I have copied my Contact list to a CD and then tried to load it on my laptop.
But I keep getting a message that I am not authorized to load the file:
backup.
You've provided far too little information for anyone to help you.
Read the directions:
The file you need to back up is your Personal Folders file (*.pst) It's
where all the mail, calendar, contacts etc are stored.
Take a look at these pages for info on Outlook data backup:
