Cannot Delete a contact in Outlook Shared Contact List

I have a user who has a Shared Contact List in Outlook 2010.
He is added as Publishing Editor to the list. Whenever he tries to delete a contact from the list after the sync the contacts appears again.
These are the sync logs found in the sync folder:
18:06:11 Synchronizer Version 14.0.7108
18:06:11 Synchronizing Mailbox 'xyz'
18:06:11 Synchronizing local changes in folder 'abc - Clients'
18:06:12 Uploading to server '[email protected]'
18:06:16 Error synchronizing message 'abc Clients'

18:06:16 Downloading from server '[email protected]'
18:06:17 1 item(s) added to offline folder
18:06:17 Done
So basically as owner of the contact list he is unable to delete the contact.
Please help!!

Hi Top,
Please performing the deleting action as Administrator for testing if it is convenient.
If we can do this via Administrator, it should be an permission issue. Please double check whether we modified the owner's permission.
According to the log said, I found a point "There is not enough memory available to perform the operation."
Can we add a contact via Owner?
Found a KB for your reference:
Error message when you try to add an Active Directory user account as a contact in Outlook: "There is not enough memory to perform the operation"

Outlook Shared Contacts Sync Issue

**Before i start, i posted this in the Outlook section and was told to post it the Outlook for Exchange section.. So i posted this in the Outlook for Exchange section and the Moderator tells me to post it in the
Outlook section.. So i'm being thrown in a loop back and forth between two forums. Please help me either post it in the correct section or help me with my issue. Links to my posts are at the bottom of this re-post.**
I have a user who adds emails to the "Notes" section of a shared contact. It has worked in the past. She now drags and drops the email into the notes folder, it shows that the email was added, she saves the contact, closes the contact,
then reopens the contact and the information/email that was added is no longer there.
Also, when she opens up the contact, on the top of the window it says "This item was not completely updated during the last server synchronization"
On the bottom of the contact's window it says "Last modified by [email protected] on 11/19/2014" So it doesn't seem to have updated for about 5 months.
The user is on Outlook 2010 - Cached Mode - Windows 7
We use Exchange 2013
We have checked her sync issues folder and see two messages pertaining to this shared contact.

Hi Allen,
Neither are correct. They open a contact in their address book and drag the email into the "Notes" section of the contact. So they do not drag the email into the Notes section of Outlook nor the Contacts section to create a new contact.
There are no errors. I have a screenshot with an example contact card but i can't add it because it says i need to verify my account.. I'm not sure how to do that. I already clicked on the verification email. For example. An email
to me from Bill titled "company announcement" is dragged into the notes section of in Bill's contact card. This is so that i can go to my contacts, click on bill's card, and see emails from him that are important saved inside his contact card.
After dragging the email into this location, I hit save and close the contact card. Usually the email stays there in the notes section but lately when I reopen the contact card, the email that I dropped into the Notes section has disappeared. Other
emails are still in the Notes section but new ones just don't stay.
Just tried doing a Send/Receive All and same issue. User is in cached mode because they have a large mailbox. Can try online mode. Do you know if the Notes section in the contact list has
a size limit?

Synch Outlook Shared Contacts

I have a user who needs to access her boss's contacts(as well as her own) on her blackberry. Her email etc is handled thru Outlook 2007/Exchange 2007 / BES. Her Outlook contacts synch correctly but her boss's shared contacts are not being synched to the device. She says that it has been working up until last week. Any help in getting this to work would be appreciated.

Way old this but still needs correcting. Above answer is not accurate - you can sync multiple contact Dbs off an exchange server. Turn off PIM wireless sync for this user in BES then use Desktop Manager to select one or more public folders containing contact info to sync with device along with the users own contacts in their mailbox. In this example I believe that if the Boss's mailbox (and the contacts folder specifically) is shared with editorial permissions for the PA, then if she adds this mailbox to her Outlook profile such that she can see his contacts folder, then she will be able to select them in Desktop Manager. Haven't tried this myself but switching off wireless sync and use Desktop Manager and manual sync'ing is the way to go

Your bad charger probably damaged something inside as well. Your hard drive directory may be damaged too.
If you lack a backup, you should read this:

Otherwise, bring it in for service.

Cannot delete .PDF files from a shared folder.

Hello,
I am having issues with deleting/renaming PDF files!
Permissions is not an issue as even logged in as the Network Administrator of the Domain, I still can't delete the file.
The error message I'm recieving is: cannot delete xxxx.pdf It is being used by another person or program. Close any programs that might be using this file and try again.
There are only 1 or 2 users that would have access to the files and neither of them are using them. I can also reset the security permissions for the file and take ownership, but even after doing these things it doesn't make a difference?
I've tried various unlocking tools (Unlocker) and none of them report that the file is open or that there are any locks on them. This only happens with PDF files. If I reboot the sever the problem will go away, but this server needs to be 99.999% of the
time!
Help please!

Hi,
Windows is somehow accessing Thumbs.db during the time of the folder move/delete attempt. Please go into Folder options > View > Always show icons, never thumbnails to check if you can delete .PDF files.

Cannot delete a phone number for a contact

When I open the phone tab for a contact some of the numbers do not have check marks. One of them is now obsolete and I want to delete it, but can't. Any suggestions?

Third party application can list contacts from shared contacts folder, but not retrieve

I am working with a third party developer on a problem occurring in their application.<o:p></o:p>
The software displays the contact list and retrieves a fax number from Outlook. I wish to
return a number from an Outlook Shared Contacts Folder.
This works well under Windows 7 with Outlook 2013 in cached mode..<o:p></o:p>
Running the same software in a terminal services window on a Remote Desktop Server running
Server 2008 R2 with Outlook in Online mode an error is produced when trying to
do the same. The contact list is shown, but when the code tries to retrieve the
displayed record there is the following error:<o:p></o:p>
x664bc8bcf689f252.x36f18e7b3c08fff5()
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80040201): The operation failed.
at Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.AddressEntry.GetContact()
at Zetadocs.Outlook.OM.x664bc8bcf689f252.x36f18e7b3c08fff5()<o:p></o:p>
If I open Outlook myself first, browse to People and click on the Shared Contacts Folder,
then run the application, there is no error and everything works fine. It is as
if starting Outlook from code is not loading all contact folder information.<o:p></o:p>
Have you any suggestions on what may be causing this to happen and if I can do anything to cure this?<o:p></o:p>

Sorry to be away from this for so long.
It looks like Outlook is not initializing shared folders when it starts.
I confirmed this using the following code for the Outlook startup event:
Private Sub Application_Startup()
    Dim olApp As Outlook.Application
    Dim nspNameSpace As Outlook.NameSpace
    Dim objTempFolder As Outlook.MAPIFolder
    Set olApp = ThisOutlookSession.Application
    Set nspNameSpace = olApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
    For Each objTempFolder In nspNameSpace.Folders
    Next objTempFolder
End Sub
With this in place I do not need to go to People and click the shared folder, and the third party app has no problems retrieving.
The third party app starts Outlook itself if it is not already running. In this scenario no events fire.
So the question is: Is there a means of executing this code when the third party app starts Outlook?

Did you Apply the change after selecting (checking the box for) Manually manage music and videos?
With the latest iTunes, if the sidebar is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.
In the sidebar, select the iPod under DEVICES. Click the toggle (to the left of iPod) to drop down the iPod's content list, indented under iPod. Click on Music there. Over to the right, the list of songs on the iPod is shown. You can select songs there, right click on them, and select Delete from the contextual menu. You can also select songs there, go up to the menu bar, and select Delete under Edit. You can also select songs there, and just press the Delete key on the keyboard.
If you want to use automatic syncing, which is far more convenient than the manual method, and easily manage content on the iPod (add and remove songs), please post back.

Shared user contacts in Outlook Address book

Hello,
     I have an issue that a user who is an administrative assistant wants her bosses shared contacts (which she helps manage) to show up in her personal Outlook Address Book, so that she can send people contacts by just clicking the TO: button. This is has proved deceptivly difficult. Any thoughts?
     Oh, this is an Exchange 2007 SP1 server, and both of the client pcs are Outlook 2007.
    If we can get that up and running, she would also like to be able to export his contacts from her terminal in the CSV format.
Thanks,
Nathan

Has anyone had any luck with Will Shepherd's/James-Luo's method or something similar for use with Microsoft's Office 365 Exchange 2010 system?
I followed the steps and, indeed, on my Admin/User A's OL2010, the address book did list the shared contacts. But as soon as I selected it, it gave the error:
"The address list cannot be displayed. The contact folder associated with this address list could not be opened; It may have been moved or deleted, or you do not have permissions. For information on how to remove this folder from the
Outlook Address Book, see Microsoft Outlook Help."
The shared contact folder then dissappeared from the list.
I didn't really understand Will's step 2 which James does not include. I don't know what "Full" mailbox rights meant. The permission levels shown are Owner, Publishing Editor, Author, Nonediting Author, Reviewer, Contributor, and none.
Setting it to Owner did not work, as in the profile, I could not change the email address back from Boss/User B to Admin/User A. I chose Publishing editor and added a check mark for Folder Contact.
I tried these methods on numerous new OL profiles and got the same results whether the shared contacts where the the first set or a secondary set and whether or not I sent invitiations for sharing from Boss/User A, which sets the permissions.
What good are shared contacts, Microsoft, if you can't use them? This seems like such a basic issue that, surely, I and others have a major misunderstanding about something.
If it matters, this client does not have Sharepoint and only has the Office 365 Plan 1 with its mailboxes.
I would greatly appreciate any hint on how to make the contacts sharable and USEABLE. Otherwise this client will likely scrap Office 365 and I will reinstall Sync2 which worked fairly well.

Outlook 2010 - disconnected shared contact folder and unknown source of it.

Hi All,
We have quite tought problem, but quite easy do describe so i will do it in two words :) Two of the users have such a folder:
But they can see nothing inside - the mailbox has been migrated/deleted/whatever :) Those shared contacts wasn't from pst -for sure, I have asked those users, they told the they reaching that together, and if one of them added some contacts - it appeared
automatically.
And now the thing is - how we can get to know where was it from :) it would be easier - but users has changed the name of the folder to "Team Contacts", if she haven't, we would have mailbox name - and no problem at all.
Does anybody knows how to retrieve the source of that folder? Maybe - as it wasn't de-attached from outlook, will there be some information in some sort of outlook logs? Like "Outlook tried to connect to the folder but blabl bla " :)
We cannot see anything in mfcmapi either.
Thanks for any help,
Zaicnupagadi

Hi,
If the two users received an email when the contacts are shared, we may let the users check in the Inbox to see who sent the email.
We can search the email by some key words, like "Sharing""Share""Sharing invitation", don't forget some folders like
Deleted Items.
Hope this is helpful.

Best Practice for Shared Contacts available as an Address Book in Outlook??

Yep so crazy that Microsoft still refuses (by design) to enable address book option for Shared contacts!!!!!!! So I am asking what do they suggest then for my clients to have a shared contact list that is available as an address book and available
to sync to your phone?
Problem:
I have a client that the boss has a contact list in his outlook that he has synced to his phone that is shared so that everyone else on his team can see the contacts, since it is a shared contact list users are not able to add it to their address book (by
design..nice design)
Solutions I know of:
1.Use public folder for contact list...= Nope public folder contact list will not sync with his iphone/ipad...(yes there are 3rd party tools but I would prefer to not go this route)
2.Sharepoint....I have heard this one but don't know much about it. How does it sync to outlook and phones? Is it seemless? can user add contacts in outlook?
3. ??
Seems like this would be a huge issue that microsoft would have fixed by now. Let me know if anyone has any ideas...
Sbs 2003 I will miss you !!!!

Exchange 2010 with Outlook 2007 Shared Contacts with Attachments

We have an Exchange 2010 server. There is only one Exchange server so all roles are on this server.
Found out that sharing contacts between users misses something.
If a user has Attachments or Notes in their contacts we can see via the Attachment column in Contacts that there are attachments.
But another user viewing the shared Contacts of the user above, cannot see if the Contacts have Attachments unless they open each one. The Attachment column states there are no Attachments. Is this how it is? Is it a syncing issue?
The image I have attached is what the user sees accessing a shared contact address book. It shows Notes and the Attachments columns. The contacts with partial words visible in the Notes column should have a Paper Clip Icon as they also have attached items.

Hi,
There is no related feature in Exchange server to manage Outlook view.
Additionally, I shared my Contact with another user in my Exchange 2010 SP3 with Outlook 2013 environment. And it showed the same results as yours. The attachments icon was not shown in the list view in another user’s Outlook but it appeared in my own Contact.
Thanks,

Shared Outlook Addressbook Contacts not displaying

We have a shared Exchange addressbook with distribution email groups.
When someone connects to the shared addressbook, composes an email to a group, the email distribution list is empty.
In troubleshooting, I noticed that when we expand the distribution list to view the recipients, most of the recipients are missing and only semicolons appear.
Further troubleshooting, I notice that when I open the distribution list with my Outlook client and click on the Update Now icon, and then go to create the email then when I expand the group the email addresses now appear.
Now, my Outlook profile is a cached profile. The shared contact list that I pulled the distribution list from is an online/non-cached shared contact list.
What I also found is that if I switched my Outlook client to be online only(not cached) the share address book lists appear properly when expanded.
Is there any way to make this list appear correctly without having to click on update now for each and every distribution list in the shared contacts list we have on the server?
I would really prefer that every time one wants to use this shared contact list, they do not have o click the update not button or switch from cached mode to make this work.
T.I.A
Thanks in Advance!

Hi,
I noticed that the issue didn't happen when you were using Outlook in Online mode. Please also check whether the issue happens in OWA.
If OWA works well and the issue only happens in Outlook Cached mode for some users not all users, we can do the following steps in Outlook to download Offline Address Book to check whether the issue persists:
1. Delete the *.oab files in the following folders in local machine:
\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\Offline Address Books
2. Create a new Outlook profile that uses Cached Exchange Mode.
3. Start Outlook 2010 with this new profile.
4. In the ribbon click Send / Receive, click
Send/Receive Groups and then click Download Address Book.

How do I setup useful shared contacts with Exchange OWA Outlook 2013

Hi There,
I have a non profit I'm helping out. They have Exchange 2013 Sp1 & outlook 2013 .
How can I setup shared contacts for Outlook and OWA users?
I have been struggling to setup a useful shared contacts folder. No Matter what way I do it there seems to be major shortcomings.
They have 1 "Shared" mailbox account [email protected] and many user accounts [email protected]
I first imported the contacts from csv into a contacts folder in the info@ account, which works great for the Info@ user. When I share the folder with other users they can see it listed in "People" in full Outlook, but if they're addressing a message
they can't see the contacts when they hit the TO button. If I look at the properties of the Info@ Contacts folder in the folder list of the User, the Outlook Address Book tab is missing. Also can't find any way in OWA for User@ to open the shared contact folder.
I also tried using Public folders to share the contacts but found problems there too. Using Full desktop Outlook, users can share contacts, add to their Outlook address book etc. Great, but... there's no way to access Public Folder Contact folders in OWA.
They're a fully volunteer organization so many people are using OWA from home, they're not IT people so it needs to be easy.
Is there something I'm missing, when I started out on the task I thought it would be simple. Its hard to believe after all this time MS hasn't addressed these major shared contact shortcomings.
Thanks for any help!

I decided to go with a mixed solution.
Not every member has a society email account, only the executive and key volunteers have society exchange email accounts.
I imported the society member list into the the GAL, this allows any society mail users to email other members easily
I then imported the larger marketing list into the shared mail account which is restricted to a few users. They can be shared from there to other users, but they can only access those shared contact from Outlook (not OWA)
It's not ideal as OWA users cannot access the contacts from the Shared Mailbox but they can at least find other members addresses easily.
It looks like I could also setup a new GAL and share it with only some users, haven't dug too deeply into this yet.
Thanks for your help Ed
