My operating system is Vista Home Premium...64-bit. In Windows Mail, when I click "contacts" a window appears with my contact list, however the toolbar shows "organize, views, slideshow, burn". There is no "add contact" button so I am unable to add a new contact. When I click on help, it says "working with the pictures folder". Can anyone shed some light???

Hello cutie1989,
I think after you press the contacts tab and the new window appears, press the "new contact" tab and you get another window, you should be able to add new contacts from there.
Good luck and post your results.

Thank you for responding. The window you show is not the window I get after clicking contacts. As stated before, the only options in the toolbar are: organize, views, slideshow, burn... and the help window is titled "Working with the Pictures Folder. The window you show has everything I would like to have, but do not.

Looks right to me.:)

Definitely looks like it wants to be a Pictures folder.

Try this: Right-click somewhere in your Windows Mail contacts window then-
Customize this folder > Contacts.
