When I try to select an address in an email I'm getting ready to send a
different set of addresses come up than are in the "Contacts" area. Why is
this and how can I sync them together?

How do you try to select it? If you try by typing the first part of it,
Windows Mail uses a separate list of the last 29 addresses you sent
messages to, not the contacts list. If you have 29 or fewer addresses
in your contacts list, you should be able to sync them by sending
messages to everyone on you contacts list, but they could then get
out of sync if you send a message to someone not on your contacts
list.

If you want the contacts list instead, start a new message and don't
type any part of the address. Instead, click on Tools, then Select
Recipients in the new message window.
 
The Recipient list is different from what's in my "Contacts". The lists are
not the same. That's the problem. I can who I need the message to go to
when I open the 'Contacts' folder but they are not there when I select
"Recipient" in the new message. Any idea why?
 
The Recipients list is the same as the Contacts list for me. I don't
know why they are different for you.
