Send To Mail Recipient Error

Posted by Bloggylife in troubleshooting, windows on May 10, 2009

I get this error when trying to Send To Mail from within any application or using right click -> Send To -> Mail Recipient option for a file on the desktop for example.

mapi32.dll is an invalid Extended MAPI Library

To solve this problem. Since I still have my old machine running – it’s still doing me good – with the same office version 2007. I copies the dll file, mapi32.dll from (C:\WINDOWS\system32) and placed it the exact location of the new machine, closed outlook and opened it again and problem solved.

Outlook Address History

Posted by Bloggylife in troubleshooting, windows on May 7, 2009

I’ve transferred to a new machine. As my email client, I use outlook at work and I was annoyed that all my address history that I didn’t store in my contacts, aren’t displayed any more. After a quick search, I knew which file to transfer from my old machine to the new one to get this problem fixed.

C:\Documents and Settings\user name\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Outlook.NK2

You may not see (Application Data) folder under your username profile, enable show hidden folders (tools -> folder options -> select Show hidden files and folders) or just paste the whole path in the address bar of the windows explorer you have open.

Copy the .NK2 file to the exact location of your new machine, but becareful that it’ll overwrite your cached addresses on your other machine!

Of course I had my outlook closed during the whole copy paste process, then I opened it to take in the new file, it detected that the outlook wasn’t closed properly and tried to repair. After the process finished, I typed in my old address and out they come :)
