Unfortunately, I was using Incredimail, and when trying to get into my mail, it would not let me in because I do not have flash. I tried to install flash and it would not let me. I would like to transfer my files and contacts and everything I have saved from Incredimail to Outlook. How can I do this if there is no flash?

Our software requires only IncrediMail source data (Identity) to work with. The flash player and IncrediMail are not required.
