Hi Diane!
Every time I click on that Barry's AppleScripts link I end up at a webpage that says it's "closed" and provides a link to icloud.
So I tried the link from your website (where it talks about the word Script having been capitalized) but that link took me to the same "closed" page.
I also tried ODIR but after I tried and tried to make it work I emailed them and apparently ODIR is not capable of removing duplicates from Outlook 2011 for Mac at this time.
[I'm still struggling with the crash and trying to find lost emails and whatnot that you're helping me with in another thread and I'm hoping that as I'm doing that I can delete duplicates.] :)
Is there something "out there" that I can use?  I'm not at all knowledgeable about exchange accounts and whatnot so I'm looking for something that I can basically click a button to tell it to run and it deletes the duplicates.
Thank you again so much for your help!
Diane

I'm not aware of any utility to remove duplicates. Did you try the script here?

I have a 7.8 MB .zip file that I want to attach to an e-mail, but  when I attach it, MS Outlook (Mac 14.2.3) shows it to be 10.1 MB, putting it "over the allowable size limit". Where did the extra 2.1 MB come from, and is there any way I get my attachment file sizes to come across at actual size?
We have moved to using iPhones and iPad for our remote employees.   They currently use Windows PCs for their laptops.  We have several requests to give them Macbooks or iMacs that will synch like the iPhone's and ipads. 

Does Office:mac on an iMac sync to exchange with active sync?  What would be the recommendation? 
Hello,

I'm new to Outlook 2011.  I have an account configured as SMTP and sent items are saved locally in "Sent Items/On My Computer" but not in the Webmail.  I decided that IMAP is a better option for my needs so I added a new account, but configured it as IMAP.  Now, I want to move my sent messages from "Sent Items/On My Computer" to "Sent Items/On My IMAP Account".  Everything in the same computer.

Can this be done?  How can I accomplish this?

Thanks a lot for your help,

Carlos Antonio


I made a backup of all my contacts, emails, etc from Outlook 2011 for Mac about 3 weeks ago. I saved the file in an olm  file. Now I am trying to import the data from such back up because I lost all my contacts.

When I try to import I get the following message: "Import incomplete. Outlook did not import all your data. You stopped the import process before it was completed".

I tried using another .olm file I made only for calendar. I get the same answer.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Need a help, How can we export a single folder in outlook for mac so that it can be transferred to another computer running outlook for windows. I have tried the procedure in outlook for windows & it works you can export a folder to a .csv file and then import it to another computer running outlook. Someone please help.
I use Outlook 2011 to collect email from a Network Solutions hosted IMAP mail service.  Over the last several weeks, I've noticed issues with mail being picked up by Outlook HOURS after it arrived.

In troubleshooting this, I noticed that, despite the fact that a new message is sitting in my Inbox, I cannot convince Outlook to go get it.  Right-clicking to bring up the contextual menu on the Inbox and then selecting "Synchronize Now" does nothing.  Using the "Send And Receive All" does nothing.  Heck, even "Repair Folder" does nothing.  Sometimes quitting Outlook and restarting it does the trick, but not always.

I have tried changing the time in the "Sync all IMAP folders every ___ minutes".
I have tried checking and unchecking the "Use IMAP IDLE if the server supports it" option.
I have tried changing the time in the "Refresh server connection after ___ minutes".

I have verified that Outlook 2010 for Windows operates properly, thereby eliminating server-side issues.

I have deleted the IMAP account in Outlook, repaired the database, and then added it back.  After the initial sync, the problem reappears.

I have created a new user in Mac OS X and then launched Outlook from there and the problem persists.

I have installed a fresh copy of Mac OS X (Lion) and Office 2011 on another Mac and have verified the problem there.

I created a new email account in our Network Solutions hosted IMAP service and have verified the problem with the new account through all of the permutations above.

I am running the latest version of Mac OS X Lion (not Mountain Lion) and Outlook 14.2.3

The one thing I did notice, through all of the above tests, including the ones with the new email account, is Outlook is doing some sort of IMAP communications with the server even when Send And Receive All is not set to run, and even when all of the "sync" options are turned off.  According to the log (yes, I did have logging turned on), the following shows up every 4 minutes whether I have Outlook syncing or not:

[   204049us, d      6885us] Outlook Exchange Web Services: Engine[IMAP folder ]: There are 5 potentially modified local records since 1/1/1904
0:0:0 [159360480]
[   204049us, d         0us] Outlook Exchange Web Services: Scanning map for required actions
[   204049us, d         0us] Outlook Exchange Web Services: Engine[IMAP folder ]: There are 0 remote records to add locally
[   204049us, d         0us] Outlook Exchange Web Services: Engine[IMAP folder ]: There are 0 changes to push up

[   204049us, d         0us] Outlook Exchange Web Services: Engine[IMAP folder ]: There are 0 conflicting records
[   204049us, d         0us] Outlook Exchange Web Services: Engine[IMAP folder ]: There are 0 local records to push up
[   204049us, d         0us] Outlook Exchange Web Services: Engine[IMAP folder ]: There are 0 local records to delete
[   204049us, d         0us] Outlook Exchange Web Services: Engine[IMAP folder ]: There are 0 remote records to delete
[   204055us, d         6us] Outlook Exchange Web Services: ---------- Engine: Ending "IMAP folder " Sync [time:8/31/2012 2:12:43 [216514212]] ----------

All of the other log entries are of the form "[IMAP folder INBOX]" or "[IMAP folder Sent Items]".  I do not know what folder this is.  The above is from my efforts with a brand new email account.  The only folders that are automatically there are Inbox, Trash, Sent Items and Draft.  Outlook adds Drafts and Junk E-mail.  I added nothing, nor made any changes to the folder structure.  I can see no other folders through an email web interface, the Folder Browser in Outlook, or through any other mechanism.

**SO WHAT IS THIS NON-EXISTENT IMAP FOLDER THAT OUTLOOK KEEPS SYNCING?**

I am convinced that this is the key to the issue, since that 1/1/1904 date just smells bad.  (and, yes, I have reset the NVRAM and the PRAM on my computer and this shows up on both computers, so it's very unlikely to be a hardware issue).

Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.
I'm running Mac Outlook 2011 (with all updates applied) on Mountain Lion, on a new MacBook Air. When replying to a text message, I type something like "I'm" and after hitting the spacebar, the word turns into "I'M" and the cursor goes somewhere out of the message. This happens elsewhere too in the text if I fix the aforementioned text. I did not have this problem before Mt Lion or with my previous 2nd generation MBA. 

Anyone else seeing this problem? And if so, how did you resolve it?
