MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / January 2006why did I lose all Contacts when I upgraded from 2000 to 2002?
When I upgraded from outlook 2000 to 2002: I click on Contacts and it says "Unable to display folder. The folder is full." where did all my contacts go? When I do a Find / Search In: "Contacts" I can see all my contacts Address book is empty just before I upgraded, I exported my contacts to a Windows CSV file, but I cant import it Help! How did you migrate your data when you upgraded? Upgrade installations do not work with Outlook unless you create a new profile after the upgrade.

[quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > > Help! Thanks Russ... I exported the contacts to a .csv flat file. Can I copy it to a diff folder so Outlook 2002 will see it? What if I re-install Outlook 2000 and start over: How should I archive / Export / save/...the Contacts+Email, etc so I will have all appear correctly in 2002? I also tried syncing my old IPAQ and told it to send all "new" contacts to the PC, but all contacts were synced: The contacts were there, I just cant see them... Also, I did a "Find" the letter "a" in the Contacts Folder and could see a huge pile of contacts come up in the results window..they look good there too! > How did you migrate your data when you upgraded? > Upgrade installations do not work with Outlook unless you create a new [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > > > > Help! You should simply save your Outlook data file. Then create a new profile and set it to use your previous data file. These instructions work for Outlook 2002: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HA010771141033.aspx SignatureRuss Valentine [MVP-Outlook] > Thanks Russ... > [quoted text clipped - 34 lines] >> > >> > Help! Thank You for the reply... How to "simply save"? In Outlook 2000, do I 1) Export to a file...if so which format? I already have it in Win .csv 2) Archive to a .pst...I did that and got a 216Meg file 3) Do both, because I will need both? Do you have instructions for creating a new profile in 2002? > You should simply save your Outlook data file. Then create a new profile and > set it to use your previous data file.

There's also a lot of information here: http://www.slipstick.com/config/backup.htm http://www.howto-outlook.com/Howto/backupandrestore.htm The instructions for creating profiles vary with each version of Outlook so here are some links to articles that explain how to create a new Outlook profile: Outlook 2003, http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;829918 Outlook 2002, http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;287072 Outlook 2000, http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;195718 SignatureRuss Valentine [MVP-Outlook] > Thank You for the reply... > [quoted text clipped - 59 lines] >> >> > >> >> > Help! |
