I have Windows Vista Home Premium. I want to back up the complete Outlook 2007 including contacts, e-mail, personal folders etc. Does the automatic back up take care of this, or do I need to do someyhing additional? Thanks.

- 1. Outlook Unable to close
I have Outlook 2007 sp1 running on a Vista sp1 system that will only close when the task is ended in the task manager. What would be causing this and what is the solution? - 2. Outlook 2003 Sends non-existent messages
My Outlook 2003 will tie itself up trying to send a non-existent message. By non-existent message, I mean there are no messages in the Outbox waiting to be sent. It does this rather frequently. Most of the time closing Outlook and re-booting the computer re-sets whatever is hung up, but after a while it goes right back to the same old thing. Any suggestions? - 3. How do I view attachments without opening them.
I had another version of outlook on my computer. Something happened to lose all of my email and screwed all my settings. When I reinstalled outlook I lost the option to have picture attachments automatically appear in my email, in the preview pane or the actual email). I now have to open each individual attachment. It was much easier before and I have been through everything I can find in options and everywhere else. Anyone know how to set this up. Before you say it I was not using outlook 2007 before it was 2003 or earlier. - 4. can't preview attachments "blocked for my security???" solution?
certain attachment file formats are blocked for my security. vista appart of being tidious and to demanding and time consuming, is controlling and puting barriers on e-mails send by accepted previously by me e-mail addresses. shame and no solution shows through. - 5. outlook default font color
The default font color does not change when composing an email. I tried to modify this from the Tools menu, click Options. On the Mail Format tab, click Stationery and Fonts. On the Personal Stationery tab, under new mail messages, click Font. i tried all the setting in this area but it did not work .

The PFBackup tool copies your PST file, which contains all of your Outlook folders. It does not, however, backup your account information. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]

Thanks..I'm a little green at this. What do you mean by account information? What is the PFBackup tool?

Account information is the data about your email address(es) and servers. You are the one that mentioned "automatic backup", and since the PFBackup tool ( http://www.**--****.com/ ) is the most common, I assumed that's what you meant. If not, what "automatic backup" do you mean? Outlook has no automatic backup by itself, nor does Windows. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]

1.Backup PST file to External Hard Drive
Every night I backup my entire "documents and settings" folder and sub folders to an external hard drive using a backup program called BounceBack Pro, which backs up in native format (i.e. no compression scheme is used). The PST file for my Outlook 2003 does not back up. What do I have to do to make a copy on the external hard drive? I tried installing the "backup PST" file from Microsoft, but it will not let me make a backup. When I try to make the backup I get the error message: "Cannot copy Outlook: The process cannot access the file because another process has locked a portion of this file." I get the same error message if I try to copy the PST file from my c:\ hard drive into the appropriate folder on my e:\ external hard drive. Help!? Chuck Humphrey
