Tip 499: Windows Easy Transfer

Apr-29-2008 By admin

If you are thinking about using Windows Easy Transfer to quickly and easily move program settings to your new computer, think again if you plan to use it to move your Outlook account configuration. More often than not you’ll end up with a corrupt profile and will need to make a new profile.


If you forgo the easy transfer wizard, you can move the *.pst, *.nk2 and other support files yourself. The file locations are listed here: http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/filepath.htm

Thanks

Web-browsing, email, and computer games I use 3 times a week.

Tip 498: Missing Contacts

Apr-28-2008 By admin

When you have Contacts in the Contacts folder but they are not accessible when you click on the To button, you need to check these settings:
 
Make sure the Contact folder is enabled as an email address book. Right click the Contacts folder, choose Properties then Outlook Address Book. Is the box to enable as email address book is checked?
 
If this is grayed out and you use an older version of Outlook, go to Tools, Email Accounts, choose View or change existing directories or address book. Is the Outlook Address Book present? If it isn’t listed, add it and close and restart Outlook.  If it is listed, then remove it and close then restart Outlook and repeat these steps to add it.
 
If you use Outlook 2007 you can’t remove just the Outlook Address book service, you need to remove the email account from your profile and recreate it. In many cases, removing the account and recreating it will fix the problem, but in a few cases you will need to make a new profile.
 
To remove the email account, close Outlook. Go to Window’s Control Panel and find the Mail applet (use Control panel’s Classic view) and remove the account from your profile, then add it back. Restart Outlook. If the address book is still missing, close Outlook and go back to the Mail applet and make a new profile.

Tip 497: Did it help?

Apr-23-2008 By admin

Always do the feedback questionnaire if an article on the Microsoft website is unclear or missing info. They do read these comments and while they may not edit an article on just one bad report, they will attempt to make it easier to understand once they get a few “it didn’t help” comments. Don’t just say “this didn’t help.” Or “it’s wrong” tell them why it didn’t help or was hard to understand.
 
They also like praise if it helped, but it’s very important that they know when the articles don’t help so they can fix them.
 
While the same advice should apply to any website that has a feedback questionnaire on each page, I know the appropriate persons at Microsoft read these comments and will rework the article if it’s not helping their users.

Tip 496: Hotmail HTTP Support

Apr-22-2008 By admin

HTTP access to Hotmail will be ending June 30, 2008. While the following article is specific to Outlook Express, Outlook also uses WebDAV when it uses the HTTP protocol. Users will need to install the Outlook connector for Outlook 2003/2007 or use Windows Live Mail client if they want to continue to use an email client with Hotmail.
