When I try to set a default for viewing all folders using the view options, it fails to apply this view to all folders. What am I doing wrong?

I open the 'view options', select the mode of viewing I want, click the 'always open in' and push the use as defaults button... this, by all accounts, should work to apply this mode of viewing to ALL my folders and subfolders... yet it does not.

I've had to work on this a little before it "stuck" to my preference; it appears that if you open a folder within a folder and set the option, it will apply to that and any within that, but not up a level. So you need to make sure you have it set at the top folder level and you have it set like this:
Also, if you have a folder in the dock, you will need to either control click it or - in my case I want column view - you need to Command click the folder and it'll open in column view. I've not liked this "feature" since it was changed in Snow Leopard; previously, you could just click on the folder and it would open the way you had it set.

Creating local auto archive setting by script Outlook 2010

How could I enable Autoarchive feature and setup it by script for creating local pst file

Ideally I would love to have on script, no policy or exchange admin features and other staff, only script like vbs or something.

Hi,
Thanks for your post. I understand that you are looking for a scripted solution for auto archive settings in Outlook.
However, this forum focuses on questions and feedback for Microsoft Office client. I would suggest you to post in the forum of

Outlook status of "All folders are up to date" is a lie.

I am using Microsoft Outlook 2010 in Cached Exchange Mode. I often find that the Outlook status bar reports both "All folders are up to date" and "Connected to Microsoft Exchange." With these two messages in the status bar, I expect the Exchange server
to have the same content as the Outlook client. Frequently, I find that some of the last actions I performed in Outlook before shutdown had not been propagated to the server. These include operations I performed in the Inbox or updates I made to notes on Task
items. This is a severe usability issue since I cannot find a way to ensure that the work I have done on the client has actually been saved. I am therefore unsure of when I can shutdown without worrying that data will not be available to me on another
client.

Hi,
Thank you for using
Microsoft Office for IT Professionals Forums.
From your description, it sounds like an issue of Outlook cache file. Please try the following steps to create a new cache file:
Create a new .ost file.
1.
Close Outlook.
2.
Locate to:
%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook
3.
Right-click the .ost file, and then click
Rename. Rename the file by using a different file name extension, such as an .old file name extension instead of the .ost file name extension.
4.
Start Outlook
If it doesn’t work, please try the OWA(Outlook Web Access).
If the issue persist, it might be related to host end. You can post a new thread in Exchange forums:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/category/exchangeserver/
Please take your time to try the suggestions and let me know the results at your earliest convenience. If anything is unclear or if there is anything
I can do for you, please feel free to let me know.

Outlook 2010 duplicates mail with setting Leave mail on sever, Delete After n days and pressing Send/Receive All folders

The setting Leave mail on the server and Delete after n days and Pressing Send/Receive all folders causes outlook 2010 to duplicate all mails of the last n days over and over again.
If I leave outlook 2010 open this problem does not occur, mail will be retreived without a problem. If I leave Outlook 2010 open for a long time and then press Send/Receive all folders it does work ok. If I restart Outlook 2010 and then press Send/Receive
all folders the problem occurs.
The pst file is a new one. OTher mail accounts that do have Leave mail on the server but not Remove after n days do not have the duplicating behaviour.
I have manually removed 6400 duplicate mails, if Microsoft does not solve this urgent problem soon I need to remove Office 2010 from my computer and go back to Office 2007, Office 2007 worked fine for me.
Is there a solution fir this problem, or a free tool to remove all duplicates?

Dear Pieter,
I suggest creating a new Outlook profile, and create the problematic account in the new profile, to see if the problem occurs.
Here are the detailed steps on how to create a new profile to test this issue
==============
1.    Exit
Outlook.
2.    Go to
Start > Control Panel, click or double-click
Mail.
Mail appears in different Control Panel locations depending upon the version of the Microsoft Windows operating system, Control Panel view selected,
and whether a 32- or 64-bit operating system or version of Outlook is installed.
The easiest way to locate
Mail is to open Control Panel in Windows, and then in the
Search box at the top of window, type Mail. In
Control Panel for Windows XP, type Mail in the
Address box.
Note    The Mail icon appears after Outlook starts for the first time.
The title bar of the Mail Setup dialog box contains the name of the current profile. To select a different existing profile, click Show Profiles, select
the profile name, and then click Properties.
3.    Click
Show Profiles. Choose Prompt for a profile to be used.
4.    Click
Add.
5.    Type a name for the profile, and then click
OK. Please also follow the onscreen instructions to create the email account in this profile.
6.    Start
Outlook, and choose this new profile.
If this problem does not occur in the new Outlook profile, the old Outlook is corrupted. We can delete that and use a new Outlook profile.
Please take your time to try the suggestions and let me know the results at your earliest convenience. If anything is unclear or if there is anything
I can do for you, please feel free to let me know.
Best Regards,

Retention Policy - Archive All folders to archive-maibox (including inbox and send items)

Hello,
with exchange 2010 we have a retention policy to archive all mail older than 2 years to the archive-maiblox using the retention policy.
The policy is having the setting "all other folders", so this isn`t working for the folder "inbox" "send items" etc.
What can i change to have ALL folders moved to the archive-mailbox?
Thx

Hi,
Did you means that you select "All other folders in the mailbox" as a tag type? Is right?
If so, it will not work for the default folders (such as Inbox and Send Items..).
Please refer to the following thread:
Exchange 2010: Retention Policy Tag
Type- All other folders in the mailbox

Problem "archive name already exists" Outlook 2007

Dear All,
I’m writing to you because I really need help with solving the problem with my MS Outlook 2007 with SP3.
I’m using windows 7 64 bit. I’m using Exchange account.
The problem is when my mailbox on exchange is almost full so I’m making manual autoarchive.
From a few months I have problem with that matter because I have information “archive name already exists”.
I can see the exact path to the archive folder.
I can't create archive with the same name for example archive.pst, all the time during new archivisation I have to change the name of the archive file like: archive1, archive2, archive3….. Now in my mailbox I have something like
5 archivisation folders :(
Can You help me please with that?
Thank You in advance!

Need to know how to remove ALL previous Outlook settings in Registry and file locations (cross posted)

Problem: I cannot get a newly installed Outlook 2013 to connect to the [online Office 365] server with old [non-domain] logon profile. That is my issue, and what I'd like to fix. (There's some services and settings on the old profile
that cannot be easily duplicated. Also, I'm just enough annoyed by this to ask for suggestions.)
Background: I upgraded an existing Office 2007 install of several years back to Office 2013 on an continuously used [non-domain] user profile (I needed connections to several Exchange accounts at various domains I remotely admin
and was tired of logging on through OWA, so it was time to upgrade). Up to Sunday last, I have never had issues with Outlook and Office 365 connections to that account; upgrading Office 2013 "killed" my outlook.office365.com connection to emails.
Testing: I created a new [non-domain] logon profile, and Outlook 2013 connects to my outlook.office365.com account just fine with the new logon profile. To repeat:
there were NO connectivity issues in connecting to my Office 365 account in the
new [test] logon profile with Outlook 2013, and using Outlook 2013 on the new [non-domain] profile.
The problem is profile specific, to an older existing profile (I'd like to use).
Just FYI: my [vanity] domain tests just fine with the Exchange 365 online tools. Office 365 works. OWA works. Outlook 2013 works (in the new logon profile). Mobile devices work.
There are no major problems with the domain name in MXToolbox, or Microsoft Remote Connectivity Tester. Both Windows and Office are fully patched on my workstation. There's no malware.
The problem is something in my older logon profile. Something somewhere locally to that logon and/or Outlook-specific profile is keeping it from logging into the [Office 365] mail server. I just get the typical "cannot connect to
the server" error.
What's Needed: So what I need is a link to a webpage (or pages) that details ALL [existing] Outlook/Exchange settings that are profile specific ...so I can
manually remove them from the Registry, from the drive, etc.
...something on the order of "...remove all profiles under
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem" and "...delete all files in
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook" (neither of which fixed the issue, whatever the real issue may be ...but that's all I found so far that seemed pertinent). Anyways, "stuff"
like that.
Alternatively, if someone knows what Registry keys, other settings, etc., I can export/import from the test logon profile to my "real" logon profile(s), that would be worth a shot, and greatly appreciated.
Or maybe just some google search suggestions that might find the above links (listing error message contents hasn't been useful: too many hits).
Me: I'm a sys admin with over 30 years experience. I'm not looking for suggestions on how to set up an Exchange account, or an Office 365 account, or to setup a new mail profile or logon profile (or to remove either of those), or to add
a new email account (manually or with auto-discover), or to remove an old account. None of that applies and/or has worked in this case.
Thanks in advance for your interest. I really need a knowledgeable wizard, since I'm looking for a solution to a complex issue. My own googling and troubleshooting has just turned up the usual noob' stuff. At this point, I'm at a loss. The well is dry.
Update:
This question is cross-posted from the general "answers" forum (at the suggestion of a moderator).
Update: I also came across
this page of "advanced" Outlook settings (and it hasn't helped so far, either).

I too, for over 30 days have been trying to find an answer as my situation is as similar as it gets. I too have tried all and everything as you have.
How I wish there would have been an answer to your question. It would have answered mine as well.
Seems typical to microsoft "help" unless it is the usual noob response and/or "more clarification" (I with no tech degree understood exactly what you refer to) the only response is well, just no response......

Sort all folders in the same way

I understand how I can sort messages in a folder, but I would like to apply this selection to all my many many folders at once - and ideally also have it as the default for the future.
(I always use the latest tb version in a linux environment)

I think an add-on might work for setting a default for new folders, and also for existing folders if you rebuild their index files (.msf) by using Repair Folder in the folder Properties (context menu), or deleting the .msf files en masse.

How can I set a customized view in finder set as standard for ALL folders?

As I have a large number of folders, I need a specific view in finder: symbol view, sort by program and name. I tried to use this settings as standard for ALL folders, but using the 'set as standard' button does only work for the folder I am in, but not for ALL folders. I even tried to use this settings on the hard disk level in finder, but what ever I tried, it never applies to all folders. The problem occurs on each of my devices and on Yosemite OS 10.10.1. as well as Mavericks 10.9.5. Any ideas on how I can make the 'standard' work on all folders?

As Vinod says, unique key validator would be fine.
However, In Gabriel's blog:
Performing a unique key validation for an attribute that is declared to be unique in the database requires a round trip to the database. This is quite expensive and there is a fast and easy way to work around it.Is false on several fronts:
1). it's not expensive - it's actually cheaper than the alternative
2). Unique key validator can require many trips to the DB to validate - it must check all other rows in the EO to ensure there is no duplicate, and all of those rows must be fetched into the middle tier to do the validation: this is expensive.
The "cheapest" way to do this: unique constraint in the DB

Setting a default folder view for all folders in Windows 7

How do you set up a default folder view of "List" for ALL the folders in Windows 7 including the optical drive?
Artoo

I just installed windows 7. Are you seriously telling me that i now have all folders with mp3s in them AUTOMAGICALLY (THANKS FOR THE HANDY HELPING HAND THERE MICROSOFT!!!) set to some designers whim of what an mp3 folder "SHOULD" look like?
Well i was going to write a big rant, and indeed did, but then i was doing some more research and it seems like i just made everyones day and solved the problem (partially). Or well THIS guy did:
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/16694/customize-the-five-windows-folder-templates/
After you’ve clicked OK, visit some of the other folders in your file system. You should see that most have taken on these new settings.
What we’ve just done, in effect, is we have customized the General Items template. This is one of five templates that Windows Explorer uses to display folder contents. The five templates are called (in Windows 7):
General Items
Documents
Pictures
Music
Videos
When a folder is opened, Windows Explorer examines the contents to see if it can automatically determine which folder template to use to display the folder contents. If it is not obvious that the folder contents falls into any of the last four templates,
then Windows Explorer chooses the General Items template. That’s why most of the folders in your file system are shown using the General Items
template.
Changing the Other Four Templates
If you want to adjust the other four templates, the process is very similar to what we’ve just done. If you wanted to change the “Music” template, for example, the steps would be as follows:
Select a folder that contains music items
Apply the existing Music template to the folder (even if it doesn’t look like you want it to)
Customize the folder to your personal preferences
Apply the new template to all “Music” folders
A fifth step would be: When you open a folder that contains music items but is not automatically displayed using the Music template, you manually select the Music template for that folder.
Anyways, sorry that explanation doesnt do it justice. I have spent waaay too much time trying to figure this out already. Also that link doesnt say how to 1) copy templates (are they file or registry based?, didnt do research) 2) if you can distable templates
or the automatic re-templating of folders.
THAT is what i want to know! as it is much more maintance then its actually worth...
but once i had set 5 default types to, the exact same thing... it now doesnt matter if it automagically switches it. SUCK IT MS AUTOTUNE!!!
Its bloody hard to frame this question too. What can you say about this? "folder changes to mp3" "customize folder types windows 7" "windows 7 folder changes to mp3" "dont automatically change folders to mp3" "how
to change mp3 details column for good" "automatically change column order win 7 mp3"
The search that actually solved it:
"do not apply default template to mp3 windows 7"
good luck, this worked for me!
EDIT: also i just noticed that neonr already answered this above. i just didnt read it carefully enough. anyways i guess i will leave this and mark his as answer.

Online Archive only visible in Outlook 2010 after OWA logon

Dear.
We implemented Exchange 2010 native archiving. We created our own retention policies, applied them to the mailboxes and archiving started successfully exactly as we want it.
We’re using Outlook 2010 clients with both: cached and non-cached mode. The strange thing is that for the online archive to be visible in outlook, the user needs to logon to OWA
first and only once. Afterwards, online archive stills visible in Outlook 2010.
Is there any other way to make the online archive visible without forcing the user to do a one-time logon to OWA?
Thanks for the feedback.
Regards.

"number of items in all folders" setting keeps changing

Hello
I have the problem, that a customer wants to see the number of mails in an outlook folder (exchange). When I set the option "number of items in all folders" it works - but only as long, as Outlook is running...
As soon as I close Outlook, it changes back to the number of unread items...
How can i permanently set this option to "number of items in all folders"?
Kind regards,
Eddie

Hi,
By default, the "Show total number of items" setting should persists after restarting Outlook. Moreover, the setting will also be kept when you change to another computer.
Please try to create a new mail profile in Control Panel and reconfigure your Exchange account to troubleshoot the issue. For your reference:

All folders - view permissions

I'm trying to grant users the minimum permissions they need to work with their reports. Granting Full Control permission on the folder containing their reports doesn't seem to work, because without View on the All Folders list, they can't even see the folder to access the reports. However, if I grant View on All Folders, they have access to all the folders until I go through and explicitly remove them. Am I missing something, or is this the way it's supposed to work?
Thanks.
Edit: Oh, I see -- I was misreading the "inherit from parent" checkboxes. If I turn those off, they only apply to the folder I'm setting them for, which is the behavior I wanted. Thanks anyway!
Edited by: Garrett Fitzgerald on Apr 20, 2009 1:22 PM

No, that's not right. Damn. Sorry. What am I doing wrong?
Edit: Ok, got it that time. I wasn't telling it to only apply "View" to the current object.

Can I set all folders to the same column with in Finder list view?

I set Finder to display 4 columns in list view: Name, Date Modified, Size, Kind. Is there a way to apply the width of those columns to all folders? Column width is not affected by the option "use as defaults" in the view options.

I've just seen that somebody else asked the same question lately:

There seems to be no way to do what I want to do.
