Retrieve Mail Outlook Windows 7 Based Computer

I cant go back on the time machine as its in Australia and I am now in the UK for the next month.

For a better experience, please enable JavaScript in your browser before proceeding.

When re-charged and re-started all outlook folders and email have gone.

And the servers that I have the email on arent organized into folders its just 200,000 random historical emails as well as a older historical email from an old work email that I no longer have access to their serve to reinstall.

But, tonight I updated my Lion software (3 new updates were loaded).

Im afraid that my only hope is to get them from Time Machine.

I recently imported all my files from my Windows 7 PC (several years of email files, folders, distribution lists, etc.) and the import was successful.

I didnt like the way it imported the distribution lists, but they were there.

Please, someone respond to my request as well as the one Im replying to.

Sorry Outlook stores your data in this location: DocumentsMicrosoft User DataOffice 2011 Identitiesyour identity If you move the Main Identity, Office 2011 Identities folder or Microsoft User Data folder to a different location, Outlook will create a new blank Identity.

Some versions identify a virus within the database and puts your database into quarantine.

You can also search on Office 2011 Identities or Main Identity.

I was able to go into Time Machine and replace the data folder with one a few days before I had the problem.

It worked I did have to let the system rebuild the database, which was automatic and when it had rebuilt the database, my Outlook was back on line.

I had imported a.pst file from my windows 7 based computer running Outlook 2007.

It worked fine. I moved some folders from the Outlook PST folder organization to the mail folders Id set up under Outlook 2011 on the MacBookPro.

Ive read that you cant do that and that moving things around can cause system problems.

Thanks again for your valuable information.

Once you verify the imported file is OK, under File Export select to export as.olm file.

Import this file into your Main Identity.

You will need to move the imported data into the correct local folders.
