I have just installed Office:mac 2011 Home & Business on my new mac book pro. Before setting up my email account, i have transfer my data file, Main Identity, from my previous Entourage, and import them into Outlook before i create an email account.
Now, i have problem creating my email account. When i click on preferences>account> (Exchange account or Email account), i have problem setting up my account using Email account. It didn't response to when i click and it freeze and i have to force quit it.
It is saving my Gmail account items onto my business exchange server which is putting me over their limit..this just started when i downloaed Lion. Am I missing a step or should I reset the account loaded onto Outlook to correct the issue? Any help is
appreciated.
I have just purchased a new MacBook Air and just installed Microsoft Office 2011 Business. I want to set up Outlook to use my 'gmail' email account and am trying to set this up. When I try to open Outlook, for the first time, it asked me to select an
identity. I select Main Identity, not sure what this means, I am getting a message "Could not change to that identity. An unknown error has occurred in Outlook". Also when I selected Quit it happened. I have gone into 'preferences' 'mail, contacts & calendars
and put in my gmail account, but still get error. Eeek... What am I doing wrong?
Have just upgraded from Home and student to home and business to get outlook. When I try and use contact groups the contact group button is faded out... Any thoughts how to fix...
Have an infuriating problem with Outlook for Mac 2011. I have 4 IMAP e-mail accounts set up through Outlook.
All 4 are with the same domain - provided by Yahoo Small Business.
One of the accounts is fine with very few problems. The others ask for password authentication constantly - sometimes to the point that you can't perform another action before the next error box pops up.
Yahoo Support thought it might be a security issue and to also log in via the webmail so that the IP is recognised - but this doesn't help.
What is the problem? It looks like Apple Mail runs the same set up fine. I don't want to switch but will have to soon as this is actually preventing me from getting work done.
It is driving me crazy.
I'm working from home for several weeks. Remote access to Exchange server not available, so the server auto-forwards all email to my Gmail account.
But I obviously want replies and outbound business messages to show my work address, not Gmail, for several reasons, including:
- If the emails go via work, copies will sit on the Exchange server for access later and archive
- Not everyone knows I'm working from home, and want to keep it that way
- Don't want every Tom, Dick or Harriet selling stuff to know my Gmail address.
I can do this on PC 2010, and can do it in raw Gmail but can't see how to do it on Outlook Mac 2011 which is my preferred email client.
Please help
