Re: Importing

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



Greetings,

I assume you're talking about your contacts? For Hotmail Live IDs (other non-Hotmail IDs,
you can simply change the address and everything transfers over), you'll need to save your
existing contact list and then import it into the new one. As well, all your contacts will
receive a message indicating that you've added them to the new account.

To save your current contact list, log into Messenger using the appropriate account, then
open up the main Messenger contact list window, press the Alt key on the keyboard to bring up
the menu bar, choose the Contacts menu and finally choose Save instant messaging contacts.
Save the file in a familiar spot like the desktop. Now, log out of that account and log into
the new ID, choose the same menu except this time, choose the Import instant messaging
contacts option. Choose the file you just saved and you're done.
