User prompted for password , but never accepts it- 2011 mac office

22. April 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , , ,

I have a user who is having an outlook mailbox password issue.

He has two machines at work ,he is running windows 7 with office 2010 and a mac-book with Mountain lion and office 2011.

His password expired so i when into AD and reset his password . Neither machine would accept his new credentials for Outlook, for his windows machine I followed this guide :

http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/fix-for-outlook-2007-constantly-asking-for-password-on-vista/

i renamed his %userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Protect and his windows machine is no longer asking him for his password .

I'm not familiar with mac enough to pinpoint how to trouble shoot this same issue .

Does mac-have a similar workaround as in this guide? If not does anyone know where i can start ?

autocomplete list from 2011 to 2010

Hello everyone,

I recently moved a user from using outlook for mac to using outlook 2010 on a windows machine.

I would like to know if there's a way to export/import the email addresses in her autocomplete list from outlook 2011 to 2010.

I already know of the way to import the .nk2 file from 2010 to 2011, but now I need vice-versa.

Let me know if you have ideas.

Thank you

Outlook for mac the same functions as Outlook for windows?

Hi there!

Just bought a new macbook pro, but sending emails with mac mail doesn't make me very happy.

I want to send a minimum of 1.000 emails a day, just like I used to do with outlook on my windows machine. Without any problem I might add.

I'm considering to buy outlook for mac, but:

- is it the same program as it is in windows?

- can I use my contacts from outlook and NOT from contacts on my mac? (contacts on macbook can't contain that many email addresses).

Maybe, if outlook for mac is not the same as it is for windows, what kind of email program can you recommend?

Regards,

Ronald 

Searching contacts in Lync

14. November 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , ,
Hi,

I have Office 365 Home Edition, when i downloaded the latest edition of lync i started facing a problem of not being able to search the Global Outlook Directory.
This was working normally on my Windows machine. To add people i have to login to lync on my windows machine search for the new contacts in order to see them on Lync Mac.
Note that am using a temp license until i get the purchased license.

Thanks,
I. 

Having one common inbox in outlook for MAC

27. August 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , ,

I just purchased an imac and imported my outlook PST file from my prior windows machine. The imported file now appears in outlook for MAC as a separate folder and not part of the inbox. I wanted to keep my old inbox (from my pst file) and not create a separate one. Is there any way to solve this ?

 

Grateful for any advice

 

thanks

Hello, my boss has a mac and is using office 2011 for it. I am using outlook 2007 on a windows machine. Is there any way for me to create a distribution group from my machine and send it to his? He has shared his contacts with me and i am able to search the people i need and create a group but when i send the distribution group to him via email it is unrecognizable and he cant drag it to his contacts. Do you have any suggestions on how I can create this group so he can see it in his contacts? Thank you.
