I need help importing my old Windows contacts in the Mail application

Windows mail for windows 8

I just want my old windows mail contacts to people or post... I have saved the files to an expansion disc... but can't find how to put the files in the people... where can I find out how to do this?

Hi Ellentavino.

You can't import contacts of the PPP to Win 8 people directly.  However, if you go to http://people.live.com and choose manage it gives you the ability to import Outlook or a CSV file.

Once these contacts are imported - it might take a while but they will eventually be replicated down to the people app in Windows 8.

See you soon.

  • Need help importing CSV file with commas in the rest of the data

    I have a linux script that gets the CSV files from a remote server and import the data into a table using SQLLoader.

    The problem I have is that the data in the CSV files sometimes contains commas in the text field that is interfering with the import and I have no control over what is in the file.

    my table:

    Create the table my_tab
    * (TIME_STAMP date, *)
    REQUEST_IP varchar2 (30),
    User_id varchar2 (30),
    FACILITY_ID VARCHAR2 (255),
    Number SUBFACILITY_ID,
    DETAIL VARCHAR2 (255)

    How can I get around the commas in the text?

    Published by: cinnamon on April 4, 2011 08:07

    There is a way to do it, but it depends on a few assumptions, and (b) you have to jump through hoops to do it.

    First of all, this only works if there is no comma request_id, user_id or facility_id. (if there is, then you're stuck, because there is no way to determine which commas are part of data and those that are separators.)

    Second, he must know if there are any particular character - say | -who never appears in the detail.

    If you can do both of these assumptions, then what you have to do is:
    (1) create an array that consists of a single VARCHAR2 column large enough to hold longer line of your input data.
    (2) to import your data into this table.
    (3) replace the first five commas in each row of the table with. (or whatever your "unused" character).
    For example:

    UPDATE temp_data_table
    SET row_text = REPLACE(SUBSTR(row_text, 1, INSTR(row_text, ',', 1, 5)), ',', '|') || SUBSTR(row_text,  INSTR(row_text, ',', 1, 5) + 1);
    COMMIT;
    

    (4) write a SQL INSERT command to build your target table according to the values separated by the | characters.

  • Need help importing music mp3 file to my windows movie maker

    I've added music files to my films on windows, Director of music from cd that I ripped to my Windows Media Player, never had any problems.

    Today, I bought several songs from Amazon mp3 in order to add to my Windows Movie maker, and they will not import the Windows Movie Maker program.  They play on my Windows Media Player, however, will not import Windows Movie Maker.  The files say they are mp3 files and Windows Movie Maker says he takes these files, however, I get aRED X and the message 'could not be imported'.  Help!  What can I do to get these files to import to my movie on Windows Movie Maker.

    Thank you...

    I put the questions about music and its forum.  I really need help importing MP3 files that I just bought today from Amazon for the sole purpose to add to my movies in Windows Movie maker.

    In the past I have imported music music files that I ripped to CDs.  Now, today, I tried to import music files MP3 to Windows Movie Maker and it will not import files.  I get a message says"could not be imported" and a RED X.  Window Movie Maker, says it accepts MP3 files, but it does not accept these MP3 files.  Help!

    Thank you...

    ======================================
    Movie Maker may have problems of compatibility with MP3
    files... may be worth a try to convert MP3 files
    to WMA before you import into Movie Maker.

    There are many programs that can do conversions...
    The following freeware is an example...:

    (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    Format Factory
    http://www.videohelp.com/tools/Format_Factory (the file you want to download is: > FFSetup260.zip
    (FWIW... installation..., you might want to
    Uncheck the box 'all' boxes on the last screen)

    First, you will need to decompress the file or just open the
    Drag FFSetup260.exe out of the folder
    and drop it on your desktop. To install left click.

    Next, after the download and installation of Format
    Factory... you can open the program and
    left click on the toolbar, the "Option" button and
    "Select an output folder to" / apply / OK.
    (this is where you find your files after they)
    are converted)

    Drag and drop your MP3 clips on the main screen...

    Select "while"WMA"/ OK...

    Click on... Beginning... in the toolbar...

    That should do it...

  • How to disconnect from the Mail application built into Windows 8 Pro

    I think that this old question / thread has been neglected (closed) and went without a good answer.

    Citing the answer of the moderator of this thread.
    "

    Hey jayRads,

    There is no concept sign in email and applications on the Preview version of consumer Messaging. If applications use the credentials you entered in your Windows profile, you will need to disconnect your account under settings of the PC users.

    -Isabelle '.
    and we know that this is not a real answer to the question.

    Since I only have a Local account signed in Windows 8... and when I click on the mail and forced me to Sign In (add account MS)... There should be a disconnect somewhere after I entered my hotmail account. Logically faulty if there is really nowhere to disconnect my hotmail. Even used Credential Manager/ne shows not my signed in accounts.

    NOTE: All I can do is to remove all accounts from the e-mail settings, but it affects all applications (Messaging, people, etc.) which usually isn't my idea of disconnection from Mail only. :(

    I want to just sign out since the Mail application (will also apply to applications that require a signature in) is possible.

    Please enlighten me in this situation.

    Thank you
    Ferdie

    Hi Ferdie Miranda,

    Thank you for choosing windows 8 and we join on our community.

    I understand from the description of the problems, you want to know the way to disconnect from the Mail application in Windows 8.

    Windows 8 Mail app has been designed so that it will keep you in connected mode all the time so that you will be able to check your e-mail without connecting to the Web-based e-mail.

    The steps in the thread you mentioned are quite correct.

    If you want to disconnect, please delete your account.

  • Cannot send attachments photo from the mail application, error: contact service provider

    Original title: Windows 8 will not send message with attached photo using the mail application.

    Whenever I try to send a message with attached photos, it does not.  I get an error message telling me to contact my ISP.  What could be wrong?

    Hi Alex,

    This problem may occur because of in-correct settings in the Mail application.

    Please help me with the following information related to this issue:

    1. E-mail account which you added to the mail application? What is Outlook.com/Hotmail, Yahoo or Gmail?
    2. This problem is specific to a particular attachment? If so, what is the file size of the attachment?
    3. Are you able to successfully send an e-mail without attachments?

    Try to access your e-mail account via web browser and try to send mail with attached photos and check the status.

    If you are able to send mail via webmail, no doubt the issue could be with the mail application.

    I suggest you to run the troubleshooter of app. The apps store is an automated tool that we have developed to deal with a number of known issues that may prevent applications from running correctly.

  • Try to open the mail application crashes internet explorer on Windows 8

    I have windows 8 on my computer, when I try to open the top of page the mail application, it says that if I want to download hotmail, I click Yes and the computer says stop internet Explorer running, close the program, and we let you know if there is a solution and nothing happens.

    Hi Tomas.

    Thanks for posting your concern here at the Microsoft Community forum. I would be grateful if you could answer the following questions:

    1. You use software like Windows mail client live mail?

    2. Remember to make changes on the computer before the show?

    3. What is the exact error / popup you get when you open the mail application?

    If you cannot open Internet Explorer or if it opens briefly and then closes, the problem may be caused by lack of memory, or corrupted or missing system files. Reboot your PC to erase the memory and then open Internet Explorer by itself.
