Outlook 2010 - Delegate creates meetings on someone elses behalf

To start here's our environment:
Workstations are Windows 7 Pro using Outlook 2010 connecting to an Exchange 2010 Server.
Here's the problem:A delegate (Person A) of someone elses calendar creates a meeting for them in that person's calendar (Person B). Person A has delegate permissions (editor permissions) to Person B's calendar. After the meeting is created and sent out on
Person B's behalf, Person B receives an email about the meeting in what looks like plain text format. Person B normally doesn't get an email after a meeting is created but every couple of days this seems to happen. Person B then tends to contact Person A asking
why they received that email and then asks if the meeting has been scheduled when it has.
Any ideas why Person B receives these emails after Person A creates these meetings from Person B's calendar?
Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Hi,
Please check the delegate settings in Person B’s Outlook client:
Click File > Account Settings > Delegate Access. Click Person A and check whether “My delegates and me” is checked in the delegate settings:
It is recommended to select the first one. If the settings is correct, please check Person A’s Sent Items whether A also added Person B as an attendee in the meeting request.
Thanks,
Winnie Liang

Outlook 2010 Delegate Access Not enable

In outlook 2010, when i only have the single account, the delegate Access Function is fine.
When i add more thank one account, the delegate access is gray out.
are there have any solution?

Hi Daney,
I have tested on my lab (Exchange 2010 + Outlook 2010), result as below:
User: Mavis01, Mavis02, Mavis03.
Permission: Mavis01 has Full Access permission for Mavis02's mailbox.
Action:
1. Create a profile for Mavis01's mailbox, then add Full Access permission for Mavis02's mailbox.
2. Restart Outlook, I can see Mavis02's mailbox shows up under Mavis01.
3. Then I add Mavis03 account into this profile, restart Outlook.
4. Mavis01, Mavis02, Mavis03 are all listed in Outlook, and nothing gray.
"Delegate Access" gray out seems that it is a permission issue, however the delegate function works well if doesn't add account into one profile.
I suggest run Outlook under safe mode or re-create profile for testing.
Thanks

Can't sync iPad with Outlook 2010 since creating iCloud account

Ever since I created an iCloud account, my iPad will not sync my calendar with my Dell laptop running Windows 7 and Outlook 2010. It worked fine prior to adding the cloud. I have done a hard reset of the iPad with no luck either. I only use one Apple device (iPad). Do i even need a cloud account as I sync/backup my iPad to my laptop and Android phone daily? Help, I need to get my info back on the iPad.

I was able to fix it somehow by deleting the calendars on my iPad and iPhone and turning off iCloud calendar it finally let me select outlook calendar to sync by also selecting to replace calendar in advanced settings. But only by selecting both. It only took 6 months for Apple to allow me to do so because I have selected the outlook calendar before and wouldn't sync.
I have Windows 7 and MS Outlook 10

Outlook 2010 shows different user on sent on behalf of line

Hi,
I am having an issue where a user has send on behalf permission to a mailbox. This mailbox is also set to forward any mail to another mailbox.
When a user running outlook 2010 sends an email from this mailbox, it goes fine, but when you look at the from field of the sent email it shows as the mailbox it is set to forward to. So [email protected] is set to forward all incoming mail to [email protected],
and user A has permssion to send on behalf of [email protected]
When user A tries to do that, the recieved mail should show in the from field as user A on behalf of [email protected] but instead shows as [email protected] on behalf of [email protected]
I have users running outlook 2003 that have no issue with this. Is there anyway to change what outlook 2010 will display in the from field of the sent email, as we want the recipient to have a named point of contact, but all mail to go into the same mailbox
so if that user is away another can pick it up.
Sorry if it makes little sense...

Hi,
Please make sure
[email protected] doesn’t have any related permissions(Send as permission, send on behalf of rights, full access permission) to User A. We can remove
[email protected] from Forward To filed in EMC then check whether the send on behalf message shows correct in from filed:
1. Open Exchange Management Console, expand Recipient Configuration > Mailbox.
2. Right-click [email protected] > Properties.
3. In Mail Flow Settings tab, click Delivery Options > Properties.
4. Make sure User A is listed in Send on behalf permission list. And uncheck Forward to checkbox.
5. Click OK > Apply > OK.
Then check whether the issue persists. If the issue resolved, then set the forward to back to have a try.

Question about Outlook 2010 and Contact list

Good afternoon all, OK so I have been trying to research this problem but I don't know if it can be done. In Outlook 2010 we created a contact list that we use to fax and email referring physicians. In Outlook when you click on a contact in that list and add it to the "To" line it come up with the persons name of the contact I picked, but what if I wanted to fax that contact and needing just the fax number that in that contact card to only come up. Is there a setting that allows me to change what info I want to be seenin the"TO" line of the email?To give a bit more info: Our company just purchased the GFI FaxMaker software that allows us to fax from our PC.We purchased it because it integrated with MS Outlook. What wasn't told to us wasthat we had to add "@faxmaker.com"at the end of the fax number. So hence my problem with outlook....

Weird Inbox Outlook 2010/13 and Exchange

Really weird one this.
I've migrated 7 accounts across from IMAP to Exchange.
5 have migrated across really well.
2 are having problems with the Inbox in Outlook 2010 and 2013.
They both sync all folders to exchange except for the Inbox.
The Inbox show all the emails up to the date of the migration.
But nothing after that.
Using the web OWA does show these latest emails.
So the Outlook Inbox is not syncing with the latest Exchange Inbox.
Any ideas?
I've opened the account using different profiles and different machines with Outlook 2010 but still get the same problem.
Adding the account to an iphone does show the correct Inbox.
FURTHER RESEARCH:
In Outlook 2010 I created a new Folder called "Copy from Inbox"
When a new email arrives, there's a brief period where you see a new email has arrived notice.
I can click on this and I see the new email!
I then move it to the new folder I created above.
I can then see the new emails!
I just can't see them in the Inbox, even though the total count and the unread numbers go up every time a new email arrives.
And this only happens on 2 out of the 7 accounts.
YET MORE RESEARCH :)
In Outlook 2013:
I've labelled my missing emails "test" in the subject line, when I search the current Folder using "test" they are there.
However when I search using Current Mailbox, they disappear.
When I go back to Inbox they disappear.
I'd really appreciate any help, this is driving me insane :(

Unfortunately mailboxes imported to Exchange from IMAP accounts can be a pain as I've found myself! There's a few things that could be causing this.
1) If there's an IMAP filter still being applied to the mailbox, or specifically the inbox that can cause it to not display new mail items. In Outlook 2010 / 2013 I think (I'm looking at Outlook but don't have a mailbox with this issue to check) you
need to go into the View tab, select Change View, Manage Views, and you should see that Filter is set to something. Modify the view and remove the filter. Hopefully that will display the messages again.
2) If that doesn't resolve the issue (or if you see other issues with those mailboxes) check out
http://mellositmusings.com/2012/08/29/exchange-2010-mailboxes-inherit-imap-folder-views-and-attributes-if-imported-from-a-pst-dump-of-an-imap-account/ which goes into detail of how to resolve these issues. The issue I've seen (listed about half way down)
if that the folders retain the container class of IPF.IMAP rather than IPF.Note used by Exchange. You can correct that manually by using MFCMAPI* or if you have Exchange 2010+ you can use EXFolders do update all the folders as a batch.
*Note, if you use MFCMAPI be VERY careful. There's no error checking, you can change / break almost anything in the mailbox and changes are immediately applied, eg no making a change, going "oops", and clicking cancel rather than save.

HT5567 Iphones and Ipads with IOS 6.0.x and later getting Calendar invitation even so that Delegate access is enable on exchange 2010 and outlook 2010

I'm Running Exchange 2010 with outlook 2010 in my environment, since Apple OS went from 5.x to 6.x I been having issues where the Iphones and Ipads running OS version 6.x or higher do not acknowledge that the exchange user has a calendar delegate and are automatically accepting the invitations, not allowing the Delegate to acknowledge first, If this test is run on any Apple devices running OS Version 5.x but less than 6.x the issue is not there.. any one that may have encounter with this situation got a fix or a possible resolution on it.. Thanks

Ok, well after looking at everything, I decided that the best solution was to uninstall an App called "Tango", as it seemed to 'mess' with contacts directly, and I only use it with 1 person, so switching back to Skype (plus Tango sends/shares lots of personal
info, location, and keeps changing it's access rights and doing stuff when you're not looking - I'm sure some people love it, but for me, it's a belts and braces get rid of anything that might have 'contributed' to this issue).
Found my un-sync'd contacts and emailed them to myself, then deleted the Exchange active-sync account. Checked what was left, found google had managed to sync some stuff, cleared that up too!
RE-created the account on the S4 - only need the email and password, as it finds the server and sets itself up automatically (I guess it did that previously).
All is now working, after about 5mins the data had been re-populated and it sync's new changes instantly. But I will monitor from time to time to check that new contacts or added numbers etc do sync. My best guess is that some index or other data became corrupt.
Just one of those things (or had I been tango'd?!).
On the Truncating Notes Issue, the S4 (realised that it's running Android 4.3) does chop a note but only if edited, at 1001 chrs. However unlike others, it seems to only truncate the note if you actually edit the note field, so adding a phone number or removing
one, leaves the note field intact!
To summaries other devices behaviour with the Contact record Notes Field:
- iPhone 3GS (on iOS 6.1.3) truncates at 32,777 chrs (so pretty big notes!)
- Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (GT-N8020 - Android 4.1.1) chops at about 1,000chrs, even if just adding a phone number to the contact - so not even editing the notes field
- HTC One X (4.2.2) at 5,122 chrs (when editing any part of the contact)
I hope this might help someone in the future if they have similar problems ...
cheers

Delegate Question in Outlook 2010

Hello,
I have a question regarding delegation within Outlook 2010. Here is my example of what is going on.
User A is a delegate of User B.
User A sends meeting invite to User C on behalf of User B.
User C replies to message with email response instead of accepting meeting (User B name in "to" field automatically)
User B receives email reply instead of User A.
Basically we have a user in our organization that keeps receiving a response to a meeting invite who has a delegate that handles her meetings. If the user who received the meeting invite has a question such as "where is her office located" that
email doesn't go to the delegate, it goes to the person who it was sent on behalf of.
Is there any way around this or is this just the way it works? The user claims it has just started happening the past few months, but I ran a test here at my office with three users in the same situation as above and it worked exactly like listed in my first
scenario to where the meeting it was sent on behalf of received a reply from the invitee. However to add to the confusion, the delegate that takes care of her meetings also supports other people, and she says she does not get these replies from users like
she does for this particular user she supports.
I believe we are on Exchange 2007 and are in process of migrating to Exchange 2013.
Thanks in advance for the assistance,
TB

Hi,
From your description, you want the delegate to handle the meetings. In your case, I recommend you use the following steps to create a meeting:
Login user A's mailbox -> Open user B's calendar -> select the time -> schedule a meeting -> send the meeting request
Hope this can be helpful to you.
Best regards,

MS Outlook 2010 Add in Create pdf - does not capture pictures shows as question marks

In MS Outlook 2010 the add in of Adobe PDF.
When used to create a pdf it does not print any pictures or logos in the email in Outlook. Adobe converts it into blue question marks.
This problem developed over time as it was working fine before.............please suggest..........other than a re-installation..........someone who has had this problem and worked out a solution........(not for the points only!)- please an answer, a solution or state the problem if you have experienced something similar.

Glad it worked for you. The reason to turn it on is primarily because of Security concerns. Spammers at times include a referece to a unique image when then send you an email. The idea is that if you download that image, they know that the email address is valid.
At times, this such spam also might also include inappropriate content.
If you are careful in not converting spam email, you can leave it on.

Cannot create a Sharepoint meeting workspace in a Outlook 2010 meeting request

I am using Sharepoint 2010 and Outlook 2010. I am trying to create a meeting request and also create a sharepoint workspace attach to that meeting request in Outlook.
First I click Create button and then it would let me choose a location for the workspace server in a drop-down box. I chose "other...". After I input my sharepoint site URL in the Workspace Server, Outlook does not recognize the address and a windows
popup saying "The operation could not be completed because of a problem found on the server or the server could not be found."
I checked the thread below and it doesn't solve my problem at all.
There is no reason why this should not be working. I also created a meeting workspace in sharepoint, and can't even link it to an outlook meeting request when pasting the direct link from the browser.
Did Microsoft break this and forget (or not care) to tell anyone?

Hi,
I found a similar thread and someone posted a solution:
http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/154/t/735.aspx
I've quoted the solution and you can try if this fits your scenario:
The issue with Outlook not being able to find a Meeting Workspace is usually due to authentication not being passed correctly. Adding Trusted Sites information to Internet Explorer lets the browser know to allow the authentication to pass.
Open Internet Explorer
Go to: Internet Options -> Security -> Local Intranet -> Sites -> Advanced
Add: *.sharepoint.com , *.microsoftonline.com , *.lync.com , *.outlook.com
Click Save
Then go to Internet Options -> Security -> Trusted Sites -> Sites
Add: https://*.sharepoint.com ,
https://*.microsoftonline.com ,
https://*.lync.com ,
https://*.outlook.com
Click Save
Close Internet Explorer
Open Internet Explorer
Goto login.microsoftonline.com and sign in, make sure "keep me signed in" is checked.
Go back to outlook and the meeting workspace button will work now.
Note Since you are using Sharepoint 2010, in the example above it's SharePoint Online, the URL you need to add is your own SharePoint Site URL. Also login your own page as you should not be using login.microsoftonline.com.

Can I create a task in Outlook 2010 from a .pdf

Hello
New here.
Using Adobe Acrobat Standard X
Windows 7 Prof 32 bit
Outlook 2010
I can create an Outlook 2010 task from a word doc or excel spreadsheet, now I would also like to be able to create such a task from a .pdf
Example: I'm corresponding with a financial institute via email, creating .pdf from the emails and just saving in a folder on my PC. I would like to be able to take that .pdf and link it to my Outlook tasks so it actually becomes a To Do item to 'jog' my memory.
Is this even possible?
Thanks very much

Can't adjust the default time scale when creating a new appointment in Outlook 2010

Good Afternoon, I have found a question on these community boards that propose an issue that I am currently experiencing. The answer; however, was not the solution for me. I used the same name as the original post and will add the original text as it is
exactly what I am experiencing.
"When creating a new appointment in the month view Outlook 2010, the default time scale or duration is 2 days. I tried resetting the view, adjusting the time scale, and creating a new profile. It only seems to happen when creating the appointment
in the Month view. ??? Day and week view work fine and appointment can be created w the standard 30 minute time scale. But the time scale in the month view although says 30 mins, it creates appointments in 2 day durations."
This is exactly what happens to the user I am assisting. When in "month view" double clicking the day will bring up a new appointment with the times within the same day. If you click the "new appointment" button in the ribbon it
sets the end time to the following day. This only happens in the month view every other view works as it normally should. I have tried it several times being sure multiple days are not selected. It still gives me an end time for the following day. I have reset
the view, changed the time scale but nothing seems to bring it back to the default same day appointment. Any ideas?
Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

It is a default in Outlook 2010 in month view. The "time scale" selection is greyed out. Very frustrating. Everytime I select "New Appointment," a duration of 1 day is automatically selected; midnight to midnight. I end up doing
most appointments twice because I forget to change to end date back to the day of the appointment. "New meeting Request" works fine. So does "New All Day Event" when you deselect "All Day Event." I can't see how this default behavior
provides optimal results under any circumstances. Very frustrating.

Creating portfolio from Outlook 2010 folders

Hi there, I'm a first-time poster to this forum.
Back when I had Acrobat 9 Pro and Outlook 2007, I had no problem right-clicking a bunch of Outlook folders and having an indexed PDF portfolio created.
Now I have Windows 7/Outlook 2010, and I asked IT to upgrade my Acrobat Pro to X because I read that the 9 version was incompatible. However, it's not working. The options are there to create to PDFs, and I get the dialog box that states it is converting the messages, but it "skips" or "fails" nearly all the messages!!
Anyone know why this is happening? Many thanks to anyone who can shed light on this!

Might be worth running SCANOST on this one (possibly the first time in history that I've recommended that utility).
See if this helps: http://www.officeforlawyers.com/outlook/tsol.htm#scanpst (the instructions are basically the same for SCANOST)

I cannot open archieved pst file in outlook 2010, can someone help me

Сan some one help me to open my pst file which I had cut copied while moving on to new Laptop, now I cannot open this file in outlook 2010. I tried repairing the file using scanpst and other demo version from kernel and other software... most of them say
"not a valid pst file" Please help me as the date in this pst is important.

Your PST file might have got corrupt or damaged with 'Cut Copied' , that's why you are not able to access it on your new Laptop. Could you let me know how did you export your PST file from your old laptop/system?
A valid way to Export PST file is by using Import & Export option in Outlook (Open Outlook -> File Tab -> Click Options -> Click Advanced -> Import & Export) . Once you export the PST file on your old computer, copy that PST file into
any external storage drive(or by any other medium) and transfer it to your new laptop. Now open Outlook and Create a new profile ( Click the Show Profiles button -> Click
Add to create a new profile -> Enter a name for your profile -> Enter Name, Email id & Password -> Click 'Manually configure server settings' box to get into More Settings and
customize the Outgoing server settings.) Once you are done with this, Import that PST into Outlook using Import & Export wizard.

MS Outlook 2010 Add in Create pdf - does not create pdf of draft emails- Adobe Acrobat Pro X

In MS Outlook 2010 Add in Create pdf- does not create pdf of draft emails- this maybe the case, but just wanted to make sure this is normal for the program- though I guess one can print as an Adobe pdf but it does not maintain the hyperlinks of email addresses etc. the functionality is compromised in a print vs create a pdf.

Here's a workaround by the team:
Right click on the message from Explorer list view or folder view and chose the option to convert to PDF.
