Office for Mac 2014 – release date and active sync capability

25. March 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , , ,

Hi guus,

I just bought a Mac and I can see the Outlook 2011 for Mac is a bit outdated. Especially in the area of sync protocols - it doesn't support ActiveSync.

I heard some rumors that Office 2014 is gettting released for Mac this year. Would you happen to know a bit more detailed release date?

Do you know if this version will have the Active Sync protocol, so I can fully sync my outlook.com account with it? Currently I can only do email via IMAP.

Certain sender does not appear in active sync phone emails but shows up just fine in outlook.com and outlook

This happened about a week or two ago. I have a certain sender from one domain that I used get emails from with no issue. Then all of sudden this one sender does not appear on my phone if they send a new email, if they respond to one or they do a reply all I will get it on my phone. Anyone else from this same domain I get with no issues. I checked my phone and there are no rules on it or my desktop Outlook.

Phone is a Samsung Galaxy S4
Email is an old MSN account pulling email to phone by exchange active sync

Any thoughts or suggestion would be great.

Soem mails not syncing correctly with Outlook 2013

Hi there,

I recently created an outlook.com account and used Outlook 2013 to Active sync with it.

Most of the account appears to be working with one exception.

I cannot see emails sent from my work account to Outlook.com in Outlook 2013.

The emails appear on Outlook.com but do not active sync with my ost file.

Can anyone suggest what I can do to rectify this problem?

 

I have just rebuilt a clean Windows 7 machine from scratch and reinstalled Office 2013. I then recreated an active sync account with my OUtlook.com account. But this did not work.

 

Just seems strange that there is no access to what active sync allows/does not allow.

 

Regards,

Alex B

iphone contacts missing phone numbers when sync with outlook

One of our iPhone users has found that when he adds contacts in Outlook 2010, running on a windows 7 PC, connected to an Exchange 2007 server, and then using Active Sync to get the contacts to his Iphone running iOS 6.1.3 that he only gets names on his iPhone, no numbers, email addresses, etc. 

The corporate contacts are complete, it is new contacts he enters into his outlook that do not sync with his iPhone.  Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Active Sync not working

My active sync is still not working for hotmail on my iphone.  It stopped a two days ago.  I know it was down before but now the status shows hotmail is working properly.  Could there still be some residual issues?  Do I need to do something.
