Trouble importing .pst file to new computer
Bought a new computer and am trying to import my Outlook Contacts and In Box.
I have saved as a .pst file on a CD. However, when I try to import on new computer I get the following message: File access is denied. You do not have the permission required to access the file D:\contents backup.pst. Can anyone help me with this problem? Thank you. DC

Trouble importing .pst file to new computer
1. Never Import - Open using Outlook File-Open.
2. Copy the file to your hard drive and remove the read-only attribute from its properties. -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.

Trouble importing .pst file to new computer
Yes save the file to your hard drive first. However I have just been advised
by an MVP that it is better to open your backup in Outlook then copy or move your data as errors can occur when importing. Please see the answer to my question below your titled "+" plus sign. -- Michele "DC" wrote: Bought a new computer and am trying to import my Outlook Contacts and In Box.
