"changes to the public group membership cannot be saved" error from Outlook 2010 users, but no problem with Outlook 2003.

We have the exact same issue as this but our groups are already universal security group and we still have problem:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-NZ/exchangesvrmigration/thread/2c953cb4-5411-4f72-beb9-6b4c16fd6685
The distribution-groups were upgraded to Exchange 2010.  User A can update the group from Outlook 2003 or OWA 2010 but not from Outlook 2010.  Anyone know the solution?
thanks

Hi lilyl,
For this issue, please refer to this document:
How to Manage Groups that I already own in Exchange 2010?
http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2009/11/18/3408844.aspx
So what does the "Changes to the distribution list membership cannot be saved. You do not have sufficient permission to perform
this operation on this object." error mean, when you are connecting to an Exchange 2010 server?
It means Exchange 2010 is doing its job - as designed...
Thanks,
Evan

  • Changes to the public group membership cannot be saved. You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object.

    We have an existing Hybrid Setup
    On-Premise Exchange Version: Exchange 2010 SP3 RU1
    Users are being migrated to Exchange Online every day.
    We've read online that Distribution Group and Public Folder permissions and memberships cannot be modified by Exchange Online users, until and unless all DG and PFs are moved to Exchange online.
    I'd like to confirm the above part.

    Hello,
    These migrated users who are owners of the distribution group can't manage it in Microsoft Exchange Online, if you want to manage the distribution group, the distribution group owners need to use on-premises tools for Exchange Server such as the following:
    EMC and EMS, and then we need directory synchronization or other tools to sync the changes to Office 365.
    Even though all DG and PFs are moved to Exchange online, I'm afraid that we still need on-premises tools for Exchange Server :EMC and EMS.

  • "changes to the distribution list membership cannot be saved. you do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object"

    Running Exchange 2010/latest updates on Windows 2008 R2 servers.
    When I create a new DL that I want someone to manage, they received the following message when trying to add/remove from the DL:
    "changes to the distribution list membership cannot be saved.  you do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object"
    I have followed everything in "http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2009/11/18/453251.aspx" with no luck
    Any suggestions?

    Piggybacking off of the discussion above, with our deployment of Exchange 2007, we created a set of web-based tools that allowed people to create Exchange Resources including distribution lists.  To allow multiple people to manage the lists for a given
    department, we programmatically created a group, which is populated with one or more users from the "resource department".  We then set the following AD permissions to allow members of the group to manage membership of departmental distribution lists:
    Add-ADPermission -User DepartmentalGroup -AccessRights ReadProperty, WriteProperty -Properties 'Member' -DomainController dc.contoso.com
    Fast forward to Exchange 2010 and the landscape has changed with Exchange 2010's implementation of Role Based Access Control and I'm struggling to come up with a way to programmatically allow a group of users to manage distribution list membership for a
    subset of distribution lists - note that we have approximately 75 departments, with each having its own set of coordinators who should be able to manage distribution lists for their department but not lists created by other departments.  The specific
    error we receive in Outlook when attempting to modify group membership is the same as the title of this thread - "Changes to the distribution list membership cannot be saved.  You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object". 
    I implemented the settings referred to at
    http://sysadmin-talk.org/2010/06/omg-allowing-end-users-to-manage-distribution-group-membership-in-exchange-2010-2/ which details the process of creating a new management role and revoking the role's ability to create new distribution lists and remove distribution
    lists (which we want because we want those actions to be performed using our web tools). 
    All that to say that the ultimate problem we have is that the above relies on the "ManagedBy" field of a distribution list (viewable by Get-DistributionList Listname | fl *ManagedBy*) to determine group ownership.  When "ManagedBy" is set to a user,
    the user CAN edit a distribution list's membership from Outlook and OWA.  When "ManagedBy" is set to a group, members of the group are UNABLE to edit the membership of the distribution list via Outlook or Outlook Web Access/ECP.   Furthermore,
    Set-DistributionGroup does not allow you to specify a list of users to assign to the ManagedBy field.  However, if "ManagedBy" was set to a specific user and that user logs in to the Exchange Control Panel and adds additional "owners" of the distribution
    list, which I can then see from EMS - both the original owner and any additional owners added can in turn modify group membership for the list using Outlook or Outlook Web Access/ECP.
    My questions:
    1) Is it "expected" behavior that while I can assign a group to the "ManagedBy" property of distribution list, members of that group are still unable to edit the group membership?  ...or is there a fix for the behavior I'm seeing?
    2) Can multiple values be assigned to the "ManagedBy" property when using Set-DistributionList - ex: Set-DistributionList DLName -ManagedBy:user1,user2
    3) Any other suggestions?
    Thanks,
    -Lance

  • My IPad cannot download live Tv from skygo. I have no problem with my lap top so I assume the broad band is okay. Can anybody suggest why the live streaming will not work on my iPad one.

    My IPad cannot download live Tv from skygo. I have no problem with my lap top so I assume the broad band is okay. Can anybody suggest why the live streaming will not work on my iPad .

    Are you using the Sky Go app to try and watch it ? If so are you logged in with your Sky account ?
    If you are using the app then you could try closing the app completely and see if it works when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Sky Go 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Sky Go app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    Please help.... cannot get into the ITUNES account. It says unknown error has occured. Is there a problem with ITunes?

    Same thing happened with my iPhone 4S - no one is any help.  Thanks Apple for such a crappy update!  I've called Apple, they say the SIM card needs replacing, I go to my service provider they tell me nothing wrong with the SIM card - provider tells me I now need a new phone.  Sheesh!  If someone has a solution to this it would be greatly appreciated.

  • "The Itunes library file cannot be saved" Error Message (-54) please help!

    Hello, I was loading a music cd onto my itunes library today when I started getting this recurring Error message stating: "The Itunes library file cannot be saved. An unknown error has occurred (-54)"
    It just keeps popping up, and now it let me play anything without getting it. So in a panic I realized that nothing is backed up, so I started backing up my itunes using a blank dvd and even that failed in the middle of burning. I guess it has something to do with the error message?
    This scares me since I'm very careful of the types of discs I put into my Mac, and I know that disc in particular didn't have any kind of virus (its been playing in my car for the last two years actually) and it was burned on my PC using itunes a while back when the system was clean.
    My music is like my life and this message is freaking me out, how do I get rid of the message without damaging my library? or what happened to make it appear?
    I'm afraid of how to proceed next.....Someone please help!

    I suspect some anti-virus software is incorrectly interpreting the rewriting of the file and is causing a problem.
    Either way, you should definitely update your anti-virus software and definitions to the latest, and run a full scan of your system. Then tell the security software not to scan the iTunes itl file/folder.
    If that does not help, you may want to recreate your iTunes library:

  • The iTunes Library file cannot be saved error message

    Most of the time, whenever I open iTunes I get this error message:
    "The iTunes Library file cannot be saved. An unknown error occured (-48)."
    However, nothing is ever missing from my library despite this message. Can someone tell me why this message keeps coming up and how to fix it? I am using the latest version of iTunes (7.6.1.9).

  • Error with iTunes "The iPod Group Storage cannot be used with iTunes...."

    I bought a usb hub to accomodate my multiple usb devices. I plugged my iPod into this and got the following error:
    "The iPod Group Storage cannot be used with iTunes because it is not formatted properly."
    I plugged the iPod into the computer rather than the hub. Same thing
    Tried to restore, per the error message's direction. It says it has restored it to factory settings, then it brings up that message again.
    I uninstalled and re-installed iTunes. Same thing. It was playing fine but it needs re-charging now and it won't because of the error.
    Does anyone have any ideas? I don't know what to do now.
    Thanks.

    Try to reset your iPod using the recovery mode as described in this support article
    However, this will erase the iPod completely. If you have an iTunes-backup on your computer you can restore your iPod settings later from the backup.
    I have never tried this in WIndows, however. The procedure might be slightly differeent.

    You just changed Contacts in GMAIL and I cannot restore my contacts from the previous version. I followed your instructions but it did not restore close to 500 contacts that i have which are in the Other Contacts area.

    Hi robertsjohn125,
    Contacts are not managed in Firefox, unless you are taking about Firefox Desktop and Firefox Hello?
    Where do you manage your contacts, this might help direct you to the correct support.

  • I keep getting dialog box saying " The itunes Library file cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation"  I am the only user on this computer and only one library! how do i change access privileges please?

    hi I keep getting the dialog box " The iTunes Library file cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation"
    How do i  amend this  as i only have one account and one library. I cannot save new work or delete duplicate files

    A belated reply, as the problems itunes has have discouraged me from using it much. If you uncheck the "read only" box, it doesn't stay that way! Next time you use it, the box comes up checked.
    I'm still having that problem, even when I open iTunes as administrator.
    I've yet to see the answer to this problem. I use itunes mostly to download audiobooks, and I'm ready to download more, and want to save them!

  • I cannot send an email from my iPad 2? No problem receiving, why does this happen? Have tried the suggestions for setting up email and after doing the sync mail through iTunes receiving worked great but still cannot send? Any help would be great

    I cannot send an email from my iPad 2? No problem receiving, why does this happen? Have tried the suggestions for setting up email and after doing the sync mail through iTunes receiving worked great but still cannot send? Any help would be great!

    The fact that you can receive means you have a valid e mail address, and have established the connection to the incoming server, so all of that works.  Since the send does not work, that means your outgoing server is rejecting whatever settings you used formthe outgoing set up.  Try them again. 
    Google your particular isp, and ipad and many times you will find the exact settings needed for your isp.  Or tell us here, and soneone else may be on the same isp.  Some mail services need you to change a port, or have a unique name for the outgoing server.  
    Kep trying.

    The error message I get on my PC is "The ITunes library file cannot be saved" An unknown error occurred (-50)and my music library has disappeared.  I recently tried to copy a CD to my library - it appeared to copy ok but then did not appear in my music library.  The library does not show up even when my iPad is connected to my PC.  My entire library is now held on my iPad and I wish to have it in iTunes so I can sync my iPhone to it as well.  Help?

    Don't know what changed today but it downloaded and installed on the shuffle. So far so good.

  • "The iTunes library file cannot be saved.You do not have enough access privileges for this operation."

    keep getting       '' the itunes library file cannot be saved. you do not have enough access privledges''  when ever i try to add or change my library, why? have tried  several suggestions on the internet to stop this from happening but with no success. i am running windows 7. has started happening since installing new security software. would this have anything to do with this problem? any suggestions

    The location of the iTunes Library file may be read-only or owned by a different user.
    Default locations:
    XP: C:\Documents and Settings\<login>\My Documents\My Music\iTunes
    Vista: C:\Users\<login>\Music\iTunes
    Windows 7: C:\Users\My Music\itunes
    Right click the iTunes folder and choose Properties
    Look at the Attributes and see if Read-Only is checked.
    Uncheck it and click OK, at the apply to all subfolders and files prompt, make sure all subfolders and files is selected and click OK.
    If your iTunes library saves now you are done.
    If it does not you will need to try on each directory above the iTunes directory.
    Of course if you are not using the default locations you'll have to alter the path to the one you find in iTunes Edit->Preferences, Advanced tab.

  • The itunes library file cannot be saved (-48)

    After migrating my library from an xp machine to a new vista machine, I get this error whenever I open iTunes.
    The itunes library file cannot be saved (-48)
    The most annoying result appears to be that my video iPod does a full sync every time now (as it can't save the library file, this isn't surprising).
    Anybody know how to fix this?

    I am getting this error on my Vista computer. I've tried rebuilding the library and that didn't help. Interestingly I had the same error on my old XP computer. When I migrated my music from the old to the new I copied the music files but I created a new libary files; so that indicates to me that the problem is not Vista specific.
    I am starting to wonder if it's a software confict, ie some software that I had installed on both computers or a corrupt file among my music.
    There is another discussion about this error here, but there's nothing conclusive http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1202649
    BTW I have found that the error always occurs when I connect my 2nd generation Shuffle, but it also occurs randomly, particularly shortly after I have opened iTunes (even if I have not made changes that would require writing to the library file).
