Corruption of Autocomplete

Hi,
I have had the OCFO installed on a number of machines. Everything is working fine. However, when the connectore is installed, the autocomplete function on Outlook gets corrupted. Once the connector is uninstalled and the autocomplete needs to be activated again on Outlook.
Is there a way by which the autocomplete on Outlook does not get corrupted while installing the connector.
Looking for help

If you don't need to currupt a specific block, open a
Hexeditor and play a litte.

  • Outlook autocomplete cache stops working for multiple users at the same time

    Hi there
    Ever since we upgraded our Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013 we have had problems with the autocomplete cache in Outlook 2010.
    We have 700 users and about once per week I get a call about the autocomplete cache. A few users are on cached mode, but most use online mode. The problem appears on both, but it can usually be corrected by /cleanautocompletecache.
    Granted, the autocomplete cache gets corrupted sometimes, but it seems to happen a lot for us. I have noticed that often more than one user experiences the problem at the same time, and, since the problem starting after upgrading Exchange, I suspect that
    the issue is with Exchange and not Outlook. Yesterday three users complained about the cache at the same time.
    I know how to get a broken cache going again - that is not the issue. The issue is keeping this from happening so often.
    Anyone out there able to help?
    Thanks!
    /Anders

    Hi ,
    Based on my knowledge , when you tried to send an email to a recipient in the same exchange organisation then the recipient address will be resolved in to legacy dn value and then that email will be delivered to destination mailbox by pointing towards to
    that legacy dn value.
    For the external recipients exchange user the smtp address to get it delivered.
    For your issue :
    Based upon the NDR message , we need to covert those values in to x500 format and add it to respective recipient mailbox as an x500 address.Then These erorrs will happen if the x500 value of the destination recipient is not available on it's maibox
    and that would be the cause of the NDR for most of the times.Some time as you said autocomplete cache would get corrupted on the client end but it is very rare.
    How to convert NDR to x500 address format :
    http://msexchangeguru.com/2012/03/15/x500/
    How to avoid getting such kind of NDR'S :
    https://www.simple-talk.com/sysadmin/exchange/exchange-e-mail-addresses-and-the-outlook-address-cache/
    In case if you don't want the users to use the autocomplete cache when composing the new emails :
    In group policy we can use the  office templates to disable the below mentioned option.
    1.use autocomplete to suggest the names ---> this option will comes under the advanced settings on the outlook client.
    In case if you don't want the users to use the autocomplete cache when composing the new emails as well as if you wanted to delete that autocomplete then you need to choose one more option along with the first one.
    1.Empty autocomplete cache.
    Please reply me if anyhitng is unclear.

  • AutoComplete not working properly in Outlook 2013

    The AutoComplete List is a feature which displays suggestions for names and e-mail addresses as you begin to type them. These suggestions are possible matches from a list of names and e-mail addresses from the e-mail messages that you have
    sent.
    AutoComplete is a convenient feature when we send an email message, if it suddenly stops working, it becomes a real pain to the sender. If you encountered this problem, you can use the steps below to troubleshoot it and make it work again.
    1. Check if the AutoComplete feature is turned on.
    By default, the AutoComplete feature is enabled. If it isn’t working, of course the first thing to check is whether the feature is enabled. To check it, go to
    File tab> Options > Mail, scroll down to the
    Send Messages section and make sure the “Use Auto-Complete List to suggest names when typing in the To, CC, and Bcc lines” option is selected.
    2. Check if AutoComplete works in OWA
    Since Outlook 2010 and Outlook 2013 doesn’t store nicknames in .NK2 file, it stores the autocomplete cache in the user’s mailbox and caches to a local cache file. So, the OWA uses the same autocomplete list, we can log into OWA and check if AutoComplete
    works.
    If it works in OWA, it means the autocomplete list is OK. The problem lies in the Outlook client side. If the autocomplete doesn’t even work in OWA, the autocomplete list could be corrupt.
    3. An Add-in may cause AutoComplete to not work correctly.
    Problematic add-in may cause a number of issues in Outlook. If an add-in cause Outlook to crash, the AutoComplete lists could be affected and become corrupt.
    To determine if a problematic add-in is the culprit, go to File > Options > Add-ins, disable all add-ins and then check if the problem continues. If the problem is gone with all add-in disabled, we can try re-enabling add-ins one-by-one to isolate
    the problematic add-in:
    (1) Start Outlook.
    (2) On the File tab, click Options,
    then click Add-Ins.
    (3) In the bottom of the Outlook Options dialog box, make sure the
    Manage drop-down shows COM Add-ins, and then click
    Go.
    (4) In the COM Add-Ins dialog box, select to enable an add-in and then click
    OK.
    (5) Repeat step 4 until you have all of the required Outlook functionality and Outlook remains stable.
    If Outlook becomes unstable after re-enabling a particular COM add-in, disable that COM add-in and then contact the add-in vendor to see if they have an updated version that is more stable with Outlook.
    For detailed steps about this, you can refer to the following KB article and look at the “Re-enabling COM add-ins one-by-one” section.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2934538
    4. Reset the AutoComplete list.
    If AutoComplete is enabled but still not working in OWA, it could be that the corruption within the AutoComplete list is causing auto-complete not to work correctly. You’ll need to manually delete the AutoComplete list to fix the issue.
    Note: You will lose all addresses stored in AutoComplete.
    If there is only one or several AutoComplete entries are corrupt, we can remove them by clicking ‘X’ or pressing
    Delete key.
    If all entries are corrupt, we can use one of the following two methods to delete the AutoComplete lists:
    Method 1: Use the Empty Auto-complete List button.
    1. Open Outlook.
    2. On the File tab, click Options > Mail
    tab.
    3. Under Send Messages, click Empty Auto-Complete List.
    It’s also recommended to untick the “Use Auto-Complete List to suggest names when typing in the To, Cc, and Bcc lines”.
    4.  Restart Outlook and tick the “Use Auto-Complete List to suggest names when typing in the To, Cc, and Bcc lines” box again.
    Test if the issue persists.
    Method 2: Use the /CleanAutoCompleteCache switch.
    1. Exit Outlook.
    2. Press Windows key + R to open the Run command.
    3. Type Outlook.exe /CleanAutoCompleteCache in the Run box and press
    Enter.
    5. Reach the maximum number of AutoComplete entries
    Outlook limits the number of entries that you can save in the AutoComplete list. If you find some names unexpectedly removed from your autocomplete list, you may consider this situation.
    Outlook 2013 has a limit of 1000 entries for the AutoComplete list. After you reach this limit, Outlook uses an internal algorithm to determine the best names to remove from the list. It does this based on a usage weighting. To avoid
    this situation, you can use one of the following two methods:
    Method 1: You can manually remove some AutoComplete entries that you no longer use. We can remove them by clicking ‘X’ or pressing
    Delete key as we mentioned in portion 4.
    Method 2: You can change the limit for the AutoComplete list by modifying the registry.
    Because this configuration is untested, we do not recommended it. If you have a larger AutoComplete list, you could also lose a larger number of cached entries if your AutoComplete cache becomes unusable because of corruption. Given this disclaimer,
    you can use the following registry data to increase the AutoComplete list limit in 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.
    1. Exit Outlook.
    2. Start Registry Editor. Press the Windows key, type regedit and then press
    Enter.
    3. Add the following value:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Outlook\AutoNameCheck
    DWORD: MaxNickNames
    Value: Type the number in
    decimal form.
    Note: Try increasing the limit by only a marginal amount to test the new limit. For example, to create a 20 percent increase in the limit in Outlook 2013, you would specify 1200 for the
    MaxNickNames value.
    4. Exit Registry Editor and restart Outlook.
    More information
    To avoid the risk of losing your AutoComplete list entries, it’s recommended to back up them regularly. In Outlook 2013, the AutoComplete list entries are stored in a hidden message in your default message store. To back up the entries, please follow
    these steps:
    1. Exit Outlook, and then close Outlook Web Access or Outlook Web App (OWA) on all workstations that are connected to your mailbox.
    2. Download and install MFCMAPI here:
    http://mfcmapi.codeplex.com
    3. Run mfcmapi.exe.
    4. Click Session > Logon.
    5. Select your profile, and then click OK.
    6. Select the data file that use your email address as the filename, and then double-click it.
    7. Expand Root Mailbox, and then expand IPM_SUBTREE.
    8. Find Inbox and right-click on it, and then click Open Associated Content Table.
    9. In the newly opened MFCMAPI window, under the Subject column, right-click the item that has the subject
    IPM.Configuration.Autocomplete, and then click Export Message.
    10. In the Save Message To File window, select
    MSG file (UNICODE) from the drop-down list, and then click
    OK.
    11. Select a folder location to which you want to save the message, and then click
    Save.

  • Exporting AutoComplete from Office 2010 issue

    Scenario:
    New Computer - Running Outlook 2010.
    Old Computer - Running Outlook 2010.
    Both using Office 365
    AutoComplete I have been made aware is part of the .pst file.
    I copied over and everything was fine, other than all AutoComplete group entries being corrupt - Emails were bouncing back when sending emails to groups created.
    Unaware that I could delete this group individually, I deleted ALL of AutoComplete by using the /CleanAutoComplete switch.
    User has been using Outlook for a few weeks and now wishes for me to restore all the AutoComplete entries.
    I still have remote access to the old computer.
    My query to my scenario is: What is the best solution to restore AutoComplete?
    Would it be to copy over a new .pst file from the Old Computer which still has all of the AutoComplete entries?
    Is there a way of restoring them while retaining the new AutoComplete entries the user has accumulated since?

    Hi,
    Outlook 2010 stores the auto-complete list as a hidden message (IPM.Configuration.Autocomplete) in your primary message store. To restore the auto-complete entries, we can use the MFCMAPI tool. For detailed steps, please have a look at the
    following KB article. See the "How to export the auto-complete mailbox message" and "How to import the auto-complete mailbox message" sections.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2679568
    "Is there a way of restoring them while retaining the new AutoComplete entries the user has accumulated since?"
    -- If you don't remove the existing IPM.Configuration.Autocomplete message, the new autocomplete entries should be retained, but, you may get duplicate entries if there are some same entries in both
    IPM.Configuration.Autocomplete messages.

  • I am not seeing placeholders for missing or corrupt images. Is there an option to turn these on or off, or does Firefox not display these by default?

    I am a web designer. I use FF as my default browser for everything--including work. When viewing pages containing broken image links or corrupted images, no placeholders show to indicate the problem.
    I have to use another browser to check my work. Placeholders are such basic elements that they should appear without having to switch browsers or search for options.
    Thinking I may have accidentally unset an option for viewing image placeholders, I have looked everywhere in the options (including Web Dev tools) and have searched support. I have found absolutely nothing to solve my issue.
    Firefox--whatever version I had installed prior to a computer reformat and browser reinstall--was doing the same, so please don't suggest a FF reinstall or reset as a possible solution.

    In order to change your Firefox Configuration please do the following steps :
    # In the [[Location bar autocomplete|Location bar]], type '''about:config''' and press '''Enter'''. The about:config "''This might void your warranty!''" warning page may appear.
    # Click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''' to continue to the about:config page.
    #Search for browser.display.show_image_placeholders and make sure it is set to true.
    That was a configuration that was from a very early on version of Firefox, so if this does not make a change there is more:
    What is interesting is that there is also a css that allows the styling of the broken images: [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/-moz-force-broken-image-icon]
    This was an inter sting hack for the personal profile in Firefox : [http://megashare.altervista.org/blog/2012/08/enable-broken-image-placeholders-in-firefox/]
    Please post back with your results, thank you!

  • Artist does not exist in library, but appears in Autocomplete--how to fix?

    I had an artist name appearing in all caps in my library. I went through and found every instance of her name in the library, and carefully pasted the proper capitalization. Her name in caps no longer exits in my library at all--yet when I try to fill in a new song with her name as artist, it ALWAYS shows up in all caps, and won't let me revert.
    I've tried the advice followed in these threads:

    https://discussions.apple.com/message/5952472#5952472
    The general consensus for how to deal with this is:
    A) Enter gibberish character at the beginning so you don't trigger the autofill, then delete when done, OR
    B) Copy the correctly spelled/capitalized version and paste it in.
    Both of those work, but they are VERY tedious and time consuming.
    They essentially defeat the purpose of autocomplete.
    I have double and triple checked. The artist name in all caps IS NOT anywhere in my library, but it STILL appears as the first autocomplete suggestion, and it won't let me edit the letters properly to be lowercase.
    Is this come kind of Cache?
    iTunes Library corruption?

  • History autocomplete not working

    just updated the browser to the most recent release. my history autocomplete is not working and i cannot scroll down the location bar to see the sites i have visited. i have my privacy settings set to remember my bookmarks and history, just want to know what i can do about this issue? i had gotten used to only typing a few letters to reach my most visited sites. thanks

    Same problem here. I have Firefox on several machines and OS (XP and Ubuntu [edit: Win 7 too]). However, the bookmarks file is the same in each.
    None of the location bars suggest (autocomplete) features work now. I tried deleting the places.sqlite (bookmarks) file and the bar began working again, but all my bookmarks had lost their "[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Favicon favicons]". When I replaced that places.sqlite file with my original (including the favicons) the location bar again ceased working.
    I highly doubt that the upgrade to 3.6.11 would corrupt every places.sqlite file I have on multiple computers. That leads me to believe that there is some kind of bug in 3.6.11 that messes up the location bar (especially if your bookmarks contain favicons). Hope some kind of patch can be found.
    Edit: Just updated Firefox on Windows 7 with same results. I even backed up the places.sqlite (so it could not be corrupted) file before updating then used the backup file when the location bar failed to work. Even restoring with the backup file didn't work - again, this can not be due to a corruption issue.
    Finally, I noticed that one (only one) of the autocomplete bookmarks I had selected prior to updating FF in Ubuntu was actually retained. Is there some other file where autocomplete data is held? I wish I knew why that one bookmark is still able autocomplete while all the others will not (note: this is only in the Ubuntu install all other FF installs (in XP/Win7) bookmarks will not autocomplete.

    I think that this is related to some of my project pages having accented characters in their name, as all the ????? in the filenames corresponds to just those files, and they are the corrupted ones.

    Hi,
    It happened only to that project, and I actually fixed it by hex editing the project. The problem was related to then enconding and size of the filenames in the zip file, I used accented filenames with (If I remember correctly) UTF8 encoding. Some of the characters used 2 bytes to represent the filename, but only 1 was accountedd in the zip headers. I just added one to those size fields of the zip headers, and the it opened just fine.

  • I cannot get firefox to delete all of my browsing history, specifically form and autocomplete information. Tried going through the steps multiple times.

    I have tried to clear all of my data history in firefox because some very sensitive information from filling out college forms and whatnot has been saved and is being used in autocomplete. Because of a bad wireless company, our network has to be "unsecured" to work, and I do not want anyone getting a hold of extremely important personal information. I have gone into settings and tried clearing the cache, using private browsing, deleting all past history, etc... but firefox won't delete any of my history, even browsing. Please help! Thank you.

    Rename or delete formhistory.sqlite (plus formhistory.sqlite-journal and formhistory.sqlite.corrupt and formhistory.dat, if they exist) in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] in case there is a problem with the file that stores the "Saved Form" data.
    This will remove all saved form data, so you may want to rename formhistory.sqlite to formhistory.sqlite.sav or move the file to another folder in case you need to recover some saved data.

  • List view in iCal on my iPod touch is corrupted

    The 'list view' seems to be all wonky in Calendar on my iPod touch.
    The dates for a given day that's displayed don't make sense:
    i.e. Sunday Oct. 27 2030 followed by Saturday July 14 2001 followed by Tuesday Jan. 16 2001 are listed in consecutive order instead of today, tomorrow and next day (with correct dates).
    Also, the 'events' given for each day listed don't make sense and are often duplicated.
    The 'day' and 'month' views however, seem to be ok and not corrupted. The 'list' field in the month view also seems fine ?
    Has anybody experienced this ? Very frustrating, since I like the list view.
    I make most of my entries/changes to iCal on our main desktop (iMac 24") then sync. to my iPod. The list view seems ok on the desktop.
    Any help greatly appreciated.
    ps. not sure if the problem corresponded with an upgrade of the Ipod software to OS 3.1 from 2.x....

    Here is a discription of the problem. Please consider that some of the wording might not be correct, as I do have to translate the error message from German into English.

    All apps, like Bridge, Photoshop, Lightroom, etc. are installed and work just fine. So no problem here. I seem however unable to redownload the desktop app (in order to reinstall). As stated above the provided link inside the desktop app itself is coruppted and within the (online) web-based download centre (user logged in) I am only adviced to use the desktop app. This is a dead end and I do not know what to make of this error, let alone solving it. Please help!

    I am sorry Romsinha but this doesn't really help.
    I already restarted the desktop app and while I am obviously online and connected the problem (error message) remains the same. Information within the "home" tap is recieved/loaded  (little blue spinning wheel) stating that various apps recently have been updated. Yet the same loading wheel within the "apps" tap results in an error. My best guess is that some internal link within the app is corrupted, leading to a source on a server that can not be reached.
    UPDATE
    I clean uninstalled adobe creative cloud as discribed in the article you provided (using the cleaner tool) and even uninstalled the browser plugin. After downloading and reinstalling creative cloud the problem however remains the same. "Apps" tap still shows the same problem. "Home" tap now displays the following:

  • Questions on Logical corruption

    Hello all,
    My DB version is 10g+ - 11.2.0.3 on various different OS.  We are in process of deploying RMAN on our system and i am having a hard time on testing/get a grip around the whole logical corruption... from what i understand(please correct me if i am wrong)
    1. I can have a check logical syntax in my backup cmd(and that will check both physical and logical corruption)...But how much overhead dose it have, Seems to be anywhere from 14-20% overhead on backup time. 
    2. Leaving the maxCorrupt to default(which i beleive is 0)...if there is a physical corruption my backup will break and i should get an email/alert saying backup broke...
    3.  Would this be same for logical corruption too ??, would RMAN report logical corrution right away like physical corruption would do?  Or do i have to query v$database_block_corruption after backup is done to figure out if i have logical corruption
    4. how would one test logical corruption ?? (besides the NO_LOGGING operation, as our DB have force logging turned on)
    5. Is it a good practice to have check logical corruption in your daily backup? ( i guess i have no problems for it if DB are small, but some of our DB are close to 50TB+ and i think the check logical is going to increase the backup time significantly)
    6. If RMAN cannot repair logical corruption, then why would i want to do the check logical (besides knowing i have a problem and the end user have to fix it by reload the data...assuming its a table not index that is corrupt)..
    7. any best practices when it comes for checking logical corruption for DB in 50+ TB
    I have actually searched on here and on google, but i could not find any way to reproducing logical corrpution(maybe there is none), but i wanted to ask the community about it....
    Thank you in advance for your time.

    You might want to google "fractured block" for information about it without RMAN.  You can simulate that by writing a C program to flip some bits, although technically that would be physical corruption.  Also see Dealing with Oracle Database Block Corruption in 11g | The Oracle Instructor
    One way to simulate is to use nologging operations and then try to recover (this is why force logging is used, so google corruption force logging).  Here's an example: Block corruption after RMAN restore and recovery !!! | Practical Oracl Hey, no simulate, that's for realz!
    Somewhere in the recovery docs it explains... aw, I lost my train of thought, you might get better answers with shorter questions, or one question per thread, for this kind of fora.  Oh yeah, somewhere in the docs it explains that RMAN doesn't report the error right away, because later in the recovery stream it may decide the block is newly formatted and there wasn't really a problem.
    This really is dependent on how much data is changing and how.  If you do many nologging operations or run complicated standby, you can run into this more.  There's a trade-off between verifying everything and backup windows, site requirements control everything.  That said, I've found only paranoid DBA's check enough, IT managers often say "that will never happen."  Actually, even paranoid DBA's don't check enough, the vagaries of manual labor and flaky equipment can overshadow anything.

  • You click on a .pdf file; Firefox won't load and says "not a pdf or corrupted," but all other browsers open it normally

    Clicking on a link to a .pdf file in Firefox results in Firefox displaying the box "Format error: not a .pdf or corrupted"
    This has happened for several years with any number of web pages. A link to the latest event is below, but it typically happens almost every time I click on a link to a .pdf

    Upgrade your browser to Firefox 9 and check
    * getfirefox.com

    Did you try to open teh fle by double-clicking its icon? If the file was made with an older version of Office, you may get that message. Try opeing PP and, from its "File" menu, see if you can open the ppt. I've foundthat often gets around that message and then yo ucan save the file from the newer version.
    If that doesn't work, consider asking in the Microsoft Office: Mac forums here:
    Office for Mac forums
    PowerPoint is not an Apple product and it seems a lot of people around here avoid Office.
