Question about Outlook Express

I am running Office for Mac 2011 (14.4.9) using an Apple MacBook Pro running Yosemite 10.10.3.

When I am in my inbox, I keep getting a message at the bottom of my screen saying "Updating server".  It keeps downloading the contents of my inbox roughly 18,000 e-mails.) It has done this 3 times over the last 3 days.

I can send e-mails instantaneously but can only receive e-mails once per day.

I already created a new identity but the problem is still happening.

I am able to receive and send e-mails instantaneously with Apple mail.  My Apple mail and Outlook are both connected to my G-Mail account which is also fine.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

I recently have office 365 migration through outlook 2011 for mac. I managed to migrate all my subfolder inside my inbox and successfully migrated to office 365. I have thousands of emails snycing and now I received my latest emails and it went through. But recently I noticed that the syncing stops under outlook error logs and it will never continue, it stops like "uploading... 1/6481" and it will not sync at all.

Can someone help me to fix this error?? Thanks in advance.

I've had Office for Mac 2011, including Outlook, installed & working properly for a few years until a little over a month ago. Outlook no longer works as an email client. I submitted a post several weeks ago outlining the problem, but only received one response that did not help in getting it running again.

This post is only about how to remove & re-install Outlook, OR if that is not possible, how to remove & re-install the entire Microsoft office for Mac 2011.

I would be quite happy with only a link to the instructions if they are complete and deal with the removal from a 2009 Mac Pro running OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.5.

I am running Outlook version 14.1.0 on the latest version of Yosemite.

I cannot set up an email account because for some reason when I click on Tools > Accounts, the page for adding an account is unresponsive. Furthermore, the red and green traffic lights to quit and expand are greyed out (don't know if this is normal).

Any ideas?

I have an Yahoo Mail account which I set up min OUTLOOK 2011 on a Mac OS X 10.9.5

This email account is also setup on Outlook 2010 on my Windows Laptop.  The problem that I have now is as that In keep getting a pop-up on MAC and Windows Outlook asking me for my user name and password; even after I selected the option to remember the password. As a result, my outlook on MAC and Windows does not sync my emails nor does it send emails.  I did send and recieve when I first set up this account on Outlook. I can however view and send emails on Yahoo itself, but not on Outlook for MAC or WIndows.

I've been informed that this has something to do with POP/IMAP/SMTP forwarding on Yahoo itself; I went into my Yahoo account to check and set these settings, but still no luck.

Any advise on this will be appreciated as this is a matter of urgency.

Thank you in advance for your assistance....

I have multiple email addresses all of which are configured IMAP but only 4 are GMail accounts. All other IMAP email addresses sync to Outlook correctly.

I have the latest Mac OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.3 and latest Outlook Version 14.4.9 (150325).

The GMail accounts have synced previously but all stopped syncing on 13/04/2014 at 5:07 PM approx.

No matter what I have tried, new profile, new user, new settings etc etc as mentioned in numerous forums, nothing will fix the problem.

Has anyone had the same problem and finally fixed it with these latest versions or is it just a problem that the world's 2 largest computer companies can't fix or just want to ignore all the poor users who have paid hard earned cash to buy their products.

I have recently purchased a new MacBook Pro (OS X Yosemite 10.10.2) and transferred Office 11 from my old computer. Now, on Outlook 14.4.9 (I think it's for Home & Business, not the student edition) I try to make entries into my Outlook Calendar, but they won't show up. When they occur the computer sounds alerts. They just don't show up visually on the screen, on the calendar. I called Microsoft, and the rep said I need to add an email account, but it would cost me for her to tell me how to do that. I checked on my old computer, and I see no indication of any email being added, ever. I use the Mac's Mail pop account--the stamp at the bottom of the screen--for email. What am I doing wrong? Do I add my Mac/Mail email address to Outlook?

Thanks,
