Can't edit contacts

I'm unable to edit my contact names...it will highlight but won't let me
edit. What's wrong? Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Ian

Re: Can't edit contacts

Where are you trying to do this? Open Contacts (the next icon after Mail at
the bottom left-hand corner), find the contact you want to edit and
double-click on it to edit. The top page is a summary; the ones lower down
(Contact, Personal etc) show boxes for data entry. Click OK when you're
finished.

Re: Can't edit contacts

To ensure one is editing the correct contacts in a multiple email account
WLM configuration with both Live and non-Live ID's
1. Ensure the Live ID for the contacts being edited is the current signed-on
ID
2. If editing contacts for a non Live ID account(pop3) ensure that
Tools\Options\Connections\Stop Sign-in In is selected.
