Exchange and outlook 2013

Hello Im very confused. I have outlook 2013 and just subscribed for hosted MS exchange account straight on Microsoft site. Now Im lost - I didnt find any simple tutorial what to do now. I have 6 email addresses ( every on different domain) all I need is
to have access to my emails and email history from all my devices ( PC, tablets) I have Outlook 2013 on all my mobile devices. All emails are now managed only locally from my PC and outlook 2013.
1) I need import all my existing emails saved in my computer to exchange - so i can access it from my other devices
2) I need switch from local receiving/sending emails from my computer to exchange so it will be all synchronized - so I can see all emails and old emails from my all devices and send/receive from all devices.
I didnt find any simple tutorial step by step how tro do it. My situation is simpla: NOw I have outlook 2013 with all my 6 pop3 emails configured in outlook 2013. ALso now I have access to hosted MS Exchange . But what now ? WHat are exact steps I should
do ? Any help ?

Might help if you tell us where you got the hosted Exchange account, Office 365 or some other provider?
To import the old emails and use the Exchange mailbox as central repository, you can use the Connected accounts feature:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/support/connected-accounts-HA102836325.aspx?CTT=5&origin=HA103002943
Or here:
https://support.office.com/en-US/Article/Learn-about-connecting-to-other-accounts-74609141-8b8e-413a-b7db-8ac0a6a36488
The limit is 5 however.
Another option is to export everything to .pst files and import them to the Exchange account.
In the long run, you might consider validating your domains with Office 365 and configuring the addresses as aliases of the new mailbox.
All of the above info assumes that you are using Office 365.

Cannot connect to Exchange server (Small Business Server 2008) using Windows 8.1 and Outlook 2013

I am at my wits end. I have got a new PC running Windows 8.1 and Outlook 2013 simply WILL NOT connect to my work Exchange server. The REALLY annoying thing is that the Windows Mail client inbuilt to Windows 8.1 works perfectly! But I have to have Outlook
for the functionality. The issue appears to be that in Outlook 2013 on Windows 8.1, it tries to be clever and auto-detect the settings whereas Windows Mail allows you to input the server and domain names.
I have tried all the suggestions already on some of the boards - manual setup, etc - nothing works! Is it a compatibilityissue with SBS 2008 and Outlook 2013? Any help appreciated!

There's no issue with O'2013 connecting with Ex '2007. Also not clear about comments of "auto-detect" versus "....have tried all the suggestions ............ manual setup....". On the one hand your stating that only "auto-detect" is available and on the
other that you've tried "manual settings" (which definitely is an option in O'2013 for EX accounts).
This may have more to do with the fact that you're using a new computer trying to connect to the server which it may not be configured for - something your admin will need to address.
Given that your question is in reference to Exchange - you are likely to get a better/faster answer in the following forum which deals with Exchange server related questions:

You can use New-MoveRequest to perform a cross-forest move. Here is a well post and step-wise explanation you can check for cross forest migration from exchange 2010 to exchange 2013(http://msexchangeguru.com/2013/11/03/e2013crossforestmigration/).

Outlook 2013: Accessing Exchange with Outlook 2013 and OST on mulitple machines?

My organization recently transitioned to off-site Exchange servers. Users were upgraded to Office 365 / Outlook 2013 using OST files (PST files previously
In addition to my work laptop, I have Outlook 2013 available on a personal Surface Pro 3. I cannot find a definitive answer on whether it will be a problem to connect to Exchange via Outlook 2013 using an OST files from both the work laptop and personal
tablet. Will having OST files on separate machines create sync issues? I have access to Outlook Web Access on the Surface, but prefer the Outlook desktop application for quick actions and other tools.

Hi,
Typically, when you use a Microsoft Exchange Server account, your email messages, calendar, and other items are delivered to and saved on the server. You can configure Outlook to keep a local copy of your items on your computer in an Outlook data file that
is named an offline Outlook Data File (.ost).
As what Amit says, there would be no issue configuring Exchange account from both the work laptop and personal tablet. The OST file is synchronized with the Exchange computer when a connection is available. It is synced from Exchange server instead of the
Outlook client from your first account computer.
For more information about Outlook Data Files (.pst and .ost), please refer to:

"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

Is iCloud compatible with Windows 8.1 and Outlook 2013 Ver 15.0?

I have rcently updated Windows to 8.1 and Outlook 2013 to 15.0. Now iCloud is not providing any info to the Outlook Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, Notes, etc. The error message I get is "The set of folders cannot be opened. The information store could not be opened." The info exists on iCloud and my phone.

What is missing is the iCloud (& iTunes) Outlook Add-in

Installed Windows 8.1 and Outlook 2013 - have to use iCloud Outlook Add-in to sync my Iphone 5 with Outlook - reminders work on iPhone, but reminder window & email reminders don't work in Outlook 2013. Help

Using windows 8.1 and outlook 2013 with iCloud Outlook Add-in so that my iPhone 5 will sync with outlook. Now reminders work on iPhone 5, but don't work in outlook 2013. Help, I've tried everything I can think of or found on the internet.

Hi,
Please follow the steps below to make sure the reminders have been enabled in Outlook:
On the File tab, click Options.
Select Advanced in the Outlook Options dialog box.
In the Reminders section, select Show reminders.
Click OK.
I also found a similar thread here:

As mentioned in the thread, you can try these steps:
Use MFCMAPI to delete the Reminders Folder, then run "outlook.exe /resetfolders" to recreate this folder:

Microsoft Exchange and Outlook "requesting data.. error message.

I have a customer experiencing problems with their Microsoft Exchange and Outlook clients running across a newly installed ATM WAN. I have a 3 MB IMA circuit at the host as well as the remote. On a frequest basis the clients will get the requesting data from Exchange server error message. Any suggestions on what might be causing this problem?

Exchange server was original designed as a LAN application, thus the RPC protocol. Since you are running across a slow WAN (latency is not LAN like) you can only adjust/eliminate the message via the Registry, or better yet a Group Policy;
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;293650
The messages become more prevalent with large number of users, slow hardware, and with Outlook 2003. The move to RPC over HTTP (2003 Exchange and Outlook 2003) might reduce chatter.

How do I wirelessly synch my Notes using iCloud among iPad, iPhone 5S and Outlook 2013 running on Windows 8.1

How do I set up my devices to wirelessly synch my Notes using iCloud among iPad, iPhone 5S and Outlook 2013 running on Windows 8.1?

Hey bwind,
You will want to first create an iCloud account, if you haven’t already:
Creating an iCloud account: Frequently Asked Questions
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4436
Next, sign in to that iCloud account on your iPhone and iPad, and turn on the syncing for notes:
iCloud - iPhone
http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph3c79652c
iCloud - iPad User Guide
http://help.apple.com/ipad/7/#/iPad995bbafe
Then you will want to download the iCloud Control Panel for Windows:
iCloud Control Panel 3.1 for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1455
You will find your notes in their own section on Outlook:
iCloud: Notes overview
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12081
On your Windows computer, your changes are pushed to Microsoft Outlook in the Notes folder of your iCloud email account. You can see your iCloud notes by expanding your iCloud email account in the Outlook folder pane (also called the navigation pane), then selecting the Notes folder in the email account.
Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

Sync iPad Calendar to Both Exchange and Outlook on Two Windows 7 PCs

I would like to sync my Outlook 2010/Exchange calendar from my computer at work with my iPad, and then sync my iPad with Outlook 2007 on my home computer. I'd like for the result to be one sync'd up calendar on each device.
I have my iPad set to sync Over The Air with my Exchange calendar from work. It syncs perfectly. I would like to also sync that Exchange calendar, now on my iPad, with my home computer. My home computer is the one that I sync my iPad with via iTunes. That computer runs Windows 7 & Outlook 2007. My home computer does not run exchange and Outlook 2007 at home is simply running as a local .PST file.
My problem has been that the Exchange calendar on the iPad does not sync with Outlook 2007 on my home computer. I have iTunes on my home computer configured to sync my calendar with Outlook 2007 on my home computer, but iTunes has created a second calendar on my iPad called "Calendar" under the "From My PC" heading in the Calendar app. My Exchange calendar shows up on my iPad as "Calendar" under my work email address "[email protected]". The two calendars do not appear to play nicely with each other. The From My PC Calendar only syncs items from my calendar in Outlook 2007 on my Home PC. The "[email protected]" (Exchange) Calendar only syncs with my work PC.
I'm looking for a solution that doesn't involve installing anything on my work PC, as technically that machine is locked down and I cannot add any programs.

I had my home computer set up to sync to work's Exchange server. It worked well, but I didn't like seeing work email messages and other programs trying to sync with my default Outlook folder, which was then the Exchange (& work related) .ost file. I know there are various ways to manage those problems using filters, view, subfolders, etc., but it was a hassle for me. I think it could work well for many other folks.
For now, I have published my work calendar and subscribed to that calendar on my home computer. So I have view only access to my calendar on my home computer (and I can add/edit calendar items on my iPad (or Outlook Web Access) when away from work). This is not quite what I wanted, but it may work.
It almost makes me long for the days when I used my Windows Mobile Treo to sync back and forth between exchange at work and outlook at home (but had many sync conflicts as a result).

Notice field from a task in OWA (Exchange 2013 SP1) and Outlook 2013 are not the synchronizend correclty

Hi,
To work around this issue, use one of the following methods to verify the quota status of mailboxes.
Method 1: Use Exchange Admin Console (EAC)
If you want to verify the status of individual mailbox quotas, follow these steps: 1.Log on to EAC by using a user account that is assigned at least the Mail Recipients role.
2.In the feature pane, click recipients. A list of mailboxes is displayed.
3.Select the mailbox of which you want to verify the quota status, and then click the Edit button on the toolbar.
4.Click mailbox usage. The mailbox quota usage is displayed.
Method 2: Use Exchange Management Shell
If you want to verify the status of individual mailbox quota, run the following command in Exchange Management Shell:
Get-MailboxStatistics DisplayName | ft *quota*,*size -AutoSize –Wrap
If you want to verify the status of the mailbox quota for all the mailboxes that are hosted on a database, run the following command:
Get-MailboxStatistics -Database DatabaseName | ft displayname,*quota*,*size -AutoSize –Wrap

Never ending story: Exchange and Outlook 2010/2013 - Read receipts (reading confirmation) implementation is buggy

OK, I try it again (for the fifth time or so), maybe anywhere in the big microsoft world there is ONE support engineer that is able to recognize a bug and hand it over to the development????
In several cases the read receipt does not contain the sending time of the original message, instead it contains (quite senseless) the time when the receipt itself has been sent.
The only information in the read receipt is the subject of the original mail which may be identical in longer mailthreads to several (dozends of) mails. So in this implementation you are not able to find out to which message a read receipt really relates.
So we cannot prove at all if a single mail in a thread has been read or not. The printout of such a receipt does not have any information that can be used in a meeting or discussion.
Since this situation obviously lasts for several years I'd like to ask
how I can get a working read-receipt-functionality for professional eMail-handling???
It seems that the problem does not lie in the content of the MDN sent by the Exchange server.
If I look into a copy of such a sent MDN with Thunderbird, it tells me for example, that my mail, sent on 15th Juli 2013 14:43:47 (UTC+1) has been read on 15th Juli 2013 14:50:08, which is correct.
But in combination with Outlook I get the same MDN displayed like follows:
Your message at... subject... sent Monday, 15. Juli 2013 14:51:30 (UTC+01:00)... has been read on Monday, 15. Juli 2013 14:51:16 (UTC+01:00) (Text translated from German to English)
So Outlook exchanges the timestamps and falsifies the content of the MDN.
This does only appear in combination with an Exchange server. If I work with a POP3 account and Outlook and send a message to an Exchange 2010 mailbox the correct timestamps are displayed within the returned MDN-message.
All involved systems are set to German (DE-de), the timezone on all systems is UTC+1
Here a small table with my tests
I've used Outlook on all Clients, 2010 and 2013.
Sender: sends initial mail and gets the Reading Confirmation
Receiver: gets the initial mail and sends the MDN
Sender     |     Receiver     |     MDN Display
POP3        |     Exchange   |     correct
Exchange |     Exchange   |     fail (displays wrong "sent"-time)
POP3        |     POP3         |     correct
Exchange |     POP3         |     fail (displays wrong "sent"-time)
It is obvious this cannot be a "feature". This is different behaviour depending on the senders Account type and one of this two scenarios must be a bug.
Could you help me further on this, please?

Almost no - the MS-Support here in this website was completely overchallenged to even understand this issue. I've tried several times to address this in this forum with no success. The "supporters" here had only one target - to quickly get this
"complicated" case off their desks.
The Office 365 support was much more competent and able to understand the problem. They escalated this to the development team (which lasted about 3 months, dozends of telephone calls and about 20 hours working time, which I had to donate to Microsoft freely)
and located the Problem in Exchange Server.
The result was that they promised to fix it in Exchange Server 2013, but there will be no Bugfix in Exchange 2010. I am waiting for the fulfilment of this promise since over 6 months.
Microsoft seems not to have any problem to leave their (professional and very expensive) Exchange software in a buggy state.
My conclusion: If Exchange 2010 runs out of maintenance I'll switch to Linux and Zarafa Server. The Zarafa guys are able to understand and fix their bugs and I do not have to donate thousands of Euros in working time only to get them understanding their
own bugs.
PS: You need only to press F1 in Office, especially in Access in the German language variant and you get an impressing lesson how desolate Microsoft is working today. Pressing F1 in Access 97 or XP lets you know, how much better they were some years ago.
An impressive deep fall down to the ground.

Exchange 2010 and Outlook 2013

please read my question and comments carefully before replying.
We just upgraded to Outlook 2013 x64bit and exchange 2010. there is only one exchange server with all updates and fixes installed, and Outlook is up-to-date as well.
User A sends a meeting request with tentative appointment to user B
User B accepts the appointment and it shows on his calendar as tentative
User A changes the appointment from tentative to out of the office or busy and sends update to user B
User B receives the update and click on No Response Required
User B's calendar does NOT change from tentative to out of the office or busy.......
we tried OWA as well as tried this in cached mode and online mode and made no difference.
you can see that communiation is real time between the two clients and exchange because as a test, I changed the words and client machine immediately updated but the free/busy/out of the office status never changes unless you change the time of the appointment.
Please let me know
David

Hi David,
It is by design.
The Free/Busy status is a private property that can be changed but
only with a full update. A full update is practically a new meeting invitation to the same event, replacing the old properties with the new ones. Full updates are sent when one or more of the following properties are changed:
Start Date/Time
End Date/Time
Recurrence
If you only send a update about free/busy status, it is an informational update instead of a full update. Thus, the free/busy status of the meeting is unchanged. For more information about meeting updates, we can refer to the following blog:
