manager, there are no reported errors and the drive appears correctly in explorer.
Insert a disc, and the drive sounds like it is struggling to spin up correctly. Explorer takes about 2 minutes to read the volume in. Succeeds, gives the volume name and launches autoplay with the appropriate options (video for a DVD, slideshow for a cd of photos etc. . . ) Try to open to browse the disc, or run a file and the application hangs (e.g. try to browse with explorer, and explorer hangs; try to play a DVD and media player / centre hangs etc.). Killing the programme with task-manager usually works - eventually. The drive has the most recent firmware.
The real kicker is that I've tried two drives in the same machine, with the same error. I've tried the same drives in another (XP Pro) machine, and they work fine. I've even tried installing XP-Pro on the problem machine, and under XP-Pro, the drives work fine. The only thing I can think of is that is there is some kind of compatability issue between the motherboard and Vista x64 - which would affect the optical drive. That said, I have 2x Samsung Spinpoint SATA II drives installed on two other ports, and they work like lightning.

The procedures I've seen refer to moving .dbx files from an XP system rather than an ME sys, is there a different procedure for ME? Can I move just the "sent items" instead of all of the OE5 folders?

View 2 Replies View RelatedWindows Mail's export only works to the local hard drive (heaven knows why). vereything works fine up to that point. Then the last step - copying the export from the hard drive to a removable medium fails. Eg I put the export into a folder on the desktop, but it won't copy to a USB flash stick: it gets started and then hangs - suddenly saying it will take 20+ hours to complete. There is no conceivable space issue. How can I do this last step, which is the key step? Have MS put in a spoiler?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to backup my emails in Win Mail (Vista home premium) - all of them so theres hundreds of them in dozens of folders I have created. So I go file - export - messages, select a format, select an EMPTY folder on my 1TB external drive, then try to export. I either get an error message telling me that some files may be corrupt, or that the destination folder may be too small. Or if I select just a tiny folder to export, it says export successful, but it only exports ONE email - the top one in the list I think? I really dont think I have corrupted files here - any folder I select to export seems to have a problem... as my motherboard is flakey, and I want to do the backup ASAP before it 'flakes' again!

View 5 Replies View Relatedhow to resolve or further debug. I've got a Thinkpad Laptop running Vista x64 Ultimate. I reinstalled the OS ~3 weeks ago and installed my print drivers. I have 2 network printers and I also use doPDF to create PDFs. All of these were working
just fine.
Today they are not printing correctly, but not in a way I can figure out. Applications give me an error saying there is an unknown error or that there is no default printer installed. This happens in Firefox, OpenOffice, Acrobat, Thunderbird and others.
The weird thing is that if I goto control panel and try to print a test page with any of the printers it works fine. In addition, I can print txt files from both Notepad & Wordpad, but still not from Openoffice. So why is it I can print simple txt files & test pages but not from the apps I need to print from. BTW this happens for all the printers I have installed including the 2 network printers, the local PDf printer (doPDF), & the XPS printer. These all worked last time I printed (a few days ago), but not today. What can I do to ideally fix this or at least better debg this?
I have for some time had problems shutting my notebook down. For the first 2 months, it was fine, I had no problems. After than Shutting Down the notebook has became an utter nightmare. It sometimes shutdowns down straight away and other times it will just not shut down correctly. I am then forced to press the power button. I'm not happy having to do that, I want to be able to shut it down correctly. Like I said it doesn't always stop on "Shutting Down" screen but at least 5/10 times it will.

This doesn't have to do with overclocking, but the people here seemed to know a lot about this, and I could not find a better place to ask. I have very low FPS using a NVidia 8800 GTX, which has prompted me to try and figure out why. I am guessing CPU or Ram issues. While testing some thing, I came across CPUz. I installed and ran it, and when I validated I got this: why is FREQ in red? Is my CPU not clocked correctly?

So far, I attempted to fix this problem myself by changing my ICC profile in the color management settings multiple times, even rebooting my pc for some of the changes, as well as uninstalling my monitor drivers, with unsuccessful results. I do not know if this is an issue with my OS, my monitor, or my video card.
Today, I was forced to use my Vista Ultimate installation disc to reinstall Vista - since yesterday morning, my computer was not able to get out of a loop (first going to Windows Error Recovery and then, when selecting any of the options, going to the green loading bar, where it the green bar stopped moving about 2/3 of the way, and going back to Windows Error Recovery).
The installation went smoothly enough, but I am absolutely clueless how to get my computer to roughly the same conditions it was before this fiasco. Fortunately, it would appear that all of my files and folders from before this re-installation have been saved in the folder Windows.old. However, I am at a complete loss as to how to reconfigure my Internet connection, how to restore my previous screen resolution (there are now only three options for resolution under Display Settings), and essentially getting the basics back in order.
For years I have used a financial services website to monitor my investment portfolio (www.moneyextra.com ) For years with Windows XP/IE6 and later with XP/IE7 everything worked (and still works) perfectly. I now have another machine running Vista Home Premium SP1 with IE7 which will not work reliably with this website. When I view my portfolio, some of the web pages are often incomplete - but sometimes they are complete.
I have tried using the MS User Agent String Utility to emulate IE6 but this does not work predictably either. Sometimes when I use this utility the website is incomplete - but when I subsequently open a new browser it is OK. If I close and reopen the browser the fault usually reappears. The behavior is unpredictable......
