Exchange 2013 Public Folder Missing in Outlook

Hello,
i have succesfully migrated from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013.
Everything was running after i migrated the public folders they disappeared on the Clients after starting Outlook 2013.
We are able to see the public Folders in OWA but not in Outlook.
Anybody know this Problem and can help?
regards
René

Hi,
Based on the description, everything was running after you migrated from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013. When you upgraded from Outlook 2010 to Outlook 2013, you couldn't see public folders in Outlook 2013. However, you could see public folders in Outlook
2010, but you couldn't expand it. OWA worked well.
If I misunderstood your concern, please feel free to let me know.
About "No we had migrated to Office 2013 before but tested it now with Outlook 2010.", was the Outlook 2010 client a remaining Outlook 2010 client?
Did the issue affect all users or some of them?
Could you please switch between online mode and cached mode to check the result?
Best regards,
Belinda

  • Exchange 2013 - Public Folder Mailbox and Single Item Recovery

    Hello,
    I recently had a request to recover some messages that an ex-employee deleted from the "recover deleted items" folder in their public folder. Since this resides on a public folder mailbox and it does have the option for
    "Single Item Recovery" to be enabled on the box (which I enabled not knowing if this really works or not), is there a way I can still recovery these items or do I have to go to a backup to obtain those messages. Since ExFolders does not work that
    is not an option. I've seen commands to restore a public folder that was deleted but not items that were deleted directly from a public folder. I checked using MFCMAPI and I do see the dumper root and the public folder dumpster for each folder but it
    looks to be only the "deletions" folder and don't see anything similar to a "purges" type folder. Any ideas or am I stuck recovering from backup? Thanks in advance!

    So I think you are stuck and will need to restore the EDB to a Recovery Database to restore the items because when the end user purged the items from the "Recover Deleted Items" it removes them from the Recoverable Items/Deletions folder. 
    Check out this article
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2013/08/23/recovering-public-folder-information-in-exchange-2013.aspx
    I have not played with the recoverable items settings on the 2013 public folder enabled mailbox EDB  but you might try checking out Litigation or In Place Hold to use as a safety mechanism moving forward.  That said this will also increase the
    DB size so consider all the options before implementing
    Search, Recover, & Extract Mailboxes, Folders, & Email Items from Offline Exchange Mailbox and Public Folder EDB's and Live Exchange Servers or Import/Migrate direct from Offline EDB to Any Production Exchange Server, even cross version i.e. 2003 -->
    2007 --> 2010 --> 2013 with Lucid8's

  • Outlook save/update error with Exchange 2013 public folder used as Contact Items

    Hello Everybody.
    This problem is driving me crazy.
    In Exchange 2013 i have created a public folder with several subfolders used as Contact Items.
    I've reviewed all settings several times and all is ok.
    Outlook 2010/2013 users several times receive the message:
    "The item cannot be saved to this folder. The folder was deleted or moved, or you do not have permission. Do you want to save a copy of it in the default folder for the item?"
    when try save an existing contact after modification.
    I can assure you that user permissions, server configurations are ok; please, help me.

    Did you make the subfolder the correct type, i.e., a contacts-type folder?

  • Exchange 2013 - Public folder search not working

    Hi There,
    We have Exchange 2013 install on server 2012 and clients using Outlook 2010 on Windows 7.
    Since we have installed the system a search of the public folders always returns no results even if we know the email is there. Any suggestions?
    Thank you
    Dave

    Hi Triumphtech,
    Yes, if our Exchange 2003 environment is healthy, it will work.
    Please forgive me for the silly clarification. If we used Exchange 2003 and wanted to migrate to Exchange 2013. We must migrate to Exchange 2007/2010 first, then to Exchange 2013.
    So please make sure we have moved the public folder successfully first.
    And great information from Tarique Noorain.
    According to  the article, I found some points for your reference:
    1. Although a full text search of public folder content is available, public folder content isn't searchable across public folders and the content isn't indexed by Exchange Search.
    2. You must use Outlook 2007 or later to access public folders on Exchange 2013 servers.
    Feel free to contact me if there is any problem.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I have found an article said that we need to set the external host name the same. See more details in the following link:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/mspfe/archive/2013/10/21/upgrading-to-on-premises-exchange-server-2013.aspx
    To allow your Exchange 2013 Client Access server to redirect connections to your Exchange 2007 servers, you must enable and configure
    Outlook Anywhere on all of the Exchange 2007 servers in your organization. If some Exchange 2007 servers in your organization are already configured to use Outlook Anywhere, their configuration must also be updated to support Exchange 2013.
    The following configuration is set on each Exchange 2007 server:
    The Outlook Anywhere external URL is set to the external hostname of the Exchange 2013 server.

  • Exchange 2013 Public Folder Migration Problem

    Hi All,
    Wonder if any of you can assist with a public folder issue I am having with Exchange 2013. We have migrated from Exchange 2010 to 2013.
    I have followed the guide for public folder migration here
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj150486(v=exchg.150).aspx
    Everything went fine and as per the document - except I had to use the "largeitemlimit" parameter to get the public folder migration to complete.
    We tested the public folder migration by adding content to public folders and creating public folders and it all appeared to be OK, we completed the migration and removed our old public folder databases from Exchange 2010.
    However we noticed later that users cannot CREATE folders in SOME public folders. It appears from some testing that any folder that does not lie in the first public folder mailbox, end users cannot create public folders.  Administrators can create them
    fine from the ECP - just not from outlook.
    It also appears some users cannot see some folders that they have permissions to.
    Can anyone assist with some ideas to resolve ?
    Thanks.

    Question?
    Are you able to create the Folder in OWA?

    it is not functionally possible to create Public Folders in OWA user interface in Exchange 2013!.... From admin ECP it works fine!
    My Bad, that's what I was trying to say.
    Testing the same thing in the LAB, should have some update tomorrow morning.

  • Exchange 2013 Public Folder Calendars in OWA

    Hello,
    I have a Public Folder calendar that I need to publish via OWA in Exchange 2013.  I understand that you cannot view any public folder that is not mail enabled in OWA.  If I make this specific calendar mail enabled will I be able to view the calendar
    in OWA?  I think I still have to convert this to a shared mailbox.  If that is the case, what are the best steps to perform that?

    Hi,
    Yes I agree with Ed Crowley. In Exchange 2013 Cumulative Update 1, Microsoft have allowed to display public folders. However, two major restrictions exist. First, OWA can only display modern public folders. In other words, you have to complete your
    migration to Exchange 2013 and then execute a public folder migration before OWA can be used. No access is possible to legacy public folders. Second, OWA can only display “mail public folders”, or public folders that contain “mail and post items” (as they
    are referred to by Outlook). Other folders (calendars, contacts, tasks, notes, InfoPath, and journal items) are unsupported.

  • Exchange 2013 Public Folder Accessability Issues

    After migrating from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013 we are experiencing random issues accessing Public Folders.  Issues range from a hung server requests to on-screen errors like this one:
    “Cannot expand the folder. Microsoft Exchange is not available. Either there are network problems or the Exchange server is down for maintenance”
    We are using groups to manage permissions, verified that they are mail enabled, and have used the following PS command to re-propagate permissions:
    ./AddUsersToPFRecursive.ps1 -TopPublicFolder "%folder%" -User "%groupname" -Permissions %permissionlevel"
    The odd thing is that if the user bounces between on of their Inbox folders then back to one of the Public folders or restarts Outlook it seems to resolve itself.
    Ideas?

    Hi Niko,
    Firstly, apologies for the delayed update...
    We are still experiencing random loss of access to Public Folders, I would think it would be so much easier if I could replicate the problem quickly and easily however that is not the case as I ran into this issue again this morning.
    I am really at a loss for explanation, what I can offer is when we had migrated from Exchange 2000 to Exchange 2010 I had to export the PF out to a pst file prior to importing them on the new server installation.  While migrating from Exchange 2010
    to Exchange 2013 we did follow the migration process.

  • Exchange 2013 Public Folder Migration Not Listed

    I started a public folder migration from my 2010 SP3 Exchange server to my new 2013 SP1 Exchange server. Somewhere during the process I failed. Not sure where but I am now at the point where if I try to create a new public folder on teh 2013 box i get a
    warning like this.
    An existing Public Folder deployment has been detected. To migrate existing Public Folder data, create new Public Folder mailbox using -HoldForMigration switch.
    So I then run Get-PublicFoldermIgrationRequest to see what is still waiting... I get no migration listed in Exchange Management Shell.
    I would like to find the place in AD or in the Server that thinks there is still an active request out there and remove it so I can start again with a clean slate. How do I do that?
    Thanks!

    Hi Zulea,
    This is a known issue, I recommend you refer to the following article to resolve the issue:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/3004062/en-us
    Cause:
    This problem occurs when the Exchange organization coexists with an earlier version of Exchange Server, and one or more public folder databases from the earlier version of Exchange still exist.
    Resolution:
    To resolve this issue, use one of the following methods.
    Method 1: Create the mailbox by using the -HoldForMigration switch:
    This option lets an administrator create a public folder mailbox in order to begin a migration from the existing public folders:
    Open the Exchange Management Shell.
    Run the following cmdlet to create the public folder mailbox:
    New-Mailbox "Public Folder Mailbox" -PublicFolder -HoldForMigration
    Method 2: Remove all public folder databases from earlier versions of Exchange Server
    To remove existing public folder databases, see the following TechNet websites, as appropriate for the version of Exchange that an existing public folder resides on.
    Exchange 2010:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd876883(v=exchg.141).aspx
          (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd876883(v=exchg.141).aspx)    
    Exchange 2007:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa998329(v=EXCHG.80).aspx
          (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa998329(v=EXCHG.80).aspx)    
    Create the public folder mailbox by using either the Exchange Admin Center (EAC) or the Exchange Management Shell (EMS). To do this, see the following TechNet website:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj552410(v=exchg.150).aspx

  • Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013 Public Folder Problem

    Dear Experts,
    I am in a face of migrating Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013. Below are my infrastructure details,
    1) Parent Domain in Site A (abc.com)
    2) One Child domain in Site A named child1.abc.com and Exchange 2007 is running in Site A child domain
    3) One Child domain in Site B named me.abc.com and currently Exchange 2010 is running in Site B.
    I have installed Exchange 2013 in Site B in coexistence scenario now Exchange 2013 users in Site B trying to attempt connection with a public folder store in the Site A Exchange 2007 servers instead of Site B Exchange 2010 servers.
    Anyone help will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks & Regards,
    ZB

    so you want users to access the PF in site B.
    Check the setting of Databases in Exchange 2013 and find out what is default Public Folder setup for those Database. You will basically need to change the default Public Folder in Exchange 2013 from Site A PF to Site B,, the way you have explained the scenario.
    run this for Exchanger 2013 DA

  • Exchange 2013 public folder showing as mail enable no, after migration

    I have migrated from 2010 to 2013 and now have a problem with some MailPublicFolders. They can receive mail, but show up in EAC as Mail Enabled "no". If I try to mail enable them they get an odd ball address i.e.
    subject?[email protected]
    I need them to show as mail enabled in EAC so I can give people SendAs etc.
    If I edit the email address, I get an error saying the address already exists.
    I think it is from 2003/2010 when alias was set to
    [email protected] and now that is not permitted.
    Thinking back to when we went from 2003 to 2010, we had to mail disable, then mail enable to get them working.
    How can I fix the properties and end up with a mail enabled mailpublicfolder?

    Hi,
    For this issue, I recommend you delete the public folder object under the Microsoft Exchange System Objects container. Before you delete the public folder object, please note the existing SMTP addresses.
    After that, please Mail-enable the
    public folder again to check result.

  • Exchange 2013 Public Folder Error

    When I try to create a Public Folder in Exchange Admin Center for Exchange Standard 2013 I get an error that says: "The process failed to get the correct properties".   If I create the Public Folder from shell "New-PublicFolder -Name
    "Bldg 1 & 2" -Path "\Projects\10000 to 10099"", when I browse to it from Admin Center I receive the same error.

    Somewhere there is a rule and I cannot for the life of me find it.
    I would really appreciate some help on this one.
    Thanks in advance.

    Grant yourself Owner role on the folder, and you should then be able to use Outlook to see if there are any folder rules associated with it.  Also look at your transport rules to see if there's one that's based on that recipient address.
