Transporting or moving/copying/importing/exporting Outlook Contacts or Address Book is quite frequently required and is often a tricky task to complete. To successfully achieve it with all data intact, one needs to properly understand what the process is all about and know exactly what settings to use.

This article will serve as a guide for all those who wish to understand what the Outlook Address Book (OAB) is and how to move it between computers.

Outlook Address Book – The Basics

Each Windows PC that has Microsoft Outlook installed has a default OAB that consolidates all the Outlook Contacts folders. Contrary to general perception, the OAB is not a physical address book but is a virtual concept. It is a highly customized “View” of the Contacts folder or in other words, the OAB is just a representation of underlying Contacts folders. It is hence NOT a standalone entity and should not be thought of as such. Microsoft Outlook also doesn’t save the OAB as a file that is separate from your data store. On a local machine, the presence of the OAB is termed as a Personal Address Book (PAB). In contrast to the OAB, the PAB is a physical address book that is saved on the disk by Outlook and it is separate from your data store.

Now that we’re through with the basics, let’s get straight to the main focus of this article, that is, moving /copying the OAB and exporting / importing it.

How to copy PAB (physical OAB) to another computer

The PAB file has an extension .pab and it is created as soon as you add it to your email profile. To copy it to another computer:

  1. In Outlook Tools menu, click on E-mail Accounts -> Directory -> View or change existing directories or address books -> Next.
  2. Under “You can choose a directory or address book below to change or remove it”, click Personal Address Book -> Change. Copy the path of your PAB file that is in the “Path” box.
  3. Quit Outlook and any associated email programs and open Windows Explorer.
  4. In the address bar of Windows Explorer, paste the path of the PAB file you copied in step 2.
  5. You’ll find the PAB file in the folder that opens. From here you can select and copy the PAB file to another computer via any appropriate media. If the source and target computer are on the same network, you can even paste the PAB file in a shared folder and access it from the target computer.
