Send attachments from finder via Outlook 2011 for Mac

I am trying to right click attachments in finder and choose send by mail. Unfortunately only mac mail comes up and I need to use outlook 2011. Its installed and chosen as default in both outlook settings and mail settings.
Can drag attachments to outlook icon but would be easy to have right click option.
Auto optimize size of attachments like outlook for windows did would also be helpful for large file sizes.

I believe this article should resolve this problem for you:
Create a Service to attach files to a new Outlook for Mac mail message
Also, you should be able to drag/drop a file from the Finder onto the Outlook icon on the Dock.

  • Mails with suspicious links are send to contacts in my Outlook 2011 for Mac

    Hi all
    I have now for two days experienced that emails seems to be sent from my Outlook 2011 for Mac to 4 or 5 people from my contacts with suspicious links - they do not apear in my sent box - but I do get an copy sent to my own inbox ?
    Does anyone know what this is and what to do ?
    Regards
    Gert

    Sounds like your mail account has been hacked. Change the password immediately to a long, random, all over the keyboard one. Never use an ordinary word that can be found in the dictionary. My mail pword is 15 characters long.

  • Synchronisation from iCal to Outlook 2011 for MAC

    I am wondering when Apple will start supporting reminder/task synchronisation between iCal---iCloud---Office 2011 Mac. Even though new Office versions have been released Outlook 2011 will be around for some time and this would be something rather simple to create right?
    The strange things is that it is supported for Outlook 2011 Windows.
    So when I have dual boot I can see my Icloud reminders as tasks in Outlook but if I boot on Mac i can't see them in Outlook. How weird is that Apple...?
    If Apple is not going to do anything about this, is there anything possible with a script perhaps that works between iCal and Outlook 2011 Mac? that would be a proper workaround at least.
    Also curious actually as to why this functionality was not added.

    INFORMATION on Emailchemy from another Forum
    I’ve found a way in which you can import Apple Mail into Outlook 2011 on Mac OS X Lion.
    The software I’m running is Mac OS X 10.7.2 on a 2011 MacBook Pro.
    You need to purchase an app called Emailchemy. It’s 29.99 for an individual license, and 49.99 for a family license. There are enterprise versions available as well.
    Once you run the app, you need to do the following:
    1. Export all mailboxes from Apple Mail to your desktop (or any other suitable location on your computer). You do this by selecting the mailbox, and then clicking on “Mailbox”, and then “Export Mailbox”. Save the destination, and the file is saved automatically.
    2. Then you open Emailchemy and do the following:
    - click on “toolbox” in the bottom left hand corner
    - click on the second box on the top left hand called “advanced email conversion”
    - click on “add file”
    - select the folder (s) you just exported from Apple Mail (e.g. Inbox.mbox)
    Now here comes the trick
    - select format “apple mail 1.0 in the format option at the bottom
    - then 3 sub-folders will appear “info-p.list”, “mbox” and “table of contents”
    Select “mbox”
    - click on “convert” and choose a save file name. Choose the format “MBOX file (standard mbox)”
    - click on save
    And you then have a folder created which Outlook 2011 recognizes and can import.
    I just imported all my Apple Mail into Outlook 2011 – it works really well too – the formatting, attachments, etc are all there!
    Hope this helps.

  • Outlook 2011 for Mac users must click send/receive to get new mail from exchange 2013 server

    I recently switched our primary CAS servers over from a single exchange 2010 cas/mailbox/hub server to a couple new exchange 2013 CAS/Mailbox servers.  Exchange 2013 has cu3, and is hosted on windows server 2012.  Anyone who has their mailbox hosted
    on one of these exchange 2013 servers has an issue where they must click the send/receive button to get new messages downloaded to their client. This is only the case for outlook 2011 for mac client.  Activesync clients, mac mail, OWA, and Outlook 2010/13
    all behave normally.
    Where can I look or what can I check to troubleshoot this issue?

    Hi,
    Any good news from the Mac Forum?

  • I cannot send email from Outlook 2011 (for Mac). But can send from other applications

    I have Outlook 2011 for Mac - I have validated the settings and up until yesterday could send and receive emails using my .mac account.
    I can send using icloud and mail (I use Outlook for work purposes) and can send in outlook using my work accounts.
    My settings
    Incoming server - imap.mail.me.com
    Use SSL to connect checked.
    Outgoing server - smtp.mail.me.com
    override default port checked (port 587)
    use SSL to connect checked
    authentication - Username and password.
    I have rebuilt the database - no effect.
    I continue to get the error
    "Mail could not be sent
    The server for account "mac" returned the error. 5.7.8. Bad Username or password (Authentication failed..)" Your username/password or security settings may be incorrect. Would you like to try rentering your password"
    I have validated my username and password and rentered them both.
    I have emptied the outbox and retried but nothing works.
    Thanks for the help.

    Update - I now have it working.
    am not really sure what exactly fixed it.
    I changed a lot of things but my setup now has the following which I think fixed.
    outgoing server  - p06-smtp.mail.me.com
    override default port checked - port now 587
    on more options button changed it to "use incoming server info".

  • Transfer emails from outlook 2011 for mac to Outlook 2010 for windows

    Hi,
    I want to transfer emails from outlook 2011 for mac to outlook 2010 for windows. 
    Outlook 2011 exports mails only in olm format and there is no option to import olm files in outlook 2010.
     I can drag and drop emails from outlook 2011 to a finder folder which saves emails as eml files. How can import eml files into outlook 2010. 
    Please help

    Hi, 
    Thank you for using
    Microsoft Office for IT Professionals Forums.
    Base on the research ,
    We can try the steps below to add the registry sub key. This will open all .eml files that are in the file system using Outlook, including *.eml attachments on messages in OE/WLM. Any replies will be sent
    using Outlook.
    ===========
    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.Type
    regedit in the Search field on the Start menu or press
    Windows Key+ R and enter it in the Run command.
    2.Navigate to
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Microsoft Internet Mail Message WLMail\shell\open\command
    Or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Microsoft Internet Mail Message\shell\open\command
    3. Change the command line (here its "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Live\Mail\wlmail.exe" /eml:%1)
    to the following line, exactly as shown below but correcting the path to Outlook.exe to match the path on your computer.
    "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\OUTLOOK.EXE" /eml "%1"
    Thanks for your understanding.
    Sincerely
    Rex Zhang

  • MS Outlook 2011 for Mac will no longer automatically send and receive email since upgrade to OS 10.9 Mavericks.  Does anyone know of a solution?

    I have been having trouble with Outlook 2011 for Mac since updating to OS 10.9 Marvericks.  I have tried updating the database and identity.  I can get email if a go to each account and try to download it.  But email will not come automatically and can I send and receive all accounts.  Does anyone have a solution?  I do not want to lose my email, contacts and information.

    I am also finding that searching in Mail for emails in this account is leading to false negative results. It's astonishing that I can search for an email I know is in the Inbox list yet not find it unless I scroll down to it manually and clicking it. Then it will show up in the results if I search again. I just did "rebuild" a day ago (have to do that every few days or so to get Outlook Exchange emails restored again anyway), so I doubt that this would fix the issue, but even if it did it's ridiculous... do I really have to abandon Mail and move to Microsoft Outlook on my mac to read my emails? Mail is currently FAILING to work for those of us who have to deal with Microsoft servers... which must be a huge # of customers, Apple.

  • Sent messages from secondary account are not saved in Outlook 2011 for Mac

    We are using a shared email account added in Outlook 2011 for Mac.  It's not the default account but we send from it often.
    Whenever sending from this secondary mailbox, the message is not saved in sent items folder under the secondary mailbox or the default mailbox.  There seems to be no record of the sent item anywhere.
    I verified the message is sent and received.
    All microsoft updates have been applied and we are using Exchange 2010.

    Hello,
    Please first log into OWA and check if the email are saved in the Sent Items folder.
    We can tick the option "Save copies of messages in Sent Items folder" in Outlook 2010 and Outlook 2013 to save a copy of sent message, please check if you get such option in Outlook for Mac.
    In addition, in Outlook for Windows, we can change a registry key to force Outlook to save sent emails in the default or secondary mailbox, but I'm not sure if Outlook 2011 has such trick. See:

  • Fetching of attached files delayed, minutes-hours in Outlook 2011 for Mac from Exchange online

    Hi,
    I have an annoying problem I would be grateful if someone could solve.
    I run Outlook 2011 for Mac which is synced towards Microsoft Exchange online. Everything works well except when there are attached files in incoming emails.  Sometimes it can take up to hours before an attached file is available (the email as such is
    available immediately), however luckily it is mostly done within 5-10 minutes. Meanwhile the notification bar switch between "Awaiting synchronisation for this folder" and "Fetching attached files...". There is no actual difference between
    larger and smaller files and there is also no problem sending emails with attached files, they are sent immediately.
    I have tested in different locations with good connections to rule out unstable internet connection without success.
    Thanks for any help with this issue!

  • Outlook 2011 for Mac: Occurrence with this index was previously deleted from the recurrence

    Client using Outlook 2011 (14.2.4) with Mac OS 10.8.2. 
    I've never seen this error before, and it keeps popping up (next to the classic yellow triangle with exclamation point -- I'd post screenshot, but forum isn't letting me.) The message doesn't seem to be related to any specific action.)
    Exact text is: Outlook 2011 for Mac: Occurrence with this index was previously deleted from the recurrence.
    Any assistance is very much appreciated. 

    Unfortunately this did not work for me. There is absolutely nothing in my Drafts folder to be deleted. I'm sure the problem is calendar-related but there is nothing to delete or fix. I ran the Database Utility and it didn't find anything wrong. So I'm stuck
    getting an alert "beep" every 8 minutes from Outlook.  
    EDIT: OK, so you have to look in "Outbox", not "Drafts". And the "Outbox" does not always appear in the sidebar. When mine finally did (not sure what made it show up, but it may have been me enabling logging), I was able to
    delete the offending message.

  • Import Outlook 2011 for MAC database from a security copy

    After many years using Outlook for Windows, I bought a MAC Book Pro and Outlook 2011 for MAC. I use it for mail, contacts, notes and calendar and yesterday I had a problem. Since then, when I click the Outlook icon what appear is the system completely void. Contacts, notes, schedules, mail folders, everything have disappeared. I have a security copy done on an external hard disk, where I find everything, but I don't know what must I do to recover the Outlook database. I would be very grateful for some help taking into account that I have minimal experience on iOS software.
    Thanks

    Hi Ryan,
    I suggest double check the permission configuration.
    And also check whether the reply button enabled.

  • Why don't private appointments synched from Outlook 2011 (for Mac) show up on my iPad2?

    I have an iPad2, and have upgraded to iOS5. I sync my mail/calendar from Outlook 2011 for Mac. Recently (after the upgrade to iOS5), I noticed that the appointments marked "private" in Outlook no longer sync to my iPad, though they do sync to my iPhone 4 (also running iOS5).
    Any suggestions?

    I am a doofus. All I needed to do was go into settings, click on keynote and turn iCloud on in keynote.

    I have enabled the sync services in outlook for mac 2011 and ticked calender, contacts and tasks and select the account to sync and the outlook folder to add new items to but still it does not sync anything.
    I went to the iStore technical support and the technicians were unable to help me they just told me that Apple has removed the functionality, to me it looked like they were clueless
