Click on the button to the right on the home Ribbon tab, and then select sign out of Windows Live Mail. Wait a few minutes, then check to see if your contacts have reappeared. If they are not, click again on the button and sign in with your own Microsoft Account.

  • Windows Live Mail - import contacts very slow

    Import contacts Windows Live Mail is very very ssssloooooooooowwwww.

    I am importing approximately 2300 contacts from a CSV file created using the WLM on the same computer export function, until I had to do a complete Windows re - install. The export function created the file quickly enough. Importation is happening now for 15 hours and has just exceeded 2000 contacts so I guess there are still a few hours or more.

    It's pretty extreme and ridiculous! Am I doing something wrong or missed something? In the previous mail clients such as Outlook Express and Outlook, this task took a few seconds.  It looks like a huge not backward, even a computer in the era of steam dispose of such a simple and banal mission without imposing its only megabytes of ram.

  • List of e-mail in Windows Live Mail 2012 contacts

    When you try to send an email to an existing contact, I get the message 'none of your contacts that have an e-mail address defined. Please tell me how to retrieve the list of contacts.

    Is this something that happened all of a sudden? Or if your contacts have never had e-mail addresses? Where they come from?

    Switch to the contacts window (press Ctrl-3 or click on the third icon at the foot of the folders pane). Select consider as > list and deselect Preview. You can now organize the table to respond to right click on the column headings to add, change, or delete columns. Implemented so that you can see at least name, personal e-mail, work email and another email. If there is a contact without entries in the columns of mail , double-click the contact to open the Edit the Contact dialog. Check all pages of dialogue to see if any e-mail address has been moved.

  • Windows Live Mail 2011: contact lists

    It seems that I have two separate and distinct lists of Contacts 2: when NOT connected; another when I AM connected.  What is going on?

    In addition, what is the importance of sign or not sign?

    Jack, Mevorach, Esq.

    It seems that I have two separate and distinct lists of Contacts 2: when NOT connected; another when I AM connected.

    It's true. If you connect, you see the calendar and the default contacts list. If you sign, you will see the contacts and calendar associated with the Microsoft Account sign in to help and any changes made locally will be reflected on the web and vice versa. This makes it possible to access your contacts and calendar from any computer with an Internet connection, by visiting contacts.live.com and calendar.live.com respectively.

    ... What is the meaning of signing or not signing?

    Signature determines which list of contacts and the calendar to load. It also makes it possible to send photo emails, which avoids clogging mailboxes and e-mail channels to the letters by uploading images to a file hosting site.

    Many users find it convenient to use a list of contacts and calendar for business and other private purposes. I Accounts different Microsoft for various purposes and you just connect with those suitable for the tasks that I am doing at the moment. I find it very comforting to know that my contact list is saved safely on a secure server, somewhere, in case anything should happen to my computer.

  • How can I import groups of Windows Mail contacts in Windows Live Mail?

    I work in a small office where we have computers running Windows Vista and using Windows Mail (version 6.0.6000.16388).  We have hundreds of contacts and a few contact groups on these computers.

    A few months ago, we got two new computers running Windows XP and Windows Live mail (version 2009, version 14.0.8089.0726).  Other computers at the office always have Vista and the other version of Windows Mail.

    I was able to export our hundreds of contacts and import them into Windows Live Mail for new computers have all the contacts... but I was unable to find a way to import groups.

    These groups are all very large and comprise mostly/entirely out of contacts that do not have individual contact entries.

    I've been Googling for a solution to this problem.  The page nearest you, that I could find was this:

    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/3818-Windows-Live-Mail-import-Vista-contacts-contact-groups.html

    I was very discouraged when I saw the big red warning to the top of the page:

    ---------------
    In the Groups of Contact with Vista, only contacts who are also included as normal Contacts will be imported into Windows Live Mail. Contacts that have been created for the Contact Group only will not be imported into Windows Live Mail. You will need to write these down and add them manually in Windows Live Mail.
    ---------------

    This pretty much described my situation exactly, but manually going through all groups, write all contacts, and then import them manually into two separate machines should always and is simply not an option.

    Are there really no other way I can get these groups into Windows Live Mail?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you very much!

    I have not actually tried this, but I think this method will work.

    1. get a free Live ID (or @hotmail.com or @live.com).

    2. install Windows Live Mail on Vista computer. During the installation, it will offer to signature with a Live ID. Do.

    3. the first performance of Windows Live Mail, it will be important to all contacts from Windows Mail. Give him enough time to synchronize all contacts with the web version of this Live ID.

    4. open Windows Live Mail on the new computer and then connect with the same Live ID. The automatic synchronization process will transfer in all contacts of the web version of this Live ID.
