This is getting to be a nuisance...even more than an embarrassment.
Here's what goes from my Mac to other PC staff members...without my knowledge.

Thanks for anything you can doŠI hope he will 
I'm out of hereŠI'll watch for
On my way outŠanything else you need?
CongratulationsŠglad to hear it was a success...

I think I have been using ... in this area (I'm not a big hyphen fan), but I never know it's happened until someone tells me.

I am working on a Mac Pro (new this year) and Outlook for Mac 2011 v 14.1.1

I also access my emails through Outlook Exchange...I'm not sure if it happens remotely, but there must be a fix!

MSN email 25/8/2012 issue number is 51582880. the email told me that I would receive a reply about my *** Email address is removed for privacy *** email. One month later, still no reply. Why not?

My email address that I have had for 10 years has been blocked by Microsoft; along with all my friends and business connection's email addresses.  I have been told it is blocked because 'someone' may have been using it without my knowledge.  I have trying without success to reestablish my original email address. Can't figure out if it is arrogance or incompetence I am up against; or a combination of both, or?   What does one do against a huge worldwide organisation who don't care if a customer leaves their company. Phoning them to complain is not an option that is given to us.

   Does anyone have a snail mail address for Bill Gates or his top executives, where I could sent a registered recorded urgent letter.  It would be appreciated.  I don't except this kind of treatment and will not except not getting my original email address back.   Anyones help will be really appreciated.  Thank you!     

Outlook for Mac Data is Corrupt Mail could not be sent Error code: -19943

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

Why am I constantly getting this error?

What does this error mean?

How do I fix this?


This MacBook Air belongs to a VIP in our company. She is under the impression that she has received a lemon, due to the following experiences (verbatim):


Random beeping noise coming from machine. Unexplainable. No obvious pattern.

Machine randomly sounds like an airplane taking off. Fan running constantly.

Unable to view Sent folder in Outlook. Periodically.

Unable to view Sent items. Periodically.

Calendar items/invites/meetings do not display accordingly.

Unable to accept/decline meeting invitations.

Pinwheel constantly displays. Forced to reboot due to freezing.

Constantly receiving 'Data is corrupt' error message in Outlook.

Constantly receiving 'An internal server error occurred. The operation failed' in Outlook.


I understand the majority of these issues points towards the Office/Outlook application, but why don't any of the troubleshooting methods resolve or alleviate any of the aforementioned symptoms at all?


No one else in my company with this software is receiving this message.

 

I have rebuilt the database 3 times.

I have reinstalled the software twice.

All software is up-to-date.

 

Why doesn't Apple support this software?

Why doesn't Microsoft support this software?

 

Every forum I search regarding Office for Mac results in a never ending loop of both companies panning the issue off to the other and nobody takes responsibility.

 

Is there anyone out there willing to take the time to assist me and fully exhaust their knowledge to present some sort of solution towards this issue?

 

I am fully committed to this discussion and will provide any and all information needed in order to fix the issue.


Why are there other users with the same software who are NOT experiencing the same issues?


As a last resort, I am aware backing-up the profile/account and restoring the OS is an option. What if this plan of action doesn't solve anything? What if the problem persists?


My technical knowledge of Apple/Mac devices is limited, and I would appreciate any advice/suggestions/support on the matter, as this is a high priority issue and I would like to learn from this so as to avoid any similar issues that I may encounter in the future.


Thank you in advance for your help.

Hotmail screen switches 5 seconds after opening

20. July 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail · Tags: , , , ,
Five seconds after I sign into hotmail, the screen switches from whatever email or folder I am in to the screen where you write a message.  I have to keep reopening an email, read it for 5 seconds or if I'm fast enough print it out before it switches so I can read the email.  This problem just started today.  I have to my knowledge not made any changes on any settings.  I am opening hotmail through Chrome.  Any suggestions how to fix this?  This may be the deciding factor in dumping msn altogether and just using gmail.

Outlook Mac 2011 not correctly reflecting Exchange 2010 mailbox

14. June 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , , , , , ,
Let me start off by saying I'm a PC guy with VERY limited MAC knowledge. I've been put in the role of supporting a MAC user.

Several months ago, we migrated her mailbox from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2010. When we did so, her Entourage broke. Research showed that Entourage would not work with Exchange 2010, so we upgraded her to Office 2011/Outlook.

At first, things looked to be going fine, then she started complaining about calendar.

I started looking, and her outlook 2011 did not reflect all calendar entries (not even 10% of them). I worked on it for a bit and could not figure out what was going on. She also polls an IMAP mailbox that is outside of our organization. 

Finally, I decided to create a new profile (or as the outlook mac community calls them, a new identity).

I found the database tool and created a new identity and configured it to connect to the Exchange server. Once it finished it synchronization and reported all folders are up to date, I did a comparison.

Her mailbox, if I connect with a PC and Outlook 2010 and look in list view, reflects 1169 items dating back to  2007 and ranging forward to 2017.

On her MacBook Pro (OS X v10.6.8) running Outlook 2011 v 14.2.2 reflects that she has 19 items, all dated in 2012

Any idea what gives here and how to resolve the issue?

Best Regards,

David

Unable to unblock my account

25. May 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail · Tags: , , , ,
Hi,

My account has apparently been blocked due to spam email (I have no knowledge of this so assume the account has been hacked), the accoutn in question is "Removed PII"(I have had to create a separate new account in order to post this request for help).

Unfortunately the process that is in place to unblock the account does not work for me as it does not send the code required to a location I can access.

I keep getting taken to a page that says my account has been blocked, and once I continue there is a question asking how I want to receive the code that will unblock my account. The prompter only gives me one email address that the unblock code can be sent to but I do not know what account this is (it looks to be the account that is blocked..).

How can I get  the code sent to me on a different back up email? The new address I have set up could be used (Removed PII) or even my mobile number (as the account does not have a record of my mobile number that option is not currently open to me).

Any help that is available quickly to unblock this would be appreciated, form the forum it looks as though a lot of people have the same issue so am surprised a better solution has not been put in place.

Thanks
Laurence
