Lost of email accounts and emails – Microsoft outlook – Mac Apple

07. December 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , , , , , ,
Hi - I am using Microsoft Outlook for Mac Apple; I shut down my Mac because of a frozen programme and when I re-opened all my emails accounts, emails and contacts had vanished. They seem however to be somewhere as they appear in 'my all files'. When clicking on a email file there I get the message: 'outlook cannot open the file because it is not associated with the default identity'. 

I have seen the below tips on the net to resolve this problem but don't know which 'option' key I am suppose to use in point 2.
  1. Close Outlook.
  2. Press Option and click Outlook in the Dock - this will open a Microsoft Database Utility window.
  3. If you have more than one identity in the list, choose one that isn't bolded.
  4. Click 
    , and choose Set as Default.
  5. Close the window, and start Outlook.
 Thanks,

Caroline

wINDOWS LIVE MAIL: How do I recover an e-mail stuck in the outgoing line blocking all in-coming and out-going messages?

Attempted to send e-mail, but ATT.NET outbound refused to accept. This left it locked in the line trying to be sent, blocking all in-bound and out-bound. How do if recover or delete this e-mail to correct the mistake I made or to clear the lockup?

Identity failure / Corruption – Root cause

11. October 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , , , , ,
For the third time in a year and a half I was unable to open Outlook getting a message that my identity needed to be rebuilt. 
The rebuild failed and I had to piece together various methods gleaned from these forums and elsewhere on the net to get a semblance of recovery. 
My question is: What causes this Identity corruption? What can I do to avoid it? 
I have seen many work arounds to fix but nothing to indicate a cause.  
Thanks

How do I disable Auto Send in Outlook 2011 for Mac

06. September 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , , , , , ,

I used to use Outlook2008 on Windows, and started using Outlook2011 on Mac OS two days ago.

 

In Outlook2008 for Windows, Options menu has Mail Setup tag, and I can uncheck “Send immediately when connected” to avoid any accidental mail sending. Namely, I want to send emails manually, not automatically when connected to the net. I could not find a similar tag or option in Outlook2011 for Mac OS. How can I disable the automatic sending when connected?
