Outlook 2011: Error: Message size exceeds my databytes limit (#5.3.4)

12. August 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: answer, AppleScript, editor, message, Message size, Microsoft Outlook, OPEN, outbox

HI,

This started happening with the last upgrade to Outlook. I don't have any size limits set on attachments in my e-mail for the account. Can you help me with a couple questions please:

1) The Outbox isn't showing any messages that are stuck, but obviously something isn't sending. Where do I find this message? and how do I "remove/delete" it?

2) Where can you change the settings? so this doesn't happen again please.

I did partially solve this by using the following answer, but how do I prevent it from happening again? and I also don't know what message I just deleted....

Try this:

Open the AppleScript Editor found in /Applications/Utilities. Paste in the following three lines:

tell application "Microsoft Outlook"

delete every message of outbox

end tell

Click the Run button at the top and this should delete every message in your Outbox.

Hope this helps!

Thanks.

Applescript issue with Outlook 2011 not seeing text in user name field if followed by the backslash

08. August 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: AppleScript, application, backslash, exchange account, microsoft, Microsoft Outlook, Outlook account, text

Using Applescript I can get the user name in Outlook 2011, but it will only display the text that comes after a backslash if present in the user name field.
With this Applescript I can get the user name from Outlook:

tell application "Microsoft Outlook"
get the user name of exchange account 1
end tell

result--> username

But in the Outlook Account it reads:

ADDOMAIN\username

If I use Applescript to enter a user name it just appends the user name to the ADDOMAIN\ text

tell application "Microsoft Outlook"
set the user name of exchange account 1 to "username2"
end tell

In Outlook account settings will result in:

ADDOMAIN\username2

Is there any way to clear this invisible text using Applescript? I need to deploy this to 1000+ users so using Applescript is the preferred method vs. going to each user's computer individually.

I cannot link my new outlook.com account with Microsoft Outlook for MAC 2011. I have never experienced these problems with my hotmail account, I simply added the hotmail account and it functioned correctly.

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.

AppleScript to extract the first name, last name, nickname, and sender address from every message in a folder in Outlook for mac:2011

31. July 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: Apple, AppleScript, Excel spreadsheet, folder, mac, Microsoft Outlook, nickname, run

Hello,

I'd need assistance writing an AppleScript to extract the first name, last name, nickname, and sender address from every message in a folder in Outlook for mac:2011 then populate a new Excel spreadsheet. Once in Excel, I'll manually remove duplicates.

I want to rebuild my autocomplete history in Outlook for mac:2011 after migrating from Apple Mail.

Outlook only allows you to Add Sender to Address Book one message at a time.

Here's what I have:

on run {}

tell application "Microsoft Outlook"

set theAccount to imap account "Me"

-- Get the messages selected in Outlook

set currentMessages to current messages

set mailFolders to name of folders of theAccount as list

-- Check to make sure items are selected, if not then quit

if ((count of currentMessages) < 1) then return

-- Iterate through selected messages

repeat with aMessage in currentMessages

-- Get the account for the message

set messageAccount to account of aMessage

set messageSender to sender of aMessage

sender of every message of folder "INBOX" of the theAccount as list

end repeat

end tell

end run

Thank you.

olk14MsgAttach files

30. July 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: disk, Identities, microsoft, Microsoft Outlook, Office 2008, olk, Outlook, user

I understand, that the files with extension olk14MsgAttach are files used by Microsoft outlook to handle attachments. I found them in Documents/Microsoft User Data/ Office 2011 Identities/Main Identity/...

Could something be wrong with those, since I have about 12Gb of those?
I would like to get rid of them to save space on a crowded disk.

I also have a series of Office 2008 files hanging in a similar place, although I have upgraded to Office 2011 long time ago - can all these files (the directory calle Office 2008 Identities) just be discarded?

thanks

Outlook for Mac 2011 Client Crashing While trying to access Calendar Permissions

27. July 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: account permissions, Application Bundle, Blame, error, issue, microsoft, Microsoft Outlook, Module Name, OutlookCore

Hello All,

This is an issue I have been dealing with for the past week and I still have not been able to find a solution for it.

What is happening is one of our executives is trying to share his calendar with another employee. Whenever he tries to access the permissions for the calendar the Folder Properties: Calendar dialog box opens then after a few moments Outlook crashes and displays this error:

Microsoft Error Reporting log version: 2.0

Error Signature:

Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS

Date/Time: 2012-07-20 00:27:37 +0000

Application Name: Microsoft Outlook

Application Bundle ID: com.microsoft.Outlook

Application Signature: OPIM

Application Version: 14.2.3.120616

Crashed Module Name: OutlookCore

Crashed Module Version: 14.2.3.120616

Crashed Module Offset: 0x00050058

Blame Module Name: OutlookCore

Blame Module Version: 14.2.3.120616

Blame Module Offset: 0x00050058

Application LCID: 1033

Extra app info: Reg=en Loc=0x0409

Crashed thread: 24

When I first saw this happen I believed that it was a client issue, but after further investigation we noticed that while trying to share his calendar within the OWA he also received an error. This leads me to believe that this issue has something to do with his account permissions on the Exchange server, or his account on the exchange server has been corrupted somehow.The Calendar is the only issue. Everything else (Mail, Mail Sharing, Calendar actions besides sharing) all function properly. Also, All other Mailboxes and Outlook Clients have no issues.

We Are running Exchange 2010.

If anyone has any ideas on what may be causing this any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
