  Hi guys, just a message quicky, for various reasons in recent weeks I have had problems with my Microsoft Outlook, which I use for e-mail, etc.. I have created a number of .pst files and would like some advice as to how best to group them into a single pst file.

  Is it possible and how do I proceed.

  This problem is caused by a MS Outlook Add In which prevents closing Outlook. Add in that is usually responsible for cauysing this problem is one that search/indexing of the tool. The remedy is very simple:

  (i) with Outlook open, go to Tools Menu
  (ii) click on "Trust Center".
  (iii) in the left pane, choose Add-Inns, and then near the lower part of the window, you will see a button that allows you to manage your COM Add-Ins.

  (v) select Windows 'Search Email an indexer' and then click 'remove '.
  (vi) click OK, and then close Outlook.
  (vii) re - open Outlook and run the backup. (The program will tell you that Outlook must close the first before saving). Everything should be OK.

• Clogging network Outlook .pst files

  Hi, we have a virtualized environment by which some VDI have been created to accommodate Windows 7 and there is a storage server resides on a different server hardware. The problem is when a user opens Outlook and downloads its .pst file from the storage server (quite large, approximately 500 MB), the rest of the users were almost impossible to download their bandwidth because network is virtually taken over by the first user. Is there a way for Outlook perform a kind of network optimization so as not to create a congestion on the network (perhaps by some sort of file compression, for example)?

  Or if anyone has tried running the storage server on the same server where the rest of the resident VDI? If yes then there is an improvement in this regard?

  Hi Raven,

  Hello

  Windows Mail is unable to import a .pst file if Outlook is installed on the Vista computer. You can install Outlook, copy the PST on the Vista computer, open the .pst with Outlook, then you can import into Windows Mail.

  Here are a few links that tells you how you can import a .pst in Windows Mail.

  Outlook does not import a pst file that is checked on a DVD file.  Says I don't have permission to access the file.  What can get the permission to modify the file archived for read-only?

  Outlook needs read/write access to PST files. Write access is not possible if the file is located on an optical disc.

  Copy the file on your hard disk, and then import it.

• Sky Drive: Want to use Skydrive to backup the files outlook pst (outlook + archives)

  Sky Drive: Would like to use Skydrive to backup my outlook pst files, but they go beyond the 300 MB limit imposed by Sky Drive. Is there a way to get around this?

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  You can upload files to SkyDrive using the loading page standard (if you need to download a few files only) or the bulk load tool (if you need to download a lot of files). Each file you download can be up to 300 MB. If you have installed the application SkyDrive, you can download the files and folders on SkyDrive automatically by copy, move or save them to the SkyDrive folder on your computer. Files that you download this way can be up to 2 GB in size. For more information, you can also consult the links below.

• Problem with restore a PST file after backup Vista

  I always back up my Outlook PST files as all my other documents, by using the standard Windows Vista backup feature.
  When you try to retrieve my documents however (on my new PC after that my old PC was stolen) Restore tool gives an error message saying that the PST file is corrupted or non-existent (while he appears in the backup folder).
  In the end, it seems that the file is restored, and then open the PST file in outlook gives an error message saying that "the file C:\...\.*.pst is not a personal folders file.
  Someone has any advice how to recover my PST file?

• Where is the location of the file Outlook.pst in Windows 7, the AppData folder does not appear in the user specific folder?

  original title: where is the location of the Outlook.pst file in Windows 7?

  I want to copy my Outlook.pst to my desktop (Windows XP Pro) data to my laptop.  Outlook displays the outlook.pst file which will be located in the "C:\Users\Specific User\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook" folder on my laptop.  However, when I try to access this folder in Windows Explorer, the AppData folder does not appear in the user specific folder.  I find in my office because Windows XP does not hide it, but he must hide in the Windows 7 operating system on my laptop.  How can I get it so that I can copy the file outlook.pst from my desktop to my laptop?  If the file is hidden, is there an easier way to copy outlook data from one computer to another?
