Outlook.com alias folders does not show up in Outlook for Mac 2011

03. March 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: ,
At last an email domain where my preferred email address is not taken, yet. I was elated, to say the least. That is until I configured my Outlook for Mac 2011 only to find out that my Outlook.com alias folders do not show up. As a matter of fact, the only folder that is displayed is Inbox. You'd think that if my iPhone 5 is able to show the alias folders, so should the Outlook client. Right? Aren't both Microsoft products?
Any ideas other than switching back to Gmail and never looking back?

P.S. For the sake of full disclosure, I've asked this question in the Outlook.com forum too but haven't got any answers.

Windows Update caused email folders to disappear?

28. February 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: , ,
My operating system is W7 home premium.

Last night when shutting down a windows update came through. 

This morning when i booted up a dialog box appeared saying my PC was being configured.  Later in my email account (windows live mail) i found that most of my email folders had disappeared. i have tried restoring my PC to a point prior to the update but the folders have not been restored. What do I do?

Office for Mac 2011: Cannot see list of folders on Outlook home screen; cannot see the links to Calendar, Contacts, etc.

27. February 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , ,
Running 10.7.5 up to date.  When I booted up the computer this morning, I opened Outlook as usual.  The Outlook Home Screen showed my Inbox but not the links to any other folders (e.g. Sent, Drafts or any other folders I created).  In addition, I could not see the links to other Office functions like Calendar or Contacts.

Hotmail screen is completely messed up.

My hotmail screen is a long list of folders etc on the far left of the screen.
I've followed previous threads and forums, cleared the Cache and browsing history, logged on with https address and tried in both IE and Chrome. No luck. Any ideas what to try next ?

Exchange not displaying emails despite downloading them

18. February 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , ,
I set up Exchange on Outlook for Mac 2011 and it is connecting fine, downloading all my sub-folders. It says it is downloading emails (e.g. 16 in inbox and the blue bar goes to 16/16) but no emails are displayed in any folders or sub-folders. It says "connected to Exchange" in the bottom right, and "all folders are up to date". I can send emails from it Outlook for Mac, but I can't see any. OWA is working fine. I've downloaded all updates.

Can anyone help?

Thanks
Ian

How do you force Outlook on the MAC to resync all folders with the Exchange server?

18. February 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , ,
I'm an Office 365 user and I'm running Outlook on 3 MAC's and 2 PC's.  Everything is working fine on all machines except one.  The folders on that one machine are not only not in sync but they are not in order.  I tried to reset the cache on the MAC which is what it says to do to force a resync but that is not working.  The calendars are also out of sync.  On the PC, you just delete the .ost file on the local machine and the file is rebuilt and resynced automatically.  There does not seem to be a similar procedure on the MAC.

Thanks for any help.

Using Win7, 64 bit, HP Photosmart C6515 printer, I cannot correctly print anything from outlook.com. The printed page comes out with all my folders listed on left side of page; the message printed lengthwise down right side of page; all the selections of outlook printed across top of page.

How do I print a "proper" page(s) from outlook.com?

TIA

How can I set up my hotmail incoming emails to go directly to designated folders

15. February 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: , ,

How can I set up my hotmail account so that certain emails go directly to folders that I have created rather than having to move them into the folder after I have read them?

Thank you!

How to recover deleted folders in Hotmail?

15. February 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags:

Hi,
I just started using outlook 2007 and connected into my hotmail account using the hotmail connector.
It appears that I have deleted folders in my hotmail using outlook,
This happened about two days ago.

They are gone. They are not in outlook or the deleted folder in outlook.
Undelete did not recover any files/folders on my laptop. They were not moved to another folder.

They are not in the deleted folder in hotmail.
The recover link does not recover the folders only a few emails, mostly junk.

Subsequent investigation showed that my hotmail was set to delete on download.
I have now stopped that.

Can you please help me and restore the deleted folders in my hotmail account.
There are about 8 folders, including one on my pension which I really need.

Can you please help

Regards
Mick
