Changing Task Owner From "Unknown" to my name

[Candy]

Hello,

I searched for "task owner" before writing this question and did not find
the answer to my question.

My question: How do I change the owner of a task from "Unknown" to my name?
Why do some show up as unknown and some show up with my name on them? I
don't recall how this happens.

Can someone please answer my questions? I am using Outlook 2007, Windows
XP, and Mozilla Firefox. Thank you very much.

AFAIK you can't change the task owner's name. How did you create the Unknown
tasks?

Tasks created on a computer without an email account will make the owner
show as "unknown" is this what you have done?
