Company Webmail Outlook Web Access

When I'm on a biz trip I have to use Web Access for my webmail. I noticed that when I use Safari vs. when I use my PC lap top, the whole look is very different. PC allows me to have a preview page and on my ibook it constantly asks for my password. And I can't use several features that are offerend through my PC laptop. I tried using Mac version of Explorer, but it doesn't even open up the webmail. What can I do? Do I need to start carrying my PC laptop on biz trips?

MS uses ActiveX controls in the Windows version of OWA that simply do not exist in the Mac version. We have both flavors of client at the school where I'm the Tech coordinator, and Exchange 2003's Mac OWA client is substantially better than before, but nowhere near as good as the Windows version. Such is life with MS - Windows will always get preferential treatment.
However, the bigger issue is that Exchange 2003 OWA seems to be having serious loading issues in Safari 2.0. Ever since I upgraded my school's machines to 10.4.2, OWA has been all but inaccessible using Safari. The left pane loads, but the right pane, where the messages appear, takes ages to load if it ever loads at all. No problems under IE or Firefox. Is there an Apple rep out there to address this to? My faculty and staff are very irritated, and I'd rather not switch away from Safari and confuse them even more if I don't have to.

    Hello,
    I bought an iMac few days ago. I would like to sync ical on my iMac with my professional calendar I use in my company (from outlook web access).
    I was easy to manage it on my iPhone (I just add a new "exchange" mail account and ask for a calendar sync only) and it worked very quickly.
    But I cannot do it with the iMac, and I don't undersatnd why?
    the domain is is used for my iPhone is the following :
    owa.companyname.com
    I tried all the solutions I found in this forum but it doesn't work.
    Many thanks in advancefor your help.

    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() {                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

  • Outlook Web Access Light and Attachments

    Hi - my company makes email available by MS webmail as well as outlook clients on PCs - when i travel with my own Mac i accesss the webmail - but it wont allow me to download attachments, only view them as a web doc - no editing or saving etc.
    Our IT boys reckon that if I select "Private" computer instead of "Public" then it will work - however, this notion of a network setup option relates to Windows - I don't recall it on the Mac - any suggestions welcomed please\
    Many thanks

    Hi,
    Glad to know that we have found the solution, thank you for your sharing.
    Some additional information about msexchquerybaseDN for your reference:
    OWA does not incorporate user permission sets when doing searches. The permissions set on OUs do not prevent search results from including other segregated group's recipients, due to how OWA works. This is where attribute
    msExchQueryBaseDN comes in.
    In order for us to control or restrict the search results to include only the members of the appropriate address list in Outlook Web Access, we must set the attribute
    msExchQueryBaseDN on each user object to the
    distinguishedname (DN) of the OU or an address list containing the correct group of users.
    More details in the following blog:

  • Outlook Web Access (OWA)

    My company uses an Exchange Server with Outlook Web Access enabled, but I'm not sure of the other settings (IMAP?)
    When I got my iPhone I could not set up a link to the main server, but after some research discovered I could retrieve and send mail if I set up the account like this:
    webmail.companyname.com
    username: first.lastname (as my company designates us)
    password: as required.
    This worked fine until the company turned off some function of the server so that we can only access mail by signing into webmail with a browser (very cumbersome). However, users of Sprint Instincts can still access their mail by using the Instinct's mail setup and specifying an OWA account. Their mail is not "pushed" to their phones, but they can still access it by going to their mail function similar to us iPhone users just touching the mail icon. They are not looking at a website like through a browser, but rather just like any other synched mailbox.
    Why can't the iPhone still access webmail like the Instinct? Is there a way around this or an App that makes webmail accessible without going through the browser?
    Thanks,
    Tim

  • Cannot press SEND / NEW MAIL button in MS Outlook Web Access

    I am completely upset after updating the iphone os 4.1 because i cannot simply send email using the MS outlook web access. FYI I can still view the email but cannot send. my company doesnt allow me to use the POP (similar to yahoo) for security reason and hence i must need to use the webmail (via internet).
    moreover, my wife just bought another one which is still under 4.01 but her phone can do. what's the problem? can i convert back to 4.01 or my phone has problem? pls help. thanks!

    Solution (found by searching forum for "Safari Crashes"):
    Settings > Safari > Autofill > Names & Passwords "Set to OFF".
    Then choose "Continue" the next time. You've lost your password fill-in but at least you can log in.

  • Outlook Web Access - Not Working In Safari

    Not sure if it can be fixed or not. I get the same problem in Camino. When I go to my works Outlook Web Access, I can login and see everything - however the setup is all wrong. There are boxes and files and folders in places that it should not be. It's like the coding is all wrong.
    However as usual, it works fine in IE 7 on my PC. I just bought my Mac for a reason - to get away from Windows. Help me figure this out so I can do just that.
    Any suggestions or comments? I thought Safari and Camino were "universal" browsers? I know IE is an MS product and can't be the only browser that works right. If it is, we are in a world of hurt.
    Please help! Thanks

    Hello AbSoluTc,
    First of all, welcome to the Apple discussions.
    I hat the same problem to get in the company server via my Mac. So now I use the laptop from the company to work online.
    I think in your case you have to use your PC to get in without issues.
    Let me know if so ...
    Good luck ...

  • Outlook Web Access vs ActiveSync

    Hi all,
    Apologies if this question was already asked, but I can't seem to find it if so.
    I work at a largish company who use Outlook Exchange for our corporate mail. One of the main reasons I got my iPhone 3G is so I read my work mail wherever I am without having to ask for a company Blackberry.
    However I may have made a mistake as I didn't realise how worried about security the firm is. I cannot set up ActiveSync for the life of me - it just says wrong password even when it is correct - and this may be because:
    1) The firm does not allow IMAP or POP access to Exchange
    2) I do not think they have ActiveSync activated on teh server and I cannot change this
    However, we do have Outlook Web Access (OWA) which I can access through a normal browser. In fact I can get this working on Safari but I have to enter the username/domain and password every single time which is unworkable. Therefore my question is:
    - Can I access work email through iPhone native email client, perhaps by utilising the Outlook Web Access (or finding a way to still use ActiveSync)?
    Thanks a lot for any help, I'm tearing my hair out here (in a newbie style of way)!!

    Unfortunately not, OWA using some fancy coding that means it will never store your password in your broswer. You have to type it in every time.
    Your only choice is to yell and scream at your IT department until they enable ActiveSync.
    Please note some key words that may help you achieve this goal:
    *Remote Wipe* - This allows, in the event of the phone been stolen, for the phone to be wiped remotely.
    *Limited Exposure via Limited Backdated Emails* - This means that if for any reason the person who stole your phone is smart enough to disable all internet access (WiFi, 3G, EDGE, GPRS) BEFORE turning (or the wipe command is issued) on the headset there will be a limited amount of mail in the box... the options are 1 day, 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month (default), no limit.
    And finally, *Increased Productivety* - You will be able to increase the produtivity of your working by getting mail on your phone.

  • Won't validate my password to outlook web access, but it work using a browser

    I changed my office network password and my blackberry won't validate my new password a few days ago.
    But I can go to my company outlook web access using a browser and the new password work.
    It means a problem with a connector on my blackberry.

    If you migrated your MobileMe account to iCloud before September last year then your @me.com address should still be functioning. If you sign into http://icloud.com can you see your mail there?
    If you did migrate, and can get into Mail on the website, then you can set up Mail on Snow Leopard to access it. However when you try to set it up, the Mail 'Wizard' will attempt to force you to te MobileMe settings, because it's never heard of iCloud. To get round this you will need to follow the procedure outlined here:
    Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard
    If you did not migrate your account then you don't have an iCloud account and your @me.com address will no longer function.

    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:

  • Outlook Integration - Quotations via Office Outlook Web-Access possible?

    Dear all,
    via the Outlook Integration Add-On it is possible to view, create and edit Quotations via the Outlook Client and synchronize them with SAP Business One. The add-on automatically creates a folder in the Outlook client for all the Quotations.
    Our company is using Microsoft Exchange and also the Office Outlook Web-Access function from Microsoft. Means the webbased Outlook Version. Also here of course I can see my quotation folder. But when I click on one of the Quotations in that folder, no any Data get displayed.
    My question: Does somebody know a way how at least to display synchronized Quotations also via the web-based Outlook version?
    Thanks a lot and best regards,
    David

    Dear Gordon,
    what do you mean exactly by 'Through eMails'? I can see the quotations in my 'Quotations' folder in the outlook web-access Platform. But when I click on any of them, I just can see the subject. But he body (with Quotation details such as Header, Line Items, Footer) is empty. An example of a Subject looks as follows:
    41 (Series=11,Key=41) Liberty City Pipes and Fittings - Posting Date: 3/3/2010

  • Checking email from site that use Outlook Web Access Lite

    I just got a Blackberry 8330 and need to use it for checking email from my company's email server.
    It turns out that this server uses Outlook Web Access lite. I am currently not able to check the mail as I am
    getting errors that say the browser needs to accept cookies. Also something about scripting.
    Does anybody know how to work around this problem?
    I don't want to "integrate" this email account so that I get the messages pushed to the Blackberry- only to be able to
    access the email site and check the email.
    Solutions Please!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    It might not actually be a cookie problem...since I don't access OWA in the way you want (I do integrate it via BIS...very slick!), I can only guess.
    From within the Browser, click the BBKey and select Options. Inside of there are a ton of different options, including one that lets your BB browser identify to a website as IE, FF, or BB...the default being, of course, BB. If you change that to IE, you might have more luck. That setting is in the Browser Configuration screen and is usually called Browser Identification.
    There are also many other settings that may be helpful...basically you need to fiddle around with these until you find the combination that works right for your specific situation. But I'd try the Browser ID/Emulation first.
    Cheers!

  • Need help accessing Outlook Web Access (OWA)

    I want to be able to to access Outlook Web Access (OWA) from my touch. It was part of the reason that I bought it. I don't want full crackberry functions, just the ability to see my email on OWA and shoot off a short reply. When I try to log in, I get the user name and password prompt, but then it just hangs. I saw on a prior post that someone said it just takes a long time, so I left for several hours and no movement. Our OWA is mail.company.com with normal user name and password. I have tried logging in using [email protected], domaine/username and tried accessing though OMA (which it turns out we do not have). Any help, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I would also appreciate anyone telling me what info I need to get from my IT guy as he is less than helpful on this issue (He thinks that screen is to small to be useful so why should he bother trying to help).
    Thanks

    Sorry you're having trouble... Here's my experience so far (1 week with IPT)
    I have used the IPT to access to separate OWA servers with good results. It's actually more usable than I expected.
    Via Outlook Web Access 2007, the Use Outlook Web Access Light checkbox is automatically checked for me when I access via the IPT.
    Via Outlook Excahnge Server 2003, I use the 'basic' option.
    Neither server takes more than 10-15 seconds to log in.

  • Outlook Web Access hangs constantly

    i'm using safari to use Microsoft Office Outlook Web Access to get to the email server for my office. I have been able to log in and can receive, read and reply to emails with no problem, except that safari hangs almost exactly every minute, for 20 seconds, presumably while it checks for more mail..
    this makes it almost unusable.
    i've mailed my company tech support guys, but they're in australia (asleep!) and i need to work now!
    i'm guessing that this is only something that they can fix, perhaps by setting my outlook to check for mails manually rather than every minute?
    or am i completely misunderstanding this problem?
    thanks in advance

  • Can no longer connect to a Microsoft Outlook Web Access site

    Hi,
    I hope you can help.
    I used to be able to access a Microsoft Outlook Web Access site. However recently I am unable to do so. It has a self signed certificate, which I used to choose to accept, and then the browser waits and waits and waits.
    I have tried Safari, Firefox, Camino, Flock, Opera, even Internet Explorer. They all behave the same way.
    I am not sure when it stopped working. I only log on infrequently. So I do not know if it stopped working after a security update or an OS upgrade.
    My Mac is up to date with software updates. I have performed the usual things, repaired permissions etc.
    The funny thing is I can connect using Netscape Comunicator under Classic. I have also borrowed a friend's MacBook running leopard, and that works too.
    I am wondering if a setting somewhere has become corrputed or inadvertently set incorrectly.
    Thank you in anticipation.
    Ted

    Hi Bryan,
    Thanks for your input.
    Unfortunately I cannot get any of the OS X browsers I have tried to get beyond the accepting the site's certificate. All just stall waiting on the Outlook Web Access site. Safari 3.1, Camino, Flock, Firefox (2.0.0.12 and 3 beta 4), Netscape (7.1 and 9), Microsoft's Internet Explorer (thinking that might be more integrated with its Outlook Web Access package).
    I have even deleted the certificates from my Keychain (for Safari) or within the other browsers' preferences.
    Last night I even re-applied the 10.4.11 combo updater and then checked for software updates to confirm my system was up to date, but again without success when attempting to reach the Outlook Web Access site.
    Thanks anyway.
    Ted
