I accidentally put something under a folder so it became a sub folder, I was wondering how I could undo that and turn it back in a normal folder?
Hi folks

I am currently running MS Office on a MacBook Air.   My question relates specifically to Outlook.   I am using Outlook for Mac 2011 (Version 14.2.4 (120824)).

I make extensive use of folders to organise my email but in recent months they have become somewhat unpredictable.  

I have two issues that I'd appreciate some guidance with:

1.  The main problem is that I can't rename newly created folders.   It creates the folder without a problem and calls it 'Untitled Folder'.   If I do either a slow double-click or right-click and select 'Rename Folder' it will very briefly look like I can edit it (blue background) but before I can press a single key the background reverts to grey and I can't change it.  On the odd occasion I can get a single letter typed but that's it.   So, I've now got a series of folders that either start with 'Untitled Folder' and then a number, or which have just a single letter as a name, 'B' for example.   This is getting to be really frustrating.   Any ideas?  Solutions?

2.  My second issue, is on a related topic.   If I try and drag an email from my inbox and deposit it to one of the folders it won't actually move it.  If the destination folder is positioned at the top of bottom of the list of folders then it work fine but if it's somewhere in the middle of the list, it just won't work.  The 'Move' button at the top of the screen works fine but this isn't the most efficient option.   Any thoughts?

Many thanks

Stuart

Can only see "Inbox" and "Deleted". No sub folders I created in Hotmail on my computer are viewable on my Ipad

and these folders were very important to me because of family contacts, how do I get the folder and the sub  folders back?? i am so upset!
i have to set a password to my outlook folder and sub folder, how can i do it?
Have had account for two years, during this time have created many sub directories un der the main direcotry "Gibbs" now all but the very last sub directory "westoff Wills" are gone.  Would like to know if all the other sub directories can be recovered.  This happened three days ago.
i have microsoft 2011 for mac.  i know how to set up multiple email accounts to my outlook but how do i get them to set up in separate sub folders within my inbox?
Spontaneously Outlook 2011 does some sort of updating of the local database.

This time my computer re-booted when it was about 80-90% done. This sub sequentially led to all emails received after June was removed locally, on 2 different exchange accounts and my gmail account (The e-mails ended up in the archive in gmail.).

So not only did it remove them locally it wiped them from the servers as well somehow!


Has anyone experienced this? Any solution as to recover?
As for my school exchange account i could see the emails in the recover folder, but when i chose all and recover selected they disappeared.....

Not to impressed by outlook right now.
I'm running WLM under Windows 7 64-bit. I use custom storage folders with a primary header folder then dated sub folders. Today I transferred highlighted emails from my input folder to one of the dated sub folders. I found that all the transferred messages were exactly the same. There was also an identical message in the Primary header folder but when I deleted it all the messages in the sub folders, when I tried to open them, resulted in a 'Cannot be Found' message. I've tried the WLM repair function via the Control Panel but the result is still the same. I've not has this problem when I transfer single emails from the input folder to Storage but only when I select a group of emails & try to transfer them to a Storage folder.

I cannot link my new outlook.com account with Microsoft Outlook 2012.  I have never experienced these problems with my hotmail account, I simply downloaded the connecor and completed the add account sub menu.

 

I have tried to add a new account, using my new outlook.com details, all to no avail!

 

What do I do now?

 

Thanks in advance.
