A problem with Win 7 Pro, Outlook Web Access based on Exchange Server 2003, and two different domains

Dear Microsoft Support,
As mentioned in the title,
I have two domains. One is Domain A at HQ. The other one is Domain A at branch office. A laptop having Win 7 Pro OS is a client of Domain A. The Domain A has Exchange Server 2003. Users of Domain B get connected to Exchange Server for email services. In
all clients of the Domain B, IP address of the email server added in C:\Windows\System 32\drivers\etc\host file.
Whereas in the clients of Domain A it was not done, because all the servers including the email server belong to the Domain A.
Now, a user with Domain A's client (it is a laptop) came to Branch office and wanted to access the Outlook (using Outlook Web Access). since there is no IP address added in the Host file of the laptop, connectivity to email is not possible. When I try to
add the IP address, I was not able to do so due to Domain A's security reasons.
So, let me know, is there a way out to add the IP address in the host file of the Domain A's client.
Thanks in advance.
Ravi Sekhar Modukuru

I would suggest adding the mailserver address in Domain B's DNS. Would that be possible?
I agree. The correct solution in this case (since it appears you already have a two-way Domain Trust in place) is to properly configure DNS in Domain 'B' to be a secondary of Domain 'A' and completely eliminate the need to maintain the HOSTS file.

Problems with Microsoft Office Outlook Web Access and any web browser

My university e-mail goes through Microsoft Office Outlook and I access it through the Web Access.
I have tried with 3 browsers (Chromium, Firefox and Gnome's Web, and with all of them I am getting the same problems.
Basically, once I log in, the css seems to be screwed sometimes (not always). I click in a e-mail to read it, and it does nothing (not always), I write an e-mail, click send, and it gives me a white screen error (not always), and then it is not even saved as draft.
I have this errors like 70% of the time, or more, which means that every time I want just to read an e-mail, I spend 5 minutes reloading the website, singing out, clearing cookies,... until eventually all seems to load correctly.
No idea how I can fix this, or how I can get this to work.
thank you!

The light version is set by default, and I cannot choose the non-light.
I assume it makes some kind of "webbrower check id", and mine sends whatever linux like id, which the server doesn't recognize, and it screwes me

Solution to problems loging in to Outlook Web Access (solution here)

Hey all, i had to share. From what I've read a lot of people, including me are having problems loging into their Outlook Web Access pages. Just like many, mine would connect, ask for my login/pass and then just sit there trying to load the page. Here's the solution:
Instead of going to: email.companyname.com/exchange
point iPhone Safari to: email.companyname.com/oma
I think that's a cell phone, low bandwith/txt only version, which still lets you access all the info that the usual OWA lets you access.
But the extra tip is, that if after going to the "oma" site, you point Safari to the "/exchange" site--for some reason it will work.
Hope this helps everyone.

We found this was the solution as well. Its strange but it works.
Once you get logged into OMA (text only version) then it goes into OWA (graphical version) without any problems.
Great find.

Hi,
create an attribute(say ca_fileupload) of type XSTRING under context and bind that attribute with the data property.
For binding the attribute just Click on the element file_up , there you can see data property,click on that and you can see all the nodes and attributes you have created and there click on the attribute(ca_fileupload).

Problems with Macbook Pro, Outlook sending mail, Comcast ISP

I have read several threads, but don't have a solution that works for me as of yet. I am new to the Apple community, and have a Macbook Pro using OS-X and Mavericks updates. I also use Outlook for the MAC, but this problem occurs with Apple Mail as well. I use Comcast as my home ISP. I can send and receive email while at work with no problems. At home, I can receive with no difficulty but cannot send. My work email is a POP account. I have tried overriding the outgoing server (default port 25) with ports 465 and 587, with SSL set and not set, yet I continue to get authorization or server not identified errors. I can sign in to the same webmail account through Safari with no issues on the same computer and using the same ISP, but I cannot find a way to configure either Apple mail or Outlook to send!
I've been to the Apple Genius bar and on one occasion they were able to send email, but when I got home to my Comcast ISP, that ceased working. Everything still is perfect at work, but nowhere else. Any other information needed so that I can get some help?

when I got home to my Comcast ISP, that ceased working.
If you have not already done so, call Comcast tech support and/or post in their "Mac" forums. You need to confirm that the problem is not on their end. If you call, ask to speak w/someone in tier 3 tech support for Macs.

Problem with Macbook Pro early 2011, webcam not working in any apps and windows 7 or 8 on bootcamp, keyboard backlight not working?

Hi Guys
I recently bought a second hand early 2011 Macbook Pro 15 inch and are having 2 problems. The first is that none of the apps detects my webcam at all, the second is, i have Windows 8 installed on bootcamp but are unable to get the keyboard backlight to work in 7 or 8. The backlight works perfect in os x 10.8.5 though. I need a little bit of help guys.....

Go to Apple Menu / About This Mac. Click on More Info ... next on System Report. In the left hand column, under Hardware, select USB. The right side will show the USB Device Tree. Look through that and check for "Built-in iSight". That is your camera. If it is not listed the camera is not working.
For backlighting, try this: go to System Preferences / Keyboard. Uncheck "Adjust keyboard lighting in low light".

Safari 5.0 problems attaching document in email (Outlook web access)

We have Windows Server 2008, and Exchange 2010 (since January).
I recently upgraded to Safari 5.0 on Mac, and when I try to attach a file to an email in Outlook Web access (to our Exchange server), it freezes Safari 5.0.
This does not occur in Safari 4.x (I tried it on a computer not upgraded to Safari 5).
Safari 5.0 in Windows won't freeze, but it doesn't let me attach the file either (the interface to attaching the file is bugged, does not completely display once a file is selected).
I am NOT using Yahoo, and don't have the browser plugin that has been reported as the problem for that similar issue.

HI,
From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Security tab. Click: Show Cookies
Delete all Outlook/Microsoft cookies. Relaunch Safari and try attaching a file.
If that doesn't help, go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari and move the "cache.db" file to the Trash.
Note. ~ (Tilde) character represents your Home Folder.
Relaunch Safari and try again. If that didn't help ...
Go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop.
Relaunch Safari and see if that makes a difference. If not, move the .plist file back to the Preferences folder. If Safari functions as it should, move that .plist file to the Trash.
And if you haven't repaired permissions after updating Safari, it would be beneficial to do so.
Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

BlackBerry Internet Service with Microsoft Outlook Web Access account

I need to switch my 8820 to a new work account. They use Outlook Exchange 2003, but do not support BES. I have access via both regular desktop Outlook and also Outlook Web Access (from a different server). I read the procedure to use BIS in KnowledgeBase KB03133. After entering my email address and password, I get a message that it was successfully set up. But, I get no e-mail messages delivered. When I check the settings, it looks like it is not using the correct server for Web Access. However, I can find no way to manually enter it - I don't get the error message described in Step 5 where I can pick "I will provide the settings." I try to set up via computer but I get a message that my BIS cannot be accessed via HTML and need to set up on my BB.
Any suggestions? Would it work with a newer phone running a newer OS? Do I need to check with AT&T if it supports Outlook Web Access? Thanks in advance.

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
Lot's of possible variables...here a several other KBs to try:
KB03133How to integrate a Microsoft Outlook Web Access email address with a BlackBerry Internet Service account
KB18567BlackBerry Internet Service cannot connect to a Microsoft Outlook Web Access account using Microsoft Exchange 2007 or Microsoft Exchange 2010
KB15173Locate the mailbox name for a Microsoft Outlook Web Access 2007 email account
KB04804Error message appears when attempting to integrate a Microsoft Outlook Web Access 2010 account
KB02858Unable to integrate a Microsoft Outlook Web Access email address with a BlackBerry Internet Service account
The trick to getting to the manual settings screen is to provide your valid email address, but an incorrect password...then, it will allow you to manually enter the settings.
Good luck!

Hi there!
OWA configuration is very tricky...I know that I was never able to configure mine via my device interface to BIS. Only by using a PC/browser to my carriers BIS site was I successful. Here is the list of carrier BIS sites:

And here is the KB with specific OWA instructions -- follow them very very carefully:

Anybody using MBA OSX able to use "Notes" to Sync with the notes located on a exchange server 2003 pls?

My company is using an Exchange Server 2003 and Im using both an Iphone 5s and a MBA OSX.
All Exchange features are seamless on Iphone (mail, contacts, alendar AND NOTES)
On my laptop MBA:
- I used to use Outlook for mAc in which the notes were working but I had to go away from this (issue rebuilding too often and incompatibility with Wrikes etc.)
- so I now use Mail, Ical, Contacts and ... I wish Notes! - but I cant get Notes to pick up the exchange server notes ... no error message just nothing happens (yes the account exchange is set up for all features and Notes is checked) ... Im puzzled - Am I alone experiencing this please?
Thanks community!
Seb

correction: It's SBS 2011 running a strip down version of exchange 2010 ... and my MacBook Air Notes Application wont sync the notes with exchange ... ;-(((

Safari 4.0.3 problems with MS Outlook Web Access

I am constantly prompted for my password in MS Outlook Web Access since I upgraded to 4.0.3. This was a minimal problem previously; each time I logged in I would have to enter my password a few times and then be done with it. Now, almost any time I click on ANYTHING I am prompted for my password. Checking the box for 'Remember this password in my keychain' has never had any affect. I'm rather computer illiterate, but I'm willing to try any suggestions! Thanks!

I have a feeling it's a problem with Apple's javascript. I've also posted a thread here showing that it doesn't work properly with javascript if multiple tabs are open.
This wouldn't be a "fix"... but it might be worth a try to close all other tabs and see if it works when only one tab is open & then try it again with multiple tabs open and see if that breaks it.
At least then we'll know we've got a pattern here similar to my issue. I have a feeling the only way this'll get fixed is if Apple gets a head's up and fixes it themselves in Safari.

Outlook Web Access is currently unavailable. If the problem continues, contact technical support for your organization and tell them the following: No Client Access servers of the appropriate version can be accessed from the Internet

We installed a new Exchange 2007 CAS on Windows 2008R2. Got rid of old CAS on Exchange 2007. Now seeing this error. Does anyone have an idea??

Hi,
If the issue persists, I recommend you install Exchange 2007 SP3 RU7 and check the result. Also, ensure that Exchange 2010 SP2 RU1 or later version is installed. Old Exchange version may lead to the CAS-to-CAS proxy incompatibility.
What's more, here are some helpful blogs for your reference.

MS Exchange portlet with Outlook Web Access

While testing the MS Exchange 5.5 portlets, I've run into a problem where it does not create a MAPI session if you are not trying to access a local exchange server. In other words, how do I modify the asp code so the portlet will work if you are accessing Outlook Web Access?
If Outlook Web Access is on a different domain than the asp's in the MSEXCHANGE55.zip portlet package, what else needs to be modified?

The problem is a bit different than the post you referenced.
Although exchange and owa existing on the server with the Exchange asp's from Oracle, the problem of authentication still exists (the asp code needs to be modified in order to fix it).
For example --
The domain of Oracle portal and the windows 2000 server that's the web provider for the portlet is somehost.oracle.com.
The email server that has OWA installed (the one that has the email we want to view) is on someotherhost.ibm.com.
When try to test the inbox.asp by trying
https://somehost.oracle.com/exchange_portlet/inbox.asp?owapath=https://someotherhost.ibm.com/exchange
the session with the exchange server via OWA is not accomplished.
What needs to be changed in the code so the asp's can reside on a server that's not in the same domain as the OWA server?

Does it have to be an applet?
If you want the same behaviour as in the code with traffic lights, change
class MortgageApplet extends JApplet implements ActionListener {
to
class MortgageApplet extends JFrame implements ActionListener {
and change
public void init() {
to
public MortgageApplet() {
