Join David Rivers for an in-depth discussion in this video Adding and viewing contacts quickly, part of Outlook for Mac 2011: Shortcuts.
You might be thinking taking time to create contacts and add all of their…information can be very time consuming, and that's true.…But there are some shortcuts that we're going to look at right now.…For example, if you want to view contact information while looking at your…email, you can go to the name of the person in the header;…just hover over their name and see some information.…If you're not seeing the information, you need you can click their contact card…and this will open up their contact information so you can see it all.…
What if they aren't in contact?…Well, in that case you can make them a contact.…Let's say you receive an email from someone, you hover over their name and…there's nothing really to see there.…Go to same contact card, click that icon, and you're actually creating…a brand-new contact.…So you'll have that contact.…You can add any information you know already;…let's say you have their phone number and then Save & Close.…You can always go back to that at a later time when you gather more information.…
