    - How do I delete the files listed under My Contacts in Outlook2007 When looking at Contacts on Outlook 2007, on the left there is a category called My Contacts. Under it are several listings including Contacts, Shared Contacts, etc. I would like to delete some of these or at least be able to set one of them as the default. Tag: Unresolved Entry Tag: 127028

    - Usefulness of shared contacts I have a setup where we want to keep a corporate contact list available to all users (but maintained centrally - users only need read access). So we have a specific account that "owns" the global contact list, and have shared that user's contact list. Other users can successfully see and access this shared list in Outlook 2003 by going to Other Contacts, clicking on the "master" user's name, and their contacts are then displayed. From here it's possible to right- click and choose "new message", "new appointment", "new meeting" and "new task" - so far, so good, and exactly what we need. However, suppose our user wants to send an email to TWO of the shared contacts; they can start as above by choosing "new message", but if they now click "Cc..." to add another of the shared contacts, they can't find them. They don't appear in the "Global Address List", nor under "Contacts", nor "All address lists", nor "Public folders". Even if they type in a valid name for one of the contacts directly into the CC box, it won't validate and expand to the email address from the master contact list. The way it is at present, sharing contacts is at best very long winded (involving cutting and pasting of email addresses) and at worst useless. Is this really so, or am I missing some step in the setup of the master list? Thanks, Derek TP Tag: Unresolved Entry Tag: 127027

    - Birthday / Anniversary Contacts to Calendar Hi All, I understand that when I place a birthday or anniversary in a contact then Outlook should place that same birthday or anniversary in the calendar. I can't seem to make this work. I understand there is sometimes a problem with imported .pst files. I've created new contacts and it still doesn't work. I have changed some of the categories (initially combined Birthday and Anniversary) which I've subsequently changed back. Does anybody have any bright ideas? Regards, Paul.

    - Outlook 2003: Show this folder as an email Address Book" option unavailable Hi! I have my old work laptop which I now use solely for personal use. My registry was corrupt so I deleted it. I've reinstalled Office with the install files on the hard drive. The problem I'm having now, I can't use the Outlook Contacts in outbound emails. I can only use my PST Contacts. I can add new contacts to the Outlook Contacts, but can't see them in the new outbound emails. Right-clicking on the Contacts folder icon and selecting "Properties", selecting the "Oulook Address Book" tab, the checkbox for "Show this folder as an email Address Book" is greyed out. I went into Control Panel, Mail, and deleted the profile and created a new one. Nothing changed. Thanks for your help. Bill Tag: Unresolved Entry Tag: 127010

    - Outlook Address Book Won't Show Contacts I have thoroughly reviewed, and tried, the various suggestions posted here, and elsewhere in the Windows Community, for solving this problem. Nothing has worked so far. On a new machine, using VISTA and Outlook 2007, I used Windows Easy Transfer to copy files from Windows XP & Outlook 2007. The new Outlook Address Book (OAB) does not recognize the contacts information in the .pst file. On the first try at transfer, the mail, tasks, and calendar info copied successfully, and worked fine, but the Contacts info did not display. Based on advice elsewhere on this forum, I concluded that the Contacts file was probably in the wrong format, from being copied over from prior versions of Office. I changed that as instructed, prepared a temporary .pst file, copied that to the new machine, then cust & pasted that data from the temp .pst Contacts display into the default .pst Contacts display. That process brought all of my contacts into Outlook 2007 and in that location, the contact data is all useable. (For example, from any contact card, I can create a new mail message and the email address opens in a new message box.) But, I still cannot open a new message and select an address from the OAB. It is blank. In Mail > File > Data File Management > Address Books Tab, the OAB is displayed. However, it does not list itself when Change is clicked. In Contacts > Properties > OAB tab, the "Show this folder as an OAB" is grayed out. Research here took me to this page: Contacts are not available in the Address Book http://www.howto-outlook.com/faq/contactsinaddressbook.htm This page accurately describes the problem, and ends with the advice to "recreate your mail profile," because the OAB service is corrupted. That leads to these instructions: Adding/Recreating a Mail Profile http://www.howto-outlook.com/faq/newprofile.htm I created a new mail profile, but the problem remains identical. So I am at a deadend. --vicmike 7/24/08 Tag: Unresolved Entry Tag: 126969

    - Outlook 2007 SP1 creating contact(s) automatically I've read numerous posts that say Outlook does not and cannot automatically create a contact. However, it IS happening. Every day, there are a few contacts added to my contacts folder that I did not specifically add. The only common denominator is that I received an e-mail from these folks. It's not even someone I necessarily replied to either. I've looked through every option window available, for e-mail and contacts, and cannot find any type of setting that's causing senders to be automatically added to contacts. Please do not respond with "Outlook does not do this or cannot do this" because it's happening. I have no add-in software. Again, I cannot find a common criteria for which these contacts are automatically created. The only contact info is their server e-mail address. Tag: Unresolved Entry Tag: 126926
