Export Yahoo Address book to Hot mail?
-
I have had such difficulty in e-mailing pictures to my family and friends and would like to export the Yahoo Address Book to my Hotmail e-mail address. When I tried to do this I did not see Hotmail listed as a place to export. I tried one of the offered accounts but was not able to do it that way either. My gift is not in using computers and often find what I think should be a simple task turn into an exercise in futility. I have even thought of doing a stand up routine about my experiences but maybe no one would get it because they do not have the problems I have. My children walk around inside a computer with ease but for me it is not like that at all. If you have any suggestions to how to accomplish this feat please dumb it down so I can understand. Thanks for your help in this matter and if you are the one to answer my queary I will be most greatful and offer you a sincere "Thank You." Ted

It doesn't appear that Yahoo offers that function, although Hotmail does, not that it does you any good since that's your destination. Looks like you're going to have to do it manually or you can forward an email from each person in your Yahoo address book to your Hotmail account, and once they're in Hotmail, save the address...assuming Hotmail has that same function as Yahoo. That's the best I can do for ya. Good luck.
