Windows 10: Add Contacts to People - from Bell account

Hi all,
I just set up another computer at work, Win10 Pro, and Im adding email accounts to Mail.
This includes Bell accounts which are not listed and have to go under "Other" IP/POP. No problem.

But when I wont to import contacts from these Bell accounts, the People app does not offer "Other"??!!??
There is only the "Advanced" option, which is complicated / for techies.

So- how can I import contacts in People from a Bell account ... no option for Bell in drop-down list??

Thanks

:)

 

Deleting contacts from Windows 10


When you say Windows Mail Live are you referring to Mail app or Windows Live Mail?

I suggest you to try the steps provided below and check if it helps.

• Open Windows Live Mail.
• Press Ctrl + 3 using your keyboard. Right-click on the contact to delete it if it is a single contact.
• Highlight all contacts by pressing Ctrl + A.
• Click Delete located on the Ribbon bar.
• Click OK when you see the message These contacts will also be deleted from Hotmail, Messenger, and other Windows Live services.

After following the steps above, all your contacts that you have manually added to your account will be deleted however, contacts coming from third-party sites such as Facebook will not be deleted unless you remove Facebook from your account.

For Mail app:

Open People app then delete the contact.

Hope this helps in resolving the issue. If the issue persists, do get back to us. We will be happy to assist you.

People app not syncing google contacts


I have the release Windows 10. I have successfully linked my google account, and mail and calendar seem to work fine. But not the people (contacts) app. The account is listed in People, I can tell it to sync, get no error message, but no contacts arrive. Am I missing something?
