Hi,
I reformatted my hard drive - best thing I've done for ages.
Anyhow backed up Outlook 2003, which i have setup for 2 Profiles:
:1 Outlook (personal)
:2 ESafetysigns (work)
This created several *.pst files which seem to cover it, they are:
:1 Outlook.pst, and
:2 ESigns_postmaster.pst
(Both *.pst have significant Memory sizes so i assumed all the data required was in there, however I did question the naming of "ESigns_postmaster", but I though Outlook automatically created the *.pst for me)
When I reset up my Outlook I have successfully brought over my Outlook.pst and all my personal data, but when I set up the second Profile and attempted to do the same for ESigns_postmaster.pst it has not worked?
I assumed Outlook would look for ESigns_postmaster.pst, but in fact on creating a new profile, (called ESafetysigns), has called it Outlook2.pst.
I tried to open it using File > Open > Outlook Data, but its asking for a password.
I did not allocate a password and tried some of my favourite passwords but no luck there either?
Any ideas, i was thinking of renaming ESigns_postmaster.pst to Outlook2.pst, but worried that will mess it up further?
Thanks, Simon.
Actually - not that successful - just reailsed I have to set up all my accounts again as this does not seem to get saved as part of the *.pst - how do you save accounts?
