Hi, uh my windows contacts used to wrok, like i had the option of adding contacts n all.. now there is just nothing, cant add contacts or antyhing. I can still see the contacts i added before, and when i double click it i can edit te info, but thats it.

Not even the contact info comes up on the right side of the folder like it used to when u jus single click the contact.

I duno if it was something do with i had hidden folders shown for a while (which i turned back off) but when i did hav it on.. some weird live messenger contact things were in the folder also, which was my email as the folder, and all these messenger files inside.

I need my cnotacts thing lol i use it all the time, any help appreciated!!!

Hi McSanidev,

For Windows Live Mail (WLM), the contacts from Vista/Windows Mail will need to be imported to use them.

Contacts will have to be manually imported from within WLM.
Click Tools, Contacts, File, Import, Address book for current Windows User.

To see the Menu bar, press ALT+M and check Show all menus.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

I dun use Windows Mail. I just wanna use the contacts thingee, so is there a way of jus fixing to make it work again?

What email program are you using?

Can you give more details on what happens when you try to use Contacts from WLM?

Windows Live Mail )WLM) does not use the contacts in C:\Users\(your username)\Contacts. It uses it's own. That is why they must be imported to WLM.

In WLM, you can open it's Contacts by the left pane Contact button or from Tools -> Contacts.

Check to make sure that Windows Live Mail has all of it's defaults set to it.
