My work computer has 3 address books - 1 personal address book, 2 collected address book, 3 work related address book. After a couple of years I would like to tidy up my address books & cut & paste some of them from here to there. However there seems to be no cut & paste or copy & paste feature that I can locate anywhere???? I can't drag & drop an address from one to another either. Can anyone please help BevN

Cut and paste a whole contacts information has never available because it entails different components. Cut/Copy and paste has always been available if you are only selecting one part of the information, but this means you have to open a specific contacts Properties.

How to drag and drop contacts between address books: In the left Directory Pane, select the address book containing the contact you want to move. You should see a list of contacts in the right Contact Pane.

Drag & Drop process:

  • Left click and hold down on a contact in the list to grab, then drag that contact to the left and hover over the address book where you want to put the contact. Then release the mouse button to drop into that address book.

You can move more than one contact.

  • Hold down 'Ctrl' key and use mouse to select and highlight various contacts.
  • then use the D&D process - (left click, hold down on any highlighted contact to grab all highlighted contacts).
