Microsoft Outlook 2011 can't search emails

Since upgrading to Lion, I can't search emails in Microsoft Outlook 2011 (which I also had to upgrade to since Microsoft Office 2004 wasn't compatible with Lion). Is this a software conflict that can be resolved, or a more serious issue?

Outlook 2011: Can't send emails with one account?

Hi,
I can't send any emails with one of my accounts on outlook 2011 even though I can receive emails. To clarify, I've never been able to send any emails from this account with Outlook 2011; I always have to go on the internet to do that. My main account works
fine, though. I don't really know much about email accounts. Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks

Hi,
I think Clark's advice is leading you to the correct direction, but since I don't have Outlook 2011, if the problem persists, I suggest you post the question to Office for Mac forum:

Microsoft Outlook Express can not send email

hi,
i have setup a mail server w/ mac osx snow leopard mac mini, and i have setup the smtp and open relay to spesific IP address.
Now everything looks fine for all the users, except for the users that using outlook express, they can retrieve emails, but can not send.
the error message is like this :
The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by the server. Server Error: 504, Error Number: 0x800CCC79

probably your smtpdhelorestrictions.
In /etc/postfix/main.cf, look for this
smtpdhelorestrictions = _________
If you see this:
smtpdhelorestrictions = rejectinvalid_helohostname rejectnon_fqdn_helohostname
Change it to this:
smtpdhelorestrictions = permit_mynetworks permitsaslauthenticated rejectinvalid_helohostname rejectnon_fqdn_helohostname
Then stop/start mail service.
If that doesn't solve it, please post the unedited output of 'postconf -n' run from Terminal.

I have updated to ios 7 and Microsoft outlook web access for work emails no longer works nor my remote access can you help

I have updated to ios 7 and Microsoft outlook web access for work emails no longer works nor my remote access can you help

This happened to me as well. I read somewhere else that resetting the network settings (General, Reset, Reset Network Settings) would help and it partially did. I get half (the folders) of the Web Access screen rather than a blank screen. I tried tihs a few more times and got the right half (the messages) on occasion but never the whole web page.

Microsoft Outlook 2011 Stopped Working

Not sure if this is the right place to be posting this, but I don't know where to post it and really need some help.
Microsoft Outlook 2011 just stopped working, other Office apps run just fine. When clicking Outlook to launch, it bounces 2 - 3 times and just stops launching without an error msg.
I've tried launching it under another user acct and it opens fine.
Tried creating a new Office Identity under the user acct where it doesn't launch, and that didn't fix the problem. Tried rebuilding identity, tried removing preferences from User/Library/Preference/Microsoft.
Any ideas? Thank you!

I got Outlook to launch by completely deleting my "Identity" and creating a new one. Is there any way to get it to actually repair the old Identity or am I now going to lose everything?
Unless you have a backup of the identity you deleted, you've already lost everything. That's where all of your contacts and emails are stored.
If you still have the old identity, put it on the desktop and try doing an import into the new identity you created.
In answer to the general complaints that "it doesn't work":
Any program can have issues from computer to computer. Various things can cause issues that shouldn't, or wouldn't otherwise exist. I'm running the latest version of Office 2011 and have absolutely no issues with it. And haven't from the day it was released.

Can I search email archive on iCloud server from iOS device, or can I only search what it has downloaded locally?

Can I search email archive on iCloud server from iOS device, or can I only search what it has downloaded locally?
I currently have an iPhone and iPad, and am soon changing over to a Mac. When that happen I'd like to try to see what I can migrate over from the Google ecosystem to the iCloud ecosystem.
1) Currently I have the Gmail iOS app (a webapp container) that can search server-side of several years of email archive. Can iCloud do this using the iOS native mail application? Or is the search just limited to what the device has downloaded locally?
2) Do I have to use a @me.com address for the full iCloud email sync to take place between server, Mac, and iOS devices?
Believe it or not I've read quite a bit about the iCloud services, but the answers to these questions were far from clear. Many thanks for the help.

2) iCloud only syncs email between .me/.mac addresses. For other accounts like google, you set up the account in the mail app and if they're IMAP accounts, you can sync between the google server and any devices you have defined that account on.
I'm not absolutely sure about 1) since I haven't had to search going back years - I use MailSteward for that on the mac. On my iPhone/iPad, when I go into a mailbox and the emails are not immediately available, it downloads them. I suspect for a search, you need the emails downloaded.

Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac sync Contacts and Calendar issues

OK, so I have a Macbook Pro with OS X Mountian Lion. I have Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac installed. Asked @BlackberryHelp on Twitter how to sync my Blackberry Torch with Outlook as it seems to default to using the builtin Apple Contacts and Calendar instead of Outlook. So they sent me the link to KB19148: "How to synchronize organizer data in Microsoft Office for Mac between the BlackBerry smartphone and a Mac computer using BlackBerry Desktop Software". So I turned on the Sync Services in Outlook and it gave me the dialog box confirming that everything was synced. And it appeared to copy and sync whatever Contacts in the Apple Contacts and calendar entries in the Apple Calendar into Outlook and vice versa. Cool since that's what I wanted.
Then I tried using the Blackberry Desktop Manager to sync everything to my Blackberry Torch 9810. Everything looked like it synced until I opened my Blackberry and all my Contacts were gone. Same with my Calendar entries, except that the Calender entries were hit and miss to whatever copied over (some Calendar entries were missing and others were duplicates). Checked the Apple Contacts and all of them were gone. But when I opened Outlook, everything was there and all OK.
So am I missing something? Turning on Sync Services in Outlook should sync all my Contacts and Calendar with my Blackberry when I use Blackberry Desktop Manager, correct? So why is it still syncing with the Apple Contacts and Calendar (and why did it delete all my Apple Contacts and mess up my Apple Calendar)?
Good thing I backed everything up first so restored everything. But I have all my updated Contacts and Calendar in Outlook and I still need to sync all of that. I don't want to manually do it. So how do I fix this??

After a bit of googling I think you mean the notation "domain\username", i.e., a backslash separator but no leading backslash.
I am not familiar with that notation but apparently it is valid in some contexts. I googled "os x "domain\username"" to confirm this notation. Here's one of the hits that shows the notation:
OS X Lion: Guidelines for connecting to a DFS namespace via SMB
I think "DFS" is a distributed file system. That's as much as I know about this.

I am using Microsoft OUtlook Web Access for work email and I am losing functionality. What do I do?

I use Microsoft Outlook Web Access for work emails when not at the office4 and I cannot/do not have any options to enlarge text or change fonts, etc. What do I need to do to make it work as if IE were my default browser?
Thanks.

Outlook Web App (new name) on Exchange Server 2010 should be quite full featured. The Outlook Web Access supplied with Exchange 2003 didn't offer a very good experience for browsers other than IE...
Could you describe where the problem with fonts is: when composing messages, or when reading/working with the UI?
