Mac OS Maverick - Outlook issues

Hi everyone
I have 2 issues in MS Outlook (I'm using Mac OS Maverick)
Firstly, When I go to the search bar and type anything, the search doesn't work. There is no error. It just shows 'No results found'.
Secondly, I'm getting a few mails on my outlook where the MS word, MS excel, MS PowerPoint attachments are being converted to .dat file format. And this .dat file isn't opening.
Please help!

  • Mac OS Mavericks update issues

    Hi Apple Community
    I have a 2011 Macbook Air, 1.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 and Mac OS X 10.6.8.
    I tried to update directly to Mac OS Mavericks from Mac App Store, but after update was completed I seen that my Mac was twice slowly in boot and shut down respect Snow Leopard and the OS drained battery twice too. So I downgraded again to Snow Leopard and these two issues were fixed.
    I've read on the web that these two issues can be fixed by a zero install of Mavericks by using Lion Diskmaker (DiskMaker X). I would say from Apple technics and community member if this procedure is safe and effectively fix the issues of battery drain and system velocity.
    I wait your answers.
    Thanks!

    "Connection reset by peer" usually means your internet connection reset itself.
    Also, do you have sufficient free disk space to save the upgrade?

  • Hi, in our Enterprise environment, we have a single mac with Mavericks version 10.9.2 and Office for Mac 14.4.1. When setting up outlook, we are trying to connect to a mailbox on exchange server 2007.

    Hi, in our Enterprise environment, we have a single mac with Mavericks version 10.9.2 and Office for Mac 14.4.1. When setting up outlook, we are trying to connect to a mailbox on exchange server 2007. We put in the EWS details in the server field since our autodiscover function is not functioning. But still it doesn't work. There are no errors, no popups. We turned on the logging and in the logs, it says a error of -3259. We are stuck and any help will be really appreciated.

    I have a customer experiencing exactly the same issue. Their computer is running Windows 7 Pro with Office 2007 SP3. After seemingly exhausting all troubleshooting options, I backed up their data, formatted the hard drive and performed a clean install of
    Windows and all their applications. It didn't solve the problem!
    What's strange is the customer also has a laptop computer, running the same version of Outlook, and that doesn't experience any problems connecting to Office 365 on the same network.
    My next step is to send the customer a new ADSL modem/router to try.
    I have another customer on Office 365, also running Outlook 2007, and they also experience issues with emails sitting in the outbox while Outlook displays the status message “Outlook is trying to retrieve data from the Microsoft exchange server outlook.office365.com.”
    In this case Outlook doesn't freeze/stop responding, like it does for the first customer I mentioned.

  • ISSUE: OS Compatibility Mac OS Mavericks 10.9.1(13B42)

    I found an issue using the Extrude Filter, Made both Adobe and Apple aware of this issue but it seem Adobe says this is an issue with Mavericks, Apple says this is a Adobe issue.  I got the same results in Photoshop CS4 and Photoshop CC  then I came accross this post.
    I believe this post has wrong information.

    I found a possible answer to this in another thread "Why does Magic Mouse keep disconnecting?" https://discussions.apple.com/message/23492457#23492457
    According to that thread it may have to do with the depth of the recess in the battery compartment in the Magic Mouse, and the variance in the size of the nodes on AA batteries. In that thread it appears that a solution was found by folding a square of aluminium foil to fill up the extra space in the battery compartment. I have not tried this yet, but I will and I will see if that helps.

    When open Word (Office 2011 on Mac), it will start opening all previous files on the mac until it crashes with error. The problem duplicates when force quite MS Word. Reinstall Office 2011 won't fix it. Deleting com.microsoft.word.plist won't help. No duplicated

  • UAG problems with OSX - same problem with Mac Mail and Outlook 2011 (via EWS)

    Hi folks,
    I'm trying to fix the last snagging issue I have with OSX clients in a UAG / Exchange 2010 deployment:
    When trying to connect Mac Mail or Outlook 2011 the connections are very slow to start up, both at initial config and thereafter.
    On connection I see lots of the same error re Session Cookies in UAG and no connection in the mail client. If I leave it for a few minutes, sometime many minutes, the errors stop and I eventually get a working connection.
    The error is:
    "Sesson Attempted to Access Restricted Application"
    User with source IP address x.x.x.x  tried to access application Exchange EWS that was restricted that was restricted for the session. This might indicate an intrusion attempt by misusing the session cookie.
    Has anyone got any suggestions on how to fix this ?
    Many thanks
    Steve

    Ruud, no, we didn't find a solution, or rather our solution (so far) is to tell users not to use Mac Mail and to use Outlook 2011 instead, which seems to work fine (after some Office updates!)...and we haven't upset anyone with that requirement
    (yet).
    There are some very long discussions on Apple support forums about the whole Mavericks / Mac Mail / Exchange 2010 issues.
    I do hope to have another go at this problem sometime soon, I'm sure there must be a solution (and my money says it relates our hardware load balancers).

  • Printing problem with HP laserjet 1100A after upgrading to Mac OS Maverick

    Good afternoon,
    I have always been able to use my HP Laserjet 1100A with my iMac till I upgraded to Mac OS Maverick.
    After giving a printing order just one order will be carried out.
    In case I have 3 printjobs I have te restart the iMac twice to carry out all the print jobs.
    I am using USB for connection.
    When I use the printer with my Windows computer (Windows 7) there is no problem at all with the required printjobs.
    I guess the driver Gutenprint v5.2.3 is the cause of the problem.
    Is there a new printerdriver available?
    Thanks in advance.
    Fred

    I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial printer. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/
    I have provided the HP LaserJet 1100 All-in-One Printer series Support page.
    I hope this helps.

    Your Mac is definitely one of the supported models? http://www.apple.com/uk/osx/specs/
    If so, what happens when you try to download? Is it a case of nothing happens? If so, take a look at the suggestions under 'Stalled Download' in this link:
    http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2013/10/mavericks-issues-and-fixes/#slideid-23477 1
    Also, some usrs have found that logging out of the Mac App Store and then back in again and starting over has kick-started the download. It seems that the 5+gb download can take a long time to give any feedback as to what's happening.

  • Mavericks permission issues with Windows Server deduplicated shares.

    We have a number of 10.9-10.9.3 - Mavericks - machines installed throughout our facility. Much of the user content is pulled from shares stored on our Windows Server 2012 fileservers with deduplication enabled. I have found that files newly written or unoptimized are able to be accessed without issue - read, written, modified, etc. Once the file gets optomized/deduplicated and Windows adds the P & L attributes - sparse and symlink - the Macs running Mavericks begin to have access issues.
    Once the files get deduplicated, users begin receiving read access errors when copying files (see error1 below). This happens when copying to folders within the current folder tree or copying somewhere to the local system. If you 'stop' the copy operation and retry a few more times, it may eventually work for the specific instance but fail again later. I am however, able to copy these files without issue via the terminal.
    Other systems running 10.7 do not experience the same issues and are able to access file server resources without issue. Many of the systems having issues are newer and thus not able to be downgraded to 10.8 or 10.7.
    I have tried finder replacements such as Pathfinder but the results are the same. I know this is at least similar to the issues many Mac users are already experiencing and posting about but I haven't seen it directly linked to deduplication and the attributes written by Windows server. Has anyone seen this issue? Have any solutions been found? 
    Error 1:
    When copying files after the PL attributes have been set by deduplication.
    "One or more items can't be copied to "Foler" because you don't have permissions to read them.
    Via the system.log, I am also seeing the following error when accessing these deduplicated file shares. The reparse point tag listed below is "IO_REPARSE_TAG_DEDUP"
    Reported error:
    "smbfs_nget: filename.ext - unknown reparse point tag 0x80000013"

    This is a 'known problem' as discussed on the MacWindows site, see http://www.macwindows.com/More-on-OS-X-conflicts-with-Windows-Server-Deduplicati on.html
    It appears to still affect Mavericks 10.9.5 at least from the lack of any positive reports to the contrary. It is perhaps a bit late but it would have been worth signing up for the public beta of Yosemite and testing that and if needed reporting it as an issue for Yosemite as this will be getting more bug fix attention than Mavericks now.
    I would agree turning off de-duplication is not a desirable solution, however other possibilities to consider are installing the standard Samba software on a Mac and using that instead of Apple's SMBx software. This is done by using the SMBup installer See http://eduo.info/2013/07/13/smbup-faq it does not officially list Mavericks but I did see at least one report that it still worked. A second possibility is to install ExtremeZ-IP which installs an AFP server on to your Windows Server and also gives the bonus of supporting Spotlight searches.
    Note: You should only try SMBup on a test setup first.

  • Cant Get Mac Mail ( or Outlook 2011) to connect to Excange erver

    When connecting via IPAD it took 30 seconds to set up.
    I cant get it running from MAC Mail nor Outlook 2011 for MAC.
    Exchange "Server not responding".
    It runs great from Outlook Web Access on the mail or from VmWare running Win 7 with Outllok 2007
    H E L P !!

    +1. Me, too. Any solutions? Every few months I spend a lot of time looking for workarounds for this issue. I tried with Mail, and recently I tried the new Microsoft Office. No luck. I work from home and the company I work for uses an exchange server. I'm stuck with Entourage 2008. It's a real bummer.

  • I was going to purchase Office for Mac 2011, including Outlook.  However, I am hearing many problems with this software including the inability to sync Outlook with iPhone and iPad

    I currently sync my iPhone and iPad with Outlook on my Windows Desktop, but want to switch and still do this on my new Mac running Lion.  However what I am reading about the nightmares of syncing with Outlook in Office for Mac 2011 is making me think twice about going down this road.  What an awful situation of purchasing a Mac and being potentially stumped by 'Office for Mac 2011'.
    I want to continue using Microsoft Office including Outlook for my business applications - but on the Mac.  I like Keynote for presentations, however I also have to create presentations in PowerPoint for some business situations.  So, although I don't ideally want to put Windows onto my Mac, would it be more efficient and less hassle to use Parallels 7, Windows 7 and Office 2010, rather than endure the issues associated with OFM 2011?
    If I decide to use Parallels 7 and Windows 7 am I then into using software to protect against virus' and malware?
    I wouldn't be asking this question if Office for Mac 2011 (including Outlook) wasn't a problem - sadly from what I'm reading, it is. 
    Thank you in anticipation.

    I just resolved my Outlook 2010 + iPhone Calendar sync issue today :  if you have multiple email accounts set up in Outlook (like I do), then you'll find that each account has it's own Calendar (a rather pointless feature IMO).  However you probably only use one Calendar like most people, and what has happened is that the mail account which is set as default for Data Files is not the one you are using.  Try this:
    Outlook 2010 -->  Account Settings -->  click "Data Files" tab -->  select as default whichever acct. is associted with the Calendar you use.  

  • Mouse/program freezes in Mac OSX Mavericks

    I recently updated my 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7 iMac to Mac OSX Mavericks (8GB RAM).
    I'm using an Apple wireless bluetooth mouse and keyboard.
    I'm now getting frequent freezes. The cursor can be moved but I am unable to write or click on any window. Only way to resolve this issue is a hard reboot.
    Additionally, programs (Safari, Microsoft Office) sometimes freeze/stall with the spinning beach ball.
    Overall the system is much more sluggish.
    Any suggestions ?
    I'm wondering if these problems are related to syncing services,  e.g., Adobe Updater (really annoying when it interrupts/blocks workflow daily with another update check) or iCloud and Dropbox (check mark indicates up to date) -  although superficially I don't see them active at the time of the freeze.

    Hi farpelix,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your Mac is unresponsive and you think it may be related to software you've installed, try testing by booting into safe mode and creating a test user:
    Mac OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1564
    Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1455
    If your system is responsive is responsive safe mode, this usually means OS X is fine, and the issue is caused by conflicting software in your user account.
    Next, see if it behaves normally in a new user account. The steps in this article also apply to creating a new user in Mavericks:

  • Exchange Archive folder disappears from Mac Mail (Mavericks)

    My Exchange 2013 Archive mailbox folder keeps disappearing from Mac Mail (Mavericks). When it does, the mailbox/folder shows 0 messages and 0 size in the Account info box. To temporarily solve the problem, I disable the account, quit mail, and reenable the account. Then the Archive folder/mailbox reappears. This happens several times per day. By the way, the folder is still visible on Outlook Web Access and through the Outlook client. It is simply invisible to Mac Mail. Does anyone know how to solve that?

    Well, somehow, it disappeared after 10.8.2. and the following fixes which had no numbers.
    Mail startet and told me, that Mailbox is somehow adapted and now everything works fine.
    Strange....
