Tired of Outlook so I thought I would give this a try. Trying to import contacts from outlook or my office 365 account. I click Tools, Import, Import Everything and all I get is "No application to import data from found"

The Import wizard only works if you have Outlook and TB installed on the same machine, and even then it's best to import address books and mail separately (not Import Everything).

As an alternative, for the contacts, export them from Outlook as vCards, then use an add-on to import them to TB.
