I am running Mountain Lion, on a top-of-the-line Mac Pro - 64 Gigs of memory, solid state (SSD) hard drive, fastest possible processor. I am connected via Outlook 2011 to an Exchange server. I've noticed that recently, when I search for emails in the "magnifying
glass" field at the top right of the window, I get the color pinwheel spinning and a slowdown, as it tries to search. Yes, I have a lot of email, but my machine is very fast and it should not be slowing down like this (and it did not, until recently). I've
checked my disk using Disk Utility, I have plenty of free RAM and disk space, and I have rebuilt my identity and rebooted. None of this helped. Any idea what I can do to prevent this slowdown when searching for emails?
When typing in the notes section of an outlook contact, my notes will frequently just disappear. I've gotten in the habit of clicking save (a real pain) constantly while typing notes but even after clicking save the notes can suddenly disappear. I don't
know if it has to do with some sort of syncing to the exchange server or not but its a real pain.
help?

Hi-
In hours of searching I have not found a definitive answer to this question.
I am visually impaired, In Outlook for Mac 2011, is there a way to change the default font for composing, and/or reading mail messages. I am aware of the zoom and other features, however can there be a change in the default font that does not change
the font the receiver of the e-mail sees?
Thank you.
Hi,
I have a problem when performing a sync between my outlook for mac and the exchange server of my company. During the sync process every recurring meeting that is being synced extends the meeting time and change the original time of the meeting. For example
a weekly recurring meeting that was scheduled for Wednesday 11:00AM-11:30AM changed the time to be 5:00AM-6:30AM. When the meeting was not set by me it appears for all other participants at the correct time.
I have tried multiple time to cancel and rest the meetings and the issue repeats every time a sync is done.
My exchange account is synced with multiple devices windows laptop, iphone, ipad and a macbook.
Did any one experienced this issue and have a solution?
thanks in advance,
Ron
Hi All,
It seems this (or a derivative of it) is not going to be anything new on here or to the wider world, but hopefully someone can help.
In a nutshell, I work from home and use Office for MAC 2011 Business Edition via an iMac. Using Outlook as the primary email, I am having issues with what and how I write out an email and how it appears to my clients when they see it or read it at their
end.
Now I have seen discussions from the past about Pixels and Points, conversion etc, but having spoken to a Font expert (its his living) he has pointed out that despite not understanding how to fix it, its not a pixels and points issue.
Examples:
1.) Email sent in calibri 14 - appears in Times NR 12 to others. Spaces are either added or removed somehow, and randomly other lines may increase or decrease in size. Some copying and pasting was included within it, but formatting was checked, cleared
within Text edit, then re-entered.
2.) Email sent in Arial 13 - Most of text appears ok, except for 1 or 2 lines that change to Times NR (of various sizes). In one case, only 1 letter from a line was strangely adjusted. No copying and pasting occurred in this email at all.
Most clients will be viewing these emails from a PC as opposed to MAC.
The frustration and annoyance with all this is unbelievable, and looks so unprofessional its untrue! Hence my stress and desperation to get this sorted.
Any help, even if its someone telling me that MS and Apple have stated it simply cannot be solved, would be appreciated.
Thanks,
MrCueball
My calendar disk usage on the server is rather large. I can not find a good way to locate what in my calendar is utilizing so much space. This was easy in Outlook on Windows, but I can not find a good way to identify and delete those calendar entries
which are utilizing the space. Please help.
Hi
I am hoping someone can assist with this. My hard-drive on my iMac died on the weekend, I have a new one installed. I have all my files backed up on an WD Essential for Mac external drive, last done about 3 weeks ago. All the documents etc are there, I downloaded them last night and it says the last backup was 3 weeks ago. However when I retrieve them from the drive and copy to the new hard drive the Main Identity version appears to be one from December 2012? Why would the Main Identity file and all its contents (contacts, mail etc) not be a backup of the version of my mail from about 3 weeks ago like everything else?
Otherwise I have lost about 8 months of mail which is a problem.
Appreciate any thoughts. I hope this is the correct forum.
When I paste an image into an outgoing email, it sends fine and when that email is viewed on my IMac it is perfect.
However, when that email is received on a PC or other device (iPhone etc), the image is duplicated. Every email I send from my Mac in Outlook 2011 with an inserted image responds this way on the other end when read on other devices. Please explain.
I'm having an issue using mail merge on my mac. I have a signature set up in Outlook with my company logo that works just fine if I am sending emails however when I try sending emails using mail merge the image in my signature no longer shows up on the
recipients end.
What is the workaround for this?
In Outlook for Mac, I have no Clip Art, Symbols and Shapes in my Media Browser. How do I install or activate these tools?
