"The Connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable" when adding second Exchange account to Outlook 2013

I have a problem that I've found to be typical, just haven't found anything that describes my exact problem.
I'm having trouble adding a second Exchange 2010 server account to Outlook 2013 in one of the computers of the domain. Outlook 2013 will complain with "The Connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete
this action".
I've Googled and found many threads with the same error... however most of those seem to be either a problem with the server, or the Global Catalog in Active Directory, or the "connection method" (I've tried all found solutions to no avail).
This is not the case, since the first account is added with absolutely no problem. It can send and receive and I can delete the outlook profile and recreate it and it'll give no problems. I have this problem only when adding a second account.
This is a fresh Windows 8.1 install with an up-to-date Outlook 2013. I have other computers in the same domain and network, with the same setup (Win 8.1 + Outlook 2013) configured with two exchange accounts with no problem.
There are no connectivity problems, I can access that same account through OWA and in other computers on the network... the Global Catalog seems to be fine (shows two active DCs, which is correct).
I've tried deleting and recreating the outlook profiles, repairing the outlook installation, even deleting all outlook files in AppData and letting it recreate them, with no success.
Any hints of what could be going on?
Before I speak, I have something important to say.

Hi Javier,
Thank you for the update.
I have tested on my lab and get following result.
Lab: Exchange 2010, CAS Array (CAS01+CAS02), MBX01, DC
Type Server Field
Check name result
Changed Server Field
CAS01.domain.com
Yes
CASArray.domain.com
CASArray.domain.com
Yes
CASArray.domain.com
DC.domain.com
Yes
CASArray.domain.com
MBX01.domain.com
No
"The Connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable"
Based on my knowledge, the reason why inputing DC FQDN in the Server Field fixes this issue is that Outlook performs AD Lookup and finds the account configuration from AD, then back the CAS Array FQDN in the Server Field instead of DC FQDN.
Exchange 2010 is different from Exchange 2013, if you are using Exchange 2013, we need to input MailboxServerGUID.domain.com into Server Field.
If there is anything I’ve misunderstood, please don’t hesitate to let me know.

Can' add Exchange account to Outlook 2013

Hi,
We have an Exchange 2013 server which as far as I know is fully working - Outlook clients on the domain connect fine, OWA works fine and mobile devices work fine.
However I have a problem when trying to add an Exchange account to Outlook 2013 when this computer is on another domain (separate network, separate domain, separate company).
I assume Outlook is searching for an Exchange server which isn't there but how can I get around this?
Thanks

Hi,
Please try to alter the authentication method on the relevant CAS servers to Basic and test the issue. For details:

Cannot connect to an Exchange account in Outlook 2013 using "Microsoft Exchange Server or Compatible Service"

Dear All,
I cannot connect to my Exchange account in Outlook 2013 using "Microsoft Exchange Server or Compatible Service".
First I would like to present my network environment, I have 4 physical servers;
The first one is holding the Domain Controller 1, IP@: 192.168.1.10
The second server is holding the additional Domain Controller which it is DC2, IP@: 192.168.1.11
The third server is holding the Exchange 2013 Mailbox, IP@: 192.168.1.15
And the last server is holding the Exchange 2013 CAS-HT, IP@: 192.168.1.16
I am doing the steps below:
1-Creating a new profile in outlook and start configuring the exchange account by entering the IP address of the Exchange-CAS Server, 192.168.1.16
2-entering the account name: [email protected]
3-Go to "More Settings" > "Connection" > "Connect to Microsoft Exchange using HTTP" > and entering the "Exchange Proxy Settings"
4-type the exchange CAS Server URL, https://192.168.1.16
5-Check the "Connect using SSL Only"
6-Authentication Settings: "NTLM Authentication", and pressing Apply
7-When I press the "Check Name" button, a message occurred> "The action cannot be completed. The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action".
8-I go back to the "Exchange Proxy Settings" and I Uncheck the "Connect using SSL Only" and pressing Apply
9-i press the "Check Name" Button, a small window occurred to enter a Username and Password, so I enter the Administrator username and the administrator password and pressing "OK", but nothing is changed, I tried to enter my
username and password in the small window and I still got the same result.
I cannot verify the account name and I cannot complete the process.
I appreciate you kind assistance.

Hi,
To narrow down the cause, I’d like to recommend the following troubleshooting:
1. Try to login the test account through OWA.
2. Check the Autodiscover settings: get-clientaccessserver |fl autodiscoverserviceinternaluri
3. Check the result of directly accessing the following URL:
https://autodiscover.domain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml

Can't add multi exchange account on outlook 2010 with exchange 2013 Sp1

I did install exchange 2013 with DAG group successful, the exchange work fine now
Outlook can connect to exchange automatically and working fine
The problem appear when i need create the second exchange account by go to control panel/Mail add new profile and add new exchange profile
How can i solve the problem ?

This Problem in exchange generally appear when users mistakenly create the wrong account type or Outlook upgrades an older account profile.In these situations you need to remove that wrong account and create a New account .
When you have the wrong type of account configured in Outlook you can easily remove the account and create the correct type of account.
1 Go to Control Panel, search for the Mail. If you are using 64-bit Windows and 32-bit Outlook, it will be named as “Mail (32-bit)”
2 Double click on Mail (or Mail (32-bit)).
3 Click Email account button
4. Select the wrong account and click Remove. (If you only have one account listed in your profile,But you may need to create a New account first, set it as default then remove the wrong account.)
5. Click New, select Email Account for POP3 or IMAP accounts, or select other then the correct account type.
6. Fill in your preferred display name, email address and password on the Add New Account dialog.
Outlook will look for published account configuration for the domain and setup the account automatically.
In this event if your email provider does not publish autodiscover information, you’ll need to set up the account yourself. Check your mail providers support site for the proper configuration and then check the box to Manually configure the account at the bottom
of the Add New Account dialog.

Unable to configure multiple Exchange accounts in Outlook 2013

This is a complicated issue so I will try to describe it the best I can.
I have a client with two SBS servers for two different organizations in two different locations. Each server handles completely different domains. Let's call them A and B.
The issue is this...using Outlook 2010 or 2013 on clients at location B, I can configure Outlook for the users mailbox on server B just fine. Some of the users at location B also have mailboxes on server A. When I add a 2nd Exchange account for
the users mailbox on server A, things get weird.
Sometimes, when I start Outlook after adding the 2nd Exchange account, Outlook will show only one mailbox, but it is incorrect. The top level will show it is a mailbox on server B, but it contains email from server A. When this happens, email
actually transfers from one mailbox to the other. I have to close Outlook quickly before things get out of hand. About a year ago, I determined that if the user has the same username and password for their mailbox on server A and server B, this would
cause the problem. So I changed the users' username on server B and it seemed to work with Outlook 2010.
Now, a year later, we have a new user with Outlook 2013 with a mailbox on server A and server B, who works in location B. I setup Outlook 2013 with mailbox B and it's fine. I add a 2nd Exchange account for mailbox A to their Outlook Profile,
and when I launch Outlook, it shows both. BUT, the mailbox A has nothing in it, and the status shows "This folder has not yet updated. CONNECTED". Mailbox B shows "All folders up to date. Connected to Microsoft Exchange".
Also, existing email from mailbox A starts showing up in mailbox B. If I go into mail account settings, I get the "Outlook is using temporary mailbox" dialog, meaning something has moved. If I look at the two accounts, both look
to be using the same OST file, even though under data files, there are two OST files, one for each mailbox account. If I delete the 2nd Exchange account (A), Outlook works again for the single mailbox on server B.
I've tried configuring the accounts without cached mode, but that doesn't work either. Mailbox B had a delegate account (Full access permissions) to another account on server B, but I have tried removing that also, but no change.
I cannot figure out why I cannot have two Exchange accounts, one from each server (A and B) in Outlook 2013/2010 at the same time.
HELP!
Thank for any ideas. I hope I haven't made this too confusing. One last thing...when I add the 2nd Exchange mailbox, I authenticate with the username on server A with domain\username and their password. The authentication seems to be accepted
fine and without error. I have also tried configuring the 2nd account using "automatic" instead of configuring manually. Same problem.

OK, I have done some more testing as you suggested. I created yet another new profile with just mailbox A. When I start Outlook, I see the users mailbox, plus a mailbox that the user has been given Full Permissions to (a delegate?). There
is one more mailbox that this user has full permissions to, but it did not auto-add itself, so I added the mailbox through the account properties. Now, all three mailboxes at location A are in Outlook (users mailbox and 2 delegate mailboxes). In
Outlook, on the left, has at the top the users main mailbox, and then below it are two other "branches" for the delegate mailboxes. I did NOT use cached exchange mode, btw.
I quit Outlook and edited the profile, adding another exchange account for the users mailbox at location B. I did a "check-name" and authenticated OK.
I launched Outlook, and the same (wrong) thing happens. On the left pane of Outlook, at the top, it shows it is the users mailbox at location B (the main branch says Mailbox name -- location B), but all the folders and content are from mailbox at location
A. Outlook has mixed it up, and it is at this point that email starts moving between mailboxes, so I quit Outlook quickly. It did show the two delegate mailboxes from location A, but there were just three "branches", and nowhere is there
the real mailbox B.
Can it have anything to do with the fact that these accounts have delegates (or are given full manage permissions to other mailboxes on the server)??
UPDATE: I just determined something. When looking at the Outlook email accounts dialog, for each account it shows the default delivery location. For the first account (location A), it shows:
"Selected account delivers new messages to the following location: usersemail@locationA\Inbox".
When I add the users mailbox for location B, it shows:
"Selected account delivers new messages to the following location: usersemail@locationB\Inbox".
However, when I start Outlook, and see that things are wrong and quit, I go back into the accounts dialog, and BOTH accounts are set to deliver to the SAME location:
"Selected account delivers new messages to the following location: usersemail@locationA\Inbox".
So now, the 2nd exchange account has changed it's location to deliver to mailbox A instead of B.
Crazy stuff.

ICloud breaks Exchange account in Outlook 2013

Hi,
I installed iCloud on my work laptop hoping to get both my corporate exchange account and my iCloud account to appear in Outlook 2013. The iCloud account works fine, but with it installed I am no longer able to send emails from my exchange account. The emails just get stuck in the outbox. Once I remove iCloud it works again. I have tried a variety of settings in the Send/Receive group to no avail. Does anyone have an idea how I get them both to work together? All other aspects of iCloud coexists just fine. Not being able to send from my corporate account is a deal breaker.

Hi,
To narrow down the cause, I’d like to recommend the following troubleshooting:
1. Try to login the test account through OWA.
2. Check the Autodiscover settings: get-clientaccessserver |fl autodiscoverserviceinternaluri

Multiple exchange e-mail accounts in outlook 2013

Hello. I'm trying to set-up two exchange e-mail accounts in outlook 2013 (Exchange server is synchronized with Active Directory).
Once I add second account and restart outlook I get password prompt from each of the accounts. And it keeps prompting all the time and one of the accounts do not work. Could you please assist me on how to set-up those multiple exchange e-mail accounts correctly

Setup the second Exchange account in one profile would always keep prompting usernam/password. This is limitation of Outlook profile.
To work around this, I recommand that you may use the tool as below:

Outlook refuses to add another exchange account on the same computer on another Local User Account

So at home I have a family computer with some computer accounts.
at two of them, I installed Outlook 2013. On the first one, I added a existing Exchange account, and everything went well.
but when I tried adding another existing Exchange account (on the same domain) Outlook displayed this message about 'not being able to set up a secure connection'. both the accounts existed and are working.
Is this because of the secure mail port (465) was already occupied?
what do I have to do?
please help me!

Hi,
I understand that you setup one Exchange account on the first local account successfully, but failed to setup the second Exchange account on the second local account.
As for the question "Is this because of the secure mail port (465) was already occupied? " I don't think it's the cause, but anyway, we can temporarily remove the first Exchange account from the first local account, and then try to add
the second Exchange to the Second local account and see if the account can be configured successfully.
I'd also like to know whether these accounts are local administrators or standard users, are the different permissions making a difference?
If there's anything that I misunderstood, please feel free to let me know.

I can't create an email account in Outlook 2013 for my exchange server

Have tried many things on this issue.
I have a new tablet PC running Windows 8. I am able to connect to my Exchange Server account using Windows 8 Mail, no problem but when I have tried to set up an account for Outlook 2013 to connect to the same Exchange Server using exactly the same login
information I cannot get it to connect. I simply get the message that the Exchange Server is unavailable.
I've been able to connect a variety of other devices to the same Exchange Server account without any problem - iPhones, Windows Phone, iPads, etc, etc all without problem. It's just this device and Outlook 2013 seems to be the issue. From checking various
forums seems this is not an isolated issue but I've not been able to find a useful solution so far. Have deleted the user profiles and .ost files, switched off caching etc, all to no avail.
One key difference between the account information required by Windows Mail and Outlook is that in the Windows Mail system I am prompted to enter my domain information. I know this is critical from the information provided to me by our network administration
team but there is nowhere in the Outlook account setup process where I can enter my domain info.
Closest I've been able to get to success is to use the manual account creation process and select the Exchange ActiveSync option - this gets me to the point where I'm prompted for my username and password info but it fails at this step because I am connected
to a local domain (the domain account for the PC) and my user name and password are not accepted. There is nowhere in this login process that I can find where I can enter the correct domain info.
Any ideas on a solution would be very much appreciated - I use Outlook extensively in my work and whilst the Windows 8 Mail system is good, it doesn't have the level of functionality I need.
Many thanks
Wayne.

Have managed to solve this with your help Martina regarding using the domain\username combination.
Here's the solution in detail in case anyone else is having similar problems.
From control panels - select the User Accounts and Family Safety item, then the Mail (Microsoft Outlook 2013) item and then the Email Accounts option.
Select the Email tab and click 'New... button to create a new email account
Choose the standard Email account option in the following form. (Not the 'Manual' option'
Enter your Exchange account details - no alterations necessary here. just your standard details.
As the account verification proceeds you are prompted to again enter your username and password details. In this form, instead of using the top option with your username already populated, click the lower 'Other user' option and enter your domain\username
details. This changes the domain. Enter your password as usual.
I was prompted to do this twice - same each time. Enter domain\username in the username field and usual password
Account is then created.
Open Outlook to complete the process and synchronise data with Exchange.
Hope this is helpful to others - again, many thanks for your assistance Martina.

Disable Exchange Calendar in Outlook 2013

Is there any way that I can disable a calendar for an Exchange account in Outlook? The problem is that I use one Exchange calendar for all my appointments. I have two separate Exchange accounts though for email (personal and business). Periodically
when I create an appointment in Outlook, it creates the appointment in the wrong Exchange calendar so I'd like to disable that one.

Firstly, if you want your appointment goes to a specific calendar, you should select any of the folder under that Exchange account in Outlook navigation panel, then start creating your appointment. In this case, the appointment will be created in right Exchange
calendar.
Also, you can set a registry value to always force the use of the default account. To force using the default email account, regardless of which pst file you are viewing, browse to the following registry subkey in outlook 2013 and add a DWORD named NewItemsUseDefaultSendingAccount:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Outlook\Options\Mail
DWORD value: NewItemsUseDefaultSendingAccount
Value: 1

Second Exchange account mail stuck in outbox

Hello Everyone,
I have a strange issue. Nor me or my colleagues are able to wrap our heads around it.
We have an exchange account for our Value Added Services (VAS). I've added this mail account as a second exchange account to the outlook 2013 profile for the employees. However the problem is that all mails they sent are stuck in the outbox. And this happens
only for the VAS mailbox.
1 User however doesn't face this issue, when that user sends a mail it is directly sent to the person. That user is currently responsible for cleaning up the outbox.
The mail setup is as follows:
1. Personal Mailbox - Exchange
2. VAS Mailbox - Exchange
3. QA mailbox - Exchange
4. P&G mailbox - Second mailbox (read only access)
They all work fine except the VAS mailbox.
Other relevant information:
They connect to our RDS (SRV 2012) farm and start Outlook 2013 trough remoteapp.
Their PC is running W7
We are using Exchange 2010 with the latest updates.
Any clues/ideas as why this could be happening? And why only the VAS mailbox has that issue?
In my testing i once setup the same mailbox structure locally, and this setup worked.
Thanks in advance.
Kind Regards,
Niek

Hi,
I recommend you try to use OWA to check if there is the same issue.
Open another user's mailbox or a resource mailbox from Outlook Web App
You must have Full Access permission for the mailbox that you want to open to perform this procedure.
Sign in to Outlook Web App.
At the top of the Outlook Web App window, click the drop-down arrow next to your mailbox name, and then click the
Open Other Mailbox window.
Enter the name of the mailbox that you want to open, and then click Open.
Thanks.

I cannot add an exchange email onto my iPhone 4!

I cannot add an exchange email onto my iPhone 4, it can be added onto a Blackberry with the same information. I have tried using the IP address instead of the server name but it still telling me that its unable to verify the account information. Please does anyone have any ideas on how to work around this?

There are several things to check with Exchange on your iPhone, and some depend on your exchange server details. It would be difficult for anyone to help you without any such specific information (i.e. an idea of the details you entered into your blackberry - though no need to give us exact details of your account).
Details should be the same as you use for Outlook Web Access for example.
In my case for example I don't need the exchange. /exchange or /webmail added to it, so just the address / IP address of the server works OK.
Have you checked the Domain is correct?
And SSL switched on or off make a difference?
