ITunes and Outlook Express

Hi, I'm new here. My dad gave my mom a iPod Nano for Christmas and I just got around to installing it last week. When I received my first iPod years ago, I was forced to remove iTunes off of my parent's computer because my father gets his email via Outlook Express and any time he tries to open a video emailed to him, iTunes attempts to do it. The problem is that it isn't compatible with iTunes, so it doesn't work. It does however work with a different program and I am aware of that. When iTunes isn't on this computer his email goes straight to the other program, but for some reason, the minute we install iTunes this changes. I've set the other program as the default, made sure that iTunes isn't the default, and even disabled iTunes to no avail. Has anybody else had this problem? Unfortunately, my father is insistent that we remove iTunes which means that my mother can never add any more tunes to her iPod and we can't share my laptop because my music makes her cringe on a good day. I just want to fix this for her and I've done everything that I can think of. Any aid that you might give me would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Cheolsoo Park and all other IPod/Windows users,
the same problem happens also with IPod mini. So I would like to express my compassion for all of You.
The Outlook sync was really a big scam and obviously just a commercial gag.
I hate that. That usually only happens with Windows products,
My first really bad Apple experience.

  • HT1692 Have recently installed itunes and outlook on a new computer.  Have multiple email accounts set up in Outlook tho only use contacts and calendar in relation to one of these. Cannot sync itunes with the correct contacts and calendars, Help!

    My new computer is 64-bit running Windows 7 pro, SP1 and Microsoft Office 2010 Pro Plus 32-bit
    My phone is a 4S runing iOS 6.1.3
    Very frustrated now that I have recently installed itunes and outlook on this new computer.  Everything worked perfectly ok on my laptop which was also 64-bit Windows 7 and running 32-bit Microsoft Office 2010 Pro.  I have multiple email accounts set up in Outlook tho only use contacts and calendar in relation to one of these. Cannot sync itunes with the correct contacts and calendars, when I sync the calendar and contacts are empty.  Not sure if there is any way to point itunes to particular address books and calendars.
    I have installed and uninstalled itunes 3 times and thank goodness have a backup
    Can anyone help please?
    thanks in anticipation

    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).

  • How can I read my incoming emails in one folder?Like I do in Live mail and Outlook express.

    Now we can only read emails in different folders if I am managing multiple email accounts.
    It does not feel so comfortable as we use Live mail and Outlook express.

    '''Unified Inbox for pop and Imap mail accounts:'''
    If you use the Unified folder view, this will show an Inbox with all emails from all accounts, with sub folder Inboxes for the individual Inboxes for the various accounts. Then you can choose to view the collective Inbox or the individual Inbox.
    This method can be chosen simply and quickly.
    * View > folders > Unified
    '''Setting up Pop mail accounts to use Global Inbox.'''
    Pop mail accounts can be set up to use a Global Inbox in Local Folders.
    Imap mail accounts cannot be set up to use Global Inbox, but can use the Unified view.
    To change Pop mail accounts to use Global Inbox, you would need to move all emails into Local Folders Inbox.
    Then change the settings for each pop mail account.
    Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings for the pop mail account
    click on 'Advanced' button
    select 'Inbox for a different account' and 'Global Inbox (Local Folders)
    click on OK
    You need to do this for each Pop mail account.
    Then close Thunderbird. You must do this before downloading anything otherwise the emails may continue to go to the wrong Inbox.
    Wait a few moments for Thunderbird to fully close and then restart Thunderbird.
    Please read more info on global inbox here:

  • Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express Personal Folders in CreatePDF

    Hello CreatePDF Team
    Share some knowledge with me.  Can my Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express emails in Personal Folders be imported into CreatePDF format from old computer and export to a new computer.
    The new computer is a HP Model which has Window 7 version using Live Window Mail.
    Please let me know and show me the steps to do it.

    Good day Sophia,
    There is no integration between our CreatePDF service and Outlook or Outlook Express.
    Our desktop application, Adobe Acrobat, will integrate with most versions of Microsoft Outlook to allow you to convert your emails to PDF files.
    Please let us know if you have any questions.
    Kind regards,

  • ICloud 1.0.1 Update freezes iTunes and Outlook on PC

    I updated iCloud and Safari last night, restarted the Pc (Win 7 64bit) and iTunes and Outlook both open but freeze immediately.
    I can't get the iCloud control panel to open either. 
    I've killed the iCloud process in Task manager but this makes no difference to iTunes however I have managed to get Outlook to work without iCloud.
    I've reinstalled iCloud but no success.
    I know others are having similar problems so a response from Apple acknowledging this would be helpfull and any info on what's causing it and a workaround would be great.
    I would have tried to create a support ticket on the issure but seemingly you can't do that without Mac hardware and as this is an issue on a PC platform that would seem to be pointless.

    iCloud control panel has been driving me insane for a week now - it just would not open or run and Outlook could not see it properly or use it. But this is the first solution that appears to work thanks to sean-g11 - a brilliant fix that seems to work although I simplified it a bit! I just stopped the process tree APS Daemon.exe *32 and closed outlook and then deleted the file and then repaired iCloud. I could then at long last access icloud control panel so signed out and back in making sure to save everything locally when asked. For the time being seems to have solved the problem so again many many thanks for the fix - I can't tell you how this has been bugging me!

  • Can I sync Outlook and Outlook Express at the same time? Please help!

    Hi, I'm new to BlackBerry so please be gentle.
    I was able to install the BB desktop and sync my BB to Yahoo contacts and Outlook Express.  I would like to also sync it to regular Outlook.  (If you're interested, here's why: I run a small business and I wasn't able to get my website's email to come into regular Outlook so I have to use stinky Outlook Express to get my emails.  However, I want to be able to use Outlook for all the other good stuff - contact, notes, calendar - and have everything on my awesome new BlackBerry.) 
    Is there a way to have both?  When I try to configure it, it just doesn't have an Outlook option.
    If there isn't a way to do this, does someone have another idea for a functional address book? 

    1. Perform the steps in this article here KB02206
    2. Reboot PC
    3. Download the latest version of Desktop Manager, should be 4.7
    Desktop Manager 4.7.0 B50 Multilanguage - With Media Manager
    Desktop Manager 4.7.0 B50 Multilanguage - Without Media Manager
    4. Install Desktop Manager choosing personal email... not work email during installation
    This should solve the communication with outlook
    As for setting up POP on outlook, you need to know the pop and smtp servers, whether its ssl, and the port numbers, plus your username and password
    check all these settings in your outlook express and they need to be the same in your outlook.
    What version of Outlook is it? You may benefit from reinstalling outlook or all of office
    I live in canada so I wont be any hands on help for you unless you want to send me all the email settings and I can test it here and figure it out. Just PM me the info if you want to do that

  • Windows Vista and Outlook Express 2003 on a Satellite A100-014

    Does anyone have the same problem as i am experiencing?
    When i try to reply to an email with outlook express on my computer with windows vista home, if the email is originally an html formatted message, hitting the reply button and starting to type up the message will just close down the application.

    Hello there! thanks for the reply. of course, i made a mistake, i meant to ask about MICROSOFT OUTLOOK in fact, not outlook express. It sometimes happens that when i hit the reply button, it opens up an error message, that prompts me to the VISTA procedure for resolving mistakes, which often doesn't work. But once it did point me finally to a window telling me that there is no upgrading for that error for MS Outlook for windows vista.
    Do you have any advice? you think i should remove and then re-install MS outlook?
    THanks agaiN!

  • Week Number mismatch in SAP Calender and Outlook express

    Hi Gurus,
    One interesting issue ... In SAP calenders (used in portals/ESS/MSS), there are week numbers mentioned at the beginning of each week. And SAP considers the week where 1st Jan falls as the 1st week of the year. Where as in outlook express or the physical calendars distrubuted in organizations, it generally considers the 1st complete week (or majority of days in the week) of the year as the 1st week.
    Say for 2011, week 1 as per outlook express or physical calenders start from 3rd Jan and the previous week is considered as 53rd week of 2010. This is leading to a week number mismatch.
    I believe this is the standard settings ... but is there any settings available through which one can change this week number ?
    Thanks
    Allen

    OK Guys .. .found the solution ... Please refer to note 1434119 .... just upgrade to EHP4
    Hope this helps those who r still facing this issue.
    Thanks

  • Firefox won't take PC online. IE7 and Outlook Express do. Not firewall problem WinXP

    WinXP, Firefox 3.6.13. Starting Firefox doesn't put the PC online if it isn't. Mailwasher, Outlook Express and IE7 all do. Have tried removing the one Firefox entry in Windows Firewall exceptions but this did nothing at all. Can't find anything in existing posts. Problem first started after upgrade to this version of Firefox.

    Hi Lidia.C,
    I understand that you are passionate about fixing this issue and I am sorry that it is so difficult to print.
    It is possible to change the default program that reads pdfs if it does not work from adobe. This can be done from the "3bar" > Options > Applications menu. [[Set how Firefox handles different types of files]]
    Does downloading the file and saving it first, then opening the file in another program allow you to print in the meantime?
    If there is a lockfile in the profile, it may be that preferences are not allowed to be changed. [[How to fix preferences that won't save]]
    I hope this helps.

  • Can I import my emails from Outlook and  Outlook express backup to Mail

    Hi
    I have saved a lot of my emails from when I was using PC, using Outlook. I have since just been using webmail.
    I now want to import it into Mail, as I have an imac that I use all the time. Can this be done? If so how, and how easy is it?
    Also is there a free way to do it, seen a few progs but have to pay for them.
    cheers

    Ah i see, bit of a long winded way but if this is the only way then I'll have to.
    I would have thought you ould go from Outlook/Outlook express to Apple mail straight away though?
    Anyone else please? surely this must have been done when people became Apple Mac users? from PC users?
    cheers

    I'm successfully logged into Homeshare with my old computer and I've tried the methods listed here, but can't get to the "import" button that is supposed to import selected items. Is there an easy way to just take my data (Music and Outlook data including contacts and calendars) from my iPhone 5 and dump it into my new PC?

  • Problems when using outlook and outlook express, cannot send more than app 100 KB.

    Since app 6 weeks ago we have problems when sending pictures etc, we cannot send more than app 100KB. If we send more there is error code
      Socket Error 10053, Error number 0x800CCC0F. Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection.
    I have made no changes to either computer. Restoring the laptop to Nov 2011 made no difference.We use Outlook Exlorer and Outlook.
    When I take my laptop to my neighbors house, who has Time Warner, I can send 10MB files without any problems, using the EXACT same settings.
    Spending over 2 hours with a very informed Verizon technician on the phone did nothing.
    I first blamed our server, turns out the culprit is Verizon. 
    Any ideas?

  • BEFW11S4 and outlook express

    OK, so heres the deal.  I currently have a network using a Linksys Router BEFW11S4 version 4.  I can get internet.  My problem relies on getting email.
    If I have my internet connect directly to my PC, it works fine.  If I try to access my email going through my router I get the following error message:
    The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'pop-server', Server: 'pop-server', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E
    Note that I am using Microsoft Outlook Express 6.  What should I do to get me email working through my router?

    You could try giving your computer DMZ access through the router.  That may help.
