I have an iMac running Yosemite 10.10.1 & Outlook 2011 for Mac. For a while, sent emails went to a sent folder on the iMac so I have a collection of sent emails there. How can I move them to a sent box on my server so I can see them on other devices?

I have an iMac 3.2 GHz Intel Core i5 with 16 GB memory and 1.12 TB storage running Yosemite 10.10.1 & Outlook 2011 for Mac. For a while, sent emails went to a sent folder on the iMac so I have a collection of sent emails there. I have attempted to move those sent emails from the iMac to my email server (IMAP), but without success. Is there a way to move them to a sent box on my server so I can see them on other devices? Many thanks for any help you can provide.

Go to: Apple > System Preferences > Universal Access and in the Seeing tab make sure that the Display Enhance contrast: is set to Normal.
Alternatly, try holding the ⌃⌥⌘ (control command alt) keys and then pressing the , (comma) key a few times.

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:

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".

Applescript to choose folders to save sent messages in Outlook 2011 for MAC

I want to create a rule to apply to messages as they are sent that gives me a dialog box in which to choose what folder I want to save the copy of the sent message (instead of the regular default of the Sent Items folder).
I just moved from a PC to a MAC and I miss this feature on Outlook 2011 for the MAC as I like to keep my replies/new messages sent in the same folders by subject as I leave received messages.
I've looked everywhere for an AppleScript I could use as part of a rule that applies to messages as they are sent and brings up a dialog box to chose the folder in which to save the sent message.
Anybody able to help here? It would be much appreciated!

Hi ZRANY,
First, you must be aware that “Mail does not apply rules to sent messages - if you want to organize your sent messages in mailboxes together with your received messages, you have to manually select all messages in your "Sent" mailbox and choose "Apply Rules to Selection" from the menu.” ([Mail Scripts 2.10.2|http://homepage.mac.com/aamann/Mail_Scripts.html]).
That being said, maybe the following very simple script could act as a starting point:
*using terms from application "Mail"*
*on perform mail action with messages theMessages*
*tell application "Mail"*
*repeat with eachMessage in theMessages*
*set theSubject to subject of eachMessage*
*choose from list (get name of mailboxes) with title "My mailboxes" with prompt "Subject: " & theSubject & return & return & "Select a mailbox where to copy this message."*
*duplicate eachMessage to mailbox 1 whose name is (item 1 of result) as text*
*end repeat*
*end tell*
*end perform mail action with messages*
*end using terms from*
Hope it can help.

I can't import Microsoft Ofice X Entourage into Outlook 2011 for Mac

I'm trying to import tasks from Microsoft Office X for Mac Entourage into Microsoft Office fo Mac 2011 Outlook and I'm failing miserably. It seems like Outlook only wants to import from Entourage 2004, Entourage 2008, or an Entourage archive. Entourage X doesn't seem to be able to archive?

You may have to do it the hard way. Launch Entourage X (which of course requires booting into something other than Lion). For each folder you've created for your Inbox, create a folder on the desktop by the same name.
Click on the folders one at a time in Entourage. Highlight any email and then press Command+A to select all of them. Drag the emails out of Entourage to the folder by the same name on the desktop. Repeat for each email folder you have. Next, export your contacts and save that to the desktop.
Move or copy all of the data from the desktop to someplace you can get at it from Lion
Restart in Lion and launch Outlook. Create Inbox folders that match the names of the folders you created on your desktop. Drag the contents of each folder into the appropriate email folder in Outlook. Import your contacts.

HT1296 How can i sync my outlook 2011 for mac with Calendar 6.0 ?

Hi
i had problems with sync Outlook Mac 2011 with iphone, it start duplicate events... after many many tries, finally i sync contacts, but cant sync Calendar... my Calendar Mac is empty and my Outlook have few events... and after sync with itumes Contacts Allright, but calendar still empty...
Need help... its my 2nd day of no work... and many many tries!
Thanks

You can select to sync you contacts and calendar with Outlook on the Info tab of your iTune sync settings.
If this is your first sync you will get a merge or replace prompt for calendars and contacts as long as there is at least one contact and one calendar event in Outlook. If this is not your first sync you will need to reset your sync history to generate a merge or replace prompt (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1692). If you don't, the calendar and contacts on your phone will be replaced with those in Outlook.
Email is not synced. To get your email on your phone, set up the your email account in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account.

Outlook 2011 for MAC vs Public Folder & Read Only

Hi.
We have MAC OS 10.5.8
We use Outlook for MAC 2011. Use Public Forders, open the file XLSX, but it mode "read only".
Users can not edit these files.
Files are shared, so save them from himself locally and copied at the public Folders - does not fit.
How to enable editing?
noticed when opening the file it is placed in the directory:
/Users/username/Library/Caches/TemporaryItems/Outlook Temp
I did chmod 766 for directory.
But files still have rights 644.
I see two solutions:
configure Outlook 2011 to allow edit documents. But I can not find where it is configured...
Or give the right directory that you could edit the files. But I do not know how...
Thank you.

Can u move text messages to a folder?

i have a iphone 4, is there any way to keep or save text messages u get or to put them into a new folder on your phone?
also when i search on my phone for texts by certain people is there a way to delete all the results/texts in one go?

The answer to your first question - there are apps that will allow you to extract your texts and save them. Try a google as there are many different ones both free and paid that you might want to peruse. A lot of people will offer up opinions on which is best but there are many different choices.
You can delete an entire conversation by right swiping on the person in Messages then hitting Delete.
