I've been using windows live mail 2011 successfully for a long time for my gmail account ( set up by wizard so uses IMAP folders).  I have no other email accounts. Suddenly , during a session , my sent mail was no longer appearing in my 'Sent Mail' folder. I suspect some local file corruption. If I send messages using the gmail webmail the messages DO appear in the local 'Sent Mail'  folder so IMAP synchronisation is working OK. The sent messages were still appearing in the local All Mail folder and I can move them OK to 'Sent Mail'. and get them synchronised)

I tried reading all relevant 'answers' to similar problems.

I moved all sent messages from 'Sent Mail' to a subfolder in 'All Mail' in order to empty the 'Sent Mail' and used 'properties' to click DELETE all messages and headers. This did not work.

I removed the gmail account from live mail , and set it up again ( using the wizard).

I have used from control panel the 'repair windows live essentials'.

I've unset and reset the box for 'save copy of sent messages in the 'sent items'. And rebooted lots of times. I've reviewed all likely settings and they are unchanged. I've reset the IMAP folder list.

I'm hoping there is a simple remedy as I've now spent many hours 'experimenting' with no success.

while importing the photos all the images { other than imported ones} are lost .please help me to get these images back

Hi!

My Mac was running slowly so I did a system restore from scratch but made sure I had a good Time Machine back up. I checked with the help line at Microsoft and they said I would be able to restore my email accounts and history from the Microsoft User Data folder.

When I went to reinstall Office 365 Home Premium it installed the 2016 version, I had 2011 before.

I now can't see where the information is that I need to import to the newly installed version and if I do find it I'm not sure how to bring it in so that my Outlook accounts and emails will be restored.

The .olm file I imported just sits in the sidebar as a folder for me to view old emails but doesn't update with new ones.

I also tried setting up one of the accounts again as it's map so will sync with the godaddy account where it is hosted but it keeps telling me the username or password is incorrect. It isn't, I've tried, checked and rechecked but without success.

So, in summary, I need to import the email addresses into the newly installed Outlook 2016 and what do I do if, once they're installed, it continues to tell me the user name and/or password is incorrect?

Outlook for Mac 2011 will not start it gets to the choosing a profile stage then stop and says an unknown error has occurred. Then regardless of what I do it won't start.

I've already copied and rebuilt the databases without success.

Should I re-install?

Any ideas?

When I try to view a picture Photo Gallery starts to load and than quits and the program shuts down this also happens with Movie Maker. It had run previously but after a crash I have reinstalled everything but It will not load.

I installed & Uninstalled Windows 10 because Windows Live 2012 e-mail did not load.  Now that I'm back to Windows 7 my Windows Live 2012 e-mail is not the same as when I left it-I'm missing hundreds of e-mails and all my catagories.  I'm also unable to do a recovery to a previous date.  HELP!! Can I get back my old e-mail setup with multiple addresses or do I cry and suck it up and install a new e-mail program?

How do I transfer Groups (Contact Lists) from an older computer to a new one?  Over the years, I have set up lots of Groups, but when transferring contacts to a new computer, it seems the only method available is a CSV file, which is essentially plain text and does not handle Groups at all.

The good old Outlook Express is the only email program that could import and export Groups of contacts.  Microsoft chose to abandon it in favor of a stripped down version of Outlook Express that they now call Windows Live Mail, which can't import or export groups.  Microsoft encourages us to set up groups, but then offers no way to preserve them, no way to export or back up Groups.

I am getting really disappointed in Microsoft.  I do not trust it any more.  I cannot rely on Windows Live Mail.  I will seek a better email program.  But, in the meantime, it would be nice to hear that maybe I am wrong and maybe there is a way to transfer Groups after all.
