Hi there microsoft users! 

I was just doing some stuff on my Macbook when Outlook suddenly stopped working. I had to 'rebuild database', but this didn't work. There stood some kind of code: 20997. I tried it several times and it never worked. I think I've got Office for Mac 2011, but it could also be Office for Mac 2008. Is there someone who could help me? 

Thank you & kind regards!
 have a Macbook Air with Office for Mac 2011 installed.  Recently I started getting messages about needing to rebuild my "database utility", which I did---repeatedly. When that didn't work, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Office. Now when I try and open Outlook, I get a message saying "This identity can not be opened with this version of Outlook".

Can anyone give me advice on this question?

Thanks in advance
We are having a persistent issue, as this only affects one of our users on MacBook.
He has Office for Mac 2011 installed and cannot seem to save recieved attachments. 
Though it is weird, it only applies to .pdf files and .xlsx

This issue is really urgent and needs to be resolved without affecting user files. (as this is the director of the company)
We are using Exchange server and the account is connected via Exchange.

Has anyone else had these problems, and is there a solution for this? 
We have tried almost every solution found in this community page.

Control+Click opens the context menu every option to Save the attachment is grayed out and impossible to click.

Saving attachments from OWA works and they are available for download.

I started seeing some off behavior.  If I accept a meeting invite on Office for Mac 2011, my Office 365/Exchange calendar gets properly updated.  I sync my iphone or ipad and I get requested to accept or decline the meeting invite on the device as well.  However, if I accept the invite on my device, Office for Mac 2011 gets updated properly and I do not have to accept the invite a 2nd time. 

Any ideas on how to solve this? 

Thanks
Mark

hi, we have two macs, one in each office that one user has access to depending which office they are in

 

Office 1 mac you can see anyone's shared calendar, on mac 2 when I open a shared calendar (file, open shared folder) enter the persons calendar name, it finds it in the directory, I click ok

 

then nothing happens after that, there is no entry under shared calendars, nothing, no errors, nothing at all

it is the same office 365 account on each mac, same users, same machine, sames permissions etc

 

what could be wrong with Mac 2 causing this? 

Hello, I installed Office for Mac 2011 and when it synced the contacts (through Exchange), most of the contact photos now no longer show in OWA or in Outlook 2013 from my Windows PC's. They are not lost: In Outlook 2013 (for windows) they appear instead under "Notes", in the form of a thumbnail jpeg. On my Mac, however, the photos show up correctly. None of my windows accounts (e.g., windows phone) now show any photos any longer. I tried some troubleshooting: I deleted all my contacts from everything, and imported them back to Outlook for Mac and synced them, but the photos still show only under "notes" in the Windows accounts. On my Mac, however, the photos show up correctly.


How can I solve the issue? I see the same problem reported by other people, but I am not aware of a resolution. I have posted this questions in Windows forums, etc., but I did not get any helpful advice yet.
I have the latest updated version of Outlook for Mac v14.3.6 and I keep getting the error:

Could not synchronize record: <my_calendar_event>
EndDate is earlier than StartDate
Error code -19982

It is associated with a calendar event that I have since deleted to try and resolve the error but it stills keep popping up. I am getting several of these errors every hour and it is very annoying!

I believe that my office is using a Exchange 2007 server if that helps..

I have about dozen email accounts in Outlook for Mac (Office for Mac 2011). All them use POP, but I'm planning to switch three of my most widely used accounts to IMAP. To better understand how IMAP works in Outlook, I created a 'testIMAP' account at my ISP and configured it in Outlook. I noticed a change in the hierarchy of folders.

It went from:
On My Computer
 -> Inbox
 -> other folders (that received filter POP email)

To this:
Inbox
 -> On My Computer
    -> other folders (that received filter POP email)
 -> testIMAP
    -> Drafts, Junk, Sent, and Junk (subfolders of testIMAP)

I also discovered that empty copies On My Computer and testIMAP folders were in the Deleted Items folder. I'm not sure what's going on.

What's really unusual to me, is that incoming testIMAP email goes into two folders: Inbox and testIMAP.
And POP email that doesn't have a specific filter, now goes into two folders: Inbox and On My Computer.
Cluttering the Inbox with so much duplicated email seems problematic. Is there anyway to prevent this?

Thanks,
Chuck
I reloaded Office for Mac 2011 and my BCC line has disappeared.  Any suggestions?
