Outlook 2011 problems with 2012 Exchange

22. May 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: ,

Hi All,

I really hope I can get some answers here. Both myself and a colleague are using Outlook 2011. I am on Maverick OS and my colleague is on Mountain Lion. We are experiencing intermittent losses of connection to Exchange 2012. Before we could just not connect to the exchange and after a period of time it would connect. Now we get an error message 'end of file reached' when trying to send an email. 

Can anyone please point me in the right direction as to how this can be resolved?

Thank you.

Outlook 2011 Time Machine Date Error

03. April 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: ,

So 2011 iMac, Mountain Lion, Office 2011 - all app versions are current.

Machine crashed. Opened Outlook after reboot and have apparently lost the last fortnight's worth of all data.

Used Time Machine to restore Outlook and it too opened to a 2 week old window.

Used MDbase Utiity to rebuild identity - - same thing - - Main Identity Date Modified option is two weeks old.

Tried early TM backup version - - same thing.  Following Data Records path for Messages folder brings up the last modified date of two weeks ago.

So does anyone have an idea how I can recover two weeks worth of lost messages, contacts etc?   I am at a loss as to what to try next.

Outlook for mac 2011

27. January 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: ,
Hi,

Any help you guys can give would be much appreciated.

We are a business with three employees using Outlook for mac 2011 version 4.3.9 on mountain lion.

We have an orders inbox that we have sent up as a shared inbox because all three of us benefit from being able to see what the state of orders is. Unfortunately now that we have three people using this we constantly getting the following error message:


if you enter the password the following message pops up:


Whether you click yes or no the first error then pops up again and the cycle continues rendering outlook unusable.

This only happens when more than one person is on outlook so it seems to me that outlook is recognizing more than one user and constantly asking for passwords as a result.

The inbox settings are as follows;


I have not blanked the password out of the above. It always comes up blank and if you enter it, the next time you open the settings box its gone.

If anyone has any idea why this happens and/or suggestions to fix the problem they would be very much apprenticed.

As would any suggestions of alternative setups that we could use to have a shared inbox.

Many  thanks

Dom


Skydrive folder cannot be found on Mountain Lion 10.8.5

Hi there,

I am using mountain lion 10.8.5. I have my Skydrive folder on my desktop where it has always been. It used to sync with my Skydrive app but now everytime I try to open the app, it quits itself within seconds and a very fleeting msg appears that it was unable to find my Skydrive Folder and that I should restart, then it disappears. I have uninstalled and downloaded the latest Skydrive app for Mac but the same thing happens. Can anyone help please? 

Thanks
Pauline

Outlook 2011 14.3.8 Contacts and Calendar events no longer synchronising since OS X 10.9 upgrade

27. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , , ,
I recently upgraded to OS X 10.9 and since the upgrade I have discovered that Apple has kindly removed the contact and calendar syncing options from iTunes.

The previous version of OS X (Mountain Lion) synced perfectly with Outlook via iCal and Apple Contacts ... now it seems the functionality has been removed.

Before embarking on an OS X downgrade I'm searching around to see a) if others have encountered the same issue b) whether anyone has been able to ascertain whether this is likely to be fixed by MS or Apple? and if so when? or lastly whether some smart cookie out there has found a solution.

OS Upgrade from 10.7 to 10.8.5 (Mountain Lion) – Problems in opening word, Excel and Power Point files after upgrade to ML

06. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: ,

I upgraded my MAC from 10.7 OS to 10.8 (Mountain Lion). Now, I am not able to open any word, excel, powerpoint and pdf files that were on my hard drive. I do have Office for MAC 2011. I am able to open the same file from my email and save them to the hard drive and then re-open it. But I am not able to open any of the files that were already saved on my MAC hard drive prior to upgrading OS to Mountain Lion. Any suggestions or advise?

Spinning pinwheel and delay when searching for emails in Outlook

17. September 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: ,
I am running Mountain Lion, on a top-of-the-line Mac Pro - 64 Gigs of memory, solid state (SSD) hard drive, fastest possible processor. I am connected via Outlook 2011 to an Exchange server. I've noticed that recently, when I search for emails in the "magnifying glass" field at the top right of the window, I get the color pinwheel spinning and a slowdown, as it tries to search. Yes, I have a lot of email, but my machine is very fast and it should not be slowing down like this (and it did not, until recently). I've checked my disk using Disk Utility, I have plenty of free RAM and disk space, and I have rebuilt my identity and rebooted. None of this helped. Any idea what I can do to prevent this slowdown when searching for emails?

Mac Pro Outlook 2011/Exchange 2010 problem

19. July 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , ,

Dear all, 

I have a very odd problem with a Mac Pro early 2008 model running mountain lion 10.8.4 (12E55). On our network there are other newer macs (imac and macbook pro) running the same software version  of mountain lion that do not experience the same problem. My machine is a clean install, picking up our network setting by DHCP (as with the working machines). It appears to be the same in every aspect of the network config as the working machines. 

The problem:

Outlook 2011 can't access the autoconfigure and manual config fails to communicate with our exchange server (2010 SP1 >rollup 4) and gives the error code -18597. This is because outlook cant access the server correctly. The exchange testing tools passes without a problem (https://www.testexchangeconnectivity.com)  when run on this machine, however when I navigate (with any browser) to https://mail.mydomain/ews/exchange.asmx I get a 403 error and no popup login screen. On all of the other macs the login appears, which indicates that the mac is talking to exchange correctly. This also happens if I run a vm with windows on, indicating that it's not a browser issue. 

I have had my ip address changed (using the second ethernet) just to check that it wasn't something on IT's firewall for my normal IP address, this made no difference.. and I have also used the same physical network port as a 'working' mac, just to make sure that it wasn't something on the switch that I am on. 

I am now totally stuck as to what the problem might be, as it appears to be specific to my mac, rather than a generic problem with macs talking to the exchange server. However, I can't see how this can be the case, unless the exchange server can discriminate between my mac and other macs in some way- it's clearly not an ip address problem as two different ip addresses (one in the 'mac' range on our network and one in the 'pc' range) show the same problem. 

Has anyone any ideas??

Thanks in advance..
