Outlook 2003 personal backup
Hi
have problem with backuping my contacts and tasks. I have reinstalled windows and Office 2003 and before that have backuped my mails,contacts, tasks, everything with "personal folder backup" by MS. Now I have my mails back but do not have Contacts and Tasks in that .pst file. Where I can find it? When I was doing this with older version of Office 2000 its personal folder backup prgm did everything in one .pst file, mails, contacts and tasks. Anyone knows this better than me how to get my contacts and tasks back cause I'm hopeless. Thanks Darko

Outlook 2003 personal backup
How do you know the contacts and tasks aren't there? Did you display the entire contents of that .pst file in the Folder List?

Outlook 2003 personal backup
Hi Sue,
yes I did that. I have Inbox, SentItems, Junk E-mail, Drafts, DeletedItems, Outbox and my specific folders. They are not there as used to be in O2000. Normally in O2000 I had Contacts and Tasks "folder". What I did in O2000 is: 1. open .pst file , copy mails, tasks and contacts to the new one 2. close that copy of old .pst file which is empty after that.

yes I did that. I have Inbox, SentItems, Junk E-mail, Drafts, DeletedItems,
Outbox and my specific folders. Still sounds like you might be looking at the Mail navigation pane, not the Folder list. They are not there as used to be in O2000.

What I did in O2000 is: 1. open .pst file , copy mails, tasks and contacts to the new one 2. close that copy of old .pst file which is empty after that. I'm confused.

Outlook 2003 personal backup
Thanks Sue,
thats it. I'm used to O2000 where I hadn't have folder list (or didn't know how to use it). Have found Tasks and Contacts folder now. About these steps. I'm copying my mails, tasks, contacts like that. Or am'I doing this completely wrong. :-( How can I import .pst file with mails, contacts, tasks without doing this "strange combinations"? darko "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote in message ... yes I did that.

Outlook 2003 personal backup
I think you need to start at the beginning and explain what you are trying to accomplish and where you're starting from. Are you trying to back up data? Import data? Why?

Outlook 2003 personal backup
Sorry Sue have I confused you, here we go.
I'm trying to import .pst file into O2003. I have installed PFB tool and opened my 260307outlookbackup.pst file. This .pst file is made with PFB for O2003. So, when I have opened it in O2003 haven't seen in that .pst file my Contacts and Tasks folder. Now you told me to open Folder view and now I see my Contacts and Tasks folders. I was using Mail view before. My question now, how to "transfer" Tasks and Contacts into O2003? I'm used to do this by opening "copy" file, this 260307outlookbackup.pst from "BackupMyMails" folder, and than coping (dragging) mails, contacts, tasks... into "original" Personal Folders, opened when I start the O2003. So, I'm obviously doing things wrong. How to import correctly .pst file into O2003? thanks Darko "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote in message ...

Outlook 2003 personal backup
Nothing in your description explains any need to import If you made a complete backup of our original .pst file, then you should tell Outlook simply to use that file as your default information store. File | Data File Management.
