Contact information does not appear in the address book in Outlook

Do you have more than one contact-type folder? Also, is your Contacts folder
selected to be an address book? Right click on it and choose "Properties"
and go to the Outlook Address Book tab to see.
 
Vince,

I only have the contact folder and yes, it is selected to be an outlook
address book,

now, I've tried to create a new contact folder and saved it under the
personal folders, then, copied the contacts into it and even make it as
address book thing. The result is that I can see the folder but still I can't
see the contacts that in it.

Naif
 
Where can you see the folder but not the contacts? Sorry if I'm being dense,
just trying to sort out your issue...
 
in the address book window and under "show names from the" I can see all the
contact folders, but if i select any one of them, then i can't see the
contacts list that i have in that particular folder

If you add a new contact with an electronic address to any of those folders
does it show up in the address book?
 
Vince,

Thank you for your help, but I solved this problem. the solution was right
in front of my eyes but I couldn't see it. for some how all e-mail address
from the contacts were deleted, but not any other information like tel no,
home address, etc. I didn't notice that all of that time because I was
assuming the error was in the setting not in the contact itself. luckily, I
have a backup and I only import the contacts and replace the old one so that
every contact have the e-mail address recovered. once again thank you for you
help

Best Regards,
Naif
