My Outlook 2011 creates a backup when I start it up and switches my identity from Main to a backup.  Rebuilding the identity seems to resolve the issue temporarily but it always returns.  I have also tried reinstalling to no effect.

I am currently using an exchange account and I have another user's exchange inbox coming in also.

Feel free to ask questions! 
I have Outlook 2011 set up as my primary e-mail on my MacPro desktop. I recently set it up  on my laptop for traveling. The laptop account will receive mail but it won't send mail. It displays a variety of error messages like "relay not permitted".

I have tried changing the settings for the outgoing server, but nothing seems to work.

I would appreciate any advice
Sort it out!!!  Get the Mac linked up to Windows Live Mail etc.

Dear Everyone.

 

I use only Mac software, apart from Blackberry Desktop software, which gave no problems.  Recently I purchase Microsoft Office 2011, only Excel, Word and Powerpoint, however Outlook was installed but not activated.  Very soon I noticed duplicates in my Address book and subsequently on my Iphone.  This also appeared on my Blackberry when I next synced it.  I want to follow your procedure to clear all duplicates, however since I never activated Outlook (One has to pay extra to Microsoft), I cannot turn off SyncServicesAgent.  (I cannot stop it in the Activity Monitor, it simply starts up again after a few seconds).  I do not ever plan to use Outlook, it caused same problems before and I was forever deleting duplicates, hence me using Mac programmes such as Mail only, with no problems any more.  How do I get rid of Outlook?  I also noticed my Microsoft User Data, especiall 2011 Identities, is over 50gig large!!  Why is it so and can you tell me if I can delete this?  Please help!!  What is wrong with all the Microsoft Engineers out there????

When opening an email, I can only see the senders name not their email address. So for example it will show:

Mickey Mouse

If you hover over the name (assuming it is not in your address book) it it will bring up a window showing the name "Mickey Mouse presence unknown"
Double clicking or right clicking brings no options to see the email address.

If the contact is in your address book the on hover window will still say: "Mickey Mouse presence unknown" and then show the contacts telephone nos. If you click on the contact icon beneath this - it brings us the contact record - but no indication of which email address the email was sent from. So if your contact has multiple email addresses you have no idea which email address the email came from.

This is completely unlike entourage which will show the name and email address as follows: Mickey Mouse <*** Email address is removed for privacy ***>

Any ideas how I can get this to work in Outlook 2011 ??
Any hints as to how I get them on (can get my gmail folders though).
Does anyone have any idea when Office for Mac 2011 will be updated for the new Macbook Pro Retina Display?
I would like to Export all emails and contacts from my Outlook for Mac to a USB drive so that it can be used in PC for Windows. I tried following the steps in Outlook, i.e. Export...to .olm files but I get faiure messages plus need to rebuild the Database using MS Database Utility. When I follow this instruction, after several hours it gives a message that the database cannot be rebuilt. I have important work related emails since 2003 which needs to be kept and transfered to my successor.
the office windows could save the emails received by the machine microsoft exchange through a folder. I can do the same in the office mac? I just bought a mac and I'm a little confused by the tool's office, as I have a small space on the server would be important to download messages from the exchange and clear the mailbox server, I have no problems boxful. in waiting. att.

I purchased Office for my macbook air, but when I tried to download it I got a warning.  It appears that the version I purchased (includes Outlook) has more memory than the little Air...is this the case?
