Question about Outlook Express

I am sending emails that are perfectly typed yet when they reach the other end there are many typos (letters missing from a number of words.)

I just cc'd myself on and email and was shocked to compare the version in my Outlook sent box and what arrived at the other end.

Hi,

I recently had to remove my email account from Outlook 2011 and re add to fix some issues.

Before I removed it I had emails in the 'on my computer' section which were all archived from my account.

Now that I've re added the account the 'on my computer' section is there but all my archived emails aren't appearing.

Where can I find the default save location for these archived emails on the mac and re add them so they can be read through Outlook again?

I appreciate any thoughts or suggestions.

Thanks

I recently was trying to create space on my MAC and copied the entire Documents folder onto an external drive.  I then deleted the Documents folder on my Mac.

When I opened Outlook it wanted me to create an account :-(

Realising my error I copied back the MicroSoft User Data folder into the Documents folder.

When I opened Outlook most of my emails were back, but there was one Exchange account missing (which I can get to via Mac Mail).  I also noticed that the emails stopped around the beginning of June 2015 - which is the date that I moved from an old Mac to my current Macbook Pro.  I see that all three accounts emails stop at the same time (02 June 2015).  It's like Outlook has regressed back to when I switch from my old Macbook to the current machine.

More critically though, all my folders under "On my computer" have gone. There's an old backup (see screenshot below), but I had a huge folder structure where I cataloged all my old emails (while trying to keep my inbox small and keeping the exchange server clear).

I know about toggling the "On my computer" flag under to make it appear or disappear, that's not the problem.

I have tried to restore my "Office 2011 Identities" from from daily "Time Chain Backup", but the folders (and files) do not appear.  BTW, the restored backup is 12Gb, so there's a lot of data there.

It may be relevant, but when I restore the identity and run Outlook it automatically runs the rebuilding database application.  Only then does Outlook run.

I have Outlook 2011 in Mac Air.

Need a prompt before deleting mail, like "are you sure you want to delete..."

I read one should open File and then Options etc, but I have no Option line in the File folder...

Appreciate your input!

Hello,

This week I renamed (only renamed) a folder in Outlook 2011 for Mac.

When I closed the program and went back in ... there were DUPLICATE folders with the same name.

So I deleted one ... (carefully) ... but it deleted BOTH.

So then I needed to restore the data from a Time Machine backup, which does not store the Database file, which means I had to Rebuild the identity, which Failed.   The identity uses 7.5 GB of space and there is 500 GB space on the drive with 250 GB free space.

Been quite a disaster really.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Hello,

What is the best way to merge two Calendars within Outlook 2011 for Mac?

I tried to do this earlier in the week, using the list method to drag all calendar items from a non-default calendar into the default calendar so that only the default calendar had any content and all was in one place.

So I then deleted the non-default calendar as it was showing as empty ... and I did this carefully ... yet Outlook DELETED BOTH CALENDARS.

So then I needed to recover from a Time Machine backup, only to discover the Database file is NOT STORED by Time Machine (astonishingly) and that I needed to Rebuild the Identity.

Rebuilding the Identify failed on Step 4 with a -180000 message (I can't remember now exactly) so this has sent life into a tailspin for 3 says all because I was trying to simplify my Calendars (I don't even know why I had 2 Calendars in the first place).

I also tried Exporting but then it ended up DOUBLING every entry in the calendars when I re-imported the .olm file

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Hello,

Is it more efficient for Outlook 2011 for Mac to store folders underneath the Inbox ... or, to create separate folders outside of the Inbox entirely.

I have over 50 e-mail accounts and around 180,000 e-mails for a number of business.

All e-mail is POP.

A post from Microsoft said best practice is to put it within Inbox; however, a different post I saw said this can make things sluggish or impossible to Rebuild an identity?

Thank you

Every time I open an Office program (I use Word and Excel often) I get the same database problem message.  The message tells me to rebuild the database using the utility, which I've done at least a halve dozen times.  I get the ok from the utility that it has been rebuilt, but the warning message still comes the next time.  

I've read that this is associated with Outlook.  I don't even use Outlook and when I went to open it per one of the other things I read, I'm instructed to upgrade and that I don't have it!!!

I even uninstalled and reinstalled Office and I still get the message.  

VERY ANNOYING!
