MS Office 2013 Share Contacts- No Exchange Server

Thanks for the quick reply E_Willie, but they want this to be real time. The customer is not comfortable with doing the export / import. That is what I will do when I go on-site today, but they want something that will update as users are added.
Thanks

My customer wants to share their MS Office 2013 Contacts with another user in the office. No server or Exchange, just workgroup pc network. I see some free programs on line but would rather get something that we can pay for and have support.
Has anyone got suggestions of program that they have used and know to be good.
Thanks

Setup Microsoft Office 2013 KMS Host on Windows Server 2008 R2

Hi all,
hope someone can help, banging my head against a brick wall here.
Followed this excellent article here -
http://blogs.technet.com/b/odsupport/archive/2013/01/03/how-to-setup-microsoft-office-2013-kms-host-on-windows-server-2008-r2.aspx#pi47623=1
Dont need to install 275817 as its already applied to the server that has the KMS install on it.
When i get to step 3 and double click the exe from the MSDL site i get the cscript window but nothing happens, the window stays blank and then closes, i never get the prompt to enter the licence key for Office 2013 KMS key.
Its a Windows server 2008 R2 install, fully patched and rebooted.
Checked the logs and can find nothing, has anyone seen this or know a fix?
Thanks in advance.

Delegate access to users to create and edit mail contacts in exchange server 2013

Hi,
Can I delegate access to users to create/edit/delete contacts in Exchange 2013, if yes, how?

Hi,
From your description, you want to grant users the permission to manage mail contacts. If I have misunderstood your concern, please let me know.
Based on my knowledge, you need to add these users to Organization Management Role group and Recipient Management Role group.
For more information, here is a thread for your reference, please see the "Recipient Provisioning Permissions" section.

Office 2013 - Templates contacting MS Server

Dear Community,
I've installed Office 2013 Std. on one of our Windows 7 (32 bit) without Office templates. But when I start Word or Excel, the system is always asking for a username & password. This message popups, because our proxy is blocking the connection to: office15client.microsoft.com
We won't allow the access to that and what I don't understand is: we installed without templates, but Office 2013 wants to connect to the internet. Has anyone an idea how to disable that?
Thanks for helping/discussing.

Hi,
How did you install Office 2013 without templates? Based on my test, only Access and Outlook have templates in the installation.
And try to uncheck File>options>trust center>trust options>privacy> "Allow office to connect to the internet" option in Excel 2013 and Word 2013 to check the issue.

Office 2013 (C2R) Connect to the server to view them

I have an Outlook 2013 Click-to-Run installation (version 15.0.4641.1003) that will not download all emails from the server. At the bottom of folders it says, "There are more items in this folder on the server. Connect to the server to view them."
This option is grayed out, though. It is currently running in Cached mode and set to download 12 months of mail. It says Connected to Microsoft Exchange at the bottom. The connection status (taskbar --> right-click Outlook icon --> Connection Status)
shows connected. At the bottom of folders it says, "There are more items in this folder on the server. Connect to the server to view them." This option is grayed out, though. This particular account has had a new Outlook profile built twice in the
last couple of months when it would not connect to O365. This location also has a fairly slow connection. Could the slow connection be causing issues even though it says connected? Looking for any ideas.

Hi,
This message generally means you do not have connectivity with your Exchange server:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2733062/en-us
This might has something to do with the slow connection to Exchange Online. Please first check for updates and install any required ones, then try again. It’s always a good idea to keep current with updates.
Also, do you have a proxy server configured? If your Outlook is going via a proxy server to Office 365, you might want to take a look at this article:

How do I sync my contacts with exchange server?

I have a mac and an ipad and an iphone and my office is all microsoft and pc's. We are running outlook and exchange server. My email works fine. My calendar works "just ok" as it is quirky. The BIG problem is syncing my contacts on all three devices with my company's contact list which lives on the exchange server. What is the deal with this? Is there a work-around?

Let me fill in some blanks. I have a powerbook running Lion and using mail, addressbook and ical. My office is all on pc's and outlook and connected up on our network with exchange server. So here is the issue:
a. It first surfaced when we got iphones. Apple connects to exchange server's email and calendar relatively well but we have a COMPANY contact list that works great on exchange and outlook on everybody's PC's but DOES NOT work with the iphone unless you buy a third-party app that costs like $300.
b. THEN, I decided to get a mac and I have the same problem with the native apple applications (mail, addressbook and ical). Everything works EXCEPT addressbook. Basically, I have to create a fully redundant addressbook that will not talk to the exchange server company contact list.
So my question is really this: I don't want to have a separate contact list for my company contacts that does not sync with the mother ship. I don't like not having all my contacts on all my devices. It seems that there is a problem between the global contact list in exchange and my addressbook contacts on my apple devices.
Does anybody know about this issue and does anybody know how to solve?

Office 2011 Task sync with Exchange Server is overwriting data

Originally posted at answers.microsoft.com. No help there. They suggested I try posting here:
A little background in case it's important:
SBS2008 Server w/ Exchange v7 8.01.0340.000
I run an RDC connection to a virtual server running Office 2010 (this is not the same server hosting Exchange)
I run a Mac with OSX 10.6.8 and Office 2011
I use both of these workspaces simultaneously. Previous to installing Office 2011 last month, I ran Office 2010 from the RDC connection. Everything worked fine from that side.
Now that I'm using Outlook 2011 task management is very strange at times. I'm in MacOS 95% of my day. I'd prefer to use Outlook 2011 rather than 2010 through an RDC connection, which is the reason I purchased 2011.
The issue(s): Suppose I create a task in Outlook 2011, and save it; then, later I go back to make edits. If Outlook happens to sync while I have the task open in edit mode, it will get overwritten with the previously saved version. The only workaround
I have found so far is to hit the cmd-s button nearly as frequently as punctuation. At least I never lose more than a sentence fragment.
However, one thing that I can not seem to resolve at all is completion status. If I ever have occasion to re-activate a completed task--which does happen--toggling the 'completed' button back off and saving the task does not re-set its status back
to active. The 'task complete' flag seems to fall outside of the purview of the save function. So, while hitting 'save' regularly when editing tasks retains the data, every time exchange syncs with the tasks, it will mark the task completed again.
I have double/triple checked the server's time and my workstation's time are the same--down to the second. I've tried closing the Outlook 2010 application on the PC. I've fiddled with the sync services preferences in Outlook 2011 to sync to the
Exchange server, to my computer (and combinations of both); I've set the outlook folder to add new items to the Exchange server and to the local machine. The results are always the same as outlined above.

Hi,
Please start Outlook in safe mode and check whether the issue persists. Also make sure there is no third-party autispam program installed in your machine. If there is, please disable it to have a try.
Personal suggestion, if the issue only happens on your Mac with OSX 10.6.8 and Office 2011, I suggest we can ask a question in Outlook 2011 for Mac forum in Microsoft for more help:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoutlook?tab=Threads
The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us.
Thank you for your understanding.

How do I setup Address Book to view shared contacts on Exchange Server 2010?

At work we have MS Exchange Server 2010. I recently switched from Entourage to native OSX Lion apps Mail, iCal and Address Book. Mail and iCal work fine so far with Exchange (IE. I can add delegates, see their calendars, etc.) but when using Address Book, I can only see my contacts. In Entourage I was able to search other user's contacts and copy them to mine if I desired. Is this not possible with Address Book?

Are you sure you did that right ... because I did a File/Backup Address Book, and the file named included the date. I then copied the file through our Airport network from the Powerbook to a new iMac. The opening Address Book on the iMac, I did a File/Revert to Address Book Backup, which allows you to choose the file. Now the iMac had the same Address Book file as the Powerbook. This looks to me to be the same thing you are trying to do.

Trying to connect a home computer using Outlook 2013 to my business Exchange server 2010.

I have a new Dell XPS with Outlook 2013 installed and the native email client installed. I was able to enter in my exchange 2010 credentials to the native email client and it worked. when I try to enter the credentials for Outlook 2013 I received an error
message.
"the name cannot be resolved. the connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable.
outlook must be online or connected to complete this action"

Hi,
To narrow down the cause, I’d like to recommend the following troubleshooting:
Check if you can connect to your Exchange server externally with another account.
Double confirm the error message when test your RPC over HTTP connectivity.
If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.

Outlook 2010, 2013 on new 2010 exchange server get windows security popup for password

We recently migrated exchange 2003 on 2003 server to Server 2008R2 and Exchange 2010 SP3. The installation had multiple problems and we resorted to Microsoft technical support for the server resolution. On the server level it seems to function
as expected. Our problem is with outlook 2010 and 2013. Some of these outlook 2010 installs existed prior to the exchange 2010 upgrade and worked as expected prior to the upgrade
Now with new machines (never been connected to our Domain) and some existing windows 7 machines with outlook 2010 and 2013, we get a windows security popup requesting the password.
We have spent a couple of weeks reading blogs, how two's and guaranteed fixes that don't fix. The best we can do is start outlook, get the folders to sync and shortly thereafter it will request the password. You can enter the password and
it comes right back requesting the password. You can cancel the request and you will get needs password in the area where it shows connected to exchange server and then will not prompt for another password until you need an update from the server
or you try to send and email. The email will not send until provide a password and immediately press send. Once in the outbox it will require the password again to send and then cancel the popup and repeat the process again.
Outlook test, turn off discovery, remove all credentials do not help. Outlook anywhere turned off. So far nothing seems to help.
Does anybody have a solution to my dilemma?

Hi,
Please check the problematic users' Outlook settings by the following steps:
1. Click File > Account Settings > Account Settings > Change > More settings.
2. In Security tab, make sure "Encrypt data between Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Exchange" option is checked, "Always prompt for logon credentials" is unchecked.
3. Change the logon network security to Negotiate Authentication, and Apply > OK to set it.
Restart Outlook to have a try. If the issue persists, please
re-create Outlook profile to check whether the issue persists.

Mail Delivery betweek Exchange Server 2013 co-existance with Exchange server 2010

Hello Guys
I have a mailflow issue, hoping someone can help with detail description, below is the setup
Exchange server 2010 SP3 with all roles in one server
Exchange server 2013 SP1 with CU6 with all roles in one server - this server is in a different subnet to the 2010 server. I am able to see exchange 2010 databases and mailboxes from Exchange 2013. For testing purposes, I have moved 3 mailbox from 2010
to 2013. These 3 mailbox, is able to send and receive email from Internet but to each other via OWA or Outlook. These 3 mailbox also not able to send to receive email from any mailbox that is still in 2010 server via OWA or Outlook. I am not planning the whole
server cutover in a go and planning to do state by stage mailbox migration so I need mailflow working properly. When I send an email from one of the migrated mailbox that is in 2013 server, I can see that the email leaves the mailbox outbox and sits in the
queue ..
Can someone please provide detailed solution what needs to be configured?
MCITP, MCSA, MCSE,VCP - Consultant, Solution Design, Implementation

Hi,
1.please check the mailbox send and receive quota for exchange 2013 migrated mailbox.
2.Please check the email attributes of the exchange 2013 migrated mailbox because it seems to be a problem with that particular mailbox.
3.Then do the message tracking and that would be the only way to find the where the send messages has gone.
4.Please check and confirm you have an enough space on the disk where exchange queue database is residing.
I think I need to create a receive connector in the 2013 to receive from 2010 ?
No need ,by design exchange 2013 cas server default frontend receive connector will be having an
entire ipv4 and ipv6 segment and anonymous connection is checked by default.
I think I also need to create a send and receive connector for 2013 users to each other?
No need , an intra organisation send connector and the default receive connectors in exchange will be used
for internal mail flow between the exchange 2013 users.
Please reply me if you have any queries .
Regards
S.Nithyanandham

Outlook 2013 not connect with Exchange server 2013 in internal network

Hello All,
I Have two Exchange server 2013 in our environment. Both server install mailbox and CAS role. After configure exchange server 2013, Outlook 2013 not connect in internal network. I have configure outlook manually. i tried by using the suggestion from blog
but not work. Outlook show that Server cannot connect/ server name could not be resolved. in outlook setting i also put exchange proxy setting. In exchange admin center i have changed the OWA, OAB, Auto discover name. But still not work.
I know that outlook can be connect from external by using ssl certificate and publish outlook anywhere but i did my configure from internal network.
Can you please suggest as soon as possible.
Thanks,
Parvez

Hi,
Firstly, I’d like to explain, same with external users, internal users use Outlook Anywhere to connect with Exchange server and use Autodiscover get all settings.
Thus, let’s try the following resolutions:
1. run the following command: get-clientaccessservice |fl autodiscoverserviceinternaluri
2. check if the host name in the above URL is in the DNS server and there is a DNS entry about the host name points to the proper IP address.
3. Check if the above host name is in your certificate.
Thanks,

ICloud backup for contacts and Exchange server

I have my iPhone and iPad synchronizing to an Exchange server at work - this is where my calendar, contacts, and email live. I'm wondering about this "backup to iCloud": if I do, how does this work? What I can't have is another set of contacts/calendar data somewhere that might someday get pushed to my phone and from there *back* to the Exchange server - I've had this problem before and I can't afford to have the correct "master copy" of the data messed up by synchronization from anywhere else. On my iPhone, when setting up iOS5, I didn't disable it, and how when I try to turn off synchronizing contacts with iCloud, it says something like "there's a set of sync data on the phone, delete it?". I don't want it to delete anything that will affect the contacts (etc.) that was correct on the phone, and might get pushed to the Exchange server and delete stuff from there. How will this work and what exactly gets copied to/from iCloud with respect to these things?

Contacts and Exchange server

I got a new MB Air yesterday. Upon setting it up, I went to set it up the same way I have my desktop for my Exchange account. Mail and calendar work fine with my Exchange (office365) account. However, the Contacts application does not. Upon first setup, it gives the error: "The operation couldn’t be completed. (SOAPWebServicesErrorDomain error -997.)" None of my contacts show up. I have tried disabling/reenabling contacts through the Systems Preferences for this account, deleting the Addressbook folder under Library/Application support, deleting the account altogether and recreating, shutting down and coming back up. All to no avail. I checked all setup information against my desktop, and they look identical, yet on the MB Air the error persists. It works perfectly on my desktop, so the server is not at fault that I can tell.
Anyone has any ideas? Running OS X 10.9.4. Thanks.
