Help needed with buggy Outlook 2013 and Exchange 2010 trashing profiles

Hi All,
I have a customer who has eschewed MOLP and buys all their Office OEM from Dell. So as a result they are starting to have more and more office 2013 be deployed. They have a SBS 2011 server with Exchange 2010 and it is patched to the latest
rollups and service packs. (SP3, RU2) Their Outlook 2010 and earlier clients are just peachy on this. But the Outlook 2013 clients are having problems.
What is going on is that periodically I'll get a complaint from a user that their Outlook 2013 is randomly crashing. In all cases the fix is going into the Outlook Profiles, creating a new profile, then setting the new profile as the default
and going back into Outlook 2013 and letting it rebuild the cached data on the PC. This seems to happen a few times a month with random users on the network.
I told the customer it was probably people not logging out of Outlook 2013 at night and their machines being power spiked but I think that's highly unlikely since it doesen't happen to the Outlook 2010 clients.
I don't know if any Microsoft developers read this but if you do, please take it back to your bug database. Any other suggestions would be appreciated (other than scotch Outlook 2013 - while I'd appreciate that, my customer wouldn't)

In all cases the fix is going into the Outlook Profiles, creating a new profile, then setting the new profile as the default and going back into Outlook 2013 and letting it rebuild the cached data on the PC.
The Outlook 2013 crash problem would be fix after you re-create a new profile and re-sync the data from Exchange, right?
When we meet the same problem in next time, I suggest we run the Outlook Product Stability Diagnostic tool to isolate known causes of crashes in Outlook. The Outlook Product Stability Diagnostic also creates a diagnostic report outlining the data it collected
and recommendations on possible steps you can take to reduce or eliminate Outlook stability issues.

Problems with a shared calendar using Outlook 2007 and Exchange 2010

Hello all,
We are having a problem with sharing a calendar using Outlook 2007 and Exchange 2010.
I will start with some background. I have just started my position with this company. I have been working with networks for awhile at the small business level. I have not had much production experience with exchange. There is only myself and my supervisor
who has inherited a midsized network which was built by five previous techs that are no longer with the company. Of course, the previous techs did not leave much documentation, so the original hows and whys for our system setup has been lost.
One of the managers has a calendar she shares with some of our users. I believe this calendar has been in use since sometime in 2006. A mailbox was created to hold this calendar to keep it separate from the managers calendar. I am not sure what version
of exchange they were using at that time, but I assume there was one or two migrations of it getting to its current state on our exchange 2010 server. At some point it was observed that the other workers she was sharing with were not able to access it correctly.
I am not fully sure what the original problem was (possibly some people not being able to see or connect to the calendar), but it was decided to give everyone who needed access to this calendar full access permissions through exchange. Correct me if I
am wrong, but I believe that gave everyone connected the ability to do anything with the calendar. Of course the manager was not happy about that. This is where I started working on the problem.
I removed everyone, except the manager who wants to control the calendar, from having "Full Access Permissions". This did have the effect of making some people just able to see the calendar and not make changes. Though there were others that were
able to connect to the calendar who I thought would not be able to. The manager that originally created the calendar did try to manage access to it through the Outlook interface, though it currently does not seem to be fully in effect.
So, to get to the point of what we are trying to do, is there a way to get the original manager back into control of the calendar though Outlook? It would be preferred to be able to keep the history of what they tracked of this calendar, so starting a new
one would be something we would rather avoid. After that, getting all of the users that need to connect to the calendar reconnected with the correct access permissions and making sure they are all synchronized.
I realize this is a big mess, and your help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Nigel,
How is the impact, just one user or all users, Outlook or OWA?
If just one user, it seems like an issue on the Outlook Client side.
Please trying to re-create new profile to fresh the caches.
Please runing Outlook under safe mode to avoid some AVs, add-ins and firewall.
Found a similar thread for your reference:

Help needed with bindfs, bind mounts, and more

Hi all!
A long time ago before the security sandbox in OS X came about, I used to create symlinks to point my Document directories to subdirectories within my Dropbox/Google Drive store.
Since that doesn't work now, talk on the street is to use bind mounts instead, and it mostly works for me except for Microsoft Office 2011.
Somehow, when I try to save to a file via the bind mounted mount point, I always end up getting a "Cannot save or create this file" error like this:
My mount point has the correct read and write permissions as well as ownership, so what else should I check?
Advice from other Mac users who experienced it before greatly appreciated!

In all cases the fix is going into the Outlook Profiles, creating a new profile, then setting the new profile as the default and going back into Outlook 2013 and letting it rebuild the cached data on the PC.

Exchange 2013 and Exchange 2010 coexistense

We have a and exchange 2010 organization with SP3 on most servers except for one 2010 CAS server that still requires SP1 for the purpose of legacy application compatibility. Can we introduce exchange 2013 in the org or will the setup detect
that there is an exchange 2010 server still with SP1 and fails to continue?

Hi,
For Exchange 2013 coexistence with Exchange 2010, the mininum version of Exchange server is Exchange 2010 SP3 on all Exchange 2010 servers in the organization. For more information about it, please refer to the Coexistence of Exchange 2013 and earlier versions
of Exchange server part in the article below:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj898583(v=exchg.150).aspx
Personal suggestion, please upgrade your legacy application to the latest version which is supported with Exchange 2010 SP3 or higher Exchange version.

Imceainvalid on sent emails - Outlook 2013 and Exchange 2013 on premise

Hi All
I have a customer that has had a ongoing issue for some time now and I have had no luck in resolving it. I can see the exact same issues highlighted by other people but generally this relates to older office version and/or older exchange.
Issue: Error after sending email:
IMCEAINVALID -
Remote Server returned '550
5.1.0 RESOLVER.ADR.InvalidInSmtp; encapsulated INVALID address inside an SMTP
address (IMCEAINVALID-)'
[email protected]
Cause:
If you check the properties of the To/CC addresses (only the display name is filled out as the email address, the email address field itself and "type" are not filled (does not always occur and not for ALL
recipients of email)
Checks:
There are no local contacts for these email addresses in outlook. The auto complete cache has also been cleared. Running exchange in cached mode is not an available option due to the setup.
Email details:
These emails are generated by third party software however not the same software. This is occurring on emails generated into the outlook client by software Rosetta as well as by Mimecast plugin to download archivedemails(then reply to all). This is also
an intermittent issue and does not occur every time with all the emails.
Search:
All searches I have done seem to mainly point to the auto complete option in outlook but this is not the cause of this in my scenario. There was also a known issue in Office 2007 I believe with a office update to resolve, but this is Outlook 2013.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hi,
If you just create an email directly from Outlook, has this issue occurred ever?
You can also start Outlook in Safe Mode and then use the 3rd-party software to send some test emails, check if the problem persists.
To start Outlook in Safe Mode:
Press Win + R, type "outlook.exe /safe" in the blank box, press Enter.
In Outlook Safe Mode, all add-ins will be disabled. If there's no problem in Outlook Safe Mode, disable the suspicious add-ins to verify which one caused the problem.
Since the issue is intermittent, you may need to test for a period.

Unable to expand public folder in Outlook 2013 and Exchange 2013 CU6

Hello,
we have just migrated Exchange 2010 to 2013. Everything works great, except public folders, which we are not able to expand in Outlook 2013. Public folders can be added to OWA without any problem, so just the Outlook 2013 is a problem (we never tried any
other version, as all the e-mail clients installed here are Outlook 2013).
The public folders are visible under node Favorities in Outlook 2013, but whenever we click any folder, the Public folders disappear completely from the left navigation pane or the message is shown on the right pane, that the public folder cannot be opened.
When Outlook is started, a dialog is sometimes opened, which contains prefilled Microsoft exchange server, mailbox, button Check name, which is disabled. The only thing which can be done with that dialog is clicking the button Ok.
Any help is appreciated, the desperation level starts to be reaching max threshold.
Kind regards,
John.

Thank you for your quick response. I have tried removing and creating new Outlook profile many times, without any effect.
1) When I switch to the online mode, only the node All Public Folders is displayed in the left navigation pane and after I start the Outlook the dialog mentioned above is displayed. The node Favourities is not visible.
2) In offline node, node App Public folders is visible and whenever I click it, message "Cannot expand the folder" is shown. After checking Download favourities, the list of public folders is available, but whenever I click any folder, it shows
"We didn't find anything to show here." and "The folder is up to date." in the bottom status bar. The content is rendered correctly in OWA and these public folders contain many e-mails and subfolders. None of these is rendered in Outlook.
Thanks in advance for any tips and inspiration, we start to run out of ideas. I am more than sure that it will be something simple, but we can't still figure it out.

Outlook 2013 and exchange. Cant see new mail in subfolders.

Hello,
In our company we have exchange 2010 with sp3 and all clients with windows 8.1 and Outlook 2013. Problem is that clients have problem with new messages in their mailboxes. they cant see new messages in subfolders. In Outlook 2010 everything worked fine,
and after migration to 2013 this problem started.
For example:
There is user mailbox. He have a lot of subfolders. All subfolders is for varies companies. So he created rules, then someone writes from campany, mail goes to its subfolder. Problem is that then user opens Outlook in the morning, he can't see that
new mails are arrived to those subfolders. User must open that subfolder and only then, inside that subfolder he can see unread message. But how user can know, that inside is unread mail? :) Sometimes everything works fine, and sometimes user can't see new
mails. Then he opens OWA, all new mails is marked as unread and there is number near subfolder with unread mail count.
And this problem repeats to all users. I updated exchange to SP3 update 6. Operating system and Outlook is up to date. Recreation of profile helps for a week or two (Or user do not notice problem), and after that user calls me again with the same problem.
And this happens not for one user but for all. Sometimes restarting Outlook helps, after restart number with unread mail count appears near subfolder. There is no addins or other changes in Outlook. Search folder is not a solution, because there is a lot of
subfolders, so it would be a mess.
Can you advice me? Where can be problem? Is it global for all users who are using exchange 2010 and Outlook 2013?
Mantas

I tryed using search folder but this solution didnt helped. Then user opens Outlook he sees unread mail count near subfolder, and sum of unread mails in search
folder. But somefing happens and new mails does not appear neither in search folder neither near subfolders. But then client opens subfolder there are unread mails. In OWA everytime everything is OK. So user must check in OWA is there new mails and in which
subfolder, then he opens that subfolder in Outlook, and uhnread mail is here.
And another thing. Now one of clients have this problem. There is no count of new mails in subfolders, outlook does not show it, but OWA shows. In rules, client created few rules, near rules in action section,
there is icon, it looks like screwdriver and wrench, i went to propeties of those rules and removed "Stop processing more rules", and this icon disappeared. All rules updated to server, and after that, new messages counts appeared near few subfolders.
Is it possible that somehow this message count is combined with rules? Ant what does whis screwdriver and wrench icon means?

Outlook 2013 and Exchange 2007 not always syncing read status of a message

Out users are experiencing this issue from time to time. Outlook 2013 is using Exchange mailbox as default storage (Exchange 2007 SP3). Sometimes it shows that Inbox has one or few unread messages (Inbox name is bolded and there is a number near it). But
a user can't find any unread messages in the inbox. If he logs to his mailbox via OWA, then he can find those unread messages. But they are marked as read in the Outlook. So it seems Outlook 2013 has issues syncing with Exchange 2007 as we have never experienced
such issues when using Outlook 2007 with the same server.
Any hints on how to make this thing go away, other than instructing users to log via OWA and mark unread messages as read?

Hi,
Switch to Exchange Online Mode, does the issue persist?
It seems to be a sync issue between Outlook and Exchange, make sure the Internet connection is good. Let me know if the issue persist after clicking
Send/Receive All Folders button.
Try to run Scanpst.exe to repair the local data file in case the data file has been corrupted:

Having screen rendering / memory problems with Microsoft Outlook 2013 and full screen mode with large 2560x1440 dual monitors

MS Outlook 2013 seems to work fine for a while until a) enough time passes or b) I have multiple MS Outlook windows open. Then I start to see all sorts of graphical issues ranging from certain parts of the outlook window not rendering to certain functions
locking etc. Occassionally, when I decrease from full screen I get the screens to render correctly, making me think there's something unique with full screen mode that is causing the issue. There seems to me to be quite a bit of memory issues
with this version.
I have a beast of a graphics card, 32gb of RAM, and a fast SSD, so don't think its the machine.
Thoughts?

Hi,
Does this happen to other applications?
If it's specific to Outlook, consider to check the hardware acceleration option:
Go to FILE tab -> Options -> Advanced -> Display -> Disable hardware graphics acceleration, turn this option on or off to check the result.
If the issue persists, please also consider whether any 3rd-party add-ins are interfering with Outlook, we can start Outlook in Safe Mode:
Press Win + R, type "outlook.exe /safe" in the blank box, press Enter.
If there's no problem in Safe Mode, disable the suspicious add-ins to verify which caused the problem.

Outlook 2013 and Exchange 2003

Good day,
Hoping someone can give a link to an official stance from Microsoft. I know that some TechNet pages I have looked at state Outlook 2013 cannot connect to a server running Exchange 2003 (found here:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc178996(v=office.15).aspx) but is there any official support from Microsoft at all for workarounds? I don't mean just using IMAP
but will Microsoft offer support in any way to allow Exchange 2003 to be compatible with Outlook 2013?
I am sure the answer is no but I just wanted to still pose the question to see if there is any documentation stating this.
Thank you

No workarounds available. Exchange 2007 is the minimum supported version with Outlook 2003.

Help needed with 3rd party software and Windows XP on MacBook

My Brother embroidery software has stopped working on the XP side of my MacBook. After all kinds of uninstalling and installing with support from Brother, they decided the problem is not the software and I should "contact my computer company." Since this is really a Mac, would Apple be able to help me with a Windows issue? The genius bar said no, Microsoft says no, so what is the point of buying a using a dual platform machine if no one takes responsibility for helping? I'm very frustrated and could use help from someone who works on both platforms.

*"would Apple be able to help me with a Windows issue?"*
Sorry, but no. Apple does not support third party operating systems and applications.

Help needed with Java 1.4 and xml Runtime problem

I am working on a java 1.3 and JAXP1.1 written code. Now I want to compile and run it using J2SE 1.4. Here are the import statements from the existing code.
import org.xml.sax.*;
import org.xml.sax.helpers.DefaultHandler;
import org.xml.sax.Locator;
import javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser;
import javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory;
import org.xml.sax.Attributes;
import org.xml.sax.XMLReader;
import org.xml.sax.InputSource;
import java.sql.*;
import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;
When I run the existing(using java 1.3 and Jaxp1.1) code I have to include the files crimson.jar and jaxp.jar in the windows 2000 CLASSPATH and works fine.
But when I compile and run it using J2SE 1.4 which has the built in support for the saxp, I thought that I don't have to specify any CLASSPATH for the new 1.4 so I don't specify any Classpath and it gives me the Microsoft "ClassFactory cannot find the requested class" error which means that even thought the new java 1.4 has the xml classes as libraries yet it still requies some .jar files to be listed in the CLASSPATH.
If I am right then what path will work(i.e what jar class I need to add to the CLASSPATH).
Thanks for your help.
RA.

Thanks for your reply,
I think I didn't specify when the error occurs. The ClassFactory related error occurs when I run the program, it compiles without any error.
From what I understood somewhere in the java 1.4 docs, that the new 1.4 has the xml libraries built in by default so one doesn't need to give the classpaths just like we don't give any CLASSPATH for using swing and many of the other java packages. That is one thing.
Second thing is that I also tried to use the java_xml_pack-spring02 and java_xml_pack-summer02; but non of them include the crimson.jar and the jaxp.jar files in them which are the 2 .jar files that makes the program run fine when used under the java 1.3 with combination of the jaxp1.1(which was downloaded seperately and then the CLASSPATH for it was set.).
Can you please help what .jar files do I need to use instead. I tried to use the ones that the new java_xml_pack-spring02 and java_xml_pack-summer02 has for the jaxp in them.
Thanks again.
RA
