• Import contacts from Outlook Express to Windows Live Mail

  I just bought a new Dell computer and it has Windows 7.  My old computer has Windows XP.  Can I import my list of contacts from Outlook Express to Windows Live Mail and, if so, how can I go about it?

  I selected files, folders and search under the heading Windows as I couldn't see Windows Live Mail in the list of topics.

  Thank you.

  Open the address book in OE and file | Export | Address book (wab) and save it to the desktop. Copy it to a flash drive. Place it on the desktop or another location on the computer using WLMail.
   
  For WLMail 2009: Open list of Contacts in WLMail, (go |) Contacts in the Menu bar) and the file | Import | Address book (wab) Windows and the point where you saved it.
   
  For WLMail 2011: Switch to the contacts window (click on the book icon to the address at the foot of the folders pane, or press Ctrl-3). Click on the import button, select address book (wab) Windows and point on where it was saved.
   
  Note: If you use a CD or a DVD instead of a flash drive, after placing on the new machine you must remove the read-only attribute in the properties before you import.

• Group in Windows Live Mail email

  Found a very frustrating problem with WLM on my new Windows 7 implemented.   I've set up several groups within my contact list.  When I send an email not all people are sent to the email, but still when I go back to my group to see its members, everyone is in the list.  Now, I am gun shy and have to go back & re-check my e-mails to ensure that somebody didn't get the message.   Help!

• Unable to send e-mail to groups in Windows Live Mail

  * Original title: send 1 e-mail to the list of contacts (Group)

  I have Windows Live Mail and have made a group list of 159 names (on more than 1000 in my Contact list).  At least this is what I think that I did.

  I would like to send a bcc these 159 people without clicking each name individually.  I guess that there is a way to click on this group of 159 easily

  in the Bcc box, but I don't know how.

  Help!  Thank you!

  Hello Polly,

  Thanks for posting in Microsoft Communities. I apologize for the delay
  response and thank you for your time and patience.

  According to the description, I understand that you have created a group of 159 contacts and all by sending an e-mail with attachments, it is located in the folder Outbox for hours. Manipulate later you settings in the e-mail message.

  E-mail contacts can be saved as a group and sent both without selecting each contact individually. You can give a name to the Group and when you send an e-mail, you just type the name of the group in the field that you created. It's what we call a group name.

  To resolve this issue I suggest you uninstall and reinstall Windows Live
  Essentials.

  Note: Under uninstall Windows live essentials, make sure
  that you remember your settings and e-mail IDs.

  1. press Windows + C to open the bar of charms.
  2. click on the search icon.
  3 type of control panel and press ENTER.
  4. in the Control Panel, under
  Programs, click on uninstall a program.
  5 look for Windows Live Essentials,
  Right-click on it and select uninstall.
  6. once the uninstall
  full restart the computer.
  7 re - install Windows live essentials of the
  link http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-live/essentials
  8. After installing windows live essentials, go to press Windows + C to open
  the bar of charms.
  9. click on the search icon.
  10. type Windows Live Mail
  and press ENTER.
  11. configure the e-mail settings.
  12. after the account e-mail
  is added, go to the Contacts tab in the left pane of the bottom.
  13. Peek for the
  the group you created.
  14 right-click on it and rename to a name
  you prefer.
  15. click on Mail on the low left hand
  pane.
  16 try to send a test e-mail to the group to just the name of the
  the group that you had put into the field and send it.

  Please check if it works and response with the status.

• How can I import groups of Windows Mail contacts in Windows Live Mail?

  I work in a small office where we have computers running Windows Vista and using Windows Mail (version 6.0.6000.16388).  We have hundreds of contacts and a few contact groups on these computers.

  A few months ago, we got two new computers running Windows XP and Windows Live mail (version 2009, version 14.0.8089.0726).  Other computers at the office always have Vista and the other version of Windows Mail.

  I was able to export our hundreds of contacts and import them into Windows Live Mail for new computers have all the contacts... but I was unable to find a way to import groups.

  These groups are all very large and comprise mostly/entirely out of contacts that do not have individual contact entries.

  I've been Googling for a solution to this problem.  The page nearest you, that I could find was this:

  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/3818-Windows-Live-Mail-import-Vista-contacts-contact-groups.html

  I was very discouraged when I saw the big red warning to the top of the page:

  ---------------
  In the Groups of Contact with Vista, only contacts who are also included as normal Contacts will be imported into Windows Live Mail. Contacts that have been created for the Contact Group only will not be imported into Windows Live Mail. You will need to write these down and add them manually in Windows Live Mail.
  ---------------

  This pretty much described my situation exactly, but manually going through all groups, write all contacts, and then import them manually into two separate machines should always and is simply not an option.

  Are there really no other way I can get these groups into Windows Live Mail?

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you very much!

  I have not actually tried this, but I think this method will work.

  1. get a free Live ID (or @hotmail.com or @live.com).

  2. install Windows Live Mail on Vista computer. During the installation, it will offer to signature with a Live ID. Do.

  3. the first performance of Windows Live Mail, it will be important to all contacts from Windows Mail. Give him enough time to synchronize all contacts with the web version of this Live ID.

  4. open Windows Live Mail on the new computer and then connect with the same Live ID. The automatic synchronization process will transfer in all contacts of the web version of this Live ID.

• Windows Live Mail Contacts problem...

  Hello...

  I could use some help.  : )

  Background: I installed Windows Live Mail on your laptop Windows 8.1.  Apparently somewhere during the process of adding additional e-mail accounts - Gmail account more specifically he asked do you want to include contacts.  I said yes!  Error!  It resulted in each contact showing 2 times on my Windows 7 laptop running Windows Live.

  Question: I have now each contact in my list of contacts twice.  It says 'address book' under the name and can be edited.  The other has no indication, and my best guess is that it's the Gmail account contact.

  That's what I see on laptops respective...  1.) 8.1 portable Windows - people shows only 1 time contact.  (2.) for laptop Windows 7 - Windows Live shows each 2 times contact

  Tried: 1) software, Windows Live has two contacts.  2.), remove all contacts in Gmail, Windows Live still has these two contacts.

  I'm at a lost how do I solve this problem...  Thanks for your help.

  I do not believe that your explanation of how this happened is quite accurate. If you add an e-mail account in Windows Live Mail, there is no question of whether contacts should be included - email and contacts are completely separate processes in Windows Live Mail.

  If you see contacts in Windows Live Mail, which are not ' of address book ", then you must be signed in to Windows Live Mail with a Microsoft Account (which could be your Gmail account). If this account is connected to Google, Google contacts will eventually synchronize with Windows Live Mail. You cannot change these contacts in Windows Live Mail.

  To break the connection, click on the rightmost button on the home Ribbon tab and select view account information. Sign in to your account again, and then click permissions.
   
  1. click on services and applications Manage.
  2. click on Edit in the connected Google service you want to remove from your account
  3. click on remove this connection completely.
  4. click on Remove.

  Back in Windows Live Mail. Click again on the button to the right and select sign out of Windows Live Mail. Wait a few minutes, and then click New and connect. Check your list of contacts.

• How to import Windows Live Mail storage folders in Thunderbird

  I am trying to import the .eml files that I have in storage files in WLM in Thunderbird. Of the help section on Thunderbird:

  Windows Mail (.eml files) in Thunderbird import is enabled by ImportExport third-party add-on tools. Download and install this add-on to transfer messages from Windows Live Mail into Thunderbird.

  However, import Tools is an as file and my computer (Windows 7) cannot open it. Although I found an online program that convert into something readable, my software virus identified the program as malware. Does anyone know a way to safely convert a file as something Windows can recognize and run?

  Or y at - it another way to get this add-on to run?

  You should have a new tab under tools at the bottom that says "import/export - tools".
  You can watch modules / Modules to see if
  ImportExportTools is installed and activated. The choice of installation it is probably fine as it is.

• Conflict between the settings of the computer and Windows Live Mail

  I have a conflict between my computer settings, Windows Live Mail and Windows Live Hotmail/Calendar.  When the computers ' regional and Language Options | Date - short Date Format"settings are set to"dd-MMM-yy"is in conflict with the Windows Live Mail and Windows Live Hotmail/Calendar 'date of birth and birthday' date formats.  Whenever a date is placed in the Windows Live Mail "birth date and birthday" field the date in the field becomes "mm/dd/yy" which generates a conflict in date format.  Enter "mm/dd/yyyy" in the date field of "birth date and birthday" in Windows Live Mail when your computer settings are set to "dd-MMM-yy" and Windows Live Mail passes the numbers 'mm and JJ '.  Is there a solution?  I'd like to see dd-MMM-yy on my computer.

• Windows live mail not stop 'download' of new messages.

  Hello, I am running windows 7 on a samsumg RC512. I use windows live mail to check the corporate e-mail. The e-mail account is a pop account. Any time that I start direct mail it will download new messages and send those coming out. Then it starts to 'download' an infinite number of new messages that actually do not exist. It does not overload the machine or anything like that. Just like that until I hit the stop button. Problem is that if I do not have this message that I need to send will not be delivered, because it keeps doing this download new message loop. I tried unistalling the AVG antivirus and backup program (11 Cobian), nothing works. The account settings are ok and I don't know what to do here. I appreciate anyhelp thanks!

  You can back up your messages and contacts before you uninstall / remove Windows Live Mail. Refer to the post of Raphael_S of this link.

  Let us know how it goes.

  Thank you.
