Hi there,

I am trying to import .pst files from a back up made on my old
computer, burned to cd (to place on the new machine).
This is what happens:
File|Import and Export|Import from another file or program|
Then I hit browse and choose the file from the cd drive, and it tells
me that the file isn't accessible to me. Access is denied, you do not
have permission, blah blah blah.
I tried copying the file to the desktop and importing it from there,
which also denies me access.
I also get that message when I try just opening it instead of
importing it.

Can anyone help? Pretty please?
 
Copying to CD marks the file as Read Only and Outlook requires full
read/write access, locate the file on your hard drive > right click on it
and select Properties and then un-check the Read Only checkbox.
