Conversation view not grouping all related messages - Outlook 2010

Hello, I have 2010 and just started a new job with a new laptop...so the first thing I did was go straight to Outlook to setup my Conversation View, along with all other rules and such I had before.  However, it's not working properly.  First off,
it's not including all my sent messages in conversations...only SOME of the time. 
Second, and more importantly, it's creating more than one Conversation for each group of messages. I tried to include a screenshot below, but it wont let me because I just signed up so I'll describe it.  There are two conversation groups for 'My First
Expense Report' with Brenda.  The first conversation is when she first replied to my message.  The second separate conversation started with my response to her reply, and then her second reply.  These should be grouped together! 
Brenda and I are the only two people in the thread, and the emails happened today.  This is worse than not having conversation view at all, because I'll see a conversation and think all messages are there...but they're not, they're in some other conversation
for some unknown reason.
It's driving me crazy as an avid Outlook user.  This didn't happen to me on the same version in my old job and I'm afraid I'll miss important stuff.  Can anyone help?

Hi,
Since I don't know your detailed view settings, I suggest you exit Outlook first, then start Outlook with the switch "cleanviews":
Press Win + R and type “outlook.exe /cleanviews” in the blank box, then press Enter.
Then re-set the Conversation View to try again:

Additionally, do you use Exchange 2003 or Exchange 2007? There are some known issues with Outlook 2010 & Exchange 2003 or Exchange 2007:

    How to disable the "Reply" not "Reply All" button in Outlook 2010 with GPO
    I need to disable to "Reply" NOT the "Reply All" button/s in Outlook 2010. If possible, then deploy it through GPO also.

    Hi,
    We can disable the "Reply" button by using Control IDs.
    Please first make sure that you have installed the
    Office 2010 Administrative Templates. To disable the "Reply" button, please follow the steps below:
    1. Press Windows key + R to open the Run command, type gpedit.msc and press Enter.
    2. In the Group Policy Object Editor console, expand User Configuration, expand
    Administrative Templates, and then expand Microsoft Outlook 2010.
    3. Expand Disable items in User Interface, click
    Custom, double-click Disable commands, and then click Enabled.
    4. Click Show. In the Show Contents dialog box, enter
    354 (the control ID for “Reply” button) in the Value field, and then click
    OK.
    5. Restart Outlook and you’ll find the “Reply” button is disabled (grayed out).

  • How can I select all "Related Messages"

    When I click on a message the application highlights all related messages in list view.
    I like to select these highlighted messages in one shot and delete or move them. Is there an easy way to select them without going one by one and Command-click selecting them?

    I have also found that if you have other emails, say in the sent folder, you can actually select (command-click) multiple mailboxes on the left pane and it mashes both mailboxes together, and then the 'conversations' have both sent and received emails in that thread.

  • From one of my yahoo groups all the messages come thru appearing from the same person. Why is this?

    I belong to several yahoo groups and use the filters to send them to their respective folders. Lately with one group, all the messages appear to be from the same person, which I know is not true from looking internally. I've looked on my providers site at my email, at at the groups site, they are that way so it's happening when it comes into Thunderbird. Running version 24.6.0.
    Thanks Dwight from WI

    They aren't in the address book. Anyway I went into the config editor and set something to false and it took care of the problem. Don't remember what it was. Something with "Show" in it.
    Thanks for your time!

    How can I change the background of a running webpage on my own. Example Facebook I want to change its background color from white to black just in my view, not for all. Cause I really hate some site with white background because as I read for an hour it aches my eyes but not on those with darker background color.

    You can use the NoSquint extension to set font sizes (text/page zoom) and text colors on web pages.

  • Apple mail not showing all the messages?

    In Apple mail, for my icloud account, I have some mailboxes which show the wrong number of messages, it shows too few.
    As an example, a mailbox contains 150 messages, but apple mail reports there are only 146.
    I rebuilt the mailbox and let apple mail do its thing. In the activity window I can see there are 150 messages. Yet, once apple mail has finished rebuilding the mailbox, it still tells me there are 146 messages. What's going wrong? Why would apple mail not show all the messages while in the activity window it clearly shows it knows there are 150?

    Solved!
    This was too weird to be real. Apple mail does not show messages it believes to be duplicates, and buy, does it make big mistakes in deciding what are duplicate messages and what not! Some of my mailboxes had over 100 "duplicates" not showing according to apple mail.
    I found a solution thanks to this topic:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/18265121#18265121
    defaults delete com.apple.mail AlwaysShowDuplicates
    does yield an error in 10.8.2 ( Domain (com.apple.mail) not found. Defaults have not been changed. )
    defaults write com.apple.mail AlwaysShowDuplicates -bool true
    Does work brilliantly though!

  • I want my Mail to not make a thread out of all related messages into one. I hate it.

    With my new Mac came the new Mail. Now I hate it. It puts everything on to a single thread of messages. And if you open the thread and there is more that one unread message, you can probably skip one of the unread.
    I exactly what happens in GMail.
    Does somebody know how to undo this?
    Thanks.

  • Mail conversation view not working with Listserv

    Hello,
        For the most part the conversation view in Apple Mail works great.  The one place it does not work is for a listserv I am part of.  I get a lot of emails form this group, they all come from the same address, so it is the same address in the To: field, the From: field is different for each message.  I expected all the messages to be grouped by the same subject line but they are not.  Other emails that I get that are NOT from a listserv group perfectly, so I feel it has to be something specific to getting emails from a listserv. 

    Update......Somehow Mail sent 1/46 pending messages.....weird.

  • List view not showing all podcasts

    Guys, I have the annoying problem that podcast management by itunes and the podcast app are F'ed up.
    Not too lobg ago I experienced my ipad greying out most podcasts that were downloaded and on my ipad, for no reason at all. it took me 2 days fiddling with settings and ended up having to set every sync to "on" and set donwloading to "all" and "keep all podcasts"
    Now I'm experiencing the problem that the "list" view in podcast app, is not showing all podcasts, but the "thumbnail" view is (as far as I can tell...). Why is this and how can I fix it to make sure both views show everything?
    I'm running iOS 7.0.6 and iTunes 11.1.5

    Hey there sporry,
    It sounds like your Podcasts app is not showing your library correctly in the List view but Thumbnail looks ok. I recommend the troubleshooting in the article named:
    iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1702
    Restart the app
    Close the app and open it again.
    Restart your device
    Turn the device off and on.
    Update your device software and your apps
    Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
    Update your apps:
    Open the App Store and tap Updates.
    If updates are available, tap Update All.
    If asked, enter your Apple ID password. The updates will download and install.
    You might need a Wi-Fi connection to update some apps.
    Install another app from the App Store
    If your installed app won't open, download and install a free app that isn't on your iOS device. This should reset your Apple ID authorization.
    Remember to use the same Apple ID that you used to download the app that you're having issues with.
    Reinstall the app
    Remove the app from your device and reinstall it. Remember that deleting an app also deletes its data.
    Delete the app.
    Press the Home button.
    Go to the App Store and download the app again.
    Wait for the app to download, then open it from the Home screen.
    If the download stops, you can resume it.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Style not receiving all email messages

    I recently changed mail-servers. Neither the current nor the previous mail server are in house. We route our in-house email through MS Exchange Server. We do not run BB Enterprise Server so I have set up my BB Style to go directly to the external mail server. I am using MS Outlook 2010 on my desktop computer.
    My BB Style is not receiving all the emails coming to me. Some emails come through our MS Exchange Server but not to my BB. Other emails are received both on my device and desktop.
    Any ideas why this is happening.
    Barry
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Referring back to Post 2 in this thread -- if your email server (the one facing the Internet, with which BIS interacts) is capable of reconciling with the BB (via BIS) items deleted on the server, then you have no choice in the matter, given what you've now been told.
    If you absolutely must retain all items on your BB, then you would I suppose need to set up an auto forwarder that sends everything you receive in your Outlook client out to a different email address. Then you integrate that to your BB so that you can keep that library of items on your BB. You, of course, cannot use those items for any useful purpose (e.g., if you reply, it'll be coming from this secondary email address), but at least you'd have them on your BB.
    What your IT person told you is, however, quite unusual indeed. MS Exchange is intended to be a post office and mailbox containing entity, and has a ton of other power as well. I've never actually heard before of anyone using it in this manner, requiring that the client app remove items from the server (encouragement is always in place, via mailbox size quotas and such...but the requirement is rather unusual in my experience). That requirement would seem to make your MS Exchange environment function much more like a POP/SMTP environment, negating all of the power of MS Exchange, and thereby causing me to think that you are not getting the value from that environment that it offers. But, to each his own!
    Good luck!

  • Today all of our outlook 2010 and 2007 clients are repeatedly getting asked for their password. This problem just appeared today at both of our locations with exchange 2010 server.

    Users on the local network can open outlook and it immediately connects and they see their e-mail.  After a minute or two a box will popup asking for their password.    Even if it is entered correctly it keeps asking over and over.  Closing
    outlook and re-opening it solves the problem but only for a minute.   Remote users using HTTPS over OWA to connect can't get their outlook clients to connect at all.   This does not have any effect on ios devices just outlook 2010 and older.  

    I would suggest that some virtual directories configured to use Basic Authentication. EWS, OAB or Autodiscover for instance.
    Also check Outlook Anywhere configuration. If it was changed from NTLM to Basic it could cause such credential's prompts.
    But if you believe that configuration wasn't changed recently then another possible reason for this behavior could be NTLM bottleneck:

  • How to export an Address Book group to Windows 7 Outlook 2010?

    Hello.
    I have recently installed Windows 7 (64-bit) on VMware Fusion 3.1.3 to my Mac Pro (OS X 10.6.8).
    I have a 30-day trial of Outlook 2010 and I'm trying to get my Mac's address book contacts over to to Outlook in an Outlook-digestible form.
    Unfortunately, none of the solutions that I've tried (e.g., converting to an Excel spreadsheet or using a 2003 program called ABE) work.
    Do any of you have a solution that will definitely work so that all of my contacts will go into Outlook and populate the correct fields on the first go-round?
    Thanks for your help.

    Well, I figured out a way to do it.
    I used "Automator" and created a workflow to take all the contacts in one of my groups and batch convert them to .vcf files.  THen save them to a folder on my desktop.
    I then launched WIndows 7 (via VMware Fusion) and dragged the folder with the .VCF files to the Windows desktop.
    Launched MS Outlook.
    Selected "Contacts."
    Opened the .VCF folder.
    Selected all of the .vcf files in the folder.
    Dragged the files into Outlooks contacts window. And I was done.
    Try it and see how it works for you.

  • Ovi does not sync some info with Outlook 2010

    I have been struggling with syncronization issues between my Nokia N97 and Outlook 2010 for nearly a year! With the latest Ovi Suite version 2.2.0.245, finally some issues are solved but still others persist. In this thread I would like to mention that Ovi synchronization does not sync the Contacts information such as Company and E-mail.
    After having paid so much money and waiting nearly for a year to have my "smart" phone to be able to sync with my computer, Nokia guys, please, is this such a hard thing to do?!?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I have a brand new Nokia N8  (N8-00) and I also have a new PC running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit which I'm installing Nokia apps on for the first time..  I also run Office 2010.
    I have a Nokia N86 that I wanted to transfer all my data from, and was going to use the data transfer feature built into the phones, but persevered with this problem and here is my solution. (thanks to the info above and comments in other threads)
    I installed PC Suite 7.1.36 as I prefer this to the dreaded Ovi Suite, and got my data into Outlook 2010 from my N86.  But of course this version of PC Suite doesn't support the N8 so I had to install Ovi Suite 3.0.0.290.  I used this to update the operating system of the phone, and applied all other updates apart from two of the game updates which are failing.  (a problem for next week!)
    I then hit the dreaded sit and do nothing issue when trying to sync my contacts, calendar etc!
    I uninstalled PC Suite 7.1.36 and downloaded PC Suite version 7.1.30.9 from rapidshare.com and sure enough this supports the N8 and I was able to get my data onto my N8!
    I just have to remember NOT to update my PC Suite until the problem with Ovi is sorted!   So I will use Ovi to keep my phone software up to date, and PC Suite my data.
    I hope this helps others with the same problem, there seem to be quite a few of you!   Please note that I am using the 64 bit version of Win 7 and so far have not hit any issues, although this was reported otherwise in this thread.   In other words, copy this procedure at your own risk!  ;-)

  • I need to sync notes on my ipad with outlook 2010.   Please help!

    I just got the orginal ipad and need to sync it with notes in outlook 2010. I now see that 2010 is not supported! Is there an app which could bridge the gap? Or will apple be supporting 2010 soon?

    You need to restore your iPad from iTunes.
    Start iTunes.
    Plug in your iPad using the USB cable.
    Click on the iPad in the left hand column under "Devices".
    In the "Summary" tab, there are options to Back up, Update and Restore.
    Choose Restore, choose the backup and let it run.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If your old iPad was capable of receiving data on the go, without wifi, then you have a SIM installed. Best to check anyway. You need either the tool supplied in the box, or the end of a paper clip to open the tray
