Hi I am facing this issue with Outlook 2011. I can send or receive emails on my Outlook (2011) but when i click on the permissions tab in "Folder Properties : Calendar" I am getting error "Outlook cannot connect to the exchange server to retrieve permissions" - the exchange server might be temporarily unavailable. Verify that you are connected to the server or try again later. 

1. I have tried creating a new profile, didnt work, tried re installing outlook. didnt work. Emails work but when clicked on calendar it gives the error as mentioned above. attaching a screenshot of the same.I connect via VPN mostly . 
This is my issue.  Several apps do have permissions (shown in the charms bar as having permission to use the internet for example) such as Microsoft Software Collection, Taptiles, Mahjong, Xbox video, Pinball FX2 etc etc. However not a single one shows up as an app or service that has permissions when I check my online (MSN Premium) account. I either can't sign into XBox for Solitaire or, I can't make a purchase in Xbox video or sign into Xbox Music. I've tried just about every fix short of a clean install. Since it appears to be some sort of issue with permissions, I doubt that would work.
I don't have permissions for the files in the Skydrive folder and its subfolders in my PC, despite being the file owner and an administrator and supposed to have full control.

I have not been able to find this problem mentioned anywhere, It cannot just be me. Help is appreciated.
I am trying to find my junk mail folder in my outlook.com account.  I am being sent emails but not able to view them because they are (I believe) getting forwarded to the hidden junk mail folder.  My account use to be part of family safety via a parent account and had limited permissions.  The limited permissions have been removed and the option to manage rules or see the option to do so are still not visible.  We (my father and I) have tried to edit the permissions but are unable to do so (They are greyed out).  If someone could look at my account and reset it to a default/general email account this would be great.  I can send details with a private response as needed.  We have both tried to edit permissions logged in as my father's account and mine.  Seems like the account is stuck as a restricted view type.  My younger sisters have access to all fo their features.  Please help.
Hello!

I am developing an Android app that uses a WebView to go through the OAuth flow to access some data from Hotmail / Live.com accounts. 

The issue I have is that the "Permissions Page", where the user sees the permissions my app wants to access cannot be scrolled so the user does not see all the info shown in the page:

I use OAuth for Google, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn... and the same WebView works fine. Mention that this error only happens in this "Permissions page", the page where the user enters their user/password works fine (prior to this one). 

This error is present in other apps, such as IMO, and probably many others, and I do believe that it is an error with the page served by Microsoft.

Is this a known issue? Is there a known workaround for this?

Thanks
Problem:

In Outlook Mac 2011, when trying to set permission to "autor" in my calendar for another user get the message  "outlook cannot save permissions to exchange server" . It is important to mention that "autor" permission for tasks for same user worked without a problem.

Background info:
  1. Windows SBS 2008 Service Pack 2
  2. Microsoft Exchange 2007
  3. iMac with Microsoft Office Mac 2011 (with latest updates applied)
Any help will be more than welcome.

I cannot access "Permissions" in Office 2011 for Mac. It seems as if the icon isn't active (blurred) and I cannot click to open.

Anyone who knows how to activate "Permissions" or is there another way to share my calendar with others?

Thank you in advance.
I don't want all of my LinkedIn contacts to be Hotmail/Outlook contacts. I'm on a Mac so don't have Windows 8. The Permissions options below don't lead to a solution. It just says that I have no accounts linked but all of my LinkedIn contacts were imported.

Permissions
Switch quickly between linked Microsoft accounts.
Choose what info your children can share with others online.
Connect to the accounts you use every day.
Manage the other accounts you've connected.
Manage apps and services that can access your info.


A user is trying to share his calendar with a distribution group, but receives this error:

"Outlook cannot save permissions on the Exchange server. There was an error while attempting to save permissions on the server. Please try again later." 

The workaround for now is to share the calendar individually with each group member, but as this group grows, this will be increasingly infeasible.  Can anyone steer me in the right direction?
