How to Get Outlook 2010 RDA or OWA as the Default Mail handler for Windows 7

I use remote desktop apps which is my primary method of using Outlook 2010. however I use many applications in Windows 7 that I need to be able to send email from. Logic tells me the Default Mail application MIME needs to be mapped. However I do not show
RemoteApps listed in the list of Programs available to connect to as MIME.
Is there a way to fix this?

Hi,
To set Outlook 2010 as the default program, please do the following settings:
1. Open Outlook, click File > Options.
2. In General pane, make sure the “Make Outlook the default program for E-mail, Contacts, and Calendar” option is checked.
3. Click “Default Program”, select the extensions you want Outlook 2010 to open by default, and then click Save.
4. Click Ok to save the settings in Outlook.
5. Open Control Pane and search for Default Programs.
6. Select Set your Default Programs link.
7. Choose Microsoft Outlook from the list of programs.
8. Click "Set this program as default".
9. Click OK to save the setting.

HT2506 How to set outlook as the default mail client for Preview

When I try to us Preview to email PDFs the Apple Mail client is the default mail client that opens. I use Lion and would like to set Outlook as my default. Does anyone know how to do this? It has been suggested that you click command-P, select PDF and add Outlook there but there are no options to do this. I am stuck and would like some help. I am using outlook:mac2011 version 14.1.4 and Preview 5.5.1
Cheers

I did not find a way to change the target application for the "New Email with Attchment" service for files and folders. However, you can follow this instruction here to create ANOTHER service, that will use Outlook: http://www.officeformachelp.com/2010/11/create-a-service-to-attach-files-to-a-ne w-outlook-for-mac-mail-message/
Hope this helps. Sebastian.

How to get Outlook 2010+ to connect up externally using Outlook Anywhere (EXCH2013)?

I have a on-premise EXCH2010 / EXCH2013 deployment and I would like to allow our users to be able to access their email using their domain joined and non-domain joined (workgroup) laptop/outlook.
The clients are running Outlook 2010 and/or Outlook 2013.
The current issue is that I cannot connect, my test case is using Outlook 2013 trying to connect externally (using autodiscover). When I go and add a new profile and I select Exchange and enter my server URL (the autodiscover urL) and my user-id and click
"check name" I get nothing, just an error saying lookup failed.
I would expect for a WORKGROUP computer to get prompted for user/pass so they can get authenticated and the profile added.
Here is my OutlookAnywhere settings in my AD.

Any idea how to make it work? We use Split DNS and one DNS entry for both internal/external clients (webmail.mydomain.com).

Hi,
Please verify whether you can logon OWA successfully.
If OWA works well, it seems there is no problem when access mailbox directly.
Then I suggest configure Outlook as following blog:

How do you set a usb sound card as the default sound device for all programs?

I'm running cmus for a music player and it works fine with the internal speakers on my macbook pro. I'm using a usb sound card for a set of 5.1 surround speakers and cmus won't send it's audio to the usb sound card. I've also tried several other programs for audio and it seems to be hit or miss with being able to use the usb sound card. I'm not sure if I'm overlooking the a setting or if there is a different audio output plugin for cmus that has the functionality I need. Cmus also won't play over any bluetooth audio device while some other sounds will.

Yes I did and it does not appear there. Only the ringtones I have created myself and the default ones appear in the list.
In settings>sounds>ringtone however they all appear

How to sync Outlook 2010 calendar (on my local windows 7 computer) with my iPhone 5c without iCloud?

How to sync Outlook 2010 calendar (on my local windows 7 64 bit computer) with my iPhone 5c without iCloud?

You would sync Outlook via iTunes on the computer. Connect the iPhone to the computer, make sure you have the latest version of iTunes running, select the iPhone in iTunes and it will display the Summary page. Select the Info tab, and there you would select what you want to sync calendar and contacts to. Make sure since this is the first time you have done a sync that whichever of the devices is new to the sync process has at least one unique contact/calendar event to get iTunes to prompt you for a merge or replacement. You can see this support document for help in setting up initial syncing. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1296

How to synchronize Outlook 2010 with SAP Calendar

Hello colleagues,
How to synchronize Outlook 2010 with SAP Calendar??
Thanks

Install MfE (Mail for Exchange), then follow this: http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=147951
You can sync your mail, contacts and calendar with Google Sync. Tasks and notes are not supported. (Notes syncing is not possible with MfE anyway.)

Is it possible to configure Outlook 2010 as the Default Mail client if it is presented to the Desktop via RemoteApp?

I am a user of RemoteApps. I connect to a Website that presents me with various applications, include Outlook 2010. however, I use other programs that I need to send mail from that are in within the RemoteApp workspace. Is it possible to configure windows
7 to map a call to RemoteApp/Outlook2010 to send mail as a default mail client? or Perhaps a way to get OWA to map as a default mail client handler?
I am using Windows 7 SP1 - Updated to latest service releases, Outlook 2010 from RemoteApps, and IE 11.
Thank you in advance!

Hi Raymond,
Based on my research, we can use Group Policy and Internet Options to configure default mail client.

Outlook 2010 Out of Office Assistant only works when prompted for credentials

Hello,
I've come across what seems to be an odd issue with Outlook 2010 and Exchange 2010 in an SBS 2011 environment and am hoping someone has seen this issue before.
Basically, we have a few users who can only get their OOF Assistant in Outlook to work if they supply their credentials at Outlook startup. If credentials are saved, on subsequent startups, the OOF assistant
will not work, and receive the "Server is currently unavailable" commonly encountered.
OOF does work within OWA.
Everything tests out fine as far as I can tell, but am open to providing more information as required.
Mahalo!

Hi,
Generally, this issue occurs because the CAS server uses the credentials that you used to log on to Windows instead of the credentials that you used to log on to the mailbox in Outlook 2010. Please check whether the Windows credentials do not match the mailbox
credentials in your environment.
To resolve this issue, please refer to the following KB:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2596516
If the issue continues, please check whether there are any event logs in local machine and CAS server. You can post it here for further analysis.

Win 8.1 2010 Outlook Error message: "Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill..."

When trying to open Outlook in Win 8.1 I get the error message:
"Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Office Outlook and set it as the default mail client."
It eventually opens but none of my Mail accounts load. When I click on one of the accounts I get
"Cannot expand the folder. Internet mail is not registered properly. Re-install and try again."
Outlook is set with all its defaults. I've tried going through the Repair routine for Microsoft Office but it doesn't help.

Hi,
To delete a profile, you may try the steps below:
Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps
carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.
1. Press Windows key + R to open the Run command.
2. Type regedit in the Open field and click OK.
3. Locate the key then right click on it and choose Rename:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem
4. Type OLD at the end of the name.
5. Try opening Outlook and it may prompt that you need to create a new profile.
I hope this can help.

Using new computer, existing mailbox user Outlook 2010 Auto-configuration points to the Mailbox Server rather than CAS Array ?

People,
I'm having a problem with the current AD user account & mailbox user where they cannot get the Outlook 2010 automatically configured to point into the CAS array ?
This is happening when the existing user get new computer replaced or login to the Terminal Server where their account never set before, it always points to the Mailbox Server instead of the Client Access Server array virtual name.
The work around that I provided is typing the Client Access Array address and then specify Outlook.domain.com to match the Windows NLB name (and Get-ClientAccessArray result).
Single AD Domain forest
AD Site DataCenter contains:
Domain Controllers: PRODDC01-VM, PRODDC02-VM, PRODDC03-VM
Exchange Server 2010 SP3 - CAS&HT: PRODMAIL01-VM and PRODMAIL01-VM (Configured with WNLB as outlook.domain.com)
Exchange Server 2010 SP3 - Mailbox: PRODMAILBOX01-VM and PRODMAILBOX01-VM (no DAG is set)
Terminal Server (RDSH 2008 R2): PRODTS01-VM ... PRODTS60-VM (when user logged in to new TS, it got the same error).
AD Site HQ contains - This site has no issue:
Domain Controllers: HQDC01 and HQDC02
Workstations using Outlook 2010 and 2013
AD Site SiteOffice1 contains - This site has problem:
Domain Controllers: none but the majority of the workstations LOGONSERVER is pointing to PRODDC03-VM
Workstations using Outlook 2010 and 2013
All of the Exchange environment here is using Exchange Server 2010 SP3 for all server roles.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
Yes, the RPCClientAccessServer should point to the CAS array. What's more, I would like to clarify the following things:
1. Run the Get-ClientAccessServer | fl AutoDiscoverServiceInternalUri cmdlet to make sure that it displays the correct Uri.
2. Run the Get-WebServicesVirtualDirectory | fl Identity,*auth*,*URL to ensure that URL for EWS points to the CAS array.
Hope this can be helpful to you.

How to get physical number of selected row on the screen.

Hi,
We have block defined with Numbers of Records Displayed = 3. In the same time the data set contains 10 records. We would like to know how to get a number of row selected on the screen. i.e. in our case that the number will be always between 1 and 3 independent of the current row position in the data set.
Best regards,
Constantin.

You can calculate that number by subtracting :SYSTEM.CURSOR_RECORD and GET_BLOCK_PROPERTY('BLOCK', TOPMOST_RECORD)

I have a similar problem: I switched from mac mail to Outlook 2011 as the default client, and want to switch back. Mailto links (eg from browser etc) default to Mail. However, when I try to email a Word document as an attachment, it continues to open Outlook. Outlook has a button in its prefs for making it the default client, but I don't see a way to turn this pref off in either Outlook or in Word.

Respond please!

Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then see if you can redownload your past music purchases (those that are still in the store) via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
If you are not in a country where music can currently be re-downloaded, then have you not got it on your computer and/or on a backup ? If not then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
