Question about Outlook Express

Greetings,

Something odd started happening yesterday in my Outlook 2011. The prefixes to my responses to meeting and appointment invitations, { Accepted: Tentative: Declined: } are being translated to Chinese. So instead of responding to the invitation with Declined: Staff Meeting, I'm sending 已拒绝: Staff Meeting.

Has anyone seen this behavior? I've restarted Outlook and the Computer. I'm on 10.9.4. System language is set to US English.

Thanks.

I have been trying to add a public folder to a MacBook Air using Outlook 2011. I did the usual Tools > Public Folders and subscribed to the folder and the database within the folder. However for some reason, when I go to calendar to check the box, it doesn't appear so I can't access the folder.

I have confirmed the permissions are correct and tried to restart Outlook, but the public folder still doesn't show up in Calendar, despite being subscribed.

Any help would be great,

Thanks.

I currently work with Outlook 2011 for Mac. I have been inundated with international spam, and I know there is a way to literally check boxes to block email from domains from other countires in Outlook for PC, but this option is unavailable for Mac.

Is there a workaround? All of the 100+ spam messages I received daily are from international email accounts.

MANY MANY thanks in advance.

One of my clients is having a really weird issue with Outlook on her Mac. 90% of the time she is able to connect to our exchange server (port 993) and get her email but every once in a while she will have emails that don't show up in her inbox. She will receive them on her phone and they will show up in outlook web but they just don't show up in her outlook 2011 inbox. What is weird is that she'll use the search bar in outlook to search by the subject line of the email she did not get and it will show up in the search results. Once she closes out of the search results, it will show up in her regular inbox. What? Can anyone help me figure out this strange issue? 

Outlook 2011 with IMAP (993)

Exchange Server 2007

I've seen the answer concerning resetting the default email viewer to become the native Mac Mail app.  It did not help.

Some history:

  I decided to transition from regular Outlook 2011 use to Mail use when I encountered the following error using Outlook:

Error -17997 - database could not be rebuilt

Mail runs fine on my Mac, and for at least the last 24 hours I have used it exclusively to read and write emails that have recently arrived.  Outlook, on the other hand, cannot run more than 5 seconds without crashing -- nor do I want to run it.

I have been able to set preferences as follows:

Run Mail:

Preferences -> General ... Set 'Mail' as default

Run Outlook:

Preferences -> Default Application ... Box is unchecked "... email, contacts and calendar"

Rebooted the Mac

Now, when I try to access files of type *.eml, it _attempts_ to run Outlook (with a crash 5 seconds later).  I can use the context-sensitive menu when right-clicking the *.eml, but I have to use Mail as the _second_ menu choice, and it is quite tedious.

One of the technicians at the local Microsoft Answer Desk laid his hands on the Mac, and seemed to effectuate a fix using a p-list somewhere.  However, online, I see that Mircosoft Answers only recommends removing 

com.apple.mail.plist.lockfile

which still results in no fix for the Outlook-defaulting-as-reader.

Help.

I know exactly what has caused this problem so I'm hoping not to have to reinstall and loose my categories etc.

I have several emails set up on Outlook 2011 and one I do not use much - sent an email and requested SSL (as got a warning). I selected a few different options on requesting the SSL - not sure on what it meant but wanted to be safe and now it's hanging so I'm unable to inform exactly.

I have tried deleting the preference etc.. all suggestions from this article. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2409331/en-us does anyone know what I can do to stop it hanging?

I would love to be able to just delete this account from preferences and I would think that would solve it, but after ten seconds in it hangs so I'm unable.

Grateful of any guidance.

I had a problem with outlook 2011 crashing and closing down, so i uninstalled the whole Office 2011 with app cleaner and reinstalled office. But now all my office components i.e word,excel,powerpoint and outlook are crashing and closing down. The error with outlook is as below:
