Configure Outlook 2010 for OWA

I have recently installed outlook 2010. I configured my att email address to populate my inbox. So now I want that outlook to be my OWA address. What is that web address?

Do you mean by OWA URL, you can go to task manager on computer where outlook is installed and press CTRL key and right click on outlook icon and select connection status, you can find the URL.
or
Click the File tab near the top left
Click the Info tab
Click the big "Account Settings" button and then "Account Settings" again on the pop out menu
On E-mail tab ensure your address is selected and click the "Change..." button just above it
Click the "More Settings ..." button at the bottom
Go to the Connection tab and click "Exchange Proxy Settings..." button at the bottom
It is the first URL on this window. Something like https://mail.mydomain.com
From exchange server you can run power shell command
"Get-OWAVirtualDirectory –Identity “owa (default web site)”"

Unable to add account to Outlook 2010 for email address under custom domain

I am unable to add a new account in Outlook 2010 for an email account set up under a custom domain.
Can anyone explain why login credentials that work for outlook.com (successful access to email inbox) return an authentication failure (401 error) when used to test connectivity via https://testconnectivity.microsoft.com?
Details:
I set up a custom domain at https://domains.live.com and did the following DNS configuration steps at my web hosting company following instructions from domains.live.com:
Created custom MX record
Created CNAME record [name:] autodiscover.jrergonomics.com [value:] autodiscover.outlook.com.
I created email addresses at domains.live.com > jrergonomics.com > Member accounts and tested by successfully logging in to outlook.com.
When I try to add either account to Outlook 2010, I get a popup box with this information:
Title: "Windows Security"
Connecting to [email protected]
[[email protected]]
[ ] Remember my credentials
[ OK ] [ Cancel
The credentials that I use successfully to log in to outlook.com don't work here; I get the popup box 3-4 times and then the Outlook 2010 Add New Account dialog displays an error:
"An encrypted connection to your mail server is not available. Click Next to attempt using an unencrypted connection."
Clicking Next results in an error message:
"Problem Connecting to Server"
I have tried verifying the connectivity using https://testconnectivity.microsoft.com:

I use a Win7 PC with iCloud and Outlook 2010 for syncing my calendar and contacts. I can enter data in my Outlook Calendar and it will appear in iCloud, but data entered in iCloud does not sync back to Outlook. ICloud syncs to my iphone fine both ways.

I use Win 7 PC with iCloud and Outlook 2010 for syncing my Contacts and Calendar. They have stopped syncing...mostly.
Now, appointments I enter on my local Outlook (iCloud) Calendar goes up to iCloud fine. But, data I enter on iCloud directly does not come down to my local Outlook iCloud Calendar. If I reboot the computer, the iCloud data shows up.
Also, Contacts I try to enter on my Outlook (iCloud) Contacts goes up to iCloud fine, but does not show up in my local iCloud Contacts.
All syncing works with my iPhone.
I have signed out of iCloud on PC. I have stopped syncing and re-started. No change.
I have an .aplzod folder for iCloud. I have a separate Earthlink.net.pst email account in Outlook and a me.com.pst Outlook email account (which I don't actually use) listed under Data Files.
Any help would be appreciated. Curious that Outlook will upload to iCloud but not receive downloads unless I reboot. However, rebooting does not download the missing Contacts.

Hi Jim!
You've started off with some good troubleshooting steps, so let's see if we can take this a little further and figure out what the issue is with your iCloud contacts and calendars. I have two articles here that will help you troubleshoot this issue a little further, but the troubleshooting steps for both articles are exactly the same, so I will lay those out for you here:
Note: When using iCloud Control Panel 2.0 and later, iCloud Calendar event descriptions in Outlook 2010 do not support text formatting (bold, italics, or underline), HTML, images, or attachments. The contextual (right-click) menu has also been disabled.
If you are having trouble with a PC (with Outlook 2007 or 2010) and iCloud Calendar, try each of these steps, testing after each to see if the issue is resolved:
Verify that you are using a Windows configuration that is supported by iCloud. For more information, see iCloud system requirements.
When enabling Calendars in the iCloud Control Panel, part of the setup process is to copy your Calendars data from the default Outlook ".pst" file to iCloud, and then remove the Calendars from the ".pst" file by placing them in the Deleted Items folder in Outlook. The Calendars data is then stored in the iCloud data set within Outlook so that changes can be pushed to and from Outlook by iCloud. Be sure you are looking for your data within the iCloud dataset within Outlook after enabling Calendars in the iCloud Control Panel. The deleted files can be seen by viewing Deleted Items within your Outlook Folder List. This is not iCloud removing your data; iCloud simply copies your data into the iCloud data set and then removes the local Calendars data by placing it in the Deleted Items folder.
Make sure your computer is online. Attempt to view www.apple.com and iCloud.com. If you can't connect to the Internet, your iCloud calendars and events will not update in Outlook. Click here for more information about troubleshooting your Internet connection.
Open a secure website to test if you are online as is necessary for iCloud Calendar. This also tests if the ports 80 and 443 are accessible. Outlook requires port 443 access to iCloud in order to push and pull updates to and from the iCloud Calendar servers.
Verify that your iCloud member name is entered into the iCloud Control Panel pane. See iCloud Setup for more information about setting up iCloud on Windows.
Completely close and reopen the iCloud Control Panel.
If you recently made changes in Outlook and they are not moving to your other devices or vice-versa, click the Refresh button in Outlook.
Turn iCloud Calendar off and back on:
Close Outlook.
Open the Windows Control Panel:
In Windows 8, move the pointer to the upper-right corner of the screen to show the Charms bar, click the Search charm, and then click the iCloud Control Panel on the left.
In Windows 7 and Vista, choose Start menu > All Programs > iCloud > iCloud.
Remove the checkmark in the checkbox next to Mail, Contacts, Calendars & Tasks, and click Apply. Wait a few seconds, then replace the checkmark, and click Apply.
Open Outlook and test to see if the issue has been resolved.
Ensure the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active within Outlook.
Outlook 2010:
Open Outlook 2010.
Click the File menu.
Click Options in the left panel of the Outlook window.
Click Add-Ins in the left panel of the Outlook Options window.
Look at the list of add-ins beneath "Active Application Add-Ins" and verify that the "iCloud Outlook Add-in" is listed.
For Outlook 2007, follow these steps to verify the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active
Open Outlook 2007.
From the Tools menu, choose Trust Center.
Select Add-ins from the left column.
Look at the list of add-ins beneath "Active Application Add-Ins" and verify that the "iCloud Outlook Add-in" is listed.
For additional information about managing Add-ins with Microsoft Outlook, see this Microsoft support document.
Restart your computer. This may sound simple, but it does reinitialize your network and application settings and can frequently resolve issues.

Outlook 2010 for Mac cannot send.

I'm having a related, but slightly different problem: Just switched from a PC with Outlook to new iMac with core i5 and OS X (10.6.5) and Outlook 2010 for Mac to access my Verizon email. Incoming mail is 100% successful, but have been unable to send a single message. The Outlook error message says it cannot connect to Verizon's outgoing sever (outgoing.email.net), because it requires server authentication. All account setting are identical to instructions.
I have researched the Microsoft Outlook forums for server authentication issues and found primarily resolutions and recommendations to switch to various different port numbers. Tried all of these suggestions with no success. So am still looking for an assist. Is this the right thread to make that query? If not, can any of you direct me to the appropriate discussion group? Thank you!

Transfer emails from outlook 2011 for mac to Outlook 2010 for windows

Hi,
I want to transfer emails from outlook 2011 for mac to outlook 2010 for windows.
Outlook 2011 exports mails only in olm format and there is no option to import olm files in outlook 2010.
I can drag and drop emails from outlook 2011 to a finder folder which saves emails as eml files. How can import eml files into outlook 2010.
Please help

Hi,
Thank you for using
Microsoft Office for IT Professionals Forums.
Base on the research ,
We can try the steps below to add the registry sub key. This will open all .eml files that are in the file system using Outlook, including *.eml attachments on messages in OE/WLM. Any replies will be sent
using Outlook.
===========
Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the
registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem
occurs.
1.Type
regedit in the Search field on the Start menu or press
Windows Key+ R and enter it in the Run command.
2.Navigate to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Microsoft Internet Mail Message WLMail\shell\open\command
Or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Microsoft Internet Mail Message\shell\open\command
3. Change the command line (here its "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Live\Mail\wlmail.exe" /eml:%1)
to the following line, exactly as shown below but correcting the path to Outlook.exe to match the path on your computer.
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\OUTLOOK.EXE" /eml "%1"
Thanks for your understanding.
Sincerely
Rex Zhang

I purchased a new Windows 8 PC. I have used and continue to use Outlook 2010 for my calendar. With my old Windows 7 PC and Outlook 2010, my calendar sinked properly with my Iphone 5. Now with the new Windows 8 PC, it does not. Help!

I purchased a new Windows 8 PC and I use Outlook 2010 for my calendar. With my old Windows 7 PC and Outlook 2010, my calendar would sync with my Iphone 5, but with the new Windows 8 PC and Outlook 2010, it does not, and I can't figure out how to snyc them. The emails from Outlook 2010 sync, but the calendar does not. Help! Thanks.

Easy solution for restoring lost calendar informaiton, thank goodness. On your iPhone, go to settings, then to iCloud. If your Calendar selection is turned off, turn it on. Your info should restore. If your Calendar selection is turned on, then turn it off. Choose to save calendars when asked. After it shuts the Calendar off, turn it back on. Your info should be restored.
Thank you to Apple support for walking me through this. Shame on you Apple for not just telling people about this easy fix rather than making us go through all of this pain and worry.

Does anyone know how to set alerts in the iCloud calendar of Outlook 2010 for PC?

Does anyone know how to set alerts in the iCloud calendar on Microsoft Outlook 2010 for a PC? Outlook gives me a warning message and does not allow me to save alerts for calendar events created in iCloud calendar. It will allow me to save events in the non-iCloud calendars.

Ignore what office says, when the warning comes up saying that the reminder will not work click on yes,
I just tested it and i had the reminder on my ihpone in outlook and also as i had the calendar open in safari it popped up on there too ( I wasn't aware it did that)

Is it possible to configure Outlook 2010 as the Default Mail client if it is presented to the Desktop via RemoteApp?

I am a user of RemoteApps. I connect to a Website that presents me with various applications, include Outlook 2010. however, I use other programs that I need to send mail from that are in within the RemoteApp workspace. Is it possible to configure windows
7 to map a call to RemoteApp/Outlook2010 to send mail as a default mail client? or Perhaps a way to get OWA to map as a default mail client handler?
I am using Windows 7 SP1 - Updated to latest service releases, Outlook 2010 from RemoteApps, and IE 11.
Thank you in advance!

Hi Raymond,
Based on my research, we can use Group Policy and Internet Options to configure default mail client.

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.

Public Folders not visible in outlook 2010 for some

Migrated exchange 2007 to 2013. I know Public Folders are a mailbox now.
My question is why do some users with outlook 2010 see the Public Folders under "Tasks" on the left vertical bottom of outlook with "Folder List" highlighted and other DON'T -They just don't see anything under "Tasks" on the
left vertical bottom of outlook with "Folder List" highlighted
Also (in a newly created email) if they go to the address book drop down click on Public Folders entry its empty.
any help would be appreciated
RJM

Hi RJM,
Except above links, I also recommend you refer to the following article to migrate the PF from exchange 2007 to 2013:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/meamcs/archive/2013/07/25/part-4-step-by-step-exchange-2007-to-2013-migration.aspx
Check the status
Once the migration reached the AutoSuspended state as shown below, proceed to the next steps, otherwise you must wait as this may take some time based on your PF size.
Get-PublicFolderMigrationRequest | Get-PublicFolderMigrationRequestStatistics
Lock Down PF for Migration (Down time is required, as during this phase PF will bot be accessible for all users)
Set-OrganizationConfig -PublicFoldersLockedForMigration:$true
Set-PublicFolderMigrationRequest -Identity \PublicFolderMigration -PreventCompletion:$false
Resume-PublicFolderMigrationRequest -Identity \PublicFolderMigration
Test and Unlock the PF Migration
I will configure a test user to use the new PF using the following command:

Where can I download the icloud add in for Outlook 2010 for PC?

I recently purchased Outlook 2010 and I don't seem to have the iCloud add in and I can't figure out where to download it. I'm using Windows 7.

I have done that. When I try to synch my contacts and calendar I get the message: "Setup can't continue because Outlook isn't configured to have a default profile. Check your Outlook settings and try again."
But I do have Outlook configured with a default profile. When I follow the rabbit trail of troubleshooting it comes down to checking to make sure the iCloud add in is active. When I check that, not only is it not active - it's not there. Thus my original question: Where can I get the iCloud add in for Outlook?

Outlook 11 for Mac sharing Calendar with Outlook 2010 for Windows

I have an Executive user that has a Macbook with Outlook 2011 that shares his calendar with his Administrator using Outloook 2010 for Windows (Exchange 2010). Exec changed his categories last week. The changes do not appear on Admin's calendar.
Exec is sharing calendar with Full / Publisher privs.
When I share my calendar with Admin she sees categories, and colors. Is dynamic, I make a change she immidietly sees it.
When Admin looks at her OWA she does not see changes on Exec's shared calendar.
Help! Thanks. -F.F.F.

Seems this an Exchange-Outlook 2011/2010 mix scenario. Seems Admin even cannot to see the categories changed through OWA, I think the categories have still not updated to mailbox from the Executive user's Outlook 2011. Does it happen when the user and
admin share their calendar with categories in one platform, I mean Outlook in Windows in both side or using OWA?
For the Office for Mac question, please post it to the following forum.

ICloud4 won't configure Outlook 2010 on my 64 bit laptop

configuring outlook in iCloud4 halts with a message "configuration cannot be started due to and unexpected failure" what should i do ?

I believe I may have found the problem and potential fix or workaround for the problem described in my original post.
Windows 7 has a feature in Windows Explorer that will if enabled show a file preview image in the rightmost pane when a file is selected or moused-over. If one selects an Abobe PDF document to launch Adobe Acrobat will launch in a seperate window while the Windows Explorer pane will show a thumbnail sized image of the first page of the PDF document in the Windows Explorer pane. The explorer window may even be behind the Acrobat application so once one is looking at the full document in Acrobat they may not even notice the thumbnail image in Windows Explorer.
On my setup, when this would happen I could edit a PDF document and save the PDF only once, but any further save would fail. Apparently the thumbnail in Windows Explorer is enough to make Acrobat believe the file is already open, or open by another user.
One workaround is that once Adobe Acrobat is launched explicitly look for and close the Windows Explorer showing the PDF thumbnail. One might also accomplish the same by moving the mouse over a different file so the thumbnail of the open PDF is not showing, or to turn off the preview function in Windows 7 Explorer altogether. I haven't yet tried the latter.
Acrobat is the only application on my W7 Pro system that doesn't play well with Windows preview mode. My MS Office apps have no difficulty saving even while showing thumbnails in the preview pane.
I hope this might be helpful to anyone else experiencing this problem.

HELP

Hi Carlos,
This forum is for general questions and feedback related to Outlook for Windows. Since the problematic account can work well in Outlook 2010 with Windows 7 but not in Outlook for Mac 2011, I suggest we can ask a question in
Outlook for Mac 2011 forum for more troubleshooting.
The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us.
Thanks for your understanding.

Configure outlook client for PC not in domain

Hello,
I am hoping someone can assist me with this one. Might be a simple one for some of you :)
We currently have an Exchange 2013 environment and are having issues with users wishing to configure their Outlook client's offsite. These laptops are not part of our domain and they have VPN connectivity and access to our office.
In the past I've worked for organizations where I could establish a VPN connection and then add an Outlook profile by specifying the Exchange server name, typing the user's first and last name (or email) and then clicking on check name. This used to
resolve the FQDN of the exchange server and then successfully add the mailbox.
One thing that I do notice is that when we setup these clients and they are part of the domain it adds properly but the server name looks like the following [email protected]
Is there something wrong with the configuration of our Outlook Anywhere?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated
Willia

I think that would depend on how you're connecting to Exchange. If your Exchange is in theory setup for you to connect to it directly over the internet then it would at least explain your inability to use autodiscover, but you mention having to use a VPN
to connect to it so I'm not sure that's relevant.
Lack of autodiscover or incorrect SSL settings won't prevent you from manually entering details to connect to exchange, you just won't be able to do it without entering the server details and you'll be prompted to confirm the ssl issue.
If the SSL comment in the original post isn't relevant in this case, and you're actually using Outlook Anywhere, then while not perhaps absolutely required it's certainly something you'll want to resolve.
When you try to connect to Exchange, if you try pinging the server name that you're using does it resolve? If not then that's likely the main issue. In an Outlook Anywhere setup then you may need to setup proxy settings to allow Outlook to connect to the
relevant external connection to then reach the Exchange server. When setting up the account, before clicking Check Name or Next go to More Settings, then select the Connection tab. Select the Connect to Microsoft Exchange using HTTP checkbox and then click
Exchange Proxy Settings. Within the proxy settings window you can then setup the relevant http settings to point Outlook at the external interface of your Outlook Anywhere connection, which basically allows Outlook to connect to that, from where it can then
resolve the Exchange server name.
