Default Transferring Outlook 2007 data file to new computer

I have a huge problem. I installed Outlook 2007 on my desktop, and my
old data (calendar, tasks, inbox, etc.) transferred over just fine.

I installed 2007 on my laptop and that is where the problem lies.
Only my email messages came up. My calendar, tasks, contacts, etc.,
are gone. I tried transferring the pst file many times using a thumb
drive. After the transfer to the laptop I checked the file to make
sure all of the files transferred over. Everything check's out, but
still after selecting the new outlook that I transferred from the
desktop, I can only see my email messages. Everything else is gone.
Is there something I need to do different?

Yes. You need to find and transfer the correct data file.
