Exchange 2010 - Outlook can only open 8 other users' calendars

I have a company that I moved to Exchange 2010 from Exchange 2003 recently. The old Exchange 2003 server has been removed from the organization. They have 30 mailboxes on a single server. Everything has been running smoothly but I have just discovered an issue.
In this office there is one person who coordinates meetings, decides who uses what conference room for a given meeting, etc. She has full access to all of the other users' mailboxes. With Exchange 2003 she could access all of the other users' calendars simultaneously and would view them in overlay mode in Outlook 2003 and/or Outlook 2007.
With Exchange 2010 she can only view the first 8 calendars she clicks on. If she tries to open a 9th calendar Outlook responds with the error message "The set pf folders could not be opened."
I don't believe it to be a rights issue as she can open any 8 calendars upon first running Outlook. To access any others she has to uncheck one or more of the calendars previously selected, exit Outlook, restart Outlook and select different users calendars.
This is only happening with Exchange 2010 - I've tested it on my Exchange 2007 server and another client's Exchange 2003 server and one can open as many other users calendars as there are.
Is this a known limitation of Exchange 2010 or a new bug? Any workarounds?

I'm betting that you have met the Exchange 2010 throttling policy......
Take a read through this post please, the section on throttling:

  • Exchange 2010 resource mailbox automatically opening along with user email account

    I've created a number of resource mailboxes for conference rooms, however one of them continuously opens in my Outlook profile. Deleting the profile doesn't seem to help, and it follows me around (it does it in my local Outlook 2010 profile, as well as my
    Outlook 2013 profile in our Citrix environment).
    Right-clicking the mailbox and selecting Close presents a box saying, "This group of folders is assicated with an email account. To remove the account, click the File Tab, and on the Info tab, click Account Settings. Select the e-mail account, and then
    click Remove."
    Unfortunately the profile is not configured to open this account, it's configured to only open my account (a domain admin).  I've also gone into the settings of my account in Outlook and it is not set to open the resource mailbox as an additional mailbox
    on the Advanced tab, so I'm not sure where it's getting this setting.
    Since the issue seems to be unrelated to the actual Outlook profile, I looked at both mailbox objects within the Exchange Management Console and can find nothing in either object that would be instructing Outlook to open both mailboxes.
    Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    Seems like it's auto-mapped to the account. Run Remove-mailboxpermissions against it, hopefully it will 'refresh' the settings. If it still doesn't work, check the msExchDelegateListLink for the resource mailbox.

  • Hello! How can i setup and what to enable that my secretary has my shared calendar on her Iphone and that she can edit it? We are on Exchange 2010, Outlook 2010, Iphone 4s. Can it be done through some app? Thank you!

    Hello! How can i setup and what to enable that my secretary has my shared calendar on her Iphone and that she can edit it? We are on Exchange 2010, Outlook 2010, Iphone 4s. Can it be done through some app? Thank you! I'm trying to avoid creating my exchange activesync account on her Iphone and then sync only my calendar.

    Thank you for your time. I'm trying to avoid that because she can then simply turn on mail syncronization and then she could read my mail. Another reason is our password policy, that enforces changing our windows logon password every 90 days. Of course changing windows logon passwords demands changing exchange account logon info (password) on Iphone. I have read somwhere that there was an app but it was removed from app store. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

  • Exchange 2010 Outlook search can not find messages older than 1 year

    Hello,
    I have an exchange 2010 sp2 server. One of my users complains that Outlook search can not find any message older than 1 year. He have all his 5 year mails in the mailbox, but looks like search engine cant recognise them :( 
    Any thoughts? thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Please verify that indexing is complete in Outlook:
    1. In Outlook, click in the Search box.
    2. Click the Search tab, click Search Tools, and then click Indexing Status.
    3. When the Indexing Status dialog appears, you should see the following:
    Outlook has finished indexing all of your items.
    0 items remaining to be indexed.
    Besides, please use the Search-Mailbox cmdlet to check if you can get messages older than one year in this user mailbox.
    Best regards,

  • ITunes tells me "Could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"  I can locate it and all my other music, but can only open one song at a time.  How do I set it to open all my music whenever I want it?

    iTunes tells me my song selection: "Could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"  I can locate it and all my other music, but can only open one song at a time.  How do I set it to open all my music whenever I want?
    Message was edited by: Woildbill

    I just spent several hours dealing with this when switching to a new PC. It was extremely frustrating as I knew my files were on my external HD but no matter how many times I copied my old iTunes folder over the files were still missing...because dummy me had forgotten to "unhide folders" on my new PC and my old files were actually stored in a hidden folder created long long ago.
    This is how I did it on Windows 7 with iTunes 10
    1. Look in iTunes Advanced Preferences to see where iTunes is saving files. (Edit, Preferences, Advanced)
         Example: C:/Users/Woildbill/My Music/iTunes/Music
    2. Ensure you are able to see hidden files - Control Panel, Folder Option, View, Show Hidden Files
    3. Use Your Computer's Search Function to Locate the Missing File (Start, Search, type name of song - I started my search in "My Music" folder but be sure to expand to entire Computer if not found right away)
    4. In Search Results, right-click found folder and select properties. This will tell you where the file is actually stored.
    5. Use Windows Explorer (right-click start) to navigate to the location of the file. It is likley your other missing files are in the same location.
    6. In Windows Explorer, copy the newly located files to the iTumes location from Step 1 and everything should work again.
    Hope this helps!

  • Outlook connector - how can I open other users calendars at startup?

    Hello!
    How can I open a list of other users calendars at startup (outlook with Oracle outlook connector software installed)?
    Is it possible?
    Regards,
    Konstantin.

    Question:
    Were you able to solve this issue? I too would like to have the ability to automatically open other users' calendar when Outlook loads.
    I did find one unreliable workaround is this; I am able to add a link of the other users' calendar on the shortcut bar. This way, when a user logs on, s/he can click on the link to get to other's calendars.
    However, I say its unreliable because every once in a while, I get the error message "Unable to display the folder. Microsoft Outlook could not access the specified folder location. The entry Id passed in does not refer to a valid object."
    To resolve this, I must go back to files -> open -> Other user's folders. Open the calendar before it works agin.

  • Can't open someones others calendar with Outlook Connector

    Hi,
    I can't open someones others calendar from within Outlook Connector. Outlook 2003 complains: Your profile is not configured to .....
    What could be the reason and what's a possible solution ? I can open my calendar on the server, with the Calendar Client, I can open someones calendar, also with the Webclient.
    Regs
    Eric

    Strange - I just configured 3 users with shared calendars, all running Office 20043/Outlook. This works fine, and all are able to watch each others calendar when the set up a meeting.
    To be able to fully read another users calendar, I suppose the calendar owner must grant you rights to modify on behalf of the him?

  • "Resend" option is not working for specific user. "The Operation Failed" Exchange 2010 Outlook 2013

    Hi Everybody. I have a weird one for you.
    I have a user that gets an "operation failed" message whenever trying to use the "resend" option on any email (It's the one right under recall). I had tested up and down on her machine. Exchange 2010 Outlook 2013
    Ran in safe mode, recreated her profile, disabled virus scanning, repaired office. (weird, the font just changed sizes on me)
    After all of this I tested on other computers, other users seem to be able to "resend" just fine. However her account does not work on any computer I try, internal or external to the network.
    It looks more like a profile issue.
    She's a very active archivist, so she only has 486MB of space used by her mailbox.
    It's well under quota.
    It's been really puzzling me.
    MCSE 2003, Exchange. MCTS Vista, 7. Administrator of awful, neglected website http://timssims.net

    Hi Timssims,
    Since there is only one user in the org has this issue, it seems an issue on the Outlook client side.
    I suggest asking Outlook Forum for help so that we can get more professional suggestions.
    For your convenience:
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/home?forum=outlook
    However I also have some suggestions for your reference:
    1. If this issue occur on Cached Mode, I suggest turning to Online Mode for testing.
    2. Please also paste the detailed error message if "operation failed" is not the
    complete information.
    3. If still not works after perform operations above (including suggestions from Outlook Forum), I suggest re-creating a new mailbox for the specific user just as Martin suggested.
    Thanks

  • OUTLOOK can not open and prompt "the server is not available"

    The user configured multiple accounts in profile, when open MFCMAPI first, OUTLOOK can't open normally and prompt "the server is not available".
    How to solve this problem?

    Are you able to launch Outlook 2010 if the MFCMAPI is not running? If you happen to know the IP address and server name of your Exchange server. Please try to ping both of them from client side. If it is successful, then the connection to the server is good.
    You might try to run Test E-mail AutoConfiguration which is developed to test connection with Microsoft Exchange Server. Follow below steps:
    a.
    While Outlook is running, click the CTRL key and then right-click the Outlook icon in the system tray and then select “Test Email Autoconfiguration”.
    b. Confirm that your email address is in the address field,
    uncheck “Use Guessmart” and “secure Guessmart
    authentication” boxes. Then click the “Test” button.
    After the testing is completed, you can see the results for the selected account. It will show you the complete details of the account like Protocol, Server, Port, Login Name, SSL (enabled) etc. Then you should be able to see what exactly goes wrong.

  • Exchange 2010/Outlook 2010 Security Alert (...there is a problem with the site's security certificate.)

    I've been looking to resolve this issue for a while now and was hoping someone could help me understand my options.
    We have Exchange 2010 & Outlook 2010 in our environment. I've created a SSL cert for our ActiveSync from a reputable CA and unfortunately, as you may not be surprised, we are seeing an alert each time we open Outlook that states:
    "Security Alert; Information you exchange with this site cannot be viewed or changed by others. However, there is a problem with the site's security certificate.
    The name on the security certificate is invalid or does not match the name of the site."
    Of course my internal server name does not match my external server name. So the SSL I had created for use with OWA and ActiveSync is rejected by my internal Outlook clients.
    After doing some research I believe this is related to the Autodiscover service being configured with my internal server name and not my external name. 
    I've found some info about adding New-AutodiscoverVirtualDirectory and Set-ClientAccessServer commands and then found this article that might help.  (Configure
    Outlook Anywhere to Use Multiple SSL Certificates) but nothing is specific to my configuration and I'm concerned about what will happen to my existing configuration if this fails. 
    What happens when you run Set-ClientAccessServer? Does it retain and keep the old server config in place and add a new one or does it wipe it out? Will all of my devices need to be reconfigured?
    Same with New-AutodiscoverVirtualDirectory.  Does this simply add another virtual directory or is it going to overwrite my existing config?
    Then there is the question of whether or not any of this will actually address my issue at all.
    absolutezero273c

    Sorry.
    "[PS] C:\Windows\system32>Set-ClientAccessServer -Identity MailExt -AutoDiscoverServiceInternalUri "https://MailExt
    .contoso.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml"
    The operation couldn't be performed because object 'MailExt' couldn't be found on 'DomainController2.contoso.local'.
        + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (0:Int32) [Set-ClientAccessServer], ManagementObjectNotFoundException
        + FullyQualifiedErrorId : 4D980455,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.SystemConfigurationTasks.SetClientAccessServer"...is the error I get.
    I've created the split zones and populated the Forward Lookup Zones as follows:
    CONTOSO.COM
    MailExt(CNAME)MailInt.contoso.local
    _tcp _autodiscover(SRV)MailExt.contoso.com
    CONTOSO.LOCAL
    MailInt(A)192.168.1.10
    MailExt(CNAME)MailInt.contoso.com
    One thing I did notice is that there isn't a _tcp _autodiscover entry for MailInt in my Forward Lookup Zones.  It was recommended that I make that entry for _tcp _autodiscover(SRV)MailExt.contoso.com in another post I read somewhere.
    I believe what I am trying to do is create a new autodiscover object as is shown here:
    I see there is a Get-ClientAccessServer & Set-ClientAccessServer command but I need to add a CAS. Does the Set-ClientAccessServer add or simply modify?
    Or would that require the New-AutodiscoverVirtualDirectory command? I read
    this page that discussed creating new virtual directories but that seemed a little risky without knowing all the ins and outs of how this service functions and to what degree this would affect the existing configuration.
    I was able to use the Set-ClientAccessServer command and change the actual internal autodiscoverUri to https://MailExt.contoso.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml but the name still says MailInt and I continue to get the SSL cert warnings because it is looking
    at MailInt.contoso.local.

  • ISA 2006 publish Exchange 2010 Outlook Anywhere with KCD/NTLM and IPSEC - Problem

    Hi
    I have setup ISA 2006 to publish Exchange 2010 Outlook Anywhere with Kerberos Constrained Delegation and IPSEC.
    The clients have an IPSEC policy pushed to them via GPO.  The clients are windows 7 laptops and the ISA server is server 2003, so the IPSEC connection is IKE not AuthIP.
    However, it seems that the connection will work for a while, then all of a sudden stop working with zero trace of why.  I cant get the Oakley log to work and I cant see any traffic on the ISA.
    I am wondering if I need to publish the CRL's externally?  Currently we don't, and the Outlook Anywhere uses private certificates (as the whole point of IPSEC is to validate the internal certificate, there is no point in using
    public certificates).
    I have tried using the StrongCRLCheck=0 registry key in the IPsec Policy Agent on the windows 7 machine but it doesn't seem to make a difference.
    Any advice would be appreciated.
    Steven

    Hi,
    Firstly, have you received any related error messages in ISA server or on the clients' side? Besides, as you mentioned IPsec, did you have a VPN connection?
    In addition,
    While ISA 2006 only includes a Client Access Web Publishing Wizard for both Exchange 2003 and Exchange 2007. Which Exchange version you have chosen when publishing Exchange 2010?
    Please also make sure that you have selected the
    External interface for the web listener to listen on.
    Besides, the link below would be helpful to you:
    OWA publishing using Kerberos Constrained Delegation
    method for authentication delegation

  • I downloaded the new iOS7 but i cant download my apps to my phone i can only open them up on iTunes any advice why?

    Why cant i download my apps no more i can only open them on iTunes does any help please thanks.

    Try rebooting your iPad and see if they reappear.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If they still do not show up, make sure hat you don't have content restrictions set that could prevent certain apps from showing up on your iPad. Settings>General>RestrictionsAllowed Content.
    if you still don't see them, connect your iPad to iTunes on your computer and you should see them in the iPad mini screens on the right side of iTunes after the iPad has been selected under "devices" and when you are in the apps pane of iTunes.

  • Can only open firefox once, have to restart to open more than one browser. can't upload any pictures the box doesn't pop up, my browser settings are diff now

    Firefox just changed out of nowhere. I can only open firefox once... I used to have atleast 2 browsers up using them both on different sites, but now I can't have but one firefox browser up (not tabs, but firefox pages) Also when I am trying to upload images on ebay or any other site nothing happens... nothing pops up. I click it over and over and nothing even pops up. This is exactly what happens with the firefox browser in my first question... I can click the firefox icon a million times and nothing comes up. My tabs are all gone and it doesn't show anything like I had before this all changed? Did I reset everything some how? I do not recall clicking anything to go back... I do remember clicking an update because it kept poping up so I did it and that is the last thing I remember before this happened! UGHHH!

    As I asked previously are you able to have tabs open as a window by using the right clicking option ?
    When you close Firefox you should use
    *'''Firefox button -> File -> Exit '''
    Are you doing that ?
    I suspect what may be happening is Firefox is hanging as it closes down.
    * see [[Firefox hangs or is not responding - How to fix#w_firefox-hangs-when-you-quit-it]]_firefox-hangs-when-you-quit-it
    * this explains how to check & if necessary kill the process [["Firefox is already running but is not responding" error message - How to fix it#w_end-firefox-processes]]_end-firefox-processes
    A related possible problem is that you may have built up many copies of the restore files. These are stored in the Firefox profile. The easiest method of finding the profile location istouse
    *use '''Firefox button -> Help -> Troubleshooting Information <br /> -> [Show Folder]'''
    *see [[Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data]]
    You need to look for the files ''sessionstore.js'' and numbered duplicates of that. Delete them.
    * see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_hangs#Multiple_sessionstore.js_files

  • I can only open 1 .Ai file at a time from explorer

    Okay.  Googling is getting me nowhere and posting this is a last resort.
    computer is running:
    Windows 7 x64 SP1
    Creative Suite 5.5
    Illustrator 5.1
    The problem is:
    From within Windows Explorer, I can only open 1 Illustrator file at a time.  To get a different file to open, I either have to drag and drop the second file into the tabs under the menubar, or I need to quit Illustrator and re-open it.  Also,  I can not open additional files from Explorer one-at-a-time if one is already open.
    Quirks:
    If I go to File -> Open I can select multiple files from within the Open File dialogue window and they open just fine.  but i can't do it from within windows explorer.  This used to work and now it doesn't and I have no idea why.  Can anyone help me out?
    Seriously? 137 views and no replies?  No one has run into this before?

    This is a long shot but try going to Preferences/Type and uncheck "Show Font Names in English".
    Quit illustrator and restart, does it work now?
    The reason I´m suggesting this is that unless I have this box unchecked, some internal function in illustrator crashes after I´ve opened one document and I have to quit & restart if I wan´t to open another one. A rather silly bug and I stumpled upon the solution by accident after cursing illustrator for a couple of months...
