Thanks for your reply.

Unfortunately, this method did not work.

I followed your instructions to the letter and when I selected the contacts icon and clicked export and then chose vCards I ended up with a file that is 75kb in size and when I imported that into TB there was one contact name, mine.

Do you have another method that I could try that might work?

Thanks.

Hello,

I followed your instructions to the letter and it did not work. You are simply reposting exactly what you wrote the first time.

I opened the contacts folder and in that folder there is one (1) icon which is my username, PGK. I selected that icon and then clicked on Export in the menu in that folder and I chose vCards and saved it in a new folder on my desktop.

When I opened that folder with the exported .vcf file there was one file 75kb in size.

I opened TB and imported that .vcf file and it added one contact to my address book, just me.

I think you did not read my original post closely.

I have all 5,000 of my contacts in the address book contained within the Windows Live Mail 2011 program that stopped working the other day.

All I need to know is how to extract the address book from Windows Live Mail 2011 and import that into TB WITHOUT opening Windows Live Mail because I can’t open that program and have tried everything which is why I am switching over to TB.

Thanks for any additional help you can provide.
