Mac Forum / Applications / Outlook Express / June 2005iMac to iMac firewire transfer: lost OE address book, keepers\
We did a Firewire transfer from the old imac to a newer one. OE should have made the transfer with addresses, keepers intact, but failed to do so. I moved the OE preferences in hopes that this would contain the missing info, but no luck. We're ready to abandon OE altogether in favor of something a little more user-friendly, but need to recover the "keepers". I can't seem to just extract any emails or pictures from the "keepers" file and transfer them by flash drive or email. What am I missing?

All of your data will be stored within this folder. Ricky  SignatureIf you need to reply directly to me, just remove the capitalised letters from my faked e-mail address. Otherwise, please post back to the newsgroups. See Q048 on http://machelp.webhop.net/ for more details on protecting yourself from newsgroup spam. No- I'll give that a try. Thanks! Larry Progress is being made. It turns out that I should have used the setup assistant on the newer Mac to guide me through the process.

I mistakenly deleted a critical address book group from my address book. Yikes! Do you - or anyone else out there - have any idea how I can recover it?
