Outlook 2010 - cannot setup SMS service

I've tried to set up a sms service in Outlook 2010 (Win8), as specified here:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/send-and-receive-text-messages-sms-HA101823438.aspx
on a laptop connected to broadband network (SIM card etc) - so using "Third-party text messaging (SMS) service" option.
However, there is no "Text Message (SMS)" item in the "New Items" tab. I can see nothing in the Options that would help to enable this.
I've tried to add to the ribbon the ""New SMS" item, but it is not active (grayed).
Best regards,
Mariusz

You need to configure a Text Messaging (SMS) account firstly

  • Outlook 2010 cannot use Secure Password Authentication

    I am the administrator of the server running Microsoft Windows 2003 Server POP3 service since 2008. It hosts my email account. Nobody but me manages the settings of the server and the client side. Until the moment I decided to install Microsoft Outlook
    2010 as a client there was Secure Password Authentication working between Outlook 2003 and Windows 2003 Server. After installing of Outlook 2010, when I try to sync, the SPA authentication doesn't work. Nothing is changed on the server side.
    Enabling the SPA authentication on the both sides results a communicaton problem between Microsoft Windows 2003 Server POP3 service and Microsoft Outlook 2010 client. When I disable SPA on both sides the connection works but password is sent
    as plain text. Actually I started a discussion on
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-outlook/outlook-2010-cannot-use-secure-password/66dafd66-1b00-43b5-96fb-b8a26254fc77 but I didn't receive an answer with a solution.

    Snefels,
    This is actually a known issue that Outlook 2010 doesn't work well with Windows Server 2003 POP services.
    Here is the blog post for the issue:
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/jjameson/archive/2010/04/26/outlook-2010-does-not-work-with-windows-server-2003-pop3-service.aspx
    If you read the comments below, you'll found that some readers' shared some workaround/solutions, which reportedly works for others. So you might want to have a look.
    Disable SPA on the Windows 2003 POP3 server and do the same in Outlook 2010 POP setup.. using the full email address, "[email protected]" instead of just doug (if using the Secure Password Authentication).

    Outlook 2010 cannot save to archive folders listed. Message says that message was already moved or that user doesn't have permission.

    Hi,
    Does this issue occur when you manually archive items in Outlook, do you drag them into the archive folder?
    The first thing I wonder is if the .pst file has been corrupted, please run Scanpst.exe to repair the archive .pst file:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/272227/en-us
    Please logon your Webmail(owa), check if the emails are available. If the emails have been moved and Outlook Client hasn't synced yet, this issue may occur as well.
    We can also create a new .pst file to archive the file, check if the issue persists.
    For more information, we can refer to Archive items manually:
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/outlook-help/archive-items-manually-HA010355564.aspx
    When you browse to the archive file in step 5, type in a new .pst file name.
    If my understanding is not accurate, please detail your scenario and provide the exact error message.

  • Outlook 2010 cannot provide form scripting support

    I have followed two workarounds and fixes for Office 2010 in  a terminal services environment.  One was to copy a .dll file to the terminal server and the other was to remove a registry entry.  Both workarounds fixed the problem temporarily,
    but it continues to show up.  When a user opens some email messages they receive a warning that "Microsoft Outlook cannot provide form scripting support. This feature is not available.  For more information, contact your system administrator."A+, MCP, MCSA, MCSE, Security+

    Here is what I did to enable VB scripting for Outlook 2010.
    1.     
    Determine the GUID for Office 2010.
    In the Registry, go to
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Features. Search for
    “OutlookVBScript”. I found it at:
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Features\00004109110000000000000000F01FEC.
    In the Registry, for an x86 server go to
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Products,
    or for an x64 server, go to
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Common\InstalledPackages (the first one)
    and select the key where you located “OutlookVBScript”.
    On my server, it is:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Products\00004109110000000000000000F01FEC
    When I select it, this is what I see:
    DisplayName “Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010”
    InstallSource, ModifyPath and UninstallSring all show the Office 2010 GUID as
    {90140000-0011-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE}
    2.     
    Install VBScripting for Outlook.
    My commands to install VBscripting for Outlook are therefore:
    change user /install
    msiexec /i {90140000-0011-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE} ADDLOCAL=OutlookVBScript /qb
    change user /execute
    Note: After installing VBscripting for Outlook, “OutlookVBScript”at
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Features\00004109110000000000000000F01FEC changed its value from “OUTLOOKFiles”
    (where the box glyph at the beginning appears to be a minus or dash in the Registry editor) to “OUTLOOKFiles”.

  • Outlook 2010: "Cannot open your default e-mail folders..."

    When I open Outlook 2010 I receive the message: "Cannot open your default email folders.  There is not enough memory to perform the operation.", after which the program closes.  This is on a network running SBS 2003, with about 25 users, and I
    am the only with this problem.  System resources on the exchange server are fine, so I can only imagine a disk usage quota has been exceeded somewhere.  Storage limits for my account looked fine.  I've tried restarting exchange services, restarting
    the server itself, restarting my desktop, etc etc, to no avail.
    This specific problem just started yesterday, but I've been having memory issues for months now.  Usually, the Send and Receive dialogue will tell me that there are not enough resources on the server, but mail comes and goes just fine.  It's never
    simply refused to let me open outlook before, like it is now. 
    I also tried logging in through another computer and using Outlook 2003, which actually let me open the program, but did not sync mail properly.
    Also, we use cached exchange mode, so I tried creating a new ost file, but no dice. 
    Anyone know what the deal might be? 

    Hi,
    I agree with Don’s guess of damaged PST file or MAPI profile. Analyzed your description(sync mail improperly on another computer and using cache mode), this problem might occur when your Outlook messaging profile includes a Microsoft Exchange account
    that is configured to Use Cached Exchange Mode, and you have lots of cached public folders. Usually, this problem occurs when you exceed approximately 1,000 public folders, or a gigabyte of space is taken.
    To prevent this problem, keep the number of cached public folders to fewer than 1,000. Or, reduce the number of folders until the error or errors stop occurring. If you are experiencing this problem, delete some public folder favorites by using the Outlook
    client. In some cases, if you have too many favorites, you may be unable to delete the folders because the error occurs when you click the public folder favorites folder.
    To delete the public folder favorites, follow these steps:
    1.Download MFCMAPI from http://mfcmapi.codeplex.com.
     2.Run MFCMAPI.exe.
     3.On the Session menu, click Logon and Display Store Table.
     4.If you are prompted for a profile, select your profile name, and then click OK.
     5.In the top pane, locate the line that corresponds to your mailbox, and double-click it.
     6.In the navigation pane (left-side pane), expand Root - Mailbox, and select the Shortcuts folder.
     7.In the results pane (right-side pane), locate the PR_FOLDER_CHILD_COUNT properties. The value contains the number of public folder favorites.
     8.In the navigation pane, right-click the Shortcuts folder, and then select Empty Items and Subfolders from Folder.
     9.Keep the default options, and then click OK.
    Good Luck.

  • Outlook 2010 - Cannot open your default e-mail folders. The requesting program is an incompatible version.

    Outlook 2002 was installed on one of our Windows Server 2003 Terminal Servers.  In the process of upgrading to Office 2010, the Outlook 2002 was replaced by Outlook 2010.  Although the other Office 2010 programs seem to work, when we try to use
    Outlook 2010 on this Terminal Server we get the following message.
    Microsoft Outlook
    Cannot open your default e-mail folders.  The requesting program is an incompatible version.  Contact your system administrator about upgrading your Microsoft Exchange Client.
    Does anyone have any ideas on how to correct this?
    Thanks,
    Tom

    Outlook 2010 is not supported in Windows Server 2003.  For Microsoft Outlook 2010, the following operating systems supports only the 32-bit edition of Office 2010:
    Windows XP with Service Pack 3 (SP3)
    Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2), MSXML 6.0
    Windows Server 2003 R2
    For more information about system requirements for Office 2010, please refer to:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee624351(v=office.14).aspx#section10
    Personal suggestion, we can upgrade your Windows server 2003 to higher version for more features.

  • Outlook 2010 - Cannot cancel a meeting as the organizer.

    On Outlook 2010 I do not have a 'Cancel Meeting' option. I can delete a meeting but the only option is to notify the organizer...  but I am the meeting organizer. I need to be able to cancel a meeting and notify all of the attendees. I currently do
    not have (or cannot find) this option!

    This happens after activesync. If you disable activesync for problematic user's mailbox, calendar didn't change meeting organizer (cancel, update meeting buttons).
    I found that - after meeting organizers mobile phone (nokia) synchronization,
    some values of meeting organizer was changed.
    You can look and compare organizer values (before and after sync)here:

    rgould5,
    There are three MAPI properties that Exchange clients can key off of for determining organizer information.  Here’s a quick summary
    of what they are with details on how to inspect them using the  MFCMAPI tool mentioned by Ripu:
    1.      
    For meeting requests, a Recipient table exists showing each attendee.  The organizer is represented here when PR_Recipient_Flags = 3
    2.      
    PR_ Sent_Representing_Email_Address and/or PR_Sender_Email_Address
    3.      
    named prop0x8217 dispidapptstateflags [can also show up as MessageStatus]
    if the value is 1 = olMeeting it means you’re the organizer
    if the value is 3 = olMeetingRecieved it means you received the item so you can’t possibly be the organizer
    In your situation, the organizer seems to be modified on the calendar item in all three users’ mailboxes at the same time.  This
    usually means an application that has privileges to each mailbox is the culprit.  Generally, if ActiveSync or an ActiveSync device is contributing to the problem, only the mobile device user’s calendar item would be affected.
    The best approach is to inspect which organizer attributes are changed on each person’s calendar item.  Then, with careful repro steps, see if
    you can identify the user or service account that is making the changes.  Take a look at the examples below:
    Here’s the details of what Recipient Table looks like [requires MFCMAPI available
    http://mfcmapi.codeplex.com from a PC with Outlook].  This isn’t a user friendly tool, but it’s very helpful in identifying what’s changed. 
    When you first launch the tool, select the menu item
    Session, Logon and Display Store Table.
    Now select an Outlook profile to login with
    If you see
    Mailbox - <username> in the list of display names you’re doing good.  Double-click this to launch the next window.
    In this window, drill into the mailbox 
    MFCMAPI Recipient Table
    -To find the appointment you’re troubleshooting, go to the calendar folder underneath IPM_SUBTREE.  Sorting by Subject will usually help get to
    item quickest.  Select the item, and Action Menu(?) / and Display Attachment table.    You will see a list of recipients in a new window.  There should be a "3" in the PR-RECIPIENTS_FLAGS columb for the organizer.
    - A healthy recipient table - the PR_RECIPIENT_FLAGS indicates whether a recipient is the organizer, or an attendee [this column is actually all the
    way to the right ].  When the PR_RECIPIENT_FLAGS = 3, that indicates the organizer.  For example, if the delegate organized a meeting with the manager and E2k7 Native being the required attendees. PR_Recipient_Flag should be 3 for the Delegate. 
    If not, then the calender item was modified by something.
    - Going back to the calender item,
    PR_SENDER_EMAIL  shows Distinguished Name (DN) of the sender.
    - Ok.  Back on the calender item, if the organizer is listed as wrong person, look to see the last person to modify the item.  Here’s
    where you can find out what account last modified the calendar item.   Look at the Column "Property Names" for row PR_Last_Modifier_Name.  This is the account that last modified the item and is probably the culprit. 
    I hope this helps!

  • Outlook 2010 cannot send/receive mail AND states mailbox is being optimized due to upgrade AND outlook hotmail connector needs updating.

    As of 2014-March, the same thing happening on my system. This seems to have occurred, after the latest batch of 28 patches (including SP2 - KB2687455) from Microsoft Updates applied on 13-Mar-2014 and 19-Mar-2014.  I have been running Outlook 2010
    since it was first available.
    An unhelpful error is thrown, after trying to manually perform a Send/Receive:
    Not Implemented
    While in Outlook 2010, clicking FILE > INFO reveals the following warnings in red:
    "Upgrade in Progress. Your mailbox is currently being optimized as part of upgrade to Outlook 2010. This one time process may take over 15 minutes and performance may be affected while the optimization is in progress."
    There's an "Upgrade Now" button but it fails to produce any visible result. Next to the button, another warning in red:
    "You must upgrade to the latest version of Outlook Hotmail Connector to continue using this e-mail account."
    Again, I do not have the Outlook Hotmail Connector installed. Nor have I recently upgraded to Outlook 2010.
    I am unable to access ANY account settings, as well as poll my various mailboxes.
    While reviewing the list of installed updates (Control Panel > Programs and Features > View Installed Updates), there are 28 approximate patches -
    specifically, Service Pack 2 (KB2687455) - that were recently applied to Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010.
    Microsoft, what the #$%# is going on?
    I've read some related posts that suggest the core issue is other than what Outlook is reporting.  The posts recommend the following.  However, in my case, the below steps did not correct the
    issue.  In fact, the new profile would not allow me to view/manage the associated accounts or data files.
    (1) Remove your current Outlook Profile. No worries - this doesn't affect your mail data (.PST files):
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-au/outlook-help/remove-a-profile-HP010356455.aspx
    (2) Create a new Outlook Profile:
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-au/outlook-help/introduction-to-profiles-HA010355553.aspx
    Note: Outlook complained "An unknown error occurred, error code: 0x80040154."  However, exiting the Mail config window and relaunching shows that the new profile is intact.
    (3) If you previously had the Outlook Hotmail Connector installed, reinstall it.  If not, then just ignore and the warning should go away after creating a new Profile.
    32-bit connector: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=24677

    I was able to resolve this issue as follows.  However, why it occurred is unknown at this time and
    unrelated to a corrupted Outlook Profile, as mentioned on my prior post.  It seems highly probable that it was caused by the recent batch of Microsoft Updates for this product which included Service Pack (SP) 2.
    1) Performed a "repair" of Outlook 2010, via the Control Panel > Programs and Features.
    2) Rebooted.
    3) Prior to launching Outlook, returned to Control Panel > Mail and configured the location of my PST file (not in default directory).
    4) Had to reestablish as off my mail accounts, settings/preferences/etc. This step was the most tedious and frustrating.

  • Microsoft Outlook 2010 cannot connect to exchange server

    I have just got Microsoft Outlook 2010 and I cannot open it.
    When I click to open it I get an error message saying that "the connection to microsoft exchange is unavailable. Microsoft must be online or connected to complete this action"
    I have checked my connection www.testexchangeconnectivity.com
    and everything is OK here. I can connect through owa and I use the exchange server on my ipad and my phone so I have no idea what is going on.
    I have tried lots of other solutions that have been on forums but none of them have worked for me. Please can you help?

    PS apologies for the green text but I copied and pasted the web link and could not get rid of the green text afterwards!

    Hi,
    If you test on www.testexchangeconnectivity.com is ok.
    Maybe it has some issue on Client setting.
    So please check if client setting is correct and if you fill the DNS server on client and can resolve the Exchange URL.

  • Outlook 2010 : Cannot start Microsoft Outlook. Cannot open the Outlook window.

    Hi
    Using Outlook 2010 with an Exchange 2003 back-end.
    Already have an Outlook profile (created in Outlook 2003).
    When launching Outlook 2010 I get:
      "Cannot start Microsoft Outlook. Cannot open the Outlook window"
    I've read several posts with this error message and a common "workaround" / "solution" was to run:  “Outlook.exe /resetnavpane”
    I tried that and it didnt resolve the issue.
    The only way I found to resolve this was to create a new Outlook profile.
    Launching with a new Outlook profile works fine.
    - Is this a "known issue" ?
    - Is there a way to diagnose / throubleshoot further without having to create a new profile?
    Thanks
    - AL

    Hi,
    Thank you for using Outlook IT Pro Discussions forum. 
    This problem can occur when file that maintains the Navigation Pane settings becomes corrupted. This file is called profilename.xml, where profilename is the name
    of your Outlook profile. Normally, we can resolve this issue by starting Outlook with the command
    Outlook.exe /resetnavpane
    or
    creating a new Outlook profile.
    Next time, you may also try to rename the profilename.xml from the folder first to see if the issue can be resolved:
    Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
    Windows Vista, Windows 7: C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Outlook
    For more information, you can refer to this KB article:

  • Outlook 2010 cannot connect to exchange

    I have outlook 2010 installed on my windows 7 laptop which connects to exchange server as domain user without issue. On another windows 7 computer, logged in with the same domain account, I tried to set up office 2010 but no matter what I have tried, it
    will not connect and keeps prompting me for my domain name and password. I have re-installed office 2010 several times, recreated the user profile, deleted out any office folders I could find in appdata etc. but to no avail. I have looked in credential management
    but find nothing there. Tried setting up the email profile though control panel mail but that wont work either.

  • ICloud and Outlook 2010: "Your setup couldn't be started because of an unexpected error". Any ideas?

    Hi,
    It looks like iCloud has a problem with Outlook 2010 - when syncing calendars. I repeatedly get the rather vague error message above when I launch the set-up, then the iCloud control panel hangs. If I wait long enough I get "The operation could not be completed".
    Anyone else getting this? Seems to work find for contacts, BTW.
    Codfishpie

    Hi,
    This was happening to me with Outlook 2007 and the iCloud Control Panel (CP). I spent days trying to get it sorted out and as usual once it worked I wasn't completely sure what exactly fixed it.
    This is what I did:
    1. Ensured Outlook 2007 was completely up to date with Windows Update.
    2. Unchecked everything in iCloud CP.
    3. Logged out of iCloud CP and when asked I removed all contacts, calendars on my PC.
    4. Uninstalled iCloud CP.
    5. Redownloaded and reinstalled iCloud CP.
    6. Logged into iCloud via iCloud CP.
    7. Checked Mail, Contacts and Calendars.
    8. Didn't get the error message and now I can see all my contacts and calendar stuff from iCloud in Outlook 2007.
    HTH.

  • Lync 2010 and Outlook 2010 cannot save conversation history

    I have a user that is having issues saving their conversations to Outlook 2010. It is isolated to 1 user and follows that user no matter what machine they log into. They have the feature turned on to save their conversations to outlook and i even see the
    conversation history start to queue up, but it will not get sent to outlook. The issue 2 weeks ago for them and as far as i can tell nothing was done to their account.

    Hi,
    Lync client save the conversation history to outlook through EWS, If the EWS is not possible it will go through MAPI. So please check the user's lync client Configuration Information, make sure the EWS deploy is OK and you can find the EWS URI.
    You also can try to change the EWSFindCountLimit for this user.
    New-ThrottlingPolicy –Name LyncClientPolicy –EWSFindCountLimit $null
    Set-Mailbox -Identity usermailAddress –ThrottlingPolicy LyncClientPolicy

  • ICloud with outlook 2010: Cannot access email in the client

    Remove the mail profile and try again.

    Hello Spiceheads,
    Here is the issue. An end user has iCloud and downloaded and installed the client on her workstation. Up until about a couple of weeks ago, it was working just fine. Now, in outlook 2010, it constantly prompts for a username and password. The kicker is that she is using the correct one. I had her login to the web interface with the same username and password and she logged in just fine. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but that didnt fix the issues. Any suggestions?

    Also - if i set this user up on another machine and configure outlook, they can view the emails fine

    Hi,
    Since Office 2007, in Outlook the messages are rendered by Word not Internet Explorer. The issue seems to be more related to Word program.
