Import email from Outlook to Vista Mail: "MAPI not installed on this computer...". »

I'm trying to import my email on a computer with Outlook to my new laptop with Vista Mail.  When I select Import/Outlook, I get the following error message:

"Messages can be imported from the MAPI client.  MAPI is not installed on this computer or an error occurred while initializing it. »

How to tell if MAPI (whatever it is) is installed on my new laptop HP Pavillion?  If it is not installed where can I get it?

Thank you!!

Bart,

Outlook Express must be installed with Windows XP by default.  If you go to Start, then all programs , it should be in the list.  Let us know if you need assistance, but it should be there.

  • Migrate emails from Outlook 2003 to Windows 7 Live Mail - without using OE6

    I upgraded that computer from Vista to Windows 7 64 bit. I have decided to switch from Outlook 2003 to Windows Live Mail, but cannot find a way to export my old mails from Outlook to WinMail. I read it online through Outlook Express 6 as an intermediary, but when I tried, it turns out that you can not install OE6 on a 64-bit computer.

    So I am at a loss. How can I move my old mails from Outlook 2003 to WinMail?

    You are welcome!  Outlook Express is part of Windows XP, so do not install it.  Here are the highlights:

    1. start Outlook, import the .pst file, quit Outlook.
    2. start Outlook Express, import messages from Outlook, close Outlook Express.
    3. copy the Outlook Express store folder in Windows 7.  To find its location, click Tools > Options > maintenance > store folder .
    4. start Windows Live Mail, import messages from the Outlook Express store folder.

    I think that this will pick up all accounts.

  • Transfer emails from outlook 2003 on xp to windows live on Windows 7

    Anyone know how to transfer old emails and contacts in outlook 2003 on xp computer to a new computer using windows live mail on windows 7.  Unit XP will not let me copy the PST to outlook, continued to give me 'path not found' or something like that.  Nothing on the new computer (windows 7) seems to be able to read pst file.

    I don't think that Windows Live Mail would be able to import data from the OL If OL has not been installed on Win7 computer.

    Hello

    Windows XP Service Pack 2 is installed on your computer? To work on this question, see these steps.

    It seems that there is a corruption of dbx file.

    I suggest you go over your messages out of the Inbox, and then create new folders Outbox and sent items after you move the messages you want to save to a local folder that you create.

    Reference:

    (a) click onTools

    (b) thenOptions

    (c) selectMaintenance

    (d) Record Store will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files.

    (e) Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste to start and select run.

    In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden.

    To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders

    Reference:

    (a) clickStart

    (b) Control Panel

    (c) Folder Options icon

    (d) notice, or in Windows Explorer

    (e) Tools

    (f) the Folder Options

    ( viewof g).

    With Outlook Express closed, find the DBX files for the items in the Outbox and sent and delete them. New ones will be created automatically when you open Outlook Express.

    After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.

    Reference:

    (a) clickOutlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open.

    (b) click onthe file

    (c) work offline (or double click working online in the status bar).

    (d) file

    (e) file

    (f) compact all folders. Wait for the compaction to complete.

    General precautions for Outlook Express:

    Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend about a300 MB max for less risk of corruption.

    Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095

    Compact often as specified above.

    Reference:

    (a) in the Tools

    (b) selectOptions

    (c) maintenance:

    (d) uncheck Compact messages in the background and leave it unchecked. (N/a if running XP/SP2).

    And backup often.

    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program.
