Menu help > troubleshooting information, then click on the button display the profile folder. It's the path, which shows in the Explorer.

    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.

  • Why collected addresses included in the personal address since v38

    I used to have collected address book and the personal address book. Since V38, entries in the collected addresses are now in personal addresses as well. I do have duplicates. When I delete an entry for the home address, it is also deleted in the collected addresses if it was in the two places, it should not been, according to the previous version of tuberculosis. Have I missed a new parameter and if not, why the change? It defeats the purpose of having separate addresses.

  • How can I change the default personal address book address book?

    Whenever I click on an email address to email and ask to add to my address book, the contact is added to the personal address book. How to change that so that the new addresses will be added to another book?

    I have the sfhowes undefined as the solution, after a declaration of jestrader as he clicked the button by mistake.

    I don't think that there is a way to define a different default address book. There is a demand for this feature to be added, and it is always open.

    A way around this might be to move all your addresses in other address books and use the personal address book as a contacts inbox. Once from time to time, go through your address book staff, triage, and place each entry in the address book should be in.

I wanted them more at the top of my list I'm went to properties and adds 'z' - the name of the folder to the bottom of the list. Now, I can't see the address books that I have renamed. What happened to them and how to make them come back?

    Excellent news.
    You did exactly the correct changes in the right places.
    You could see that the description of file name for the file .mab was missing - the string was empty and if the actual address book is not in your address book list, even if it still existed in the profile folder.
    Good to hear everything is now sorted.
