Contacts Address book problem
Okay, I did that. Did that create a new .pst file that I have to import my
existing inbox and contacts into? (Sorry, I'm hesitant to experiment too much for fear of screwing something else up. ) "Vince Averello" wrote: I think you need to create a fresh profile in the Control Panel's Mail applet to deal with the issue you're having... "Carol" wrote in message ... My address book is not associated with my contacts. I have tried all of the solutions I can find and none will work. Here are my specifics: In the Address Books tab of the Account Settings box, Outlook Address Book (type = MAPI) is listed. I cannot remove it as that option is dimmed. I also cannot add a new one as it already exists. If I select the Change option there, it is not listed. In the Outlook Address Book tab of the Contacts Properties box, "Show this folder as an e-mail Address Book" is also dimmed. In my Contacts view, I have three versions of the Contacts folder. They all appear to be the same (same size). How can I reassociate my address book with my Contacts? (If this is a clue, I believe I enabled Business Contact Manager after I had been using Outlook 2007 for a while.) Thanks very much!

You could just use your existing one instead of creating/copying/importing.

P.S. I did not enable Business Contact Manager with the new profile.

In the Control Panel Mail applet Data Files tab add the old PST then set
it as the default. "Carol" wrote in message ... sorry i'm being dense. i now have new mail inbox items in the new profile and none of my old folders, mail, contacts, etc.
