In trying to get iCloud squared away on laptop (wife's acct), I now find CONTACTS folders in Outlook2010 changed and/or added as follows; can you explain what happened? MY CONTACTS CONTACTS - empty SUGGESTED CONTACTS - 4-5 contacts not in icloud one below iCLOUD CONTACTS - contains...

Have not had a chance to make a new iCloud acct yet, but just discovered that all my Outlook2010 contacts are merged with my old Verion dumb phone contacts into one master iPhone contacts list. Of course the contacts from Outlook have no ph# associated with them except a few do in the comment...

OK, great, thanks! will create new iCloud acct from laptop with 2nd AppleID and make sure the iPad and iPhone2 are pointed to that. seems logical that that's it. I probably still have the posting with the iCloud syncing links, if I find it, I'll post for possible benefit to others.

Could the problem be that I have just one iCloud acct. under my appleID shared by all equipment? Maybe it thinks it's just one person with 3 "i" devices and 2 PC's to sync. I saw no place to tell it to differentiate between multiple people living under one roof.

This may be little off topic since it veers into Apple land but not much. I'm looking for reference material that can help me understand iCloud syncing. It's a little confusing since they're trying to do so much - much of which I do not want. At the moment, my config seems like a house of cards...

You wrote: "The old pop acct should'nt cause any problems and you need it's pst file for calendar and contacts." Am I correct with the edit above? This is very interesting as I did not know for sure but had a hunch that certain functions were spread over 2 pst files. I will retain my POP but...

OK, I renamed the old .exe and that made iCloud happy. it went ahead and did what looked like a bunch of good stuff including creating a 2nd duplicate IMAP acct. in Outlook; I had already created one for ATT/Yahoo. now I get that dreadded pop-up requesting a password and I don't know which one...

Whoops, just found that I do in fact have 2 office folders, but only 1 installed. Have not done a rename yet to see which one is in use. See attachment.

I'm getting a new iPhone4 configed and can't seem to sync email with Outlook2010 on desktop PC. By "sync" I mean mirror deleted email. I just switched Outlook to a new IMAP acct and it works fine in terms of routine email send/receive, and the iPhone does get all my email too. thought I had...

Removing the old acct. seems to have fixed the duplicate emails. case closed. thanks for the help!

I created a new acct and pointed it to the pst in the new location and rules now work (although can't guarantee it was not operator error originally). however, contact groups are still dead, however, I know how to cut/paste to make a copy of an old one in a few sec. so not a big deal. I seldom...

Yes, meant "rules". created a new one from scratch, so is definitely freshly pointed to the target folder. Will redo and see what happens. Thanks.

Thanks, I'll re-add the profile as it's the original from a year ago. also, filters don't work either, even new filters. even when I click "run filter now". maybe same problem?

I have Outlook 2010 on Win7 HP. I moved my .pst file to a central location for more convenient access in my multi-boot system. 2 versions of Win7 can access it and email works fine but my contact groups don't work now. I can open them and contents look fine. I can do a save, but when I try to...

ok, thanks for the quick reply.

I'm currently using POP3 with "leave email on server" checked. Can someone tell me if this is comparable to IMAP in terms of having an auto backup of my email should my PC hard drive suddenly croak? That is do I still need to make backups of my pst file? If mail is safe on the server, does...

ok, thanks again. While my (2) HP J5750's are "all in ones", could never get scanning to work right and probably send one fax every 2 yrs. Have an Epson 1200 Perfection scanner, probably 15 yrs old that still works great for solid hi res scans. The new printer is an HP8100 print only. I'm...

Thanks for the reply, sorry for the delay. Decided to buy an eprinter, will arrive tomorrow. However, in the interest of science, pls expand on "peer to peer". Do you mean because the printer is plugged via USB into my main desktop, that makes it peer to peer with the laptop trying to talk to...

I suddenly have erratic printing over the network on Win7. 2 identical HP J5750s are connected USB to a desktop PC. The laptop will print via Office, albiet slowley; that is it takes 1-2 min to find the printer then it prints fine. The desktop prints fine to either printer from Outlook or...

Whoops, had no idea there was a zoom feature. Slap head. It was set to 200%. Have ave no idea how it got set. I will eagerly await your tutorial. Thank you!
