Outlook 2010 requires entry of a FROM address with every email!

Friends:
I have a user on Outlook 2010 SP2. He has begun getting asked for a FROM address whenever he replies to a message or forwards a message:
This does NOT happen when creating a NEW message.
Note that the From field is visible on the draft email and it DOES contain the sender's email address.
I have checked the registry and removed the Forceaccountselection key, but that has not fixed it.
This is a pretty disruptive problem!
By the way, I think that the problem might have arisen when another tech had him do something in his registry, but I don't really know....
Thanks!

Hi,
Does this issue happen to all emails or a certain email?
Does this issue continue in webmail?
Please also check if this issue persists if we create a new mail profile in Control Panel. See:

Please let me know the result.

SharePoint 2013 Workflow - Change the From Address for an email

Hello
I am creating a SharePoint 2013 Workflow Manager Workflow to send out an email when a document is uploaded to a document library. I want to set the From address for the Email activity added to my Workflow. There is no option in Properties to change this.
This used to be done when creating a SharePoint 2010 workflow in Visual Studio 2012.
How can I add a From email address for my workflow?
Thanks

Having problems getting SPD 2013 installed on my laptop because of a trial of O365, but I know in SPD 2010 you could find the BCC fields, etc... in the Advanced properties, it wasn't directly available via the common interface. I know 2013 is very
different from 2010, and if I can get it to install correctly, I will update, but look for an advanced property, or an XML view where you can find the FROM: field.

Outlook 2013 - BCC field won't auto populate with frequent email recipient.

Outlook 2013 - BCC field won't auto populate with frequent email recipient. In the TO or CC, if they enter the first initial of a recipient, it auto-suggests recipients. This does not happen in the BCC field. Is there an option to turn that on?

Hi,
Does this issue happen to a certain client or many of them?
There is no separate option to enable/disable auto-complete for Bcc field.
Since auto-complete works in the To and Cc fields, it means the auto-complete is not corrupt. We may try turn off the Auto-Complete and turn on it again to see the result. To do this, go to
File > Options > Mail, scroll down to the
Send messages section, clear the check box before "Use Auto-Complete List to suggest names when typing in the To, Cc, Bcc lines". Click
OK. Check the box again, click OK and see the result.
We may also test it in Outlook safe mode. To do this, press Windows key + R to open the Run command, type
outlook.exe /safe and press Enter.
Please let me know the result.

What do mean by reloading? Once you sync the photos to the iPad they should not sync again. Is that what you are seeing? The progress bar is showing that the photos are being transferred all over again?

Hi,
One of the user in exchange 2010 - outlook 2010 environment, in sent items email from address shows as invalid address after sent emails to recipients. Recipients are successfully received the emails. however, why the invalid address appearing in sent items
from address for the one of outgoing email?

Hi,
As what ManU Philip says, please check the issue in OWA firstly and try setting changes in Outlook.
Additionally, I noticed that there is an On Behalf Of in your post. If the issue is also the same on OWA, We can use the following command to check whether the user have Send on Behalf
permission on “/O=FIRST ORGANIZATION/OU…”:
Send On Behalf:
Get-Mailbox -Resultsize Unlimited | ?{$_.GrantSendOnBehalfTo} | select Name,GrantSendOnBehalfTo
Please try to remove these rights and restart Outlook to check the issue existing.
If all of the above fails, Please collect the error logs in Event Viewer and post here. I would like to help you any time.
Hope it helps.
Thanks,

Import Outlook 2010 contact into Mac OS X Address Book

*Help needed!*
In our company, we run PCs with Windows XP and MS Office 2010. For private usage I have a MacBook with Snow Leopard.
Since quite I while, I am trying to export the contacts from my Outlook 2010 address book into the preferred Address Book on my Mac. However, It does not work anymore.
I had found a simple way which worked well as long as my company was using the old MS Office. I simply sent the contacts from Outlook to Mac as attached files via email and could easily drag and drop them onto the desktop and further into the Address Book. Now coming from Office 2010, the addresses cannot be imported anymore.
The Finder on my Mac recognizes the files on the desktop but I can neither import nor drag-and-drop them into my Address Book.
Happy for any hint you give me!

Figured out what was happening here. It seems that even though a new contact is synced immediately (from MobileMe to the iPhone), categorization data is NOT -- it seems to take hours until this data gets updated.

Exchange 2013 with Outlook 2010 anywhere - Public Folders disappear from Outlook favourites

Hi,
we have a 3 server Exchange 2013 SP1 DAG published with Forefront TMG.
Outlook 2010 anywhere connection works fine (only anywhere connection is possible, there are no clients in the exchange server AD).
The users are adding public folders to their local Outlook favorites. In about 10% of the Outlook starts, those public folders are missing in the favorites. Local favorites folders are still there, public folders are connected.
After restarting the Outlook a few times, the favorites are back.
Deleting the outlook.xml brought no success, the favorites seem to be saved somewhere on the exchange server.
Outlook 2010 is up to date, all hotfixes are installed.
There are no related entries in servers or clients eventlogs, the logs of the TMG server are normal.
Does anyone have a simular behavior?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
According to your description,it is clear that something got corrupted, but it is hard to say directly what caused it. However, there are a few troubleshooting steps to determine what caused it and you can also make a backup of your Favorite Folders list
so you can easily restore it when it still happens.
Pleaser refer to the following article:

I can not longer send email from my .me email. in outlook 2010 on my PC. I can still recieve emails fine. I have not changed my settings at all. I have however tried all the settings i can find on the support pages. PLEASE HELP

I can still receive icloud ( ME email address) emails fine. I have not changed my settings at all. I have however tried all the settings I can find on the support pages. PLEASE HELP. Nothing has changed. This suddenly just started happening around a month ago. To frustrate me apple does not seem to have a support email or any method to contact them with this issue to do with their email product. I have spent ages going through the apple support sites and I keep getting asked for an apple product to mark it against. I have no apple product as I am using a PC but I am accessing and using their email product. Is there even a phone number I can call? Surely there is a support area for their Email server issues. Can anyone help? It is driving me mad and causing me major issues. My outlook is Outlook 2010 on a windows 8 PC. As I have said it worked fine then one day decided to stop sending emails.
Thanks for your help.

Outlook 2010 freezes when pasting text from email into filename

I use Microsoft Outlook 2010 (32-bit version), in a 64-bit computer (Dell laptop) using Windows 7 Enterprise, SP1. (I work in a company and can't change what version of the Outlook program I am using.) If I copy text out of an Outlook email,
and then go to save the email by printing it to a PDF file using Adobe Acrobat X Professional, and I try to paste the copied text into the file name I am typing for the email being saved/"printed", then Outlook freezes on me. I've
noted that I can copy text from other programs (such as WordPerfect X3 or Adobe PDF files), and successfully paste them into the file name without Outlook freezing. I can also copy text from an Outlook email, paste it as plain text into a WordPerfect
X3 document, and then copy that same text again out of the WordPerfect X document, and I am able to successfully paste the text into the file name of the email I want to save without Outlook freezing (i.e., moving the text out of Outlook and then back
again to Outlook somehow sanitized the text so it wouldn't freeze Outlook). Note that my office switched from Windows XP to Windows 7 a few weeks ago, and I also received a clean installation of Office at that time. This problem did not exist prior
to the change to Windows 7. Does anyone know what is causing the problem? Is there some setting I need to change in Outlook? (Maybe I had the Outlook setting correct in the old installation of Outlook, but the new Outlook installation wiped
out my prior settings, and the new default setting recently installed is creating the problem?)

Hi,
First please make sure your Office is up-to-date.
I suspect this may be related to some 3rd-party add-ins or the security software, first please run Outlook in Safe Mode to determine if 3rd-party add-ins are related:
Press Win + R and type “outlook.exe /safe” in the blank box, then press Enter.
If there’s no problem copying and pasting in Safe Mode, disable the suspicious add-ins to verify which add-ins caused this issue.
Please also disable the anti-virus program temporarily to check if this makes a difference.

Outlook 2010 won't go back from Working Offline to Online

I am using Windows 7 Outlook 2010. Suddenly today, an icon Working Offline appeared on the Notification Bar. I was not working offline. My email could not receive or send. I rebooted more than a couple of times. I disconnected totally from the wall outlet. It did not succeed. I was and still am able to go online for everything else, just not Outlook. I googled the problem and saw repeatedly that I should go to Send/Receive then Preferences and uncheck Offline. I can't find Preferences anywhere and can't find info about where to find it.
(I am able to check my mail with Verizon Webmail but, of course, that is absolutely not what I want to have to do.)
After one of the times I rebooted, I could no longer access the Outlook Inbox. Then it suddenly appeared again. Right now, it is gone again.
What can I do to correct this????? Would a System Restore help? I hate to do that but I will if I must.
Thanks!!!!!

I would just verify your Server settings for the Verizon e-mail account in Outlook. See this article, since Verizon may have changed some things around that caused it to go offline for you. Likely, Outlook cannot connect to the server which you can most likely find out by doing a Send and Receive.

Outlook 2010 e-mail signature missing from reply

Hi!
I have create a signature, and it works fine when creating new emails. But when replying/forwarding, there is no signature attached. And this despite I have attached the signature under options->mail->signatures->Replies/forwards.
I have tried setting it to none, saving, adding it again and also with another very simple plain two word signature, with no result....
I am running Office Professionel Plus 2010 on Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit
I really hope that you have some suggestions, because this is really annoying!

I had the same problem after upgrading to Outlook 2010, and this was the only place I got a search hit on (with Bing search of course) showing others with the same problem. I think I just found the solution (fixed it for me) so I
thought I would share. There seem to be multiple exchange accounts now (I don't remember if they were there before) in the Signature editing dialog, and each one of them has sig settings. In the "Choose Default Signature: section, for the "Email
Account:" drop down, select "Microsoft Exchange" and pick your sigs, select "Exchange" and select your sigs, and I guess select any others too :).
I am assuming the problem is intermittent depending on who is autopopulated in the "from" section for the email that you are forwarding or replying to, "Exchange" or "Microsoft Exchange", although i don't know the logic of why one would be chosen over
the other.

if i use outlook online (remove use cached mode) its receive new mails.
Any help?
Thanks

Hi,
What’s the user impact? If the issue only occur on specific users, I suggest we firstly take the troubleshooting from the client side.
If the issue occurs to all the users, it’s seems the Outlook sync issue with the CAS server, not like a database issue. Do you configure the NLB for the CAS server?
Thanks,

How do I share a contact from Address Book via email?

I am trying to send email address details in a Mailing list from my Address Book to a colleague. I have tried going to Attachment option but doesn't include option to attach from Address Book. Also tried copying so that I can paste into the body of the email without success. How can I share these contact details please?
Thanks

What does your correspondent need or want?
One well established standard for exchanging contact information is the vCard which encapsulates many of the commonly used fields in a Contact entry.
If a vCard suits you and your correspondent, this add-on:
https://nic-nac-project.org/~kaosmos/morecols-en.html
has a nifty feature for sending vCards as attachments. Then your correspondent can probably just add it to his address book. If you copy out single details, like name, address, email address phone no, then the other person has to insert each one into his address book by hand.
If you open the Mailing List in your Address Book, you can probably drag each item out into the body of a new email message. But that's more work than necessary for you and for the recipient, who will need to add each one manually to his address book.
With this add-on, you should be able to open the Mailing List by selecting it in the Address Book, then use ctrl+a to select all, then right-click and select "Send as vCard"; it will open a new message with all the selected Contacts attached.
Lists in general don't have a standard presentation, so a List in one email client is only rarely useful in another. If you both use Thunderbird, you could use this add-on to export the List to a .tha or .thm file which another Thunderbird user could import.

Is there an email account that will allow me to use a different from address with a POP account

Need to be able to delete emails (I have an Optonline address) from iphone and ipad during the day, while retaining them on Mac Book Pro to view and file into folders in the evening.
Seemed like I could have my optonline emails forwarded to a Gmail account and just set up the Mac's mail to use my optonline account, while the iPad and iPhone used my Gmail account. That worked, except for one issue - when I sent mail from the iPad or iPhone it would use my Gmail address and then people who used "reply" would have their replies sent back to my Gmail account. I wanted to continue to use my optonline address since I have had this address for many, many years. I saw that Gmail allows you to "send using a different from address", however because optonline is a POP account, they do not support the settings in Gmail and therefore I cannot get my optonline address to be verified by Gmail, meaning my emails continued to be sent from my Gmail address on my iPhone.
I even tried setting up the Gmail account manually (using "Other" in the ipone settings) and putting in a comma with my optonline address in the address field, but still no success.
Next, thought I'd try Yahoo mail - same thing - only sends mail with my Yahoo account.
Then looked into iCloud since I use that for syncing Contacts and Calendars on all 3 devices - same thing - I can only send email using the @me.com address.
Does anyone know of any other mail account that will work with my POP Optonline email address? After 10+ years with this email address, having to announce to my world that I am changing my address (either to Gmail, Yahoo, or the iCloud's @me.com address) is something I really don't want to do.
However, leaving just my optonline account on all 3 devices means I am constantly deleting the same emails on 3 devices everyday, which is also just not an effective use of my time.
Please help!

Here's one possibility:
http://www.ideaflight.com
The only way to keep students in the presentation, though, would be to lock the iPads to that app via the Guided Access mode:

Whether you can do this remotely through one of the various mobile device management (MDM) soutions I don't know.
