Why are my contacts not coming up on the People panel in Outlook - completely blank.

When I click on my People / Contacts in Office, the left panel is completely blank (where my contacts should be). My emails are in the right panel from having clicked to People from Email. I am not able to see, add, or access my contacts at all in Outlook now. I have in the past and I know I have contacts stored in Outlook.

    How do I unsubscribe from this question? My problem is resolved, and don't need to see any more posts on this topic.

    At the bottom of my email bearing the most recent post, is the statement: "Unsubscribe: On the question select the Subscribe option and then select Unsubscribe." That doesn't work. Clicking on Subscribe only shows "Subscribe" and "Subscribe to RSS Feed" -- not "Unsubscribe."

    But after looking below just now, I think I found the answer . . . leave unchecked the box that states "Notify me when someone responds to this post."

    Thank you.

    I no longer have this issue. How do I stop getting emails from this thread?

    Hi Marty

    Mine came right after a Microsoft overnight update back in November. Make sure you have all your Microsoft updates. If still a problem I suggest you delete Outlook and download a new copy.
