I lost my contacts and am trying to import them again to Outlook home and business 2021 desktop. I am having a few issues. I managed to import the contacts.csv and I can see the contacts when I go to the contacts folder. However, nothing appears in the contacts (this computer only) where it normally does. When I start typing a name or email address I regularly use, autocomplete puts it in fine. When I try to type in people I know are in my contacts but haven't emailed in a while, I get nothing. When I try typing in a name I just read in my contacts list, it doesn't pull anything in the To field in email then either.
I am able to import contacts.csv into the contacts folder but not the contacts (this computer only) folder. Once I pull in one .csv file, I try to pull in another with additional contacts. The file has worked before. However, Outlook won't let me import it to any folder. The next button is grayed out when I try to go to the folder I want to import to.
The following screenshots may add some detail. You can see the contact folder listed under email accounts is This Computer Only. But the contacts folders listed under Contacts includes Contacts and two Contacts (this computer only). The 511 items is not the correct number of contacts. The number there corresponds to how many emails I was able to recover from an OST file.
I want to get things back in order, then import the contacts files. What do you recommend?
