Outlook 2007 from Virgin

I have moved house and was previously with Virgin and Outlook 2007 for my Emails. I cancelled my account with Virgin before I started up with BT Broadband. How do I now re-commence using Outlook and retain all my Contacts and previous Emails etc.
Many thanks 

Changing ISP will not result in Outlook loosing contacts, emails, etc.
You do need to set up an Outlook account to pick up your BT Internet emails. From the main Outlook window go to Tools>Account settings. On the E-mail Tab select New. Choose "Microsoft Exchange, POP3, IMAP, or HTTP" and click Next. Enter the details and click next.
I assume you will not be able to use your old Virgin email so you should remove this account from the automatic send/receive list.

  • Syncing calendars using Outlook 2007 from iCal Server

    Hi,
    I would like to know the procedure to sync calendars using Outlook 2007 from iCal Server.
    I'm setting up Internet Calendar on Outlook 2007 from == Tools> Account Settings> Internet Calendars>New> Enter the URL and click on add button
    Post that, I'm getting an error:
    "Error: Cannot verify or add the Internet Calendar in Outlook. Verify the link is a valid calendar link:
    webcal://fully qualified domain name:8443/calendars/_uids_/Generated UID/Calendar"
    Looking forward some response soon.
    Thanks!!

    Hi!
    That is never going to work if you are looking for 2-way sync with iCal server. You need a 3rd party application to do that, like ical4ol or the open source Outlook sync plugin available here: http://caldav.calconnect.org/implementations/clients.html.
    Or alternatively, use another mail client like eMClient for mail and calendaring.

  • How to stop Outlook 2007 from changing my telephone number format?

    I'm using Windows 7 and Outlook 2007 (and Exchange 2007 SP1).
    Now, in Outlook's contact, whenever I enter a telephone number, the stupid Outlook 2007 always tries to be smart and add brackets to the first few digits!  There's no brackets in tel number.  How could I make it stop from being too smart and changing anything?

    I've found another PC with XP and Outlook 2007, but I still can't find any service called "Windows Dialing".  But I tried it anyway.  Guess what I got: in this computer, a normal local telephone format isn't changed.  But when the number is in long distance format, ie +XX YYYYYYY, Outlook 2007 stupidly removes the '+' sign in front of it!
    I then tried in my first PC to see what would happen to international telephone number format.... it's OK, the '+' sign isn't deleted.
    What a f**k!  What's this ____ called Outlook 2007 which tries to reformat things it can't understand??
    I have exactly the same problem - I am in the UK and have a pile of UK numbers stored in international format (which most cell phones recognise and some generate automatically from incoming calls). So the number would be entered as +44 1234 56789. Outlook strips off the + and, because I sync with my pda, the numbers get exported to it in a broken state :-(
    In the UK, we don't drop leading digits - to dial a number I either dial 01234 56789 or +44 1234 56789. We don't really use local numbers a lot in the UK - it doesn't make any difference within a local area if I dial the full code, just the local number or the international version. So there is no need for Outlook to do anything.
    This is extremely aggravating - sure ly Outlook is not hard coded to use  US phone dialling methods?
    There must be a way to disable the automatic parsing of numbers - if not it is bug that needs fixing, IMHO...

  • Outlook 2007 conduits and Windows 7

    I'm attempting to sync my Palm V to Outlook 2007 before abandoning the old guy. I've had it for 10 years, it's served me perfectly well, but laptops just don't have serial ports any more and it's probably time to move on.
    I've downloaded the Outlook 2007 conduits and installed them (running the exe as Administrator, just in case). It says that the installation is successful, but I see no evidence of it, and the instructions don't really tell me what to look for. I assume that I'll see something different either in the HotSync conduit list or in the options when I choose Change, but I see neither. Synching just continues to sync the Palm Desktop. The machine has been rebooted.
    This is the 32-bit version of Windows 7 Ultimate, Palm Desktop 4.1.4, and Outlook 2007 from the Office Enterprise package. Any help anyone can give me would be very appreciated - losing this data would be like losing old diaries.

    Hi
    You can journal your mail and have a 3rd party vendor archive your mail like symantec etc.
    PST files bigger than 2GB will cause issues.
    You can set an exclusion on that folder so its not scanned.

    Hi,
    I am unable to scan (HP Officejet 6600) from my comuter to Outlook 2007.  I used to scan whatever I am scanning for the day from my HP Officejet 6600, and then I would see my scan finished then I would hit email scan. I would then recieve multiple errors.
    Here is the process; HP Scan (save) and then I get an error: The HP Scan application is unable to open your application and/or cannot attach the scan to a new email. Please check you email configuration and try again. I then select (Next) I select "OK," which then provides me with another error: This action is not supported while an older version of Outlook is running.
    Therefore, can somebody help me?
    Thank you,

    Hi Joe,
    First, try reinstalling the latest HP software.
    From Programs and Features uninstall the HP Officejet 6600 Basic Device Software, next dowload and install the latest software below, then check for any difference:

  • IPhone 4 & Outlook 2007 contact groups

    I'm totally stumped - please help!!!
    Hardware:
    iPhone 4 iOS 4.2.1 (I think that's right!)
    PC: Vista with Office 20074
    I sync my phone with the contacts and calendar in my outlook and both technically sync fine. The contacts were imported into Outlook 2007 from an excel file that was exported from Outlook 2003.
    My conundrum is that on my iphone the contacts are also shown in groups - but I cannot for the life of me find these groups in Outlook to update them or even remove them! In Outlook none of the contacts are labelled into the categories or into groups - I'm totally stumped!!
    Since having my iPhone I don't really use outlook anymore other than as a back up for my calendar and contact data so I am wondering whether to just import the data into my yahoo account and sync there but its driving me nuts that I cant work out where the group information is being tagged to the contacts.
    Can anyone help me?!
    Thanks in advance
    KML2076

    I have been working on a group email app recently (MailShot), and the way the iPhone handles some of this stuff is certainly fun.
    How do you sync your contacts with Outlook, do you use the Exchange wireless protocol? That also creates an "Exchange Global Address List" that can be the source of some strange effects along the lines of what you are seeing. Do you see it listed at the bottom of the Groups page of your Contacts app?
    Typically it is used to allow everyone in an office to access the same shared contact list. Unfortunately the GAL persists even if you turn Contacts sync off in the Exchange account panel of the Settings app, you have to disable the Exchange account to stop seeing it.
    Hope this gave you a few pointers

    My wife's invites for her work will not behave correctly to whoever her clients are.
    But I want iCloud to sync Calendars - and send invites properly not add all the iCloud functionality over the top

    Yes it is elsewhere, however I have a Vista 32-bit that doesn't work and a Windows/7 64bit that doesn't work.  I think it's just generally "bad code" and OBVIOUSLY the person that was supposed to test it didn't.  I can't uninstall on my Vista machine because it will break all my Contacts and Calendar sharing too.  Therefore, for now, I guess I will just have to give up on sharing pictures until they get it fixed.
    Which, BTW, has been an AWFULLY LONG TIME already.  I installed v2 over a week ago and Apple hasn't even acknowledged anywhere I've seen that they have an issue.
    'Bout time to start sending emails to the press:  Maybe they can goad Apple into doing something.
    There are several articles expounding about how great it is:  I will be replying to all I can find that it DOES NOT WORK AND APPLE DOES NOT CARE.  They sold several million new phones, all made in China, and now they are fat, dumb and happy.

  • Outlook 2007 Calendar color coding (categories) of appointments and meeting

    I synce my new iPhone 4 with Microsoft Outlook 2007 from work. I have all my appointment meetings color coded (categorized) in Outlook. The color coding is not showing up on my iPhone calendar. Why?

    Hi,
    I did a test on my side: The account in Outlook was an Outlook.com account, I created an appointment in its calendar, gave it a category. Then I logged on the calendar on
    https://bay04.calendar.live.com/calendar/calendar.aspx, the appointment was there and I could see the category, but there's no color on it.
    Based on what I see, it's probably by design that Outlook.com Calendars don't display category colors, although it already has a category. To confirm this, you can post the question in Outlook.com forum:
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook_com
    Since iPad is not a Microsoft product, I'm not sure and can't guarantee if it supports the calendar categories that Outlook supports.

  • Can you sync attachments from an iPhone to a Windows PC with Outlook 2007?

    Can you sync attachments from an iPhone to a Windows PC with Outlook 2007? I would like to receive email on the iphone with attachments and then sync the attachments to a Windows XP PC with Outlook 2007 without Outlook 2007 having to connect to the mail server itself and having to separely download the attachment. Is this possible?
    I have only tried one pdf file which downloaded wonderfully to the iPhone. I synced to the PC without the PC being connected to the email account. This also worked except that when I tried to open the attachment on the PC I got a message that the mail wasn't fully downloaded. When I went on=line on the PC, it downloaded the attachment. I would love to have this option because I can't access some email accounts from my corporate computer.

    No it is not. The only information synced regarding email accounts is the email account information only and this is in one direction only - from your computer to the iPhone via iTunes.

    Using Outlook 2007 I want to receive emails on my iPhone 4 only when Outlook is NOT open on my computer, as when away from home or want to quickly check email when computer is not turned on. Either ALL emails come to my iPhone or none at all. Is the setting I need to change in Outlook or on the iPhone or is it somewhere else?  I used to have this setting but transferring Outlook to a new laptop somehow turned it off.

    No. You really can't do that. Not easily at any rate. You would have to set them both up to use POP3, but even then there is no way to guarantee that the phone won't poll the server prior to your computer doing so, pulling down the message from the server.

  • Outlook 2007 won't open .pst file from Outlook 2000

    I have been using Outlook 2000 for 10 years and hit the 2GB limit. As a result, Outlook 2000 would not open mail and did not permit me to delete mail to clear space.
    I’d been meaning to install my Office 2007 and this seemed like the time to do so. Once installed, I attempted to open my 2 GB PST file in Outlook 2007. No luck.
    Messages: “The message interface has returned an unknown error. If the problem persists, restart Outlook.” And “Cannot display information. There is either a problem connecting to the server or an error has occurred.”
    Researching on the Web, I found Microsoft guidance that I could create a new data file and import the old (ANSI) .PST file into this new (Unicode) .PST file. When I did
    that, during the Import, I encountered another error message: “The file has reached its maximum size. (Followed by two unhelpful sentences – can’t be imported).”
    OK, I think, I have to reduce the size of that file. Research yields Microsoft’s “oversized PST and PST crop tool.”
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/296088 I do that and follow the instructions to scan the truncated file with Microsoft’s
    scanpst.exe tool, which is included with Office.
    Another error: scanpst.exe will not complete its scan. I receive a mysterious error message with no indication what the exact problem is. I created multiple versions
    of the truncated .PST file, each smaller than the last, so that the smallest was 1.7 GB. Still errors with scanpst.exe and ultimately no luck.
    I have spent more than 10 hours trying to solve this problem and am at wit’s end. I’m a freelance writer, and it’s costing me money. What’s worse,
    info on projects I’m supposed to be working on are locked in that PST file! All data is stored locally on a Dell laptop with Windows 7.
    Help anybody? Please? Thank you!

    Fifteen hours later, I was back in business, having upgraded from Outlook 2000 to Outlook 2007, a process one would expect to take a half-hour tops. I'm no IT pro, but
    I am pretty accomplished at fixing problems. This one seemed beyond my reach, as neither of the utilities Microsoft recommended to address the issue, the truncation tool and scanpst.exe, worked -- what a surprise! I engaged a local technician to diagnose the
    problem remotely, and over a course of four hours he fixed it using a third-party program called "Outlook Recovery Toolbox." I'd actually downloaded that tool and fooled around a bit, but didn't use it for a full scan as I think that required a purchase, and
    who knows if it's malware or what. Well, it worked.
    So 15 hours lost. That cost me hundreds of dollars as I am self-employed, plus I have a $150 bill from the technician, which is more than fair for his two hours of labor
    (the extra two hours were scanning and importing time). Again, Microsoft managed to turn into an epic ordeal what the consumer expects to be a straightforward upgrade process.
    Now I have Outlook 2007, oh boy! The first thing I notice is the inflexible mail header above the message body. WTF is that supposed to be? Who was the Einstein who thought
    that up? It renders USELESS like an inch of real estate right in the center of the screen! I find that it can be hidden (not, of course, with a simple, convenient and sensible right click ... oh NOOOO ... but through multi-click options available in the toolbar).
    (For background, Outlook 2000 did not have that inflexible mail header -- the header info (subject, date, sender, CC) was part of the email, so if you scrolled down the
    email, the header went with it and made the best possible use of available space).
    Now here's a twist -- Outlook does not show, in your list of emails, whether an email has an attachment if the email was sent via Lotus Notes. That was a glitch in 2000,
    and one I would expect to have been resolved in 2007. BUT NO. So, just moments ago, I have an email/meeting invitation sent from a client using Lotus Notes. Even though I had told Outlook to hide headers, it disobeyed me ... 
    why? Because this was a "meeting invite" email, offering me options, in that stupid inflexible header, to Accept, Decline, Propose New Time, & etc. Well, those options only increased the size of that inflexible header, so that the visible area of
    the email WAS LESS THAN ONE INCH HIGH. Yes, I can adjust it -- how very productive!
    These two Microsoft glitches / manifestations of poor design -- no alerting to attachments from Lotus clients and that horrid header -- very nearly conspired to cause
    me to miss a critical attachment displayed only at the very bottom of the email. The document attached needs to be read and commented before the meeting, and only by the grace of God did I happen to scroll, IN THAT 3/4 INCH MAIL WINDOW, to the bottom and happen
    to spot said critical attachment.
    Do I expect anything more from Microsoft ... other than more grief and stupidity? Sadly, I do not. It is my misfortune in life to have to use Microsoft Word on a daily
    basis, as I have for the past 10 years.
    Before that, I used WordPerfect and what a wonderful program it was! I recall using WordPerfect to write and design one lovely graphical document in particular that earned
    me an A+ in class. WordPerfect was so easy and powerful, with virtually no hassles—just gratification. Is it better to have loved (WordPerfect) and lost, than to have never loved at all?
    Unfortunately, since all my clients use Word, I have to as well. Frankly, and I hope this isn’t against board rules, I am merely speaking the truth as I see it—Microsoft
    Word is an utterly wretched application that has caused me untold grief and aggravation. Bulleting, text boxes, fickle fonts, the list is very, very long …. But it only gets worse!!!
    The whole .doc .vs 
    docx is a complete debacle; the “Compatibility Pack” is a cruel joke. If I use Word 2000 on .docx documents, here are some of the inconveniences and frustrations that I encounter:
    Bulleting function grayed out
    Spelling errors not highlighted
    Additional linespaces introduced into printed documents
    Mysterious transposition of bold, italics and underlining
    Inability to work with text boxes (“Error! Reference source not found!”)
    Track Changes not accurately recorded
    These are not incidental issues. I’m a spelling bee champion, but unless the spelling highlight function works, I am bound to have a typo or two in a 20-page document.
    This affects the quality of my work and my livelihood.
    To make matters worse, my Windows 7 often won’t find .docx documents. If I had worked on a .docx document something four months that I recall included the word
    “Rumplestiltskin,” the Windows 7 Find function should locate it, but it does not. 
    I could go on and on. How about the dismal wireless connectivity in Window 7, vs. XP, which was virtually flawless. But I’m trying to catch up on the 15 hours that I lost yesterday thanks to Microsoft’s
    awful Outlook troubleshooting and upgrade functionality.

  • I have an Ipad2, an Iphone 4 . I want to be able to sync both of these with my Windows desktop and Outlook 2007. I would like to sync to and from the Idevices and Outlook.

    I have an Ipad2, an Iphone 4 . I want to be able to sync both of these with my Windows desktop and Outlook 2007. I would like to sync to and from the Idevices and Outlook. When I attempt to sync in itunes I get a popup message asking if I want to delete, Merge or cancel. Not wanting to delete of cancel the only option left is Merge.
                When selecting Merge all of the entries in outlook are added to the idevice. The next time I merge all of the same entries plus any new ones are added, resulting in older entries being repeated i.e an entry like “John’s Birthday” will appear 5 or 6 times on the same date.
                How do I resolve this issue? How do I get the the sync process to add only new entries?

    This is a great question. First, facetime will not work because it has to establish a Call connection first. iMessage should work, but how to get it going I am not sure. Two great Apps to try are, Viber and Skype. Viber is excellent, it works over WiFi, you can make free calls and free text messages all over the world with other users who have Viber installed. It does not even have to be open on screen to work. Viber does have to recieve one text message with activation code, to activate it, this will be your only hurdle, but maybe Verizon can help you get that one text message. Skype does have to be open on screen however, but this can function like Facetime with WiFi connection. Definitely get Viber free in App Store, and put it on all your iDevices so the old Verizon iPhone can function as a telephone when on WiFi.
