I use my IP to check my emails 1st; once I open the program my emails get
'dumped' into my email program(s) which are Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 and "IncrediMail". HOWEVER; NONE of the 3 have the same 'email addresses' listed in them. Do I have to go into each and 're-type' or 'type' the ones that are missing or possibly changed or incorrect? Please be specific. I go to my IP to check my emails in order to use THEIR servers' protection; then I use the one I have on my computer. -- God Bless! LMA |

It usually means Internet Protocol, but that does not make sense in your post. ss. |

Thanks MIC...you are NO different from 'others who act like you KNOW
everything' and have NO patience for those of us (who because of health problems) can't just 'catch onto something that is "foreign" to them'. DON'T write if you have to 'inflict' YOU superiority on others. It is NOT at all flattering to you! People that 'act like they KNOW everything...are 'irritating' to those of us...who 'unfortunately' DON'T -- SO GO AHEAD and REPORT ME! I'm quite sure that will give you a 'pat on your back today'! -- God Bless!

IP - for me means "Internet Provider". I've already had one 'smart' remark
made to me this morning. My Question was...do I have to type my address book/contacts into EACH and every email program I have. If so...just say "Yes"; if NOT and you aren't willing to 'provide me with instructions' - don't bother writing. I have this 'windowshelp.microsoft.com on my computer...with the hope that I DON'T HAVE TO 'TALK' and maybe even 'chat' with people who have no patience to try to help me 'understand' something that I obviousl DON'T. I'll just type the addresses into each...that way I won't have to 'bother' those on this [whatever] who think they are so damn superior...I'll tell you like I told the LAST guy...Don't like the fact that I've posted and supposedly it has been 'explained OVER AND OVER' - then maybe I am looking in the wrong place. Rudeness, is NOT something that I 'take to kindly'; and I can be 'just as rude' back! This is 'someplace' that I am 'supposed' to be able to 'go into' and have 'questions' answered...but it seems as if it isn't meant for a novice. I've 'typed' on computers for 27 years...but my experience with Microsoft VISTA and Dell (the manufacturer of the computer I use) don't CARE if you understand it or not! When I bought my 1st computer, the salesman didn't even 'bother' to 'listen' to what I wanted or needed. It took 3 computers being sent to me, in order to get one that 'worked' properly; but I'll never deal with DELL again. But it seems that VISTA is 'out there, forced on the unsuspecting public, because Bill Gates and 'his' crew wanted to be the 1st to put out a 'Walk On Water, Kick Ass' operating system. It does NOT walkl on water, but it certainly has "KICKED ASS", otherwise...why would THIS program be necessary? Sorry I am taking my frustration of what the 'previous' response to my question was...but it seems the 'only way' to have all my contacts is to type them into each and every email program. But "thanks" anyway. -- God Bless! LMA "Synapse Syndrome" wrote: "GRITSandSLUTS" . wrote in message ...

Well the short answer is possibly yes.
If you have programs on your PC they may have import export functions, you export from one system into a file and then import that file on the target system CSV, comma separated values is a common format for that file. Whether you can do this from your provider's server or not depends on a lot of things. In short, it may be easier to just type in. GRITSandSLUTS wrote: IP - for me means "Internet Provider".

... IP - for me means "Internet Provider". I've already had one 'smart' remark made to me this morning. Well you can't just make up your own personal anacronyms and expect everybody else to understand what you are on about. In a computing context, IP means Internet Protocol. The term you were looking for was ISP - Internet Service Provider. Everybody would have understood what you meant by that. My Question was...do I have to type my address book/contacts into EACH and every email program I have. snip rant It depends on what address book programs you are using. Some can import and export from others. Most can import and export as Comma Separated Values (.csv files), but you will get better results using a other import methods if available. ss. |

It may mean that for you, but for almost everyone else, "IP" means "Internet Protocol, and the standard abbreviation for what you mean is "ISP" for "Internet *Service* Provider. I don't say that to give you a hard time about your misuse of the terminology, but to explain why your message wasn't understood. But don't give someone else a hard time for not understanding *your* misuse of the language. I've already had one 'smart' remark made to me this morning.

If so...just say "Yes"; if NOT and you aren't willing to 'provide me with instructions' - don't bother writing. Like Synapse Syndrome, I didn't understand what you meant by "IP." If you think that when somebody doesn't understand you because you use a standard abbreviation in a non-standard way, it's a " 'smart' remark," you need to lower your sensibilities some. He told you politely that what you said didn't make sense, and asked you to clarify it. There's nothing even slightly rude about his message. The only person I see being rude here is you. Continue in that vein, and you will quickly alienate everyone here, and nobody will help you.
