| Guest | Missing Contacts - When Clicking TO Icon - No Contacts to Pick Fro The three non-admin accounts on my machine can no longer click the To button to choose from their contacts of who to send an email to. Before, it showed all of their respective contacts to pick from. If they click their respective contacts icon, their contacts do show up there. Any idea? Thanks, Mark |

Thanks, Mark What antivirus program are you using? It may be causing this problem. See the "FIRST" section in this tutorial. Windows Mail problems Are you able to open the Contacts folder directly from the "C:\Users\(your username)\Contacts"? Shawn |

| Guest | Re: Missing Contacts - When Clicking TO Icon - No Contacts to Pick I can open the contacts from the user's folder. As far as antivirus, I had to disable it because I had all kinds of problems with Windows Mail after a couple of months of it working fine. While assisting me with the contacts problem, any antivirus to recommend that will not conflict with Vista, or other software? Appreciate the assistance.

| Guest | Re: Missing Contacts - When Clicking TO Icon - No Contacts to Pick I recommend you use either avast! or AVG, either one after a custom install that tells it to leave out the part that scans email: http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html http://free.grisoft.com/doc/5390/us/frt/0?prd=aff Disabling your old antivirus program may not be enough to stop it from causing problems, especially if it's from Norton, McAfee, or Trend. You may have to uninstall it as well. "Mark" <Mark@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:8F3DB685-3DAC-4586-9DAC-C36CA3AB17C1@xxxxxx Quote: >I can open the contacts from the user's folder.

| Guest | Re: Missing Contacts - When Clicking TO Icon - No Contacts to Pick Fro umm... Clicking the To: button should show all the contacts and groups. The auto-complete only accesses the last 29 email addresses. -- http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview <robertmiles@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:e$QhQUlPIHA.1168@xxxxxx Quote: > > "Mark" <Mark@xxxxxx> wrote in message > news:4E0EB7CF-7DB2-4300-8697-A6094CD014DA@xxxxxx Quote: >> The three non-admin accounts on my machine can no longer click the To >> button >> to choose from their contacts of who to send an email to.

The download link for it is in the same link of the previous post. You should completely uninstall the other antivirus program and not just disable it to help with the problem. Shawn |
