Outlook error message

Hello All:
The problem that I have is that whenever I try to access the my address book from Corel WordPerfect X6, I get the following message:
Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Outlook and set it as the default mail client.
When I go into Outlook to set it as the default mail client, the box already has a check mark in it. Can someone please tell me how do I get rid of this error message, it is driving me crazy, Allen.

Hi,
This issue may occur if the Outlook registry key is corrupted. When other programs try to use the Outlook Simple MAPI interface, they cannot retrieve the required information from the registry.
To resolve this issue, you must first remove the corrupted Outlook registry key, and then perform a Detect and Repair operation to have Outlook rebuild the key. Please refer to the following KB article and follow the steps described to resolve the problem:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/813745/en-us
Hope this helps.

  • 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.

  • Microsoft Office Outlook Error Message

    Can't open Microsoft Office Outlook. the following error message appears everytime i try to open the email:
    errors have been detected in the file: C:\users\TPRJ001\AppData\local\microsoft\outlook\outlook1.ost
    quit outlook and all mail-enabled applications, and then use the repair tool (scanpst.exe) to diagnose and repair errors in the file

    Hi,
    Based on the research, this issue can be caused by several factors, such as the corrupt PST
    file, incompatible Outlook add-ins, and corrupt Outlook Profile. At this point, I recommend that we follow the steps below to troubleshoot this issue.
    Step 1: Repair the PST
    file
    =====================
    The "Microsoft Office Outlook Inbox Repair Tool" utility is available to repair the PST
    file. I suggest you perform the following steps to run this utility and repair the PST
    file first.
    1.       
    Click Start, click Run, enter "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OfficeXX\SCANPST.EXE" and press Enter.
    NOTE: If Inbox Repair Tool window does not appear, please click Start, click Search and search for "SCANPST.EXE"
    file.
    2.       
     In the Inbox Repair Tool, please enter/paste the path below:
    C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Outlook.pst
    3.       
    Click Start to begin scanning your
    file.
    When you are finished with the Inbox Repair Tool, restart Outlook to check the results.
    If the issue persists, let's start the Outlook in Safe Mode to test the issue.
    In this mode, the add-ins won't be loaded with the Outlook program and it will become more stable.
    Step 2: Start Outlook in Safe Mode
    ===============================
    1. Close Outlook first. Click Start, and click on Run.
    2. In the Open field, type: "Outlook /safe" (without the quotation marks).
       Notes: There is a space character between Outlook and the forward slash (/).
    3. Press Enter.
    However, if the error message still occurs when exiting Outlook, I recommend that we create a new Outlook profile to troubleshoot the issue.
    Note: A new Profile is a new environment for us to use Outlook. To create a new Profile is only for a test to see if the problem is related to the corrupt Profile of Outlook. Creating new Profile will not do any damage to the old Profile.
    Step 3: Test in a new Outlook Profile
    ============================
    1. On the Start menu, click Control Panel.
    2. Click Switch to Classic View, and then click the Mail icon.
    3. In the Mail Setup dialog box, click the Show Profiles button.
    4. On the General tab, click to select the Prompt for a profile to be used check box.
    5. Click Add.
    6. In the Profile Name box, type a descriptive name for the new profile, and then click OK.
    7. In the E-mail Accounts dialog box, click Add a new e-mail account, and then click Next.
    8. Select the appropriate server type for your new e-mail account, and then click Next.
    9. Fill in the appropriate information as prompted to configure the account again, and then click Next.
    10. Click OK.
    11. Restart Outlook and select the new profile in the popup window.
    12. Please check if the issue occurs in the new/empty Outlook profile.
    For more information, please refer to the following Knowledge Base article:
    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;829918
    If the issue still occurs, please let us know.

  • Curve 8520 synchronis​ation with outlook error message

    trying to synchronise my blackberry with my outlook and keep getting an error message saying "no available messege stores"  anyone help thanks Paul

    Hi.  I messaged yesterday that I had the same error @ line 131 issue (could not sync calendar entries that have reoccurence in their make-up).  Non-reoccuring items did sync.  Blackberry support was absolutely of no use (3 hours on the phone with them resulted in absolutely no solution)
    Today i did all sorts of stuff to overcome or bypass the problem, but basically could not solve it.  SO....I uninstalled BB desktop software - and then re-installed it....problem solved!  Don't ask how or why.....but it worked for me

  • Office 365 - Outlook error message when sending an email

    Error Message: "The operation failed. The message interfaces have returned an unknown error. If the problem persists restart Outlook." By simply recreating a new email with the same message I am able to send. In most cases there are a lot of
    attachments that I must search for because I cannot copy & paste attachments from the old email to the new. I have other goofy problems with Outlook but want to deal with this first as it is very time consuming rebuilding these emails.

    Hi,
    Please create a new Outlook profile for your account to check whether the issue persists. If it works well in the new profile. The issue should be caused by Outlook Data Files corrupting. To create a new Outlook profile, please refer to:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/829918/en-us
    If the issue continues in new profile, please restart Outlook in safe mode(Start > Run > Outlook /safe) to check whether the issue is caused by any third-party add-ins.

  • DESPERATE FOR HELP since downloading a separate outlook (from fast hosts) as addition to office mac 11 I can no longer access any Microsoft aps or documents including outlook - error messages 'can not change to identity for outlook'

    I had office 2011 installed on my computer without outlook - been working fine.
    I was given a trial of outlook decided against it at time due to cost - however my server provider fasthost have been offering outlook for free with a busines mail package. Trying to install it wouldn't due to the trail versions - so they gave me a step by step guide to remove outlook files.
    Once i completed this the new outlook worked fine for 24 hours - however then we noticed all of our office programmes had been removed aka can not access any data and we are a management consultancy. Then fasthost recommended we reinstall out orginal office CD which I did and then all of sudden when download was completed everything now is inaccessable.
    When I open outlook the message relays ' can not change to that idenity' I have tried to set up a new idenity and change permissions and even rebuilding it as per on line guides but when rebuilding it fails at the first step
    Rest of office IE WORD, EXCEL I just get microsforft has encountered a problem and needs to close unexpectidly everytime I try and click into it.
    I am now despirate as this is the second day we have had no access to anything and 6 day we have had no access to our documents \
    FASTSHOST do everything via email and no incoming phone line (which they will give anyway) so I really need help
    Any options advice greatly recieved
    I am also using the most recent software and have been doing regular software updates OS X Lion.

    I, too am wondering if it's the download site. I am not aware of any way to download Outlook Mac 2011 alone from any site including Microsoft's.
    It is common for unscrupulous sites to offer desirable but pirated software for a modest price, but serve it up with a dose malware. They get you money, possible a credit card number, your e-mail, your IP address, and all you get is pain.
    There was an "Outlook Express" for Mac that was freely distrubuted but I'll pretty sure that it never ran natively under OSX. The first OSX native version fo Office:Mac was Office X, and it introduced Entourage as the Mac mail client.
    IF Fast Hosts is your ISP, I'd certainly talk to them to figure out what you downloaded.

  • Syncing iphone with windows 7 contacts - error message outlook.pst not foun

    I have set set up ITunes to sync my Iphone GS with Windows Contacts. When I sync I get an error message :
    The file c:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Mapi\1033\Outlook.pst could not be found
    Sometimes the error message comes up 2 or 3 times.
    Secondly, my Iphone is syncing with something because an old version of my windows address book is now on my iphone. Of course if I add a new contact to Windows Contacts, it does not appear on my iphone.
    I dont have Outlook installed on my PC. It was removed, but I guess I do have an old outlook.pst file from my old times with Windows XP.
    So how does Itunes manage the sync and how can I stop it syncing with my old address book and use Windows Contacts? I have tried resetting my sync history but it did not work.
    I am running Windows7 (upgrade from Vista).

    I am also having issues with syncing my Iphone 3GS with the latest version on Itunes. I have for a long while now been doing just great. My contacts, phone numbers, emails have all synced very nicely, no problems. As soon as I downloaded the new Itunes 9.1 I can no longer sync contacts, and calendars, as usual.
    I tried several things that were suggested to me in the troubleshooting but nothing has helped. It usually tells me that my computer is not set up for syncing, and after arranging that it still doesn't work. As well, it says it cannot find the requested services.
    Please help.
    I am running windows 7, and have been for a while, it's not windows 7, it's the new Itunes upgrade.

  • I have recently bought a macbook and am using outlook 2011 as email. i am getting an error message 4.7.0 not allowed when sending emails how do I fix?

    i have a macbook and am using outlook 2011 as email.   receiving okay.   sending okay sometimes.  am now getting error message 4.7.0 not allowed when sending.  what is the cause? how do I fix please?

    I have discovered that the emails have in fact been sent but much later, maybe it's a network problem with the people i am sending it to.  so i checked my sent items and they are there, but at the time the email doesn't go straight into the sent box or drafts so i'm assuming it's disappeared and type it again.  i'll keep going with it, until someone can give me a possible solution or explanation as to what is happening.

  • I am in need of desperate help ... my Outlook (2011) is regularly asking for my password and throws up an error message (Yellow triangle)

    I have done a bunch of google searches and as best as I can understand it, because I have 2 devices (iPhone, and now iMac) that are trying to look to the mail server at the same time, a problems exists.
    My ISP is Time Warner by the way and is a rr (road runner) email address, a POP email as best as I can understand it.
    Eventually, the mail does finally "break through" and is delivered but there is a time lag for receiving my mail.  I thought that at first, it could be an "Outlook" issue, but successfully set up the "Mail" icon that comes pre-bundled on my iMac, and the same error message is being hit.
    How can I PLEASE get some help ... I am beyond frustrated and KNOW that if I call Apple, they will blame Time Warner and RR and if I call Time Warner RR, they will blame Apple.  Can somebodoy please help me before I lose my mind?
    The error message I get is that my account is locked by another session or by maintenance and asks me for my password (which I know to be correct).

    In mail, go to Window - Connection Doctor & report what the result is for your outgoing server ( usually the last item in the list of tested items )
    is the outgoing server in mail entered exactly as on your pc?, you're using the same isp as before?
    most of these type of issues are easily resolved - come back with a little more info + armed with your mail server details that you used on he pc.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
