Windows 10: How to sync all Outlook emails from old PC to new PC?

Hello,

I got a new PC and I am using the Mail app with Outlook. But in the new PC it only shows the mails received after I got the new PC. Is there a way to sync all mails to the app?

Thanks!

Sync Outlook to another PC

An Outlook file format .pst would suggest you're still using POP email. Change your email account to IMAP and you won't need to sync Outlook <> Outlook - you will sync with your email server instead. And your Outlook file will become an .ost extension file.


Being able to change to IMAP email account is probably the reason MS saw it unnecessary to enable synching between devices.

 

transferring email files from old pc to new pc

Alright. I believe what I'd suggest first is to install the logical successor to Windows Mail, which for Windows 7 onward would be the Windows Essentials pack's Mail program. Install it
from here onto your new Windows 10 computer. This is actually just an updated version of the Windows Vista mail, and it can accept the exported emails from your old PC.

Once all your emails are into that program, fire up Outlook on the same PC and it can import from it using these steps: Migrate from Outlook Express or Windows (Live) Mail to Outlook - HowTo-Outlook

 

Transferring Outlook 365 licence to new pc

Hi All,

I recently bought a new pc as my old one is dying!
The first thing I wanted to do was get my email up and running on the new pc so I exported my Outlook (365) data on the old one to a .pst file. So far so good.
On my new machine I accessed the Office 365 site and opened my account and set it up on my new pc.
I then imported the .pst file to the new instance of Outlook in the new pc. So far so good.....ish!
All the email folders and content showed up with the remark "This pc only" in brackets and the Contacts and Calendar appeared is inbox files, also marked "this pc only" in brackets.

I have since found a site online that says the normal steps are to go to the Office 365 site, sign in, then delete the old pc from the list before setting up the new one and importing the .pst file.

So my question is what I should do now.

Should I delete both pcs from the account and start again, or can I simply delete the old one and everything will fall into place?

Or what?

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated as I am a bit of a techno-moron/dummy!

Thanks,
John
