Hi all.

I've had Office for Mac 2011 installed for almost a year without any problems but yesterday Outlook put itself to sleep and won't wake up.

By this I mean that I had been using Outlook to send some basic messages, then closed the computer for 15 mins or so, and when I opened the computer from sleep mode, the Outlook icon was there in the dock but I could't open it.

Specifically, when I clicked the Outlook icon, the "brand" message would appear on the screen for about half a second but then disappear after a flicker on the screen.

Here's what I've tried:

• Removed Outlook from dock and tried opening from Applications.
• Deactivated the software in my account and then reinstalled the program.

I haven't installed any other software on my computer for many months, and nothing else on my computer has any apparent problems with it, including PowerPoint, Word, Excel, which are all working fine.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Andrew
