Hi,
We've been repeatedly trying to connect 3 email accounts (Kerio, Office 365 and Gmail) to Outlook 2011 installed from Office 365. We're facing 2 problems
1. Outlook can't seem to authenticate email accounts. When we try to remove the account and put it back in, it works. After a few hours, the issue below appears. This is true not only for Gmail but also for Office 365 and Kerio.
2. passwords are not saved perpetually. After a day or two, Outlook prompts us to type in the passwords again for all 3 accounts.
We've tried this approach for the "outlook cannot find server" issue without any luck: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2409268/en-us; and we've tried this approach for the password issue: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2011-macoutlook/password-wil-not-be-remember-in-outlook/470b1521-eaf5-411c-b070-276de2629cc5 but it was not resolved.
Additionally, we've tried to remove all the accounts and put them back in, reinstall Office 2011 several times over, and change the proxy settings and open all required ports in the network.
Kindly requesting assistance on these 2 issues.
I set-up Outlook using IMAP (and used the IMAP setting on my iphone as well). I have 2 issues:
1) The only way I can view emails (received/sent) on my Macbook Pro is to click on My Computer or INBOX
2) The only way I can view emails (receive) on my iPhone is to select all email accounts
Our mail is hosted by YOURHOST.COM and if I view my emails directly on the server account, I can see only about 150 of the 7000 emails I have on my Outlook (when viewing emails on in my INBOX). These same 150 emails match exactly the same emails if I click on the email account I set up on my MacBook and as well as the 150 if I view only the email account on my iphone.
I sent a test email to my email account. It showed up immediately on my iphone, on my Macbook and on the mail server. But after about 1 minute, it was automatically deleted from my iphone and the mail server. I can also, only view the test email on my iphone by clicking on my INBOX or ON MY COMPUTER.
I am not running this outlook account anywhere else except on my iPhone and MacBook Pro.
I am using OSX 10.6.8 and version 14.3.9 of Outlook for Mac 2011.
Hope someone can help me; I've been to the Genius Bar 5 times and on the phone with YOURHOST about 15 times. Apple advised me today that it seems like my Outlook is operating like a POP account; however it is set up as IMAP.
First, let it be known that I am working with 2 macintosh computers.
I moved my outlook account from one computer the other, and successfully transferring all of my account attributes (contacts, folders, emails, etc). However, I can no longer receive incoming emails on either my old computer (which still has the account synced) or my new one. I can send emails, no problem
I did not make any changes to the account information; I copied it perfectly. There are no changes made to the incoming server, both are POP, it's exactly the same. There were no changes made to my old computer, except that I exported my data file. I had no problems yesterday.
One other thing that might have an impact is that I moved from Outlook 2010 to Outlook 2011.
Does anybody have insight? (please don't recommend restarting my computer - it's been done)
Hallo
bekomme seit 2 Wochen bei jedem Rechnerneustart folgende Meldung:
Dann dauert es 1-2 Stunden bis eine Aktualisierung stattfindet und ich Outlook benutzen kann.
Beim nächsten Rechnerstart kommt wieder die selbe Meldung.
Bitte um untersützung bei der Abhilfe des Problemes.

I'm having this repeated issue where I open an attachment from a co-worker, work on & re-save the document, only to discover after closing the doc that I've saved it (again) to the dreaded Outlook Temp folder. It then takes a while to navigate to that folder & find my doc or, alternately, if I close OutLook or the program I'm working in crashes (too often w/ Microsoft apps), I lose the doc forever.
So my question is, how can I bypass the Outlook temp folder altogether? Or is it possible to insure that, if I open an attachment and save it, it won't save to the Outlook Temp folder?
I recently switched our primary CAS servers over from a single exchange 2010 cas/mailbox/hub server to a couple new exchange 2013 CAS/Mailbox servers. Exchange 2013 has cu3, and is hosted on windows server 2012. Anyone who has their mailbox hosted on one of these exchange 2013 servers has an issue where they must click the send/receive button to get new messages downloaded to their client. This is only the case for outlook 2011 for mac client. Activesync clients, mac mail, OWA, and Outlook 2010/13 all behave normally.
Where can I look or what can I check to troubleshoot this issue?
I am trying to import an mbox folder (from cpanel webmail) into Outlook for Mac 2011 (latest version)
When I select 'file, import folder' the mbox file i have downloaded from my webmail is greyed out so that I cannot select it to import.
I have checked the 'get info' properties and permissions are set to reat/write on the mbox file
if i change the properties of the file to view it with Text Edit, I can see all the characters of text so I know there is information there
The file size if 663 kb
The file extension is .mbox
I'm not an IT person - just a very frustrated small business owner (completely frustrated)
Is there anyone who can give me a straightforward answer to make this work. The software is still under warranty but I've given up trying to get help from Microsoft Support.
Is it possible to sync the SkyDrive calendar with your Office for Mac 2011 Outlook calendar?
Thanks very much
