I just recently synchronized my contacts using outlook express, and I want to be able to view the phone contacts on the computer, how could I do that? I can't restore the phone then back it up on my computer because I'm on using windows XP and I cannot update my iTunes and thus I can't synchronize my phone back so I lost all my important work contacts and I'm just wondering if I can somehow access it on the computer

How to transfer all emails and contacts from Outlook Express to Outlook 2010

I have just done this and believe me it was a bit of a marathon! Microsoft tell you that you need to have both Outlook Express and Outlook 2010 running on the same machine. If, like me, your Outlook 2010 in running on a Windows 7 platform there is a problem.
Until now I have been using Outlook Express on a Desktop running XP Pro. It has Outlook 2007 but it won’t run owing to a corrupted file. I set up my email account on an old XP laptop which has Outlook 2007. This is how I transferred emails between 2 machines
running Outlook Express:
After setting up the account (on the old laptop) I created sub-folders exactly the same as my existing account. Having got some emails in the inbox I made sure that each new sub-folder contained at least one random email simply by drag and drop. It seems to
validate the folders. I then copied the folders from the maintenance directory on the desktop (you find this under Tools – Options – Maintenance) and pasted them into the equivalent folder on the this old laptop so they overwrote those present. I transferred
the contacts simply using Export – Address Book using a csv file. I then set up the email account in Outlook 2007 on the old laptop and ran an import from Outlook Express which was fine as per Microsoft’s instructions. On that machine I then exported to a
backup pst file which I transferred to my new Windows 7 machine and imported successfully into Outlook 2010. Perhaps there are easier ways but at least it worked!

You can directly do the same, visit https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/196215 to know the steps.

LOST FAVORITES IN OUTLOOK EXPRESS

ONCE I INSTALLED OSX I HAD TO CHANGE FROM OUTLOOK EXPRESS TO SAFARA AND LOST MY FAVORITES ON OUTLOOK EXPRESS. IS THERE ANY WAY TO RECOVER THOSE? ONE IN PARTICULAR HAD A CASE SENSITIVE PASSWORD SAVED THAT I NO LONGER CAN FIND. ANY SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
THANKS,
24HR

24HR: are you Jack Bauer?
DROP THE GUN, NOW! WHERE'S THE NERVE GAS!
Anywho, I'm confused, since Outlook is an email program and Safari is an internet browser; two different kinds of programs.
Have you tried launching Outlook in Classic; do you have Classic?
Also, I suggest that you try not to type ALL IN CAPS. It makes it difficult for other users to read and in the online world it means YOU'RE YELLING!

N95 Contacts in Outlook Express

Hi,
I've recently purchased an N95 and I remember on an older Nokia phone that I had and when I saved my contacts from my phone to my PC that all the names and numbers were saved in a viewable form in Outlook.
Now I only have Outlook Express available and even though i synch my contacts through OVI Suite,when I go into the Outlook Express address book , there aren't any contacts viewable to me!!!
I understand that syncing may only involve the contacts that i just have in Outlook Express I think?
What I'm trying to do anyways is to get all my contacts of the N95 onto some windows program that lets me view them!!!
Will Outlook Express do this somehow? or any other program unknown to me?
Hope somebody out there can help me!!!!!!!
Thanks....... : )

Hi,
If I open up Nokia PC Suite and choose 'Syncronisation', the option exists there to sync with the Windows Address Book (which is what OE actually uses).
It appears explicitly as Outlook Express (Windows Address Book)
I don't use it, as I use ActiveSync to sync with my exchange server, so use at your own risk, but if you backup your phone data and your Windows Address Book (WAB) before trying it, you could always restore if it fails.
HTH,
Alan.

Transfer contacts from Outlook Express

I'd like to transfer contacts from my Outlook Express on my PC to a hard drive to my Address book and Mail on my MacBook. I tried exporting the Comma Seperated Values file, but the mac does not recognize it. One tutorial said to transfer vCards, but I don't know how to do that. I recieved an email on how to do it from apple support, but I deleted the file.

How do I sync my contacts from outlook express to my i pod touch?

I am very new to the iPod touch and it is aslow learning curve for me.
I would like to be able to read and send emails from my ipod. I am with shaw.ca Outlook Express. I figured out how to load my email address in to seetings but I want my contacts there-how do I sync those in?

Iassume you are using Windows SP. if so you can Windows Mail (not Windows Live Mail). You can import your Outlook Express contacts into Windows Mail Contacts. Windows Mail Contacts will sync with your iPod.

How do I upload N70 contacts to Outlook Express

Hi
I'm possibly being a bit thick here but I'm trying to work out how to upload phone contact names and numbers into Outlook Express. I have no contacts in Outlook at the moment. Using PC Suite, Synchronise I chose Outlook then get the message 'no profiles have been created. To creat a new profile, use the Mail icon in the Control Panel.
Which control panel? On my PC? If so opening control panel deosnt have a 'Mail' option. Can anyone please help?
thanks

I do not use Outlook Express (I guess used tobe called Windows Address Book also), but I use the MIcrosoft Outlook that is part of Micrsoft Office pack..
I don't rememebr ever creating a profile to it, so overall the insructions given here seemed a bit complex, but maybe it is so when the profile is missing.
However, just one point about syncronisation.
I would not syncronise "first from pc to phone" and then new settings and resyncronising "from phone to PC". simply because that is not the way syncronisation is planned to work. YOu should always use "update on both directions" (because that is real sync and it is faster, you have minimal risk for dublicates or oter hassle).
I can write a looong story about what is the difference between first sync, second sync's, slow sync, fast sync etc. but just take my word of this:
Always use "update on both directions" and once you have create ONCE your sync settings, don't touch them.
That is what I do with all my 4 phones I use and never have problems with sync (2000 contacts and 800 calendar items)

Export Phone Contacts from Outlook Express to Noki...

I exported the phone contacts using the Nokia Suite to Outlook Express. But how do I import it back to my phone from Outlook Express ?
Thanks

If Outlook Express provides for exporting contacts in vCard format, you can send all contacts as vCard attachments to a message sent to an email account you access with the Mail.app. Save the vCard attachments from the message to a created folder on the Desktop and then use the Address Book import feature selecting vCards.
If OE does not provide for exporting contacts in vCard format, it should provide for exporting contacts as a tab-delimited text file.
The Tiger Address Book includes a Text File import selection/option.

Getting my contacts from outlook express

Pardon my ignorance, but as I newbie to the iPhone I am stumbling my way along. I thought I had it figured out on how to tranfer my contacts from my outlook express on my PC, but appearently not. Upon further inspection I notice that iTunes is trying to sync contacts and calendars with "outlook" but sync mail accounts from "outlook express". It doesn't even recognise that outlook express exists for contacts or for calendars. How can I work around this, or convince iTunes to import everything from outlook express? thanks........Travis

Yeah, Sync contact with "outlook" is checked. All contacts is selected.
Sync calendar with "outlook" is checked. All calendars is selected.
Sync mail accounts from "outlook express" is selected and both email accounts are checked.
I have nothing checked in the bottom 2 fields the other that says "other" or "advanced"

Tip: Transfer contacts without Outlook (Express), ...

I struggled to export contacts properly without being forced to use Outlook
CSV files, even if they are created by PcSuite itself, are sometimes not recognized by PcSuite (...). Somehow you cannot directly export to VCF files (imagine that Nokia would make people's lives easy ).
Here a short howto
Connect to your phone with PcSuite (even "OVI-only" phones work)
Open contacts, select all contacts
right-click selection, select "send business card"
Click "Preview Message" (open envelope icon at the bottom)
Click "View business cards" (message with paperclip icon)
Click "Save to file" (document with plus icon)
Choose a location, create a new folder, and you will have saved contacts separately as VCF. These can be imported by many programs.
Works with PcSuite 7.1 (Windows) and Nokia 6303i classic, 6230i and 3120

Importing pc outlook express contacts into mail on new mac

Hello,
I've been looking thru the support archives and can't find anything current on this issue (archived stuff is 2009). Is there any easy way to import your contact info from pc outlook express to mail 4.5 on a new macbook pro? I'm not sure which version the outlook express is, (it's my father-in-law's machine) he just made the switch to a mac. He is not very computer savy, hence the reason I am posting the question... I have looked at o2mac and was wondering if it can be done easily without purchasing an outside application... I have a brother-in-law who is working on the problem but he is soo pc oriented that he cannot find himself around the mac without thinking in pc-mode so I'm now trying to help (I'm AM a mac person...) but not outlook! He says that when he tries to import it comes in all gobbley-gooked (his words)....
Any help appreciated!

Install Mozilla Thunderbird onto the PC.

On the PC import whatever you need, mails, contacts from Outlook Express
From Thunderbird export contacts as LDIF. Copy the file over to your Mac and import it in Address Book.

I have my contacts in SIM and phone memory, the SIM is for "safekeeping". I make backup to memory card and PC with PC Suite and in addition I have contacts in SIM, I have lost some years ago my contacts and I don't want to there again.
I don't see dublicates because I have chosen that only visible memory is phone memory.
There seems in your setup that something remains "hanging" after sync and the sync does not happen.
I don't think you need to boot the PC, you can try to "untick" the connection methos you are using after sync in PC Suite -Manage connections. Then "retick" it and you are most likely able to sync again.
AND BTW, your phone model is such that it propably won't let you sync until you have "ok"ed the sync window in phone screen.
I am sure booting PC is not the only way to remedy the situation.Message Edited by manta on 07-Nov-2006
