windows live messages do not appear after importing

26. April 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: ,

Had an old computer crashed and burned.  Pulled the old hard drive, and it appears I have moved the old emails to the new computer.  I can see the old messages as per their dates of creation, so I know these files are the ones I want to import. These were also from windows live mail, win 7.  I use the import feature on windows live mail on the new computer  (win 7 64 bit), and it creates the storage folder, but after it supposedly has imported 9000+ messages, (taking some time) nothing is in the storage folder.  

What magical incantation must I use to make these appear?

Missing line breaks / spacing issues – importing Office Windows to Office Mac

24. November 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , , , , , , , , ,

 I recently switched from Microsoft Office Windows 2010 to Microsoft Office for Mac home and business 2011.   I imported my PST files from outlook windows to outlook Mac using the import feature on the office Mac.  I had dragged and dropped the PST file from onto the desktop of the Mac before doing the import.  After doing the import my tasks lost all their formatting.  Bold / highlights / and line spacing all gone.  I can live without the bold and highlights, but my real issue is that I have years worth of information that has lost their line breaks so intead of being organized in a viewable format it is all jumbled together without any line breaks.  I am hoping someone has a solution so that I don’t have to manually fix this, it would take me a VERY long time.  Thanks in advance for your help!  

Importing contacts from a csv file: it seems to work but don’t find contacts after

I work with Excel and created a file with names and email addresses, then saved as csv file - comma delimited not Mac or Ms Dos - and use the import feature.  It appears to work but then I cannot find the contacts in my directory.  The csv file does have the needed data in it.  I know the column headings have to match the contact info in my email - perhaps this is the answer.  I've tried different ways to save the info but not getting anywhere.  Thanks!
