Room Finder not working with Address Book Policies

Hi,
I have an issue with Room Finder and Address Book Policies whereby when a mailbox user is apart of an ABP they cannot see any rooms within the room finder in Outlook. They can however see their organisations rooms in the address book (which is
the intended outcome of using ABPs)
If the user is part of the default GAL (no ABP) then all roomlists can be seen in room finder making me suspect that the problem is with the ABP
I came across an article which is very similar to the problem that I am encountering however I am already using the suggested fix (using recipient filters) -
Background to configuration
We have a multi tenant exchange 2013 environment where each tenant is segmented from other tenants by the use of address book policies.
Each tenant have been set-up using the following cmdlets:
New-GlobalAddressList -Name "TenantName - GAL" -ConditionalCustomAttribute15 "ABC" -IncludedRecipients MailboxUsers -RecipientContainer "Path/to/OU
New-AddressList -Name "TenantName - All Rooms" -RecipientFilter "(CustomAttribute15 -eq 'ABC') -and (RecipientDisplayType -eq 'ConferenceRoomMailbox')" -RecipientContainer "Path/to/OU
New-AddressList -Name "TenantName - All Users" -RecipientFilter "(CustomAttribute15 -eq 'ABC') -and (ObjectClass -eq 'User')" -RecipientContainer "Path/to/OU
New-AddressList -Name "TenantName - All Contacts" -RecipientFilter "(CustomAttribute15 -eq 'ABC) -and (ObjectClass -eq 'Contact')" -RecipientContainer "Path/to/OU
New-AddressList -Name "TenantName - All Groups" -RecipientFilter "(CustomAttribute15 -eq 'ABC') -and (ObjectClass -eq 'Group')" -RecipientContainer "Path/to/OU
New-OfflineAddressBook -Name "TenantName" -AddressLists "TenantName - GAL" 
New-AddressBookPolicy -Name "TenantName" -AddressLists "TenantName - All Users", "TenantName - All Contacts", "TenantName - All Groups" -GlobalAddressList "TenantName - GAL" -OfflineAddressBook "TenantName"
-RoomList "TenantName - All Rooms"
As you can see each address list is populated by custom attribute 15 corresponding to the tenants code (of local significance) and the OU that the object resides in.
N.B. I have rebuilt my outlook profile, switched to non-cached mode to no avail
To reiterate, the ABP is working great apart from this room finder feature issue, each tenant can only see their rooms in their address book just not in the room finder.
I have tried to build distribution group roomlists and set the custom attribute and OU to test but this didn't work as I'm aware you can only have address lists in the set-addressbookpolicy -roomlist cmdlet parameter, not distribution groups

Hi Winnie,
Apologies for not replying sooner, I've been busy over New Year!
I have already seen/followed similar instructions to create roomlist's to no avail.
The roomlist's created are all visible to a user when they are not apart of an ABP but when they are part of an ABP it shows no roomlists within room Finder.
As initially mentioned, the tenants rooms can be seen in their address book just not in room finder!
Here is the powershell results

  • Help! iTunes not working with Address Book

    I have the latest iTunes and the newest version of Adressbook.
    When I go to Sync my iPhone 4.  The Address Book Groups that appear in iTunes (under the INFO section) are not the same as the groups in my Address Book program.
    I tried deleting all the contacts off my iPhone and then re-starting the computer and then restoring them, but iTunes will not pull the new Groups into the program.  iTunes just continues to display the old Groups that no longer exist in Address Book (because I have deleted them) nor will it show the new Groups I've created. 
    Is there a way to reset this area?  Or wipe out the preferences.  I don't want to lose by iPhone backups.
    Thanks.

    Apple Store said the only soluction was to wipe computer clean and re-install system from original disks and restore from back-up.

  • Search option does not work in address book

    The search field (upper right corner of window) does not work in address book (version 4.0.5) of my friend's Power Book. I eliminated the possibility of a corrupt plist (preference) file by dragging them to the desktop and restarting but it still didn't help. Any other ideas?
    Meg

    If searching in Spotlight works, I don’t know what could be the problem. You may try this:
    1. Open Address Book.
    2. As an extra safety measure, do File > Back up Address Book and save the backup wherever you wish.
    3. Go to Address Book > Preferences > vCard, set the vCard Format to 3.0 and check Export notes in vCards. Close the Preferences window when done.
    4. Select the All group in the main Address Book window and do File > Export Group vCard (the command should read “Export Group vCard”, not just “Export vCard”).
    5. Quit Address Book, Mail, and any other applications that might use Address Book for something. Or just quit all applications to be on the safe side.
    6. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/ and trash any ABPerson.skIndex files you may see there. Open Address Book and check whether the problem is fixed.
    7. If the problem persists, quit Address Book again, in the Finder go to ~/Library/Application Support/, and move the entire AddressBook folder out of there, e.g. to the Desktop (to be deleted after fixing the problem and making sure you don’t miss anything).
    8. Open Address Book and try doing File > Revert to Address Book Backup to restore the backup you made in step 2. If the problem persists, repeat step 7 and this time try doing File > Import > vCards to import the cards exported in step 4.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. That is, ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder, i.e. /Users/username/Library.

  • Palm contacts do not sync with address book

    Contact data from my Palm Tungsten does not sync with Address Book. I am running the latest Palm OS and Desktop with iSync 1.5 and Panther OS 10.3.9. Calendar is syncing correctly. According to the log, iSync thinks that the Address Book is also working but no data gets transferred in either directon. Any suggestions? Thanks.
    Power Book   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    Hi,
    i also used iSync for a long time with my Tungsten. BUT(!) iSync is very poor! I learned to know MissingSync and this is a really cool App! Now i have categories in my calender after syncing with my Titanium, i have all adresses and there are a lot of more cool features. Look here:

  • ICloud not syncing with Address Book on Mac

    I've updated my Address Book and now it won't sync to iCloud, which means my contacts are no longer on my iphone either. Why won't iCloud sync with the address book on my computer?

    Wanted to post an update for those of you who use Entourage for contacts, have iCloud, and like to sync with your iPhone. 
    I have Entourage set to update to the Address Book (Entourage Preferences - Sync Services - Sync to Address Book - Combine Data) and after fixing the original problem noted above, I later decided to have my iphone backed up and synced through iCloud. 
    Well - iCloud and Entourage don't play nice together - so none of my contacts were updating either direction and I had duplicates in Address Book again.  Apple did not have answers for me when I called, so I spent the day trying to fix it and came up with the following and figured I'd pay it forward and post for anyone else with the same issue.
    The only option at this time is to sync your Contacts with iTunes instead.  Even though Entourage used to update wirelessly with MobileMe - it does not work with iCloud due to different CalDav systems.  You can still do iPhone backups and sync your calendars and photos over iCloud (which I am still doing), but Contacts just won't work. 
    Steps:
    1. Backup your good list of contacts somewhere (I ensured everything on Entourage was right and did an archive)
    2. To be extra safe, be sure you have a good phone back up too (either over iCloud or iTunes)
    3. Uncheck sync to Address Book in Entourage
    4. Delete everything in Address Book and uncheck sync/account to iCloud 
    5. Go into System Preferences - iCloud, and uncheck sync Contacts.  When it asks you if you want to delete what's on your mac - you can say yes - it will not delete anything in Entourage.  By now all your contacts in Address Book, iCloud and on your phone should be gone (it's scary I know)
    6. Go to your phone settings - iCloud and turn off Contacts there too
    7. Entourage - Preferences - Sync Services - turn on syncing with Address Book/Mobile Me (I chose to Combine data assuming this would allow data to travel both directions in the future).  It should populate address book in just a minute or two
    8. Plug your phone into your computer and open iTunes
    9. Check "Sync Contacts" and hit Apply.  I'd suggest syncing it right there with your phone plugged in. 
    After that, you can either sync each time you plug in and open iTunes, or you can sync over your own wifi network when your phone is plugged in.  It will not sync over any wifi like it used to do with MobileMe - so still far from an optimum solution, but hopefully Apple and/or Entourage will fix this soon.  The only other solution I could think of was to switch to Mail & Contacts since I like to use them both in same place, but I really didn't want to do that (mail isn't that great and I didn't want to take the time to make the switch).
    If anyone has anything better to suggest, please let us know!!! 

  • Sonyericsson K750i - doesn't work with address book

    works great with iSync, doesn't work at all with the address book. no sms, no dial. any solutions? thanks!
    10.4.6

    I'm also having this issue. While the phone appears to "pair" with Address Book and the options for SMS and dial are available, they perform no function at all as far as I can tell.
    iSync works fine with the phone now however (thanks to 10.4.9). If anyone has any further information, it would be very much appreciated.

  • D900 sms / call doesn't work with address book

    Unlike similar posts,
    the 'SMS' and 'Dial with' options ARE avaliable and the phone pairs just fine.
    However, when I type a message and send, nothing happens phone side. Same with dial a call.
    The bluetooth emblem on the Adress book remains glowing blue. The phone doesn't seem to stay connected though(?).
    at least I can sync now though (10.4.9)
    Thanks for any insight!!!

  • 'Sort by last name' not working in Address Book

    In Address book, the 'sort' function (under preferences-General) does not work for half my contacts (all people rather than companies). This does not work for 'by first name', nor 'by last name'. This random list appears at the top of address book, followed by properly sorted entries.
    Curiously, the most recently inputted entries do sort properly, as do all company entries.
    On MobileMe, everything sorts properly
    On my iPhone address book, the same problem, except the random unsorted list now appears after the properly sorted entries (under the category #)
    Is there any reason why this is happening, and any fix for this?

    Curiously, the most recently inputted entries do sort properly, as do all company entries.
    Does that mean "most recently inputted" AFTER you upgraded to Snow Leopard?
    If that is true, it would mean that something about your existing records before the upgrade, for the records that are people contacts (with first and last names) instead of business contacts, do not agree with Snow Leopard and/or Snow Leopard's version of Address Book.
    This may not be feasible, but if you exported the records with this problems and then imported them, maybe they will be re-inputted so that are properly sorted.
    If you use Time Machine, maybe you can use the +flying through space+ interface to restore one of the records with this problem to see if the restore process makes the record sort properly.

  • Spotlight not working in Address Book

    I have upgraded to Snow Leopard and have noticed that when in the Address Book application that the spotlight does not function properly. Previously it would drill down to the specific text entered. Now nothing happens. Has anyone had this problem? Is there a fix?

    I checked the spotlight preferences under the system preferences tab. the contacts box is checked. I could not locate any other places to set preferences for spotlight.
    My upgrade to snow leopard was Sept 15th. That should be enough time for the system to index. I have also noticed at times that the contact data is mixed up. One contacts info in another contacts file. Using disk utility I repaired my drive. There were a couple of errors but they were repaired successfully.
    During the last month I also purchased new RAM for the machine. I replaced the original 1GB with 3 GB. I don't see how this would be a problem though. Machine still seems to run fine.
    Any further thoughts on why Address Book is not working? Is there a way to force Address Book to reindex?

  • IPOD Touch does not sync with Address Book

    Hello,
    I recently purchased a 16GB iPOD Touch. I synced with itunes on my Mac successfully (10.5.1), however i am unable to get my Address Book to sync with the iPOD
    Any ideas - i have enabled iTunes/iPOD to sync with my Address Book when i connect my iPOD, but no joy.
    Ideas?
    Thanks

    I can no longer sync my iPod Touch with my Address Book. I'm not sure if this started after I updated iTunes (now at 7.6.2), but the two no longer sync. I tried clicking the advanced option (Info tab in iTunes) to copy over all contacts to my iPod, but nothing changed. I tried the advice to check only a few groups, and it did remove the other groups. So I tried reducing the # of groups I was using.... Then when I checked sync all contacts again, all the old groups showed up again on my iPod, that no longer existed in my Address Book. Strange! Also frustrating and time-consuming.
    I don't think this question is "answered" yet. Has anyone found a solution? How do you notify Apple of this type of problem?

  • IPhone does not sync with Address Book

    When syncing my iPhone, Address Book and Contacts do not sync.
    Called applecare, they were totally unhelpful!
    I now have changed Address Book entries on my Mac, as well as independently changed and added other contacts on the iPhone, so I am afraid to blow away one or the other libraries and lose one of these sets of changes. At least that's what I think is being recommended in the other thread that comes up on this topic: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1413283?start=0&tstart=0
    Using iPhone 3GS with recent MacBook Pro (10.6.8). All software updated, etc.
    Thanks for any help.

    Thanks for the tip.
    I reset the sync history as you suggested.
    When syncing again, contacts are tranferred from Mac to iPhone (or so it says). Once.
    But contacts created on the phone have not been transferred in the other direction.
    And when I create a test contact on my mac and sync again, it does not transfer.
    Any thoughts?

  • Search field does not work in Address Book

    Text typed into Address Book's search field just sits there. No hits, no response whatsoever.
    It used to work . . .
    Spotlight itself seems fine. It locates contacts in Address Book.
    I've rebuilt the Spotlight index.

    Same issue....for a couple of months now....starting to see enough of us that it is an issue. I've deleted plists, etc, etc. Anybody have any ideas? I have 1000+ names in my address book....

  • IPod will not sync with Address Book after 1.2 software update

    After restoring my 5g iPod it no longer syncs my contacts in Address Book. A dialog box opens stating that "no contacts" are available, would I like to open the Address Book, where lo and behold are all my contacts staring back at me! I have contacts in my Address Book but the iTunes 7 software doesn't recognize them.
    Help!

    another way to add contacts (this is wat i use) is to
    enable ur ipod for disk usage. Then u go to "my
    computer" on ur computer, select ur ipod, and drag
    vcard files into the contacts folder
    to make vcard files, u can either double click on the
    instructions in the contacts folder and then change
    the info and save in ur ipod contacts folder as a
    vcard, or else open microsoft outlook, type in info,
    and save in ur ipod contacts folder as vcard.
    (note:hitting save without selecting vcard and ur
    ipod will save it to ur ocmputer)
    Sorry but I'm not using Microsoft Outlook but Address Book in Mac OS-X!
