LIVE MAIL ISSUE: a folder cannot be moved from one account to another

18. July 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: default account, storage accounts, storage folders

I have transferred my Vista live mail to Windows 7 laptop.

I have 3 accounts and 3 storage folders, one for each account. But it appears Account A is the default for all 3 storage accounts because when I try to reply to a message stored in Storage Account B, Account A is the default account used but I want it to be Account B. Same with when I try to reply to a message stored in Storage Account C, Account A is the default account used but I want it to be Account C.

Of course, if the message stays in Accounts, the default reply account for each one is appropriate - it just happens when I reply from the storage ones.

When I tried to move Storage Account B to Account B, I got the above error message. Appreciate any help - thank you.

Unable to access storage folders on new profile

27. May 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: storage folder, storage folders, Windows Live Mail

My profile on Windows 7 crashed and I created a new profile. I was using Windows Live Mail and had to reinstall the same on the new profile. I copied the storage folder (alongwith subfolders) from the old location C:\Users\<login name>AppData\Local\Microsoft\ and put it under the same path in the new login name but it does not shw up once I open Windows Live Mail.

Why do my storage folders change all my stored emails to just one email?

03. May 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: storage folder, storage folders

Say I have a storage folder marked Dad, where I store all the emails my father has sent me. Later I go there to pull up an old email where he sent me an attached picture. Every email I stored there in this folder is the same. All the other information is gone. All my storage folders are the same. They have many stored folders, but they are all the same within the folder? How do I fix this? No Error messages. Windows 7 64 bit. Explorer - Windows Live Mail. Yes it worked prior. Fairly new computer I built and the only changes made were the Windows Updates that Microsoft sent me.

Cannot incorporate my old storage folders into my W7 version

26. April 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: storage folders, Windows Live Mail, Windows Live Mail storage

I have successfully migrated from XP to W7 by first installing W7 on a separate partition on my computer. I then re-installed my programs andmigrated all of my files to the new partition, That is, everything except my Windows Live Mail storage folders. Now I'm stuck. I have Windows Live Mail working in both operating systems, but cannot incorporate my old storage folders into my W7 version. I want to now remove the XP partition, but have to keep it just to access my old Email files.

Original Title: How can I move these valuable files from one partition to another?

restoring deleted storage folders in live mail

04. April 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: previous version, storage folders, Windows Live Mail

I followed the instructions given to AnitaWolfe and was able to recover a previous version of my deleted folders. However, when I copied them into Windows Live Mail and clicked on them, I got the message "There is no item in this view".

I had restored them to my Desktop before I copied them in WLM and when I click on the folders on the Desktop, the messages are there but show in codes until I actually click on each individual message. Is there something that can be done to bring the messages in WLM and see the messages as they should appear.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Merging email storage folders

24. March 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: storage folder, storage folders

By mistake, I have 2 email storage folders I need to merge. (I don't use the default email storage folder.) One is recent emails, the other is older ones. Both have the emails divided among the same few dozen folders within the overall storage folder.

How can I merge the 2 storage folders with the least likelihood of badly scrambling the folders within them?
