When I initially downloaded itunes, my cd drive disappeared. I found a link to a fix online, and it did fix it. Well I have installed an update to itunes, and now it shows it is there, but it will not import or rip cds. I have windows vista 32 bit.
View 5 RepliesIs it possible to import directly from an Outlook data file (.pst)? The wizard seems to only work if you have an active installation, which I do not after upgrading from XP to Vista 64 (along with a new motherboard, processor and memory). I had the older version of Office Home and Student that came with Outlook, but Office 2007 Home & Student does not.
View 5 Replies View RelatedMy old PC had Outlook (or Outlook Express) and I saved off the emails by selecting them all and dragging them to a folder on my network. Doing this creates an msg file for each email. Now, like I've done many times in the past, I would like to import them into the emailprogram of a new laptop. So I dragged the msg files into Vista Windows Mail and instead of importing the messages it creates a brand new email with these msg files as attachments! The only reason I save email in this manner is because Microsoft really dropped the ball when it came to transferring email from one PC to another. I forget which it was but either Outlook or Outlook Express was so bad it was a disaster. This method always worked so this is what I've decided to do. Now it looks like Microsoft's found a way to f*** this up too.

View 4 Replies View RelatedRunning Outlook 2003 on Vista Business. Have copied outlook express folder from old PC to C: on Vista. Import says "Cannot open mail folder". I imported into Windows Mail so it isn't a security problem, as the folder and all subfolders/files are owned by the user who has full control of the folder and files. What can the problem be? Is it because there is no email acount set up as yet?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm running Vista home premium 64bit. New computer, new operating system I wanted to import some pics from my camera (nikon D300) and noticed that there is no longer a "camera, photo, scanner wizard" like XP had. I decided to try and use the windows live photo gallery. I picked the groups I wanted to copy off of my camera. Gave them a name or tag. Went to import options and choose my writable drive to import them to. I get this box: options/import options: you cannot import to this folder. Choose another location. I have tried both a CD / DVD, and I know there is room. I went into windows explorer and manually copied the pics to the writable drive so I know its working. So my question is: Why wont Windows live photo gallery let me save my photo's off of my camera to my writable drive?

I was using Outlook Express on my XP machine until it died, so I switched
everything to my Vista laptop which has Microsoft Mail. It seems just about
the same, but all the emails and contacts are now separate files rather than
the old MDX format. I found some software that can be purchased that will
extract the emails into the new EML format, but I would think Microsoft
would have a built-in or freely available utility to do this, since both are
their products and included in the OS. Can I also install OE on my Vista
computer and then save emails as EML?
I am trying to import some folders into Windows mail and keep getting 'not responding' even after waiting. I get the selection for Windows Mail 7, then Browse to get my files but then 'next' doesn't proceed. I have Vista.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have windows xp pro and vista on my computer. I find I like OE 6.0 on my xp pro to be much faster than windows mail, and I need to switch to windows mail. Unfortunately, i have several accounts on windows mail, and I have forgotten their passwords. So I exported each account in windows mail, and have saved the internet account settings (in *.iaf files). When I use the import function in OE 6.0 (Tools->accounts->Import), it won't let me import any account settings. I don't remember the passwords of a few of those accounts (which currently work with windows mail), but I need to create such accounts in OE 6.0. Is there a way I can migrate account settings in windows mail to OE 6.0?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI am trying to import my Outlook Contacts into the Vista Contacts folder. Many of the Outlook Contacts have extended characters, e.g. ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, etc. The CSV file that I created from Outlook correctly displays the accented letters and the Spanish "?" but when I import the contacts into Vista Contacts, they display as gibberish.
Importing a vCard works but I have hundreds of contacts and I haven't been able to save all of them as a single file. Saving and importing them one at a time would take hours. How does one import contacts with Spanish and French names?
I don't even know which thread to post it in. My computer's motherboard died so I was forced to buy a new machine. The new machine runs Vista. The old machine ran XP. I've added the old hard drive with the XP O/S to the new computer as a secondary drive. I'm trying to get all my old settings, desktop, favorites, etc. to the Vista environment. How do I do this? Here's what I've tried to do and failed:
1) Boot from old drive. Get's BSOD.
2) Add old drive to working XP machine on network in order to transfer settings and file. Drive won't boot computer. Gets hung up on AGP driver that temp machine doesn't use.
3) Copied old XP OS to new partition on new machine to run a repair XP install. XP disks won't install on newer version.
Here's what I have to work with: Vista OS on main HDD, XP OS on old drive installed on new machine, XP OS copied onto new drive partition within same machine, and a newly formatted external hard drive. I understand the need to reinstall the programs. What can I do to save all that information that was hidden in the XP registry?
Our new computer vista home premium, I use windows mail as e-mail (no outlook avaible because I only have Office home/studend edition). On old computer (windows xp) I used Outlook, I copied al my e-mails to an external harddisk, so now I try to open the mail (on ex. harddisk) and can't open them because they are all msg files (?) I searched every where if it is possible to open these files. If I change the extension to open them (e.g. word etc.) it is still abacadabra for me. Maybe I had to change the extension of the e-mails before I copied them to ex.harddisk??? Old computer is gone already so I have a "problem" now. I don't know I this is the right communitie

View 9 Replies View RelatedMy questions are does Vista need to have a User name/ documents / favorites folder? And a User name/ favorites folder?
I had a problem importing favorites from my win XP IE 7 via a flash drive,( not a valid bookmark file error ) and after upgrading to IE 8, uninstalling IE 8 and reverting back to IE 7 I got my favorites into the User Name non documents folder.
I deleted the favs folder in documents which showed it as empty. Now I cannot re import my favs again from the flash drive.
I am trying to avoid the whole process of installing IE 8 and reverting to 7 again and I think I did some stupid deleting.
Can I just create a documents /folder name favorites and hope that IE will import form there? If so I tried it and got an error ( incomplete URL ).
My digital camera is a Kodak Easyshare and it takes video in .mov format and i have been using windows movie maker, it allows me to import that format fine. Been working on some video projects and I should have finished the project, before i reformatted my system, but thats in the past and this is now. (I learned my lesson)
after i reformatted and put vista back on, i tried importing and playing the video files in windows movie maker and the video will play ok, but i have no sound. I drag it to the timeline and expand the video to show the audio and the audio doesn't show up. I can play other sound files ok, it just wont play sound from .mov formats. I tried playing the video in quicktime and it plays fine with sound too. I tried another video editing software and it plays fine too. I am working on getting another video editing software, but for now, i will just use what i got, but i got nothing now. If someone could help that would be great.
I tried Windows Live movie maker, which btw, is really ugly, it doesnt even have a timeline, how can you edit videos without a timeline? anyways...i tried the video and it plays, but still no sound. I am thinking that there was a codec that was installed before, but i am not sure what that is. Is there a way to find out what codecs you should have or does it depend on what the user has installed and customized system?....
