ICloud causing problems with Outlook 2010

Every time I select an email in any of my accounts an html file download box comes up, the only way to stop this is to disable icloud in Outlook  file>options>add ins then manage addins. I can't be bothered with this so will disable icloud completely - waste of time

  • ICloud not syncing with Outlook 2010 Calendar

    First I should say that I had successfully setup iCloud with all my devices:  iP4, iPad2 and Win7 PC with Outlook 2010.  A few days ago I had to reinstall Outlook.  I re-installed iCloud via Control Panel and successfully downloaded the iCloud Calendar to Outlook.  All the devices sync with iCloud but Outlook does not.   Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    Glad that romlee's fix worked for Donawat! This iCloud situation is just a fiasco if you work in Windows and use Outlook.
    I had been having problems with accurate syncing ever since I downloaded the OS 5, which is obviously not meant for the iPhone 4. (Phone has been glitchy too but that is another story.)
    Previously, I was on Outlook 2007 with Windows 7 home premium. While I could get things to work, I was having the same problem that others have: duplicate entries, incorrect entries, entries that just won't show up, etc. After lots of research (and many what I consider wasted hours) I was able to find a fix that worked for me.
    First of all, I want to point out that one of the reasons it doesn't work well is because Apple created a file format for iCloud that does not create a .PST file (which is what Outlook uses). Apple should just be up front about this as they have severely damaged their reputation with Windows users who have iPhones, plus they are wasting a lot of people's time.
    Second, unless you already have a me.com account, you can no longer create one.
    Third, I came to realize that iCloud does not update its records. It just keeps adding the same things over and over again which I theorize causes the duplicates. Even if you merge the calendars, it just creates new calendar threads (the new colored dot entries in calendar lists).
    My goal was to GET RID OF iCLOUD. If you want to keep using iCloud, what I did probably won't help you but please read it and see if an idea to solve your problem arises out of it.
    Before I had yesterday's problem, I took the time and spent the money to upgrade Windows 7 to the Ultimate version, and then updated Office to 2010 from 2007.
    After all the files downloaded and installed, I proceeded to try and make syncing with iCloud work. Foolishly, I thought it would work better if I had the newer software.
    I ended up spending a total of six hours trying to figure out where my Outlook data went, why my calendar and contacts weren't showing in my personal files, and trying to get it back where it belonged. After more research and hours spent updating my data files, I was able to move things back to Outlook personal folders. What I ended up doing was this:
    1) In Outlook 2010, if syncing via iCloud, you will see personal folders and iCloud folders. Open the iCloud folders and look at all the Calendars (it just keeps creating them; there were 5 export to outlook calendars and I think 7 iCloud calendars). Find the calendar that is yours (the one you know is the most recent and has the info you are looking for).
    2) When you identify the correct calendar, open it using list view. (You can access that in Outlook 2010 via the View menu, then use the change view button). The list of dates will show up as a list in date order from oldest to newest. Review this entire list and delete all the duplicates or things you don't want to keep. Once this is done, you are ready to move the file.
    3) After you have your calendar file the way you want it, still in list view, hit control + a to select all, then press the copy to folder button. A window will open with all your files in it; select the calendar -personal folders file and click ok. Change your view to Calendar and you will see that all the items have moved over. WARNING: because of all the weirdness with iCloud, some of your recurrences and other dates may be missing. I found this happened with recurrences rather than appointments because the appointments are duplicated so many times but some other things may be missing.
    at this point, it (the calendar) does not yet show up in outlook today. *You will change your data file in account settings later.*
    4) Go back to the iCloud folders and open the contacts. Select list, select all, and then copy to contacts-personal folder as with the calendar items. Check your contacts there and make sure the list has moved.
    5) Close outlook.
    6) Open iTunes with your phone connected via USB. Under info, switch everything you want to sync back to Outlook. Then close iTunes and unplug your USB connection.
    7) Find your iCloud icon under Control Panel. Select "sign out." It is not necessary to keep a copy unless it makes you feel more comfortable. If you have another backup system like Carbonite you should be okay. Of course, it never hurts to make a copy (but if you do, it takes awhile and it is not clear where it ends up).
    8) Open outlook again; go to account settings. Under data files, select Personal Folders as the default file. You will still see an iCloud archive on your list after you change it.
    9) after you do this, it  will take several minutes for Outlook to switch over to the Personal Folders data file. Be patient. After this is done, you will be able to use Outlook 2010 without the iCloud files showing up or interfering with the function of the software or syncing.
    10) Once Outlook has successfully switched files, close it again.
    11) On your iPhone, go to settings and select the iCloud menu. Turn off iCloud sync on each item you have been syncing. When it asks if you want to keep all the items that iCloud has placed there, select DELETE.
    This is an act of bravery; I had no idea what would happen when I did it. However, it worked out fine because it wiped my calendar and contacts clean on the iPhone. No more duplicates. A bit scary because no more ANYTHING but when I synced the phone again, it all came back -- and no dupes.
    12) after you turn off iCloud on your phone, plug your iPhone into the USB port, turn on iTunes. After iTunes recognizes your phone, it will sync again. All your contacts and calendar items will be transferred back to your iPhone (and no duplicates!)
    I am very pleased that I was able to figure this out, but disgusted at Apple's irresponsibility with claiming iCloud works with everything. It obviously doesn't and I wasted a lot of time and lost some data due to the iCloud.
    In summary: This is what I did to get rid of iCloud. If you want to keep it, I don't know how helpful this will be.
    Reminder: I did this in a Windows 7 Ultimate environment with Outlook 2010. I also have iTunes 10.5.2 (most recent version). Note: In Outlook 2007, 10.5.2 causes a glitch that claims iTunes can't find Outlook even if it is there.
    You can repair the glitch in 2007 by closing all your programs, go to the control panel, then open the Programs menu. Find your Office 2007 program and right click. It gives you the option to repair or uninstall. Select REPAIR and then the windows installer will run. Follow the prompts and then restart. You will be able to see Outlook again from iTunes.
    Hopefully, this will help others not waste time trying to make their technology function smoothly!
    Thanks to the Apple community for the answers I've received.

  • HT4759 Problems with outlook 2010 and icloud

    In outlook 2010, when trying to open up icloud calendar or contacts, I keep getting message, "The information store could not be opened". It worked fine until a few days ago.  The only changes I made was to add a new router to my home network.,  Any suggestions?

    This is a more detailed explanation of the prblem that I have posted o nthe Microsoft Forum:
    I am a home user of Outlook 2010. My outlook is not picking up all my emails from the server. It is patchy.  I have a whole bundle from yesterday which have not been downloaded despite appearing on my iPhone and iPad.  Yesterday I received some emails - and then between 4.30pm GMT and 9.09pm GMT I did not receive 7 emails = including my responses from my iPad which I was sending. Everything appears on my iPhone and iPad, but does not come through to Outlook. No error messages or anything to tell me that there is a problem - just when I want to go back and look I cannot find them in Outlook, and have to reforward from my iPad. I get them when reforwarded so really don't understand what is going on.
    Is anyone else experiencing this?  BT service desk will not help me - say I need to go to the tech people on a paid for basis.  If this is happening to others I guess the problem is with BT not Microsoft?

  • Problems with outlook 2010 IMAP it says : Mailbox doesn't exist

    I have a problem with my outlook at work.
    I am currently using Outlook 2010 as IMAP (excuse me for my bad English)
    There is 1 Category "Harderwijk" where I can't take any mail in or out.
    Whenever i try to put a new mail in the map I get this error: Cannot move items Response from server was: Mailbox doesn't exist. Whenever I try to put a mail out of the Harderwijk map I get this error: Cannot move item, Cannot select map this could be a cause
    of the IMAP-Server or the map is possibly deleted or changed.
    Can someone help me with this?
    I tried to google the answer, but the only responses I saw is that people are going to other mail servers or had to make a new mail. Since this is a bussiness mail we can't afford to lose our e-mails.
    So I need a solution without losing all the mails. Thanks in advance.

  • Problem with Outlook 2010 sync: Which PST file is used for synchronisation?

    I have a problem with sync of my Outlook 2010 calendar with my iPhone. Sync works somehow but it seems that iTunes grabs any calendar but not the one of my Outlook. I looks like iTunes is connected to another PST or some other calendar file on the computer.
    Is there a way to find out where iTunes takes the calendar information from while doing the sync? Any logfile?

    I'm having the same issue.  I work on one file, then move to another and when I go to export it brings up file #1.  I have to close all the other files before I can export file #2. 
    Has anyone helped you with this? 
    I'm using a Mac Pro (8 gigs Ram 500GB HD), running OS X.4.11 and using Fireworks CS4 10.0.3.11.  I just updated it and its still doing it.
    Am also having crashes when working with text in a PNG file.  I have to say I miss the text editor box since the machine wasn't trying to work with font appearances while you're editing text.  Seems like this new "feature" makes Fireworks unstable.  I'm thinking about downgrading to CS2.

  • Smarview problem with Outlook 2010 - 11.1.2.2

    Hi,
    Everytime I start up Outlook I get an error stating Outlook experienced serious problems with the Hyperion SmartView add-in, would you like to disable the add-in.   I select 'no' as I don't want it disabled in Excel.  I only want it to be disabled in Outlook.  I went to the Tech Ref and found this.  However I don't see the 'Others' choice.  Am I missing something?
    To disable Smart View for Outlook only:
    From the Smart View ribbon in Excel, select Options, then Advanced in the left panel.
    Under Others, select Disable Smart View add-in in Outlook.

    Have a look at the windows registry - HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Hyperion Solutions\HyperionSmartView\Preferences\OutlookDisabled
    It should be possible to run a registry update after installing Smart View to update the outlook setting.
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Hyperion Solutions\HyperionSmartView\Preferences]
    "OutlookDisabled"=hex:01
    Cheers

    Nope...the device OS 6.0 has only been released so far (I think) for the Torch. And device OS 6.0 and Outlook 2010 are not linked as far as this issue is concerned.
    Please feel free to post some specifics about the issues you are having and hopefully someone will be able to assist.

    iCloud quit "talking" to outlook about the 2nd week of December.  I was running Outlook 2010 and iOS 7 on my iPhone 5s and it was working flawlessly.  Tried upgrading to iOS 8.1.2 and have just updated to iCloud for Windows 4.0.6.28 ... then signed off and back on.  Calendar and contacts downloaded to Outlook but it is not "live" (new entries for calendar or contacts are NOT updated on the other platform).   I'm hoping I'm missing something simple ... please help!!!

  • Korean language pack causes problems with Outlook email width

    This has been an ongoing problem for me for some time now and I'm hoping someone can provide a resolution to it.
    I had to install a Korean language pack in order to read Korean Word documents.  The problem is that after installing this language pack, it causes some of my emails to appear a lot wider than they should and wider than they appear for others receiving
    the same email.
    There seems to be a trend in that it happens with emails that contain Chinese or Japanese languages.
    I uninstalled the language pack and the problem went away.  Then recently I reinstalled the language pack and the problem returned.
    Does anyone know why this would happen and if there is any way to fix it without having to uninstall the Korean language pack?

    Well, I tried installing all updates (including optional ones), but that did not fix the issue.
    Any other ideas?

  • Acrobat causing problems with Outlook/Word

    The following sequence generates an error
    Open an e-mail message in Outlook using Word as my editor
    Close the message and close Outlook
    The error is "Microsoft Office Word has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience."  If I disable Acrobat in Office and Outlook (when Acrobat is installed), I don't get the error.  So, the error seems to be Acrobat related.  The computer is running Windows XP, Office 2003 and Acrobat Pro 9.2.0.  Windows and Office have all the most recent service packs and updates.  Previous versions of Acrobat have been installed on this computer at one time (version 7 I think and perhaps other versions).  The computer also has Adobe Reader 8.1.7 installed.
    What can I do to get rid of these error messages without disabling Acrobat in Office?
    Thanks for your help.
    Curt

    I had noted your comment about earlier versions, but it has been a problem for several versions. I had not heard about it lately, so it may have been an issue with WORD 2003 and not WORD 2007. WORD 2007 and Acrobat have other problems, but I have not heard about the Outlook issue.
    The message you listed is posted in the MS knowledgebase and one of the items (not necessarily related to Acrobat) recommends an update to OFFICE. That is something that is often overlooked and may be is the fix you are looking for. At least it would be a good idea to run an update on OFFICE and see if that fixes the problem. Even if it does not, the update is probably a good idea (most folks never seem to think about updating office, though Windows updates almost daily at times). Bill

  • Sync problem with Outlook 2010 and BBStorm - no times transfer to Outlook

    Everything seems to sync find except the calendar.  It duplicates appointments on the phone, probably because all appointments it puts on Outlook turn into all day events without times or subjects.  I mean, it's good to know I have something on the calendar that day, but it would be better to know what it is and when to show up.  I try syncing again and the blank appointment duplicates onto the phone and still no details in Outlook.  It says everything worked.  What's up?

    For the record - The Torch does the same thing. 

  • ICloud will not recognise outlook 2010 64bit

    please help. i have a new iphone4s and i want it to sync wirelessly to my PC with Outlook 2010 64bit version. no probs syncing wired. but it won't do using the wireless. hence starting to investigate iCloud interface and found the at iCloud installation does not recognice the outlook version - the Mail / Contacts / Calendars & Tasks with Outlook options are all greyed out and the message at the top says "Install Outlook to use....etc. iCloud supports Outlook 2007 or later. seemingly not!

    i am having the same problem with outlook 2010.  My office computer is shading out the calendar, contacts, mail and tasks.  It works with the browser section.  My laptop at hom had no problem and it uses Wiindows 7 professional.  When I plugged in my iphone it recognized the outlook contacts, email and calendar and worked immediately but it will not work at my office computer that run Office 2010 for Home or Business.

  • I was using Icloud with Outlook 2010 on Win 7 64 bit w/o a problem until I downloaded CP 3.  Now can't open my calendar in outlook - contacts are fine. Also can't open calendar in icloud if I access it with Internet Exp but can if I use Chrome. Fixes?

    I was using Icloud on my PC with Outlook 2010 and Windows 7 64bit.  After I upgraded the icloud control panel to 3.0 my calendar will no longer load and open in outlook nor will it open on icloud if I access icloud with internet explorer.  It works fine on icloud if I access it with Chrome.  I can also access it through IE on another computer.  Something is amiss on my system.  Any thoughts?

    Import the calendar and contacts in Outlook.com. For contacts, export from Outlook as csv and import into Outlook by choosing the Other option (https://people.live.com/import/other?biciid=ImportCatalog) 
    You'll need to save the calendar as an ics file to import it. Select the calendar folder, the File, Save as an save as an ics.

    Hi nprguy,
    It sounds like an earlier version of the BlackBerry® Desktop Software installed on your PC may be conflicting with this installation. 
    I would advise uninstalling both versions of the BlackBerry Desktop Software then reinstalling the latest version.
    The following KB articles should provide more information on the issue.
    "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" when uninstalling BlackBerry Desktop Manager www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB10220
