lost addresses

I lost an a folder in address book by mistake when I deleted everything simply a contact in this folder name. Using Outlook Express 6. Is there a way to get it back... I've looked everywhere!

First, select the hidden files and folders.

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 under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.

Now, do a search for *.wab & wa ~

If you find a usable address book, note the location. Open the address book in OE and file | Import | Address book (wab), point to the address book, you have found.

    Well... that's what you want.

    Open Desktop Manager > backup/restore > advanced.

    On the right will be your BB device. On the left, your computer. If the backup loader does not automatically appear there, click Open (above the left window) and go to where you know that the backup of the charger is located...

    Once it is loaded in the left pane, select the databases on the left and click on the arrow to the right (in the Center) to pass these databses in the unit.

    And follow the remaining instructions...

  • How can I restore lost address and search bars?

    I clicked on something in the search bar options, and the search bar and the url address bar disappeared. So, how to restore the address bar and the search bar?

    Hi jackk1, you need to click right into an empty space in one of the toolbars at the top of your browser window and click on "Navigation Toolbar".

    If you still do not have the address bar or the search bar, you must click right into an empty space as before and click "Customize." You should then find the address bar or the search bar in the new window, and you can drag the this window on the navigation bar. Then close the window 'Customize' and that should be fine.

  • HP Mini 210: Palm Desktop (see 6.2.2) lost address book during and after the upgrade to Windows from December 10

    The problem is not with the HP Mini. This computer is running Windows 7 Starter and he Hotsyncs perfectly with my Tungsten C handheld. The problem is with a Dell Vostro, but because it is a problem of Palm, I hope you can help.

    My Dell Vostro has been upgraded to Windows 10 in September. I had a few problem get the Palm to synchronize at this time, but I thought her and successfully synched bases Memo, address and the Date of all the way up to 10 Windows update that Microsoft pushed around Christmas.

    The first Hot Sync attempt after the update given my address book disappear from desktop ONLY (running version 6.2.2) and I was not able to find a way to restore the address book on the desk.

    Handheld still works fine. As I said the HotSync with the HP Netbook (Windows 7 Starter Edition) and I would like to continue to use it as long as ITO still works.

    Try using the Import/Export built-in in Palm Desktop.

    On the PC that contains the data, go to File/Export (while the address book is open and being viewed).  This will produce a file that you can copy to the Dell PC.  Use a flash drive, Cloud Computing service, card SD - it doesn't matter.

    On the Dell, go to file/import and locate the file.

    Windows 10 has caused some 'quirks' to appear in Palm Desktop.  We learn that we will!

    If it has saved your data, it should be on your PC in the form of file *.ipd.

    Check my documents to your PC first, and if not there, get all of your PCs to "*.ipd" without the quotes.

  • where are the other address books I've had? Now, staff only

    The original PAB was unused, and I had a different address book Yahoo Griffith. I downloaded a lot of data to that. She and one other historical address book disappeared with the last update. I'm totally clogged upward with the lost addresses. Help to find the old book. The reason of personal old serves do not is that he did not follow my sent emails.

    Don't know what you are or do not see.

    When you open the address book window you have the directory pane displayed with your listed address books?

    Directory of display-layout pane light it if it's not show now.

    By default, the personal address book is to add the contacts that you use most. Collected address book is that collecting the addresses of your outgoing messages. This can be changed, but I can't think of a good reason to add all of the addresses starting for the personal book. You can always go through the collected book and move all the important addresses in your main book periodically.

    One last guess, you are missing the sidebar contact in your writing window when you try to create a new email? Press F9 to turn on.

    Define lost. The shortcut icon is missing?

    Right click on the desktop | New | Shortcut. Navigate to "c:\program files\outlook express\msimn.exe". Click next | Click Finish.  It will be a new shortcut on the desktop.

    Outlook and Outlook Express are different programs, so please watch your shortcut.

    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 all a 300 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

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

    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.

    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
    http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

    And backup often.
