Outlook 2010 Spell Checker AutoCorrect Issue
I have a senior executive who is running Office Professional 2010 Plus (32-bit) on Windows 7 Enterprise. His Outlook spell checker has been working fine up to very recently (not sure of the exact date of his issue).
AutoCorrect is turned on in Outlook.
When he types an E-mail, if a word is typed incorrectly, Outlook will not flag it with the red curly lines until he presses the Enter button one time. From that point forward, incorrect words will be marked once he presses the spacebar. No correction
occurs until the Enter button is pressed one time.
I ran a repair on Office on his machine and disabled then re-enabled "Check Spelling as you type."
Can anyone advise what is wrong .. that the user must press the Enter key one time to start the spell checker. It is not doing it on either of my 2 machines.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Compare the AutoCorrect setting from the File > Options > Mail > Spelling and AutoCorrect > AutoCorrect Options, is there any difference between yours and the following one?

outlook 2013 spell check just does't work
Hello,
Please first make sure that you are not typing in the signature field, the spell check won't conduct when you are typing in the signature field.
If you are in the normal email body field, please click File > Options > Mail > Editor Options button > AutoCorrect Options button, make sure that the settings are set properly.
Also make sure you have checked the box labelled "Check spelling as you type" under File > Options > Mail > Editor Options button > Section "When correcting spelling in Outlook".
If above doesn't applies, exit Outlook, then try to find the NormalEmail.dotm template and rename it to
NormalEmail.old. Restart Outlook to check the result. By default, the
NormalEmail.dotm file is in:
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates
Please let me know the result.

Enable OWA 2010 Spell Check On As Default?
The default setting for the Outlook Web App for Exchange 2010 is off and if users want spell check in OWA, they have to go into Options and find the check box to enable it.
We would like to set the OWA spell check default to be enabled, so that the users only have to go into the options if they want to turn it off.
How can we set the default setting to be spell check enabled for OWA 2010?We need to get Windows 8.1 Pro licenses for every computer (to join them to the domain), but we would not need to purchase a separate volume license for every computer.
My understanding is that we only need a single 8.1 Pro volume license to obtain the Volume license media and activation key and then we can apply that to all the computers in our organization that are already otherwise licensed to have the version of the
OS.
We only need Volume licensing for the purpose of reimaging so we won't have to deal with manually entering a different retail key on every system and manually activating each one.
It appears we could use the $100 Pro Pack to upgrade each system from Bing to Pro, but the Pro Pack upgrade would then be tied to the OEM license which is tied to the hardware, so you lose the licenses if the computers are replaced. However, I think
if we buy the full $199 Windows 8.1 retail media for each system, we could reuse the license in the future if we replace these systems due to damage or loss -
Acrobat X/Outlook 2010 Home Page/Webfolders Issue
All - I will apologize upfront if this does not belong in this forum, or it is felt that this is not an Acrobat issue.
We utilize a little used feature called Home Page/Webfolders in Outlook. Basically what we all grown accustomed to is creating a folder in Outlook and then change the folder properties>Home Page to point to PDF files that reside on our intranet site. Then when you want to view a PDF you click on the Outlook folder and bingo its displayed right within outlook. (This works great for those that live in Outlook and want quick access to common PDFs on the intranet (Org charts, phone lists, etc))
So after a recent round of computer upgrades (windows 7, Outlook 2010 and Acrobat x) all of a sudden the Homepage/web folder funtion has stopped working. Specifically the PDF files are not displaying in the outlook folder. You just get a blank page where the page would have rendered.
We have done some testing and Acrobat 9 with Outlook 2010 works just fine! which is why I am here.
Thoughts?
I can tell you that from what we can tell Acrobat X is installed and working properly. Even the PDF preview option has been selected by default in Outlook. I should also point out that we have had many computers previously running windows 7, and Outlook 2010 and did not have any troubles. The recent change appears to be related to Acrobat X.
Thank you in advance.LoriUAC - thanks for the reply! yes we have everything full patched and up to date. While we have done a repair on some of the machines, the issue (which I may not have mentioned) is that this is widespread. It appears that everyone running Outlook 2010 with AcrobatX has the same issue.
With that said, is anyone also having the issue or is this isolated to just us?
Thanks again! -
Outlook Express spell check language?
After not using OutlookEexp. for a while, I now find that the language in spell check if French? How do I change to English ? TY
Satellite P35-S6053
..has office 2007
Somehow someone??? changed the spell check langauge to french ?
Nobody did it. Office 2007 is the culprit.
Outlook Express has no spell checker of its own. Rather, it uses whatever it can find. When Office 2007 was installed, most of the spell checking files were replaced with versions incompatible with Outlook Express.
You no longer have spell checking capabilities in some languages in Outlook Express 6.0 after you in...
Turns out that French still works.
Downloading a free spell checker is the simplest way around this.
Vampirefo is a popular solution.

From SnapFiles
Or you may like tinySpell, which checks the spelling as you type.
If you have a previous version of Office handy, see Office 2007 and OE Spell Check.

Hi
Is there a way to get spell checking working with Lync 2010 without having to set up third party software? I have Office 2010 installed and I did read somewhere that if you download and install Office 2013 proofing tools it should work, but it hasn't.
Any help would be great
Thanks
EverJayCheck out Matt Landis' write up here. If you don't want 3rd party, basically the only other option is to run Windows 8

Outlook 2013 on 1012 RDS and Outlook 2010 FAT client font issue
Our terminal server was changed from a 2008 RDP box with Office 2003 to a 2012 RDS box with office 2013 on it. Now if a user changes a font - or any view setting - on the 2013 copy on the terminal box, their desktop in the office which runs Outlook 2010
has the 2013 settings. Why and how - if possible - do I make that stop?
Thanks!Hi Creant,
Not quite sure if there is any way to change this behavior, but I'm sure that the product team already got this feedback from other users. See this thread:

Strange drag and drop email issue with Outlook 2010
Has anyone experienced this? It only started happening recently. It may have something to do with an installation of the most recent Office 2010 service pack. Here's the scenario: Using Outlook 2010 professional Try dragging an email from the email list
on the right into the list of folders on the left in order to file it When the drag crosses the email list to the folder list, the email drops into some random folder The drag operation picks up a random folder and now has a random folder attached to the drag
In other words, the email disappears somewhere and is replaced by a folder in the drag operation. It's not a mouse button issue as this doesn't happen anywhere else on the system while dragging, only in Outlook. Any thoughts?
my PC Techs http://www.mypctechs.comHi
Thank you for using
Microsoft Office for IT Professionals Forums.
From your description, we can follow these Method to troubleshoot.
Method A
Start outlook in Safe Mode, Press and hold the
CTRL key, and then click Outlook program
If the problem does not occur in the safe mode, this issue might be related to some third-party add-ins in the Outlook program, we can try to disable
them.
Method B
We can try to create a new profile in Microsoft Office Outlook 2010 to test the issue, follow these steps:
1.
Exit Outlook.
2.
Go to Start > Control Panel, click or double-click Mail.
3.
Click Show Profiles. Choose Prompt for a profile to be used.
4.
Click Add.
5.
Type a name for the profile, and then click OK.
6.
Highlight the profile, and choose Properties. Then Email Accounts..., add your email account in the profile.
7.
Start Outlook, and choose this new profile.
If this problem does not occur in the new Outlook profile, the old Outlook profile is corrupted. We can delete that and use a new Outlook profile.

Free Busy takes over 30 seconds to retrieve on Outlook 2010 using Exchange Server 2010
We have a small 100 user domain running Exchange server 2010 and outlook 2010 clients. The issue is that Retrieving Free/Busy takes over 30 seconds.
So someone is trying to schedule a meeting has to wait Minutes see the Free/busy time for many users.. I have checked and all the users in question have published at least one month free busy time.
It seems it would be much faster. Anyone have this same experience and know of a way to speed it up?
thanks in Advance
DavidHi David,
Does the issue happen in OWA? In Exchange 2010, the free/busy information is retreved by using Availability service (EWS url). Generally, if a user wants to view free/busy information when create a meeting, the http Availability service request
would send to CAS server.
Please check whether the usage in Exchange server is high when the slow free/busy information occurs. This reflect time would also be related to the network in your environment.

Outlook 2010 Scheduling Assistent - No free busy information can be received.
Folks:
I have recently upgraded to Outlook 2010 running on Windows 7 x64. My email is exchange based. My machine is not a member of the domain my exchange server is in.
I access it my a stored credential.
Everything is fine except for Scheduling assistant. All the folks invited to a meeting (except for myself) show up as "No Information Available".
I have found plenty of posts that suggest this is also a Outlook 2007 issue, and that creating a key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\Options\Calendar\UseLegacyFB
(value 1) solves the issue. (Example:http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvrgeneral/thread/c765605d-27a7-4784-993c-925394e2e09f) I did create the key on my Outlook 2010 machine - but in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Options\Calendar
key. It is not resolving my issue.
Does anyone know the Outlook 2010 solution to this issue? Note: I have Administrative privilege on my Client - but no privilege on the server. I need to get
Outlook 2010 to interface with Exchange 2007.
JohnHi John,
Thank you for using Outlook IT Pro Discussions forum.
From your description, I understand that you are using Outlook 2010 and Exchange account.
There is no free busy information when using scheduling assistant. If there is any misunderstanding, please feel free to let me know.
First, you must be using an Exchange server and everyone must publish their free/busy information.
Check from File > Options > Calendar Options > Free/Busy Options.
Make sure the month value for publishing is not zero.
Also, I found a similar thread here:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-GB/exchangesvradmin/thread/5991f3b6-f0cc-432f-82c6-f24da0a42862
You can also try the suggestions in that thread to recreate the web services virtual directory
===============
1. Remove-WebServicesVirtualDirectory -identity "Servername\EWS (Default Web Site)" -identity "Servername\EWS (Default Web Site)"
2. IISReset –noforce
3. New-WebServicesVirtualDirectory
4. IISReset –noforce
If this problem persists, it might be related to some settings on the Exchange server side. You can also post this thread in Exchange server forum:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-GB/exchangesvradmin/threads
Please take your time to try the suggestions and let me know the results at your earliest convenience. If anything is unclear or if there is anything I can do for
