Office 365 on mavericks incompatible

After trying on two Mavericks computers and two hours of office 365 support it is clear that the Office 365 version of Office 11 is incompatible with OSX Mavericks. For new installs you are unable to validate Office 2011 install using your Office 365 credentials. If Office 2011 is already installed after a Mavericks upgrade the result is that your Office 365 credentials are no longer recognized so you cannot sync between Mavericks and Office 365.

Dunno what issues others may have, but as of latest - meaning 10.9.2 - version of Mavericks, I've had no connection issues with OSX, the Office 365 Outlook server and either Outlook 2011 or Apple Mail.
An apparent difference. I did not purchase Office for Mac 2011 via Office 365. I didn't like the 'lease' arrangement of that route.
I just connected to Office 365 the day before this post and after installing 10.9.2. Things may have changed on one or both sides.
While I don't have connection issues, at least for mail and calendar, I am not able to do anything with the Global Address List associated with my O365 account. That's true for both Outlook and Apple's contacts. Outlook works as described - just fine everywhere but in Contacts! Oh, the irony!
Apple contacts just spins it's wheels. One wonders why Apple has contacts as a checkbox for Exchange account syncing. Some might be of the opinion that is misleading - if it don't work, no matter whose fault, don't advertise it. But that's just an opinion some folks might have.
Bottom line, though, in answer to VinMan2999, Mavericks DOES work with Office 365 mail accounts. I have no answers why yours doesn't except, perhaps, because I didn't buy my copy from Office 365.
Update
I did nothing special. Opened Mail.app, added account, picked Exchange, put in username/pw for account. Got the server address from a M$ help page (it is outlook.office365.com) and put that in the server box. Needed to do that for Outlook 2011, too. Then I checked and unchecked what I wanted to use - Mail and Calendar in the Apple Account Preferences.
I believe the newest Mavericks update does talk about fixes in the Mail.app.

  • Be Warned - Mavericks is not compatible with Microsoft Office 365!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Be Warned - Mavericks is not compatible with Microsoft Office 365!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
    I upgraded to Mavericks on 4 seperate computers, an 2 iMacs, MBPro and an MBAir and ALL four no longer connect to Microsoft Office 365 email accounts either with Office 2011 or the built in Mac apps.  Apple support says "Microsoft knew for a year that Mavericks was coming out and it their job to make it compatible".  I repsonded that their own Apps like Mail, Contacts and Calendar don't work either and they attempted to trouble shoot those apps only to no avail after 4 hours and a Mavericks reinstall.  I have also tried an Office reinstall.
    Right now I am no where, stuck between two companies who say it's the other guys fault......

    Me again:
    A colleagues more formal description of the problem:
    We have had a major problem with people working directly off of the afp reshares with MS Word.
    Word creates "Word Work Files" and usually is able to store them in either "Share/Temporary Items/uid/TemporaryItems/" or "Share/.TemporaryItems/folders.uid/TemporaryItems" as long as permissions are correct.
    This works under 10.5.7 seed release 9J39 with direct attached storage, but with the Xsan reshared the word work files appear in the same folder as the opened document even though the permission for temporary items are correct.
    This causes a number of issues, one being that if one user has a document open and another clears out the word work file then the open document cannot be saved.
    Another issue that we have seen is where the word work file is created and then the original document disappears (although I think this may be another user housekeeping the word work files again).
    We have tried to persuade users to work on local copies of the documents instead, but old habits die hard...

  • Problems with Calendar.App in Mavericks syncing to Office 365

    About three weeks ago, my 10.9 OSX Calendar application stopped showing any calendar events for the sync'd Exchange account, my corporate e-mail account hosted in Microsoft Office 365.
    I have confirmed that Outlook for Mac 2011 and also Outlook on PC (in Fusion) both work correctly, also I've checked with another Exchange service and it appears to sync ok.  So it's something specific to the hosted Exchange environment, however as it's a cloud service my support options are highly limited.
    I was hoping someone might have an idea on how to progress this further, here are some details of the path I've walked.
    1 - Un-checked the Calendar option in the Internet Accounts Section, reboot, start Calendar, let it sit for a while and re-enable.
         No luck, tried several times
    2 - Removed the whole Exchange account, re-booted and re-added
         No luck, tried several times
    3 - Tried starting to remove caches and other temp files as per other suggestions
         No luck
    4 - Took drastic action and re-installed Mavericks from scratch
         No luck, exactly the same issue
    5 - Tried removing all calendar events from my calendar, disable calendar and re-enable calendar
         No luck, exactly the same issue
    The other gmail account that I sync with works just fine, as did my Exchange account up until a few weeks back, would be wonderful to know what has happened.
    Here is a log file extract that is somewhat interesting, however of no value that I can find at all sadly.

    It turns out that I may have not waited enough time for the wipe of all of my existing calendar appointments to sync through.
    I created a few more in outlook, deleted them, checked via the office 365 web calendar they were deleted.
    Then I waited another 15 minutes, created the Exchange/Office365 account from scratch, and magic I appear to be back!
    (until something else goes wrong that is)

  • Office 365 for Mac OSX 10.9.1 Maverick incompatibility?

    Tengo una Macbook Air con sistema operativo OSX 10.9.1 Maverick y compre y descargué por internet el Office 365 for Mac (office 2011) de la pagina de office.microsoft.com. El producto no se activa porque según el Departamento Técnico de Microsoft el sistema operativo OSX 10.9.1 no tiene las actualizaciones para activar el Office 365. Por lo tanto el problema es de Mac y no de Microsoft.
    Quisiera saber si esto es así y si existe una forma de acutalizar la configuración de Mac o un programa de soporte de Maverick para el Office 365. Si esto no fuera posible deberia devolver el producto de Microsoft que compre y que dicen que es compatible con Mac OSX 10.6 y posteriores versiones?

    Just found a solution which involves resetting the printer settings:
    To Reset the Printer Setting:
    1) Open "System Preferences"
    2) Select the "Print & Scan" pane
    3) Right click (or control click) anywhere in the "Printers" window (in the white space below any of your existing printers)
    4) Select "Reset Printing System..."
    That will reset the printing settings, and should happen immediately. You'll know if it worked because any existing printers you had previously set up will disappear from your printers list. Once the system has been reset, click on the "Add printer" button and add the printer that you're trying to add.
    As any other printers you had previously added are deleted you'll have to add them again.
    Hope that helps

  • Is Thunderbird incompatible with Office 365?

    Our University recently migrated to Office365. According to our IT help desk Office365 doesn't "talk" with Thunderbird. All installation has been performed, but I get this "Login to server imap-mail.outlook.com failed" when I try to log in. Incoming and outgoing server settings are supposedly correct per our IT page. So, it seems there is some sort of block or language problem either at the Office365 exchange server or the Thunderbird code. Are there any reasonable solutions to this issue?

    Hi GregAld,
    There was another question about this: [http://it.ucmerced.edu/get-help/guides-faqs/emailcalendar/office-365-emailcalendar-configuration/thunderbird-windows]
    You may have to edit the advanced settings for example like what cornell does: [http://www.it.cornell.edu/services/thunderbird/howto/config-exchange.cfm]
    I hope this helps, I do not know how the 365 server is configured, this will depend on the administrator.

  • Will this API eventually support Office 365 and other hosted Lync Services?

    I just noticed in the intro forum post that this SDK only supports on-prem Skype installations. I was hoping to use the SDK against an Office 365 install. Is it in the roadmap for this SDK to support hosted Skype? Are there any estimate timeframes you can
    share with us?
    Many thanks,
    James.

  • Mac Mail can't resolve Office 365 address adding account

    I'm just putting this out there, I'm sure it will be addressed soon.
    Just loaded up a VM or Yosemite on my Macbook Pro so I can start testing it for our network environment.  First major glitch - Mac Mail will not resolve an Office 365 email address and allow you to add the account to Mac Mail.  This is huge considering many of our clients are hosted using Office 365 for their corporate email.  Mavericks never had issues with this, hoping its a quick fix without the need of a work around.  Ironically using Outlook for Mac 2011 works just fine, which is pretty strange to me considering it still has to resolve outlook.office365.com for the server names in autodiscovery.
    Lets go Apple....this OS looks great, don't make it your MSFT Vista!

    Mavericks Mail has had problems with Exchange. Many have been resolved but at this time, Outlook for Mac is a better Exchange client than Mail from reports that I have seen.
    I'm trying a trial of Rackspace Exchange Email wondering if its Office 365 specific.
    How are you pointing your MX & cname setting to two different services?
    You said another user was able to setup. Is there any difference in OSX and email client. Compare settings.
    What error are you getting.

  • Office 365: dropdown menus don't stay open + theme problem

    Hello
    I recently encountered some problems that make the Office 365 unusable. Could you help me figure it out?
    Problems:
    These problems appear in every office program: word, excel, power point...
    Windows are in some very old 98 looking theme
    Office programs appear to be in a window within a window (Image 2)
    Dropdown menus in ribbon and in settings stay open less than a second - makes them unusable
    Situation:
    Office worked well for 2 months, then problems started
    Graphic drivers are up to date
    Windows is up to date
    All the other programs work normally
    No recent hardware changes
    Comodo Internet Security installed recently
    Automatic updates enabled for pretty much everything
    When reinstalling, even the installation windows goes to 98 theme
    My actions:
    Selected default theme from control panel, no effect
    Restarted, no effect
    Reinstalled Office (Image 1), no effect
    Disabled Comodo Internet Security, no effect
    Tried running in safe mode, no effect
    My setup:
    Acer R7-572
    Windows 8.1 Pro N
    Office 365
    I would post some screenshots, but seems that it is not allowed for me.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Hi,
    Seems you've already tried lots of steps, including a complete reinstallation of Office, but to no avail. As per your description above, I'm thinking it might be something on Windows side that is interfering with Office product.
    Have you ever tried to disable the hardware graphics acceleration in Office? Sometimes a recent updated video driver might be incompatible with Office. Please have a try and see if it helps:
    Open any Office 2013 component, for example Word 2013, then go to FILE>Options>Advanced
    Tick the option of "Disable hardware graphics acceleration" under the section
    Display
    If issue persists after the steps above, I would suggest we try to perform a clean boot in Windows and then verify result. This will help to determine whether any program conflict is causing the issue:

  • Ical office 365 delegate calendar view

    Hi
    People in my company have combination Mavericks 10.9.5 and Office 365 small business.
    We are using Exchange sync account.
    People share calendars (read only) and some users have own calendar and about 15 calendars other colleagues (from delegation).Plus some Google, iCal etc calendars.
    Mostly happens that when user have selected own calendar, 2-3 other people in iCal  then after restart/sleep Mac show iCal ALL calendars after.
    People are very angry becouse thay have to change selected calendar
    Is it some way to fix selected calendars ?
    Thanks

    I've been battling this ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion. One moment I can fiddle with it and it works. The next day, it may quit syncing. Or, it may go a month or two before melting down again. It's driving me nearly insane. Apple truly needs to address this. Outlook is a dog with fleas that can't hunt for crap. I loaded it in desperation. It *****. Please Apple, fix iCal syncing to Exchange!

  • Can I run Windows Office 365 through VM Fusion on my Macbook Pro?

    I need to utilize an Outlook 2013 for Windows feature not available on the Mac 2011 version. Specifically, I need to download messages from Dropbox and open and save them with attachment in native .msg format.
    Has anyone had any experience running Windows Office 365 (on Windows 7 or 8) through VM Fusion?  Potential client is very specific about this feature and it's a non-negotiable.
    Thanks, Suzanne

    I use Office 2012 running Windows 7 Pro under Parallels, so I'n GUESSING that it would work just fine under VM Fusion.
    I've encountered no problems whilst running Windows or any Windows-only apps under Parallels. The same should apply under VM Ware as well.
    Good luck,

  • Unwanted contacts synced with Office 365 and Exchange 2013

    I have an issue with unwanted contacts on Mavericks (and formerly Mountain Lion) syncing with our hosted Exchange server on Office 365. The problem began when the Office 365 service upgraded to Exchange 2013. I do not use iCloud at all.
    The unwanted contacts are only visible when I click on “All Contacts” within Contacts.app and do not appear in any hosted or local contact group. They are synced to all our macs, but are not visible on anything else, including Outlook.app or OWA, or our iPhones and iPads. Each user with a hosted Exchange account on Office 365 has the same problem, but with a different set of unwanted contacts. Normal contacts behave as expected for each user and device.
    The format of the unwanted contacts is simple. They contain nothing but an email address (no name, phone, IM or other details) which leads me to think they are automatically generated recent or suggested contacts, although some of them are quite old. We use Mail.app exclusively on our macs.
    I can delete these unwanted contacts one at a time from any of my macs, and although they appear to be deleted on the server (resyncing another mac deletes them there too), they will reappear (resynced from Exchange) within a day or two and they have to be deleted all over again. It is a frustrating and time consuming process.
    My questions then:
    can I prevent Contacts.app from the syncing these contacts?
    or can I prevent Mail.app from presumably sending them to the server in the first place?
    or is there a command I can issue through Powershell to tell Exchange to delete and not retain these contacts?
    Any other suggestions to prevent this behaviour would be most welcome.

    I'm having this exact same issue.
    Have you seen this thread? https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5252673?start=45&tstart=0

  • Error while saving a workflow via sharepoint designer Office 365: Server-side activities have been updated. You need to restart SharePoint Designer to use the updated version of activities

    Hi,

    Can you please provide more insight?
    Thanks.

    Hi Rake,
    You can compare your PC and another machine which is working, see if it is related to IE settings(e.g. SharePoint urls in trusted sites zone).
    And you can try re-install the SharePoint Designer 2013 with same version and bit-version(32/64) on your PC like another machine, then check again.

    Hi,
    To narrow down this issue, please take your time to collect some information:
    Does this happen to message sent to an individual, to a domain, or to a network?
    Does it happen for messages sent to recipients within your organization, or to recipients at other domains?
    What do the SMTP protocol logs show when attempting to send the messages?
    Refer to:

  • Error Extending 2012 R2 AD Schema for Exchange 2013 RTM/CU6/CU7 (for Office 365 attributes)

    Hello all,
    I am a sysadmin at a 3 campus school, and am trying to extend our AD schema to include Exchange 2013 attributes so that we can configure groups synced to Office 365 using DirSync. However it keeps failing at the same point each time.
    I have tried with RTM first, and then CU6, but I keep getting the same error and am unsure how to fix it.
    "repadmin /showrepl" says that our 3 DCs are replicating with no issues, and I'm trying to extend the schema using an "Enterprise Admin"/"Schema Admin" account on our schema master DC.
    Our domain/forest functional level is Server 2008R2, and we do not have an Exchange server set up already - if that helps.

    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    I just tried .\setup /PrepareAD /OrganizationName:kurnaicollege /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms, and got the exact same error as above. 
    Is there a way to delete the offending schema attributes, or to force its overwrite or something?
    EDIT: I am also getting these eventvwr errors when running /PrepareAD, if it helps:
