As soon as I load up outlook, I tried to import things, it locked up.

Now as soon as I open it...."Not responding"

Frown sent to them. POS. lol.

I am now repairing it. If that doesnt work its getting uninstalled and then re installed.

Not sure how long you waited, but it is generally a good idea to give it some time. As it probably is upgrading your PST file more than anything else.

I had that error too. I just looked through my connect directory until it came up, pressed apply and did it through there.

I suppose that the error had something to do with the registration. After I posted about the error, I looked around in the connect directory and found the download. I guess I wasn't expecting to have to browse through the connect directories.

Got it installed (32-bit). Haven't really seen anything that looks different from Office 2007, except for the animated "splash" screen when starting the office apps.

There is no PST file for it to use.

Windows Mail doesn't use PST files sadly. So it only said it couldn't find them. then it doesnt work.

Uninstalled it, then reinstalled but it kept the settings, so i am back at square one.

ugh this is such a mess. I try to import a save that I have of my Contacts and Inbox, but it says the PST file is already in use!

What the ****!

How can I import my contacts and Inbox that are PST folders?

When I start outlook it says "Cannot find inbox.pst file"

I hit ok

it says "Cannot find contacts.pst file"

I point it to where they are at. and it goes away,

then I go to "Import" and it wont let me import them because they are "already in use".

I got the issue fixed.

Now it has an option to import from Windows Mail. It imports my contacts. But not my email.

Can someone help me out.

When I set up an account it gives it, its own folder. and doesn't go to the default place.

below.

It places my email separately and doesn't do anything under "inbox".

What am I doing wrong?

I just got my invite. For those that have installed it: does it seem stable enough for daily use? I'm trying to decide if I'll install it on my work laptop or not.

Also, does anyone know if SharePoint Server 2010 will ever be part of the technical preview?

Did you setup and Exchange or Hotmail account?

No, at one point I had office 2007 installed. It took a fit, and I uninstalled it, so when I installed this version somewhere, the settings were around and it imported that.

If I go and delete those old files, outlook says "Cannot find Inbox and contacts.pst"

    • Microsoft and OpenAI's relationship continues to crumble

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      On Tuesday, Microsoft drilled another hole in the duo's sinking relationship with the debut of its MAI-Thinking-1 AI model, a midsize model that the company said is intended for high-efficiency, low-token-cost situations...... https://finance.yahoo.com/markets/article/microsoft-and-openais-relationship-continues-to-crumble-183330195.html  
    • Ladybird Browser is no longer accepting outside contributions thanks to AI

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Ladybird Browser is no longer accepting outside contributions thanks to AI by David Uzondu The Ladybird Browser Project has announced it will no longer accept public pull requests and will limit changes to those made by its maintainers as it works towards its first alpha release. According to Ladybird's creator Andreas Kling, this is "not a change we make lightly," but the rapid shift in AI capabilities forced their hand. Previously, a massive PR implied that the person behind it put a lot of care into the code and is ready to "answer for the consequences." Now with AI, anyone can generate a PR without even understanding the bug fix or feature they want merged. The blog post goes on to say that the team is closing all open public pull requests immediately, and that maintainers will not treat external forks as a review queue for upstream Ladybird. Instead, the team wants outside contributors to focus on reporting bugs and running tests. Kling started Ladybird back in 2019 as LibHTML, a simple HTML viewer for his hobby operating system, SerenityOS, but by September 2022, it had turned into a full-fledged browser project. What sets Ladybird apart from the likes of Google Chrome, Apple Safari, or Mozilla Firefox is its totally independent engine, which does not rely on pre-existing codebases. The project maintains a strict policy against default search engine deals or user data monetization, keeping development funded entirely by donations and sponsorships. Generative AI is forcing open source project maintainers to rethink how they handle public code contributions (and the whole open-source thing in general). One month ago, a leak about the National Health Service (NHS) suggested the organization was planning to take all of its public repositories private ahead of a May 11 deadline, thanks to Mythos (an AI model that Anthropic believes is too dangerous to be released to the public) and its ability to find and write exploits for zero-day vulnerabilities. Thankfully, the Government Digital Service (GDS) issued a counter-report titled "AI, open code and vulnerability risk in the public sector" that stopped the shutdown by pointing out that hiding code does not improve security.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By duhk · Posted

      I like the show more options. The only problem with it is that it's not always in a consistent spot in the menu. If the copy/paste/cut, happens to show on top, then more option is the last in the menu. But if copy/paste/cut happens to show on the bottom, then more options is before the copy/paste/cut. But I do like the more options because it hides the stuff that I rarely use. But I would like to choose what it is or isn't hiding. That would make it better.

      I wonder if "put it back the way it was for decades" ever crossed their minds? 🤣
