Contacts in Outlook for Mac 2011

01. November 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac
I recently switched from PC to Mac.

I exported my Outlook PST file from my PC to my Mac.
Everything seemed to work fine and I have been using Outlook for Mac for a few weeks now,

But I have noticed that in the Contacts Tab there seems to be 2 groups:
1. Address Book
2. Contacts-Outlook PST

I am not sure what the difference is.
When I click on each of these they both seem to have the same number of contacts.

Should I be consolidating the 2 and having just 1. Address Book.
And if so, how do I do this.

Many thanks to anyone who can help.

Accounts screen disabled

Hey, and thanks for any help on this...

My Accounts screen (Tools menu) has stopped allowing input.  Sometimes the accounts dialog doesn't show up at all (just a white frame where it would display) and other times it shows up but isn't responsive to clicking on any of the fields in it.  

I've backed up the main identity and rebuilt it twice, no improvement.  (and to rub salt in the wound, after the rebuild, the tasks now don't appear, even with all the filters removed.... Mercury?)

Again, the main problems:

1) can't make changes to the Accounts dialog
2) tasks have disappeared

I've rebuilt the identity twice already with no improvement.

I'm stumped and frustrated.  Thanks a million for any help....

Hello,

Has anyone found a solution to transfer emails from outlook 2011 to Windows outlook 2007?
I want to switch over to outlook 2007 for some personal reasons and want to migrate my thousands of mails stacked in different folders from outlook 2011 over to outlook 2007.

I have spent hours looking for solution but have not found any solid solution yet, also at some places I have found that its practically not possible to transfer from outlook 2011 to outlook 2007. If that's true then there is a lot of trouble coming my way, please comment and if possible suggest some solution for this situation.

All the solutions are welcome. Thanks in advance.

Help Please. Outlook wants to re-download duplicates of 10,000 existing HOTMAIL emails on the server I want to keep. 

I have let it go before and do the re-download and then deleted the duplicates when finished. However, several days later, it wants to restart again and its sucking up valuable band width and taking up resources.

Outlook is set up as:
Incoming as: pop3.live.com (995)
Outgoing as smtp.live.com (587)

Its really annoying and killing my Outlook experience. 

Please help with how to stop this.

Office 2011 for Mac

31. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac
I have been getting request to rebuild data base, and now today I have lost all my email account settings.

I could re-enter the email accounts but I have spent a lot of time setting up a folder system for emails and don't want to redo it if possible.

Is there a way to "find" my lost accounts and folders?
