  • 1. Importing Contacts-where to put field?
    I am importing contacts from Goldmine via Excel and one of the features we frequently use is an account identification so we can run filters to segregate certain contacts. Is there a field in Outlook 07 that would be comparable to import this data into?
  • 2. Problem changing Printing Styles
    I seem to be unable to change the font size that my calendar prints as. Appointments are defaulted to a microscopic 8pt setting. I have changed the font size in the print setup and the default style that I'm using (weekly). I even changed the viewing size. Nothing seems to work. When I double check the setting, it's definitely set at 12 pt, but it still prints, and print previews at 8pt. Is this a bug?
  • 3. Changing default point size of text in Calendar
    I have Outlook 2003 on Win XP. In the Calendar (such as Day View and Week View), the point sizes of the fonts of the displayed text are too small for me. Is there any way to change the default point sizes to make the text larger from now on? -- Steven D. Litvintchouk Email: XXXX@XXXXX.COM Remove the NOSPAM before replying to me.

Interesting, thanks. I note it only seems to happen with some Bcc'd messages and not others. OOC do you know if this is fixed in the latest version?
  • 5. Opeing Attachments is frustrating
    When I receive e-mails with attachments in Outlook 2007, I click on the attachment, only to find another e-mail with another attachment. I click on that attachment, only to find another e-mail with another attachment, only to find another e-mail with another attachment. You get the point. I often have to do this 6 or 7 times before I get to the end and can actually click on the attachment and it is "there" and opens. Its like I have to open e-mail after e-mail to get to the attachment. If I access this very same e-mail account via the internet , rather than at my home computer, this very same attachment opens immediately. No wading through e-mail after email to get to it. What gives? Is there a setting in Outlook 2007 that is causing this, since it doesn't happen when I access my e-mail from the web outside of Outlook? Thank you.

I recently upgraded my DSL Modem to a Wireless Router when doing so I lost my 
emails. 
Does anyone know where I may be able to find these emails. 

Thanks

Do a search (START / SEARCH or START FIND), in the search field enter *.pst

That should not have affected your mail in any way.  What else did you do?


Enable showing hidden files and folders and search for files ending in 
".pst"

1.Recover lost pst archive file

I inadvertently deleted one archive file that was showing 
a very large size.  Now, I cannot access any of the other 
archive files.  Any ideas how the recover the deleted file 
or how to open the remaining files?  Explorer shows they 
are there and have at least a size but when I open there 
are no messages.

2.how to recover Lost *.pst files

After upgrading to Outlook 2003 from Outlook 2000 I added an email account. I 
changed the default account from one to the other a couple of times then left 
them and went to do something else.

Later. when I rebooted, my original account was gone. The new account is 
empty and all the data, emails, contacts and calender appointments from my 
original account is gone.

I did a search on *.pst and located a back up from last May and restored 
that. How, and where can I find the *.pst files from May 2005 to 8/12/2005?

3.recovering lost emails from .pst

Hi-

I accidentally deleted my "saved emails" folder from my Personal
Folders in outlook 2003 and later emptied the "deleted items" folder.
I lost over a year's worth of important email!  Before I defrag my
hard drive (much needed), is there ANY WAY I can recover these
emails?? (they were not left on the IMAP email server).  Doesn't
Microsoft hide them somewhere or archive them somehow in case an idiot
like me makes this mistake?  (they do not seem to be part of my
archive.pst backup file when I opened that to look at what was saved
there).  I searched my computer for other .pst files, but none
contained the lost email folder.  Is there any way to "roll back" to a
previous version of my .pst the same way I can roll back my system
files to a prior version?

Thanks!
Jonathan

4.Recover lost email files

I lost my c: drive, but was able to recover data files. I have reinstalled 
Office and was wondering how I could open the old Outlook email folder. Is 
this possible? Where does it reside? I found .pst files under Application 
Data/Outlook, but these files seem too small to contain so much data. Any 
suggestions?

5.recovering lost file with lots of emails

I have several files where I keep emails that are important to me, business, 
family, etc.
Somehow the file that I use to keep the emails to do with my work has 
dissapeared.
Perhaps I accidently deleted the entire file with all its subfiles while 
pushing the shift button as well... I cant imagine but its the only 
possibility I can think off.
Either way, its gone, not in the deleted items folder, no where.
Does anybody know if I can recover it somehow?
