Outlook 2010 cannot start because of patches

Ok this is twice now auto updates are playing havoc.  I hope it is not just here.  Last update I had people tell me outlook could not start.  After investigating I found if I removed KB2956128, outlook works again.  It installed this
update twice, I removed one and all went back to normal.  Yesterday. Same issue with KB2956203,  Anyone else having this issue?  Again, it appears to have been installed twice?????
TIA,

  • Outlook 2010 : Cannot start Microsoft Outlook. Cannot open the Outlook window.

    Hi
    Using Outlook 2010 with an Exchange 2003 back-end.
    Already have an Outlook profile (created in Outlook 2003).
    When launching Outlook 2010 I get:
      "Cannot start Microsoft Outlook. Cannot open the Outlook window"
    I've read several posts with this error message and a common "workaround" / "solution" was to run:  “Outlook.exe /resetnavpane”
    I tried that and it didnt resolve the issue.
    The only way I found to resolve this was to create a new Outlook profile.
    Launching with a new Outlook profile works fine.
    - Is this a "known issue" ?
    - Is there a way to diagnose / throubleshoot further without having to create a new profile?
    Thanks
    - AL

    Hi,
    Thank you for using Outlook IT Pro Discussions forum. 
    This problem can occur when file that maintains the Navigation Pane settings becomes corrupted. This file is called profilename.xml, where profilename is the name
    of your Outlook profile. Normally, we can resolve this issue by starting Outlook with the command
    Outlook.exe /resetnavpane
    or
    creating a new Outlook profile.
    Next time, you may also try to rename the profilename.xml from the folder first to see if the issue can be resolved:
    Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
    Windows Vista, Windows 7: C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Outlook
    For more information, you can refer to this KB article:
    Error starting Outlook: "Cannot start Microsoft Office Outlook. Cannot open the Outlook window."

  • Outlook 2010 cannot use Secure Password Authentication

    I am the administrator of the server running Microsoft Windows 2003 Server POP3 service since 2008. It hosts my email account. Nobody but me manages the settings of the server and the client side. Until the moment I decided to install Microsoft Outlook
    2010 as a client there was Secure Password Authentication working between Outlook 2003 and Windows 2003 Server. After installing of Outlook 2010, when I try to sync, the SPA authentication doesn't work. Nothing is changed on the server side.
    Enabling the SPA authentication on the both sides results a communicaton problem between Microsoft Windows 2003 Server POP3 service and Microsoft Outlook 2010 client. When I disable SPA on both sides the connection works but password is sent
    as plain text. Actually I started a discussion on
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-outlook/outlook-2010-cannot-use-secure-password/66dafd66-1b00-43b5-96fb-b8a26254fc77 but I didn't receive an answer with a solution.

    Snefels,
    This is actually a known issue that Outlook 2010 doesn't work well with Windows Server 2003 POP services.
    Here is the blog post for the issue:
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/jjameson/archive/2010/04/26/outlook-2010-does-not-work-with-windows-server-2003-pop3-service.aspx
    If you read the comments below, you'll found that some readers' shared some workaround/solutions, which reportedly works for others. So you might want to have a look.
    Disable SPA on the Windows 2003 POP3 server and do the same in Outlook 2010 POP setup.. using the full email address, "[email protected]" instead of just doug (if using the Secure Password Authentication).

    I have LR 4 and now I cannot open the software because I get this warning: "light room cannot start because it cannot create files in the temp file location. C:\windows\temp\". I think I need to have LR open in a different place but I have no idea how to do that. Any help is most appreciated.

    Jim
    Thank you for your prompt reply. Unfortunately I am not that tech oriented and
    cannot easily find that folder. I did notice when I was booting up the LR software
    that I could accept the site where LR usually is set up or choose a place. I am
    thinking that the standard location for LR software is corrupted and that if I
    chose a different place it would work. I say this because whether I use my
    original disc or download from adobe I get the same warning. I have 100GB of
    memory on the hard drive and I have cleaned the computer with Mcaffee and free
    software. What should I do next? I can't use this software and I doubt LR 5
    would open up with my current problem.

The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • Tecra M9 - TPSMain.exe cannot start because CpePerf.dll not found

    Hi and help,
    have searched the web and found other forum threads with similar issues.
    Tried all the suggestions to no avail. I am not great on the computer but can find my way around. Anyway....
    After login messge following messages pop up in succession, along the lines of : TPSMain.exe cannot start because CpePerf.dll not found then: TPSoddctl.exe cannot start because CpuPerf.dll not found
    Computer works fine but Power Saver does not auto start and neither can i select it to from control panel.."toshiba power saver is not running",
    so select it from Power options..."failed to start as CpuPerf.dll is not running"
    Did all the searching on net and followed all advice... i.e. unistall power saver in safe mode, unistall toshiba common utilities neither can unistall fatal error 0x7e
    So download Ccleaner, run checks, unistall with Ccleaner same fatal error.
    Been on Toshiba support and tried to install Power Saver......same problem won't install .
    So help help help if possible.
    Computer is working fine but messages popping up are annoying and i would love power saver to prolong battery.
    Tried system restore, though i doubt this affects the files...another problem "system restore could not complete"...tried this several times and cannot system restore either....what is going on???????
    any help please
    Tim

    Cheers for the advice Andrei,
    so you suggest there is nothing i can do other than restore from Toshiba recovery disc. Do you think somebody with a bit more knowledge could do sort it out with a less drastic approach..i.e is it worth taking it into a shop? Or do you think they will just have to go down the same route?
    If i follow your plan is it just a simple case of downloading all my docs, photos, bookmarks to an external hd and then inserting the recovery disc and following intructions.?? I guess this disc then formats the HD and then reinstalls all the components the laptop came with??? is it infact a drastic approach, or quite simple as a procedure...what do i stand to looose?
    Also how do i save xp as this is a version i installed when working/ using my laptop for my previous employer and i no longer have access to the discs/product key.
    also could you confirm if this procedure would sort out system restore. I have tried restoring again to several restore points and the procedure will not complete, so this function is definitely not working anymore.
    Sorry for more questions but as you can see this is not familair territory for me!!
    many many thanks

  • Outlook 2010 cannot save to archive folders listed. Message says that message was already moved or that user doesn't have permission.

    Outlook 2010 cannot save to archive folders listed. Message says that message was already moved or that user doesn't have permission.

    Hi,
    Does this issue occur when you manually archive items in Outlook, do you drag them into the archive folder?
    The first thing I wonder is if the .pst file has been corrupted, please run Scanpst.exe to repair the archive .pst file:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/272227/en-us
    Please logon your Webmail(owa), check if the emails are available. If the emails have been moved and Outlook Client hasn't synced yet, this issue may occur as well.
    We can also create a new .pst file to archive the file, check if the issue persists.
    For more information, we can refer to Archive items manually:
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/outlook-help/archive-items-manually-HA010355564.aspx
    When you browse to the archive file in step 5, type in a new .pst file name.
    If my understanding is not accurate, please detail your scenario and provide the exact error message.

  • Application cannot start because it cannot create needed files. Not enough disk space

    Hi,
        I have adobe director 11.5 and Macromedia MX 2004 versions installed in my machine. The projector created from the MX 2004 version used to work properly even after the 11.5 upgrade. I recently got the error  "Application cannot start because it cannot create needed files. Not enough disk space", whenever I run the projector. Has anyone come across this issue before?
    Thanks,
    Nandhini

    Where is the projector located?  Do you have read/write permissions in that folder?  This is a problem I have seen if I am running a projector on a network share where the projector will not be allowed to save files (temp files etc) in that folder.  Even if you don;t think it needs to save these files, it will come up with this error.  Try copying the file to your local machine and see if it works better.  If you are already running it on your local machine, and in a "safe" location within your user folder, then this is not the answer you are looking for and something else is going wrong.

    Hi Clifford,
    Take a look at the article below, it provides tips that should help you resolve the iCloud setup issue.
    iCloud: iCloud Control Panel setup cannot be started
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5178
    Symptoms
    After installing or upgrading to iCloud Control Panel 3.0, iCloud setup cannot complete.
    Resolution
    You may see one of several messages. Your troubleshooting steps will differ depending upon the message:
    “Your setup couldn't start because your username or password is incorrect. Go to the iCloud Control Panel, sign out, and sign back in.”
    Click Cancel to close the message.
    Click "Sign out" on the iCloud Control Panel.
    Reenter your Apple ID and password, then click Sign in.
    “Your setup couldn't be started because the iCloud server stopped responding.”
    or “Your setup couldn't be started because the iCloud server couldn't be reached.”
    Check the System Status page to make sure there aren't any issues affecting the settings you've chosen in iCloud Control Panel. If you are setting up iCloud for use with Outlook, check that there aren't any issues with Mail, Contacts, Calendars, or Reminders.
    Make sure your computer is online. In a browser, attempt to view www.apple.com and iCloud.com. If you can't connect to the Internet, your iCloud contacts, calendars and tasks cannot be added to Outlook. If you're using Windows 8, review the instructions for resolving network problems. If you're using Windows 7, review the instructions for troubleshooting internet connection issues.
    “Your setup couldn't be started because of an unexpected error.”
    Apple is investigating this issue. This article will be updated as more information becomes available.

  • Outlook 2010: "Cannot open your default e-mail folders..."

    When I open Outlook 2010 I receive the message: "Cannot open your default email folders.  There is not enough memory to perform the operation.", after which the program closes.  This is on a network running SBS 2003, with about 25 users, and I
    am the only with this problem.  System resources on the exchange server are fine, so I can only imagine a disk usage quota has been exceeded somewhere.  Storage limits for my account looked fine.  I've tried restarting exchange services, restarting
    the server itself, restarting my desktop, etc etc, to no avail.
    This specific problem just started yesterday, but I've been having memory issues for months now.  Usually, the Send and Receive dialogue will tell me that there are not enough resources on the server, but mail comes and goes just fine.  It's never
    simply refused to let me open outlook before, like it is now. 
    I also tried logging in through another computer and using Outlook 2003, which actually let me open the program, but did not sync mail properly.
    Also, we use cached exchange mode, so I tried creating a new ost file, but no dice. 
    Anyone know what the deal might be? 

    Hi,
    I agree with Don’s guess of damaged PST file or MAPI profile. Analyzed your description(sync mail improperly on another computer and using cache mode), this problem might occur when your Outlook messaging profile includes a Microsoft Exchange account
    that is configured to Use Cached Exchange Mode, and you have lots of cached public folders. Usually, this problem occurs when you exceed approximately 1,000 public folders, or a gigabyte of space is taken.
    To prevent this problem, keep the number of cached public folders to fewer than 1,000. Or, reduce the number of folders until the error or errors stop occurring. If you are experiencing this problem, delete some public folder favorites by using the Outlook
    client. In some cases, if you have too many favorites, you may be unable to delete the folders because the error occurs when you click the public folder favorites folder.
    To delete the public folder favorites, follow these steps:
    1.Download MFCMAPI from http://mfcmapi.codeplex.com.
     2.Run MFCMAPI.exe.
     3.On the Session menu, click Logon and Display Store Table.
     4.If you are prompted for a profile, select your profile name, and then click OK.
     5.In the top pane, locate the line that corresponds to your mailbox, and double-click it.
     6.In the navigation pane (left-side pane), expand Root - Mailbox, and select the Shortcuts folder.
     7.In the results pane (right-side pane), locate the PR_FOLDER_CHILD_COUNT properties. The value contains the number of public folder favorites.
     8.In the navigation pane, right-click the Shortcuts folder, and then select Empty Items and Subfolders from Folder.
     9.Keep the default options, and then click OK.
    Good Luck.

  • Outlook 2010 cannot send/receive mail AND states mailbox is being optimized due to upgrade AND outlook hotmail connector needs updating.

    As of 2014-March, the same thing happening on my system. This seems to have occurred, after the latest batch of 28 patches (including SP2 - KB2687455) from Microsoft Updates applied on 13-Mar-2014 and 19-Mar-2014.  I have been running Outlook 2010
    since it was first available.
    An unhelpful error is thrown, after trying to manually perform a Send/Receive:
    Not Implemented
    While in Outlook 2010, clicking FILE > INFO reveals the following warnings in red:
    "Upgrade in Progress. Your mailbox is currently being optimized as part of upgrade to Outlook 2010. This one time process may take over 15 minutes and performance may be affected while the optimization is in progress."
    There's an "Upgrade Now" button but it fails to produce any visible result. Next to the button, another warning in red:
    "You must upgrade to the latest version of Outlook Hotmail Connector to continue using this e-mail account."
    Again, I do not have the Outlook Hotmail Connector installed. Nor have I recently upgraded to Outlook 2010.
    I am unable to access ANY account settings, as well as poll my various mailboxes.
    While reviewing the list of installed updates (Control Panel > Programs and Features > View Installed Updates), there are 28 approximate patches -
    specifically, Service Pack 2 (KB2687455) - that were recently applied to Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010.
    Microsoft, what the #$%# is going on?
    I've read some related posts that suggest the core issue is other than what Outlook is reporting.  The posts recommend the following.  However, in my case, the below steps did not correct the
    issue.  In fact, the new profile would not allow me to view/manage the associated accounts or data files.
    (1) Remove your current Outlook Profile. No worries - this doesn't affect your mail data (.PST files):
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-au/outlook-help/remove-a-profile-HP010356455.aspx
    (2) Create a new Outlook Profile:
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-au/outlook-help/introduction-to-profiles-HA010355553.aspx
    Note: Outlook complained "An unknown error occurred, error code: 0x80040154."  However, exiting the Mail config window and relaunching shows that the new profile is intact.
    (3) If you previously had the Outlook Hotmail Connector installed, reinstall it.  If not, then just ignore and the warning should go away after creating a new Profile.
    32-bit connector: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=24677

    I was able to resolve this issue as follows.  However, why it occurred is unknown at this time and
    unrelated to a corrupted Outlook Profile, as mentioned on my prior post.  It seems highly probable that it was caused by the recent batch of Microsoft Updates for this product which included Service Pack (SP) 2.
    1) Performed a "repair" of Outlook 2010, via the Control Panel > Programs and Features.
    2) Rebooted.
    3) Prior to launching Outlook, returned to Control Panel > Mail and configured the location of my PST file (not in default directory).
    4) Had to reestablish as off my mail accounts, settings/preferences/etc. This step was the most tedious and frustrating.
