Default activites tab

I copied the .pst file that was working when it was in the subfolder. I just
ran detect and repair on the moved file and it didn't resolve the problem.

So I suppose you thought we didn't need to know any of that other
information and could just magically fix your problem? You never import and
export Outlook data unless you want to lose or corrupt it.
Did you back up your data file before you started following this misguided
advice? Did you even try to repair the file?

I was having trouble syncing Outlook with my new phone so the phone tech
was
having me do lots of importing and exporting of my Outlook file. After I
finished with them I came across this problem but I was able to fix it in
the
subfolder. I have no idea how I fixed it I did so many things.
I created a new profile with the .pst file I copied before I moved it and
had the same problem. I have been hesitate to try other procedures because
I
don't want to do any permanent damage to the data file.

There's still something missing here. Why did you need to move these
Contacts? Have you tried any of the routine maintenance procedures like
repairing your data file, resetting your views, or creating a new
profile?

I highlighted all the contacts (Alt-A) in the subfolder and then dragged
them
onto the main contacts folder. I reset the activities in the main
contacts
folder by by "Right-click on the folder, click Properties, and then on
the
Activities tab click the Reset button."

Sounds like there's more to this story. How did you move these
Contacts?
How
are you resetting the Activities?

news I moved all my contacts from a subfolder to the main contacts folder.
Now
when I click on the activities tab I get the following message:
"Outlook
cannot display this view. You need to reset your folder group.
Right-click
on
the folder, click Properties, and then on the Activities tab click
the
Reset
button. The operation cannot be performed because the object has
been
deleted." I followed the directions but I still get the same error
message.
How do I fix this?
