import backup.pst files from external HD
The screen on my wifes laptop died and using another monitor I was able to
export .pst files to an external HD. During the xfer I ran out of disk space so I re-exported the files to another folder. I then set up a new account under my wifes name, giving her admin authority and then installed Outlook in her account. I then imported the .pst files into Outlook. Both computers are running Outlook XP. The import seemed to work fine but when completed I dicovered I had used an older backup and was missing all 2008 msgs. No problem, I thought, I'd just import and overwrite the new data over the old using the wizard to skip overwrite on duplicates. The new files were located on a different disk, if that makes a difference. No go. I keep getting a msg stating, in context, you do not ave the apprpriate authority to perform this operation. It is the same account/user as the first import. So how do I fix the situation? -- George S |
