Incredimail problem I have a new windows 8 desktop. I used the transfer tool to save my old emails. I used the transfer tool on my new pc to 'import' the old emails. When I reopened incredimail on my new pc the folders and emails are not there. Only my profile and contacts are there. The file transfer worked as I can see the list of emails in the 'filing cabinet' file I just cant access them in incedimail. Any ideas how to fix this?

Check all the folders, often e-mail clients do not import e-mail directly to your inbox and alike, they will create a fresh folder alongside your inbox, perhaps call "recovered mail".

    All I can recommend off the top of my head in that case is try exporting the mail again using the transfer tool, and then import again.

    I've tried several times...including unistalling incredimail then reinstalling and retransferring...I thought it might be something in windows 8 or the upgrade to incredimail 2.5 from version 2.0 preventing me from seeing stuff as the set up in incredimail 2.5 is different...shows each email account in a separate inbox rather than all in one. I bet its something simple but I just cant think what to try next..all I really want to be able to recover is the 'sent mail' as all the incoming stuff is still on the virgin media server which I can live with. Thanks for your help anyway it is appreciated.

SOURCE: CD / DVD player not listed as device on Windows Explorer

Try physically removing the player and fire up the laptop. Power down the laptop, replace the player and power back up. If that doesn't help, see if BIOS recognizes it.
If that doesn't work, get back to me.

SOURCE: CD / DVD player not listed as device on Windows Explorer

I also have the same problem. I've tried all the above plus some added info. The floppy still works when I swap it with the DVD. Occasionally it works for a short time right after a hard boot but soon after it appears to uninstall. I have searched the net for answers to this problem without success. I tried the registry correction without avail. There has been some online comments that the problem appeared after an auto update from uSoft. I believe the problem is software or firmware related.

SOURCE: R40 Thinkpad CD drive

I also have an IBM R40 with a combo drive that showed the same symptoms. I switched the drive with two another two which I can assure that work 100% correctly, and the same problem happens. First the drive wasn't detected some of the times, or it got randomly "disconnected" while the laptop was on. Nowadays (about 1 year ago), the drive never gets detected, not by the BIOS or by the operating system (Linux, but also tried on Windows), even so, If I don't keep the drive disconnected, when the laptop boots the BIOS hangs for a long time like it was trying to detect the drive, but it doesn't. It turns out that is a system board problem. Hope this helps you on finding the solution. Regards

Have incredimail on computer but unable to transfer to ipad
You won't be able to do so with Incredimail.

I recommend using iTunes to sync emails-- or you could set up your email on your iPad by going into your Settings > Email, Contacts and Calendars, then tap on add account.

How to transfer from old to new computer
If you are using windows Xp - there is a transfer files option that will help transfer files from one pc to another using a serial cable.

To find that option, go to start, programs - accessories and then system tools and slide down to file transfer and follow the prompts.

You can also burn the files you wish to transfer to a cd and insert it in the pc you wish to transfer them to and then open them one by one and save them. You can use a memory stick and save the files to it and then plug it into the usb port of the pc you want to transfer the files to and open the drive then save the files one by one to the new pc.

If the files are not too large in size, you can email them to yourself and then open your email account in the pc you wish to transfer the files to and save them to it.

Hope this helps?

Need to save and transfer all e-mails to a new computer
First of all, I assume that all the email account settings have already been setup within Outlook on the new computer (as you have been using Outlook on the new computer successfully to send and receive email).

If you want to transfer your files you will need to copy the Outlook PST file from your old computer to your new computer.
To find the location of the PST file, open Outlook on the old computer and in the left-hand pane you should see a listing of all your email folders, with the root heading being “Personal Folders”. This is your Personal Folders PST file which contains all your email.
  1. Right-click on the “Personal Folders” heading and select “Properties”.
  2. In the Properties window that appears for Personal Folders, click the “General” tab and the “Advanced” button.
  3. In the next window that appears there should be a field called “Filename”. This denotes the location of the PST file which contains all the email and folders within your Personal Folders PST file. Write down the location of the PST file and then click “Cancel” twice to close the two open windows. (It should be someting like C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\outlook.pst)
  4. Open Windows Explorer or My Computer and navigate to the location of your PST file. Be aware, you may need to enable the display of hidden files and folders to see the path to the PST file, as it might be a hidden path. To do this, go to the “Tools” menu > “Folder Options”. In the window that appears, click the “View” tab and enable “Show hidden files and folders” then click OK to save and close.
  5. Once you have located the PST file you can confirm that the file is correct by looking at the size of the PST file – it should be quite large - mine is about 1.2 GB!
  6. Copy this file to a USB hard drive or USB stick if you have one that can hold the size.
  7. Once the file has been copied to the USB hard drive, disconnect the USB hard drive from your old computer and then connect it to the new computer.
  8. Copy the PST file to a memorable location, such as the desktop (this is only temporary, and this PST file will be removed once the email transfer has been completed).
  9. Now it is time to import the contents of the old PST file into your installation of Outlook on the new computer by using the in-built Outlook import function.
  10. Open Outlook on the new computer then go to the “File” menu > “Import and Export”. The Import and Export Wizard window will appear.
  11. Select “Import from another program or file” and click “Next”.
  12. On the next screen asking you to choose the file type, select “Personal Folder File (.pst)” and click “Next”.
  13. The next screen will ask you to select the file to import.
  14. Click the “Browse” button and navigate to the location to which you copied the PST file from your old computer (in our example before this was the Desktop).
  15. Under “Options” select one of the options depending on how you wish the import to behave. I suggest you leave this at the default setting of “Replace duplicates with items imported” as you should not have any duplicates.
  16. Click “Next”. This last screen before the import allows you to specify exactly what should be imported. If you wish to import everything from your old PST file (i.e. mail, calendar, contacts, etc.) then underneath “Select the folder to import from” choose the root “Personal Folders” node as this will import everything underneath “Personal Folders” in your old PST file. As you can see, this includes emails and also the calendar, contacts, and other folders.
  17. Make sure “Include subfolders” is ticked and enable “Import items into the same folder in” then select “Personal Folders”. This will import all the data under your old Personal Folders into your new Personal Folders.
  18. Click “Finish” to commence the import. It could take a while considering the number of emails which need to transfer across.
Once the process has completed check the results. If you are satisfied then you can safely delete the copied PST file from your old computer to the desktop, as all the data from that file has been imported into your PST file for your installation of Outlook on the new computer. I would advise to burn it on a CD/DVD (depending on the size of the file) or store it somewhere else - it is always a good idea to keep a backup.

If you have any more questions or this description is not clear to you, just come back here and leave a comment - I'm happy to help.

Transfer Email to DVD R
Save the email to your desktop (File - Save As). Put the blank CD or DVD in. Go to My Computer and open the DVD drive. Make sure the window isn't maximized so that you can see the desktop. Drag the mail file into the DVD drive window. Windows may process the file for a few seconds. In the DVD drive window click "Write these files to CD". It will burn file onto the DVD.

I am trying to get my e-mails from Incredimail switched over to Outlook 2007? can you help me?
As I understand from other sources online, Incredimail and Outlook use the same file formats. There is a export option in the menu of Incredimail, use that tool to export mail and contacts to Outlook. Once exported, take that file and use the import tool in Outlook (point it to the new export folder Incredimail just created) to import the mail and whatever else you decide to import.
Hint: The 'import' and 'export' tools are usually under the 'File' menu or 'Tools' menu.
