I switched from Entourage 2004 to Outlook 2011 and can no longer send mass emails. My outgoing mail server says there is no limit on my account and I never had a problem with mass emails before the switch. I tried switching ports, outgoing mail servers, but since the problem only started when I switched to Outlook, it seems there may be a setting or a workflow I am not aware of. I send out a newsletter every 2 weeks to 2500 recipients and can only send in batches of 25 at a time.
Help!
I installed mountain lion and i am now unable to do a search in emails in outlook 2011.  It gives no results.  I read other threads which called for re-indexing outlook.  i have re-indexed my computer twice to no avail.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I don't know if this is specific to Mountain Lion or not but i've recently noticed my Outlook and sync slowing down..

Thought i would do some checking.. i have 13 contact categories and in total 8,516 contacts..
Now i know i don't actually have this many contacts in Outlook.. should be around 2,300 to 2,400 in total..

So i deselected all the tick boxes and went through each one.
on the No Category box it says i have 4,764 contacts
They are all blank..

I deleted them and then a message came up saying i had some sync conflicts..
Then all of a sudden they started coming back.

What is the sync process with itunes, outlook and an iphone ???
All i want is for my Outlook contacts to be on my iphone

But from what i gather, the contacts go from outlook, to address book, to itunes, to iphone ???
How does this all work and what do i need to change to have contact details go one way only - outlook -> iphone and that's it ???

This is really annoying as i changed over to Mac for work and it appeared everything is working fine..
Now it's causing my problems..

Hi,

I'm still planning a move from a desktop PC to an iMac.

I've gathered that the Calendar in Outlook 2011 won't sync with Canedar on the iMac so (I think I'm right here...) so what about Oulook 2010 running in Win7 and Parallels?

 

So,  if I use Parallels, Win 7 and Office 2010 on the iMac I assume I can sync the Outlook Calendar with my Google calendar (using google calendar synch running in Win 7) and the Calendar on iMac with Google Calendar (And either my iPad/iPhone with Google Calendar or with Calendar on iMac - don't know about that bit yet ... so first part of my question is has anyone any advice here as to the best way to achieve this sync between all devices and Outlook 2010 Calendar?)

I can acess Gmail with my iPhone/iPad to keep up with mail when out and about as well.

So the second part of my question my question is, How do I synch the contacts in Outlook 2010 with my iPhone , iPad and iMac Contacts?

Currently on the PC, iTunes syncs with contacts. Will iTunes on an iMac with OSX sync with Outlook contacts on same iMac running Parallels/Win7/Office 2010?

As always, many thanks for the help and support you guys give.

Regards

Mike

Good day,
I have a Mac with Outlook 2011 as my main address but have several accounts.

The computer blocked (mackeeper was trying to install without my consent) and I had to turn the machine off using the power button.

Since I have lost 9 months of emails and yet earlier ones are there. I made a full update to the time machine just a few weeks ago.

Having gone through your forum I thought the obvious answer was either to try to rebuild or to repair. I followed all the steps (closing all applications, copied the user file, trashed the old folder identity and copied the new one, etc.). And inspite even deleting entirely the "Main Identity" folder it keeps opening with all the other emails (except the missing 9 months) and it does not prompt to rebuild.

Please could you tell why this happened and how to effectively recover all my email.

Kind Regards
The advice given by Microsoft does not work and is totally useless. I have been trying to run Microsoft AutoUpdate to install the automatically downloaded update to 14.2.4 for my Office for Mac on my Mac-Book Air 2011 running OS.X Mountain Lion. My Office programs latest updates are 14.2.3.
When you try to run AutoUpdate Installer it wants me to Quit Microsoft Database Daemon and SyncServices Agent so I followed the advice given on the Answers on Office for Mac pages about using Activity Monitor but when I follow the resolution using the Activity Monitor as soon as the applications are given the instruction to Quit or Force Quit they just start up again so there is no way of installing the update.

Is there any other way of switching them off, e.g. at StartUp so the Updates can be installed?

So currently I can not install any updates to the Office software including ones which involve Security issues. This is not good enough. Please advise solution?

Why have Microsoft not identified and resolved this issue already? It must affect more than just my Mac.
Since I sent a large file using Outlook 2011, the program has frozen up several times. What can I do?

Why am I constantly getting this error?

What does this error mean?

How do I fix this?


This MacBook Air belongs to a VIP in our company. She is under the impression that she has received a lemon, due to the following experiences (verbatim):


Random beeping noise coming from machine. Unexplainable. No obvious pattern.

Machine randomly sounds like an airplane taking off. Fan running constantly.

Unable to view Sent folder in Outlook. Periodically.

Unable to view Sent items. Periodically.

Calendar items/invites/meetings do not display accordingly.

Unable to accept/decline meeting invitations.

Pinwheel constantly displays. Forced to reboot due to freezing.

Constantly receiving 'Data is corrupt' error message in Outlook.

Constantly receiving 'An internal server error occurred. The operation failed' in Outlook.


I understand the majority of these issues points towards the Office/Outlook application, but why don't any of the troubleshooting methods resolve or alleviate any of the aforementioned symptoms at all?


No one else in my company with this software is receiving this message.

 

I have rebuilt the database 3 times.

I have reinstalled the software twice.

All software is up-to-date.

 

Why doesn't Apple support this software?

Why doesn't Microsoft support this software?

 

Every forum I search regarding Office for Mac results in a never ending loop of both companies panning the issue off to the other and nobody takes responsibility.

 

Is there anyone out there willing to take the time to assist me and fully exhaust their knowledge to present some sort of solution towards this issue?

 

I am fully committed to this discussion and will provide any and all information needed in order to fix the issue.


Why are there other users with the same software who are NOT experiencing the same issues?


As a last resort, I am aware backing-up the profile/account and restoring the OS is an option. What if this plan of action doesn't solve anything? What if the problem persists?


My technical knowledge of Apple/Mac devices is limited, and I would appreciate any advice/suggestions/support on the matter, as this is a high priority issue and I would like to learn from this so as to avoid any similar issues that I may encounter in the future.


Thank you in advance for your help.

How do I add someone to a calendar invite without sending it to all attendees in Outlook on my Macbook Pro? The only option on the send button is "all attendees" there is no pop up screen for sending it just to new people after i click the button it just goes to everyone again!. 
How do I make an Outlook template on a Mac?
All the instructions say to create an email, then "save as" a template.
But the "save as" button is greyed out so I can only save.

thanks.
