Lost Folders created in Windows Live Mail

12. May 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: , ,

I created a folder in Windows Live Mail with about six subfolders.

I was able to use these folders daily for about two years.

I was able to export and import them between my laptop and desktop computers.

They behaved exactly as the folders provided with the original equipment (Dell Inspiron 1545).

After some two years of constant, daily  use, the main folder simply disappeared with all its subfolders (along with two years of work).

I have read the saved threads with this same title to no avail.

Can you help?

Shared Contacts – available when disconnected from network?

12. March 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , ,

Hello,

In our office most people work off of desktop computers but one user is working from a laptop.

We'd like to use Shared Contacts (through granting permissions and opening each other's Address Book on our respective stations).

If the laptop user is on the network, opens everybody's Address Book, and then disconnects from the network, does the laptop's Outlook "remember" all the Contacts? E.g. if the user goes on a trip, can they still view the Contact from a different user's Address Book?

Thank you!

I have had desktop computers for over 30 years and the present model runs well on Windows 8 and Windows Live Mail is great.  On my laptop I recently upgraded the OS ( also to Windows 8 ) and after installing Windows Live Mail I can receive Emails on that machine but I cannot send them. Also I do not get the usual list of Contacts and the Calendar is empty.

 

I was getting some feedback which suggested that I might not have entered the information about my servers correctly, but I could not find any written record of that and I do not seem to have access to the information on my desktop. I would like to get the laptop to respond to my log-ins in the same way as my desktop does.  Before I install Windows Live Mail again could anyone please explain where, on the desktop, I can find the required information ?  The drop-down link to accounts only seems to be concerned with new accounts, and not with existing ones. Many thanks.

I am unable to send emails using Windows Live Mail. Also I do not get the usual list of Contacts and the Calendar is empty.
