Does anyone know how I go about getting my contacts. I've had to make tons of changes over the years to keep using windows live mail 2012 but Ive  never lost all my contacts like I have after making these changes. I've important contacts from Outlook.com but it just doesn't seem even close to being the same. When sending a email I use to just start typing in a contact and it would just pop up and  I wouldn't have to type it all the way in and now that doesn't seem to be happening at all for anyone I send a email. Thoughts?
