IMAP, Outlook 2013, I want my profile to be associated with my saved *.ost file. Nothing I have read solves my problem. Here is what happened...
We saved my outlook 2013 *.ost file. Then deleted my account and created a new one. Now, Outlook created a new *.ost file for that account. I want to use the *.ost file that I saved. When I try this, I get the error, "*.ost cannot be accessed because it has been configured for use with a different mailbox". Is there any way to get outlook to associate the saved *.ost file to the new account.
Tried renaming the old file and deleting the new one, but outlook just creates a new ost file *(1).ost.
Tried adding new data file, but outlook does not give me the option to add a *.ost file.
Tried converting the saved *.ost file to Thunderbird.
...
Any ideas? I would think it should be much easier than it is turning out to be.
