How to recover Contacts and former e-mail records after changinf Win 7 32 bit to Win 7 64 bit?

Before I loaded Window 7 64 bit, I saved all my data files into Windows.old and that the file is still there. I know may Contacts and notes folders/old E-mail (Outlook.pst) are in the Windows.old folder. Can I import or directly replace the new files created so I don't have to manually enter the information this old? How can I do?

You can, but you need to hurry: the Windows.old folder automatically deletes itself after awhile.  It is not supposed to be a backup.

Basically you can just go to the folder and find (or search) to your PST file.  Open your Outlook and choose file > import to get imported old PST data.

    Original title: data recovery

    Is there a program that will allow me to recover programs and files that have been written too by a full system restore?  I had to do a complete system restore, because the computer has been locked up in a start of the closed loop cycle.

    Hi Apmech9,

    1. don't you restore the computer to factory settings?
    2. do you just restore the computer to an earlier time by using the system restore feature in Windows XP?

    If you restore the computer to its factory settings, you will then get in touch with the manufacturer of the system for more support options.

    If you had just restored the computer to an earlier time using System Restore, you can undo the system restore to revert back the changes.

  • How to delete contacts on my iPhone double 5 after system update?

    How can I remove duplicate contacts from the iPhone to my and my husband 5 after update to version 9.21?

    If you synchronize your Contacts via iCloud, the best way to remove duplicates is via the Contacts on your Mac application. The Contacts open, then under the map in the main menu option, select "Look for duplicates. Allows you to remove them quickly, and they must push the info updated for your devices. If she does not push it back, then on your device, go to settings > iCloud and turn off the Contacts and then turn on again.

    I found that my Mac showed a duplicate of almost all contacts, I had. Once I did the above, they are all cleared up.

    See you soon,.

  • Recover Contacts and emails of crushed Vista/Windows mail by car

    I was using a laptop with Vista and Windows Mail.  The laptop is dead, but I was able to recover the hard disk and connect to another computer via the usb port.  The intermediate computer has XP and Outlook Express or Windows Mail options.  How can I recover my emails and contacts I used in Windows Mail?  In the past when I change computers I export and import the new email client.  Because I can't open Windows Mail, I don't have this option.

    Thanks for your suggestions.

    Any questions about WLM should be asked in the forum dedicated to www.windowslivehelp.com you can ask about contacts there also.

    I don't use it.

  • How to import contacts and calendar to the iphone

    No outlook on the computer to work with the company so no outlook trying to set up email on laptop and import my contacts from my iphone. is this possible?

    I'm not aware in a direct way, but here's what I did for the other way - from Win Mail to the phone.

    • If you do not already have a Gmail account, create one (it's just a temporary tool for this process).
    • Configure the iphone for the gmail account and synchronize it. This should sync your contacts.
    • Since you google.com interface: export your contacts (unfortunately it only supports CSV format).
    • In Thunderbird, import your contacts

    If you need help importing your contacts, I have step by step instructions I can give you.
    Let me know how it goes.
