Outlook 2011 for Mac: Occurrence with this index was previously deleted from the recurrence

Client using Outlook 2011 (14.2.4) with Mac OS 10.8.2. 
I've never seen this error before, and it keeps popping up (next to the classic yellow triangle with exclamation point -- I'd post screenshot, but forum isn't letting me.) The message doesn't seem to be related to any specific action.)
Exact text is: Outlook 2011 for Mac: Occurrence with this index was previously deleted from the recurrence.
Any assistance is very much appreciated. 

Unfortunately this did not work for me. There is absolutely nothing in my Drafts folder to be deleted. I'm sure the problem is calendar-related but there is nothing to delete or fix. I ran the Database Utility and it didn't find anything wrong. So I'm stuck
getting an alert "beep" every 8 minutes from Outlook.  
EDIT: OK, so you have to look in "Outbox", not "Drafts". And the "Outbox" does not always appear in the sidebar. When mine finally did (not sure what made it show up, but it may have been me enabling logging), I was able to
delete the offending message.

  • Outlook 2011 for Mac syncing with OSX Yosemite

    Hi All
    One major thing holding me back from updating to Mavericks and Yosemite is the seeming lack of support for syncing between Office 2011 for mac and the mac address book/calendar etc. I've been down the road of internet based mail with gmail and mac-mail but find them awful to use in comparison with Outlook. The functionality is not as good, simple things like capitalising first letters of sentences. Signatures look awful, fonts default etc etc and it just generally looks amateurish from the recipient end. I decided long ago to stick with Outlook 2011 but back then I could sync addresses, emails, contacts with address book and ical hassle free at the touch of a button. I am still running 10.8.5 on the office machine for this very reason and scared to update to Mavericks or Yosemite as I've done on my back-up machine and can see this no longer is supported. Can anyone help with this? I assume as it was once supported and now isn't its unlikely to be resupported. What should I do? I hate the idea of third party applications to get this to work. In the past this has lead to things being messed up and hours spent resetting. There was talk of Office for Mac 2014 but nothing seems to have materialised? Any thoughts/recommendations gratefully received...

    I use Office 2011 on the Mac, and the absence of syncing contacts is a pain. For a while now I've use OS X Mail instead, which by and large handles Exchange email ok. Since Yosemite, my Mac email has gone downwards, so I'm not trying Airmail 2 which also has Exchange support and is a good deal more modern than Mac Mail. There is no sign of Microsoft ever updating Office for the Mac and catching up with three years of not updating Office 2011, apart from the occasional hint.
    With Yosemite, Mail crashes, and looking at the log messages is having issues. I've done a clean install of Yosemite, and despite that still can't achieve stability. It may be me, or it may be Apple, hence the experiment with Airmail 2.
    I have also not found any simple way to sync Outlook 2011 contacts with OS X Contacts in Mavericks or Yosemite.

  • Outlook 2011 for Mac Syncing with iPhone 5

    THIS IS WHAT I HAVE:
    Macbook Pro running OS X (10.8.2) - Mountain Lion
    iPhone 5 running iOS 6.0.1
    Outlook for Mac 2011 (14.2.4)
    I am coming from a PC that ran the most current Outlook and iTunes.  Before I switched to my Macbook Pro I was able to input calendar items into Outlook on the PC and then plug my iPhone 5 into the PC and everything would sync accordingly.  Ever since I switched over to Mac my Outlook calendar items will not sync.
    THIS IS WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DO:
    Sync my Outlook calendar and contacts between my iPhone 5 & my Macbook Pro. It sounds simple but after reading almost every post possible I have come to a conclusion that I might have to switch back to my PC for such a simple problem.
    Can anyone with this same problem help me with success?
    If not is there anyone that can suggest any other way that I can have everything synced up?  I have tried icloud but I don't want everything in the cloud.
    Thank you in advanced.

  • Sync Outlook 2011 for mac and gmail agenda

    Hello,
    I have problem when I try to synchronize outlook 2011 calendar and gmail agenda.
    I do it by synchronizing outlook 2011 (for mac) calendar with iCal and after I synchronize iCal with google agenda.
    When I create a new category for exemple project under outlook and add event to this category, it creates a new calendar project under iCal in the "On my Mac" header. that's ok.
    When I create a new calendar named project under google agenda, I can add it under iCal in the "google" header. that's ok.
    but thuis two calendar (on my mac and in google header) are'nt synchronized in iCal even if they have the same name.
    Do you know a mean to synchronize the calendar ? thanks in advance

    two ways of doing this, you could try http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2452489, or drag each individual calendar event into iCal. You can't do multiple items has to be one... at... a... time.

  • Outlook 2011 for mac calendar and iPhone 6 sync

    Dear All,
    Actually this is very simple question. But unfortunatelly nobody ( Apple and MS side ) answered me clearly.
    So i want to be sure that there is "no way" to synchronize  the Outlook 2011 for Mac "Calendars" with my iPhone6 via iTunes or any other way.
    This was possible old iTunes before, but the new iTunes and Yosemite are not give this chance. So why ? what happened ?
    Please tell me "clearly" IF there is a way. and please specify one by one.
    Thank you very much.
    PS: I am not an exchange user, i am a POP user.

  • Mails with suspicious links are send to contacts in my Outlook 2011 for Mac

    Hi all
    I have now for two days experienced that emails seems to be sent from my Outlook 2011 for Mac to 4 or 5 people from my contacts with suspicious links - they do not apear in my sent box - but I do get an copy sent to my own inbox ?
    Does anyone know what this is and what to do ?
    Regards
    Gert

    Sounds like your mail account has been hacked. Change the password immediately to a long, random, all over the keyboard one. Never use an ordinary word that can be found in the dictionary. My mail pword is 15 characters long.

  • Slow attachment upload with Exchange Web Services (Outlook 2011 for Mac?)

    We're experiencing slow attachment upload with Exchange Web Services versus MAPI, OWA, and Outlook Anywhere.  I'm not totally certain that it is Exchange Web Services or specifically Outlook 2011 for Mac.  I attempted to test with the Mac Mail
    App, but it makes it difficult to tell when the attachment has been uploaded and the file has been sent.  Here's what we're seeing (10mb file):
    MAPI / RPC/HTTPS / OWA: 10-15 seconds upload time
    Exchange Web Services (Outlook 2011 for Mac): 60-90 seconds upload time
    Thoughts? Any idea why we would see such a drastic difference in attachment upload time?  Any way to prove definitively that it is Exchange Web Services vs. Outlook 2011 for Mac?  We've tried it from multiple locations with multiple different machines,
    and although the upload times vary (some locations have more bandwidth etc) the ratios remain similar.

     
    Hi ,
    Does all the user occurred the issue ?
    If only special user, I recommend you do the following steps and test:
    1.Remove and re-add the email account and check if this helps to resolve the issue.
    To remove and add the email accounts:
    Open Outlook > GO to Tools > Accounts > Click on "Minus" symbol to remove and "Plus" to add an Email account.
    2.Creating a new user profile:

    3. If the issue persists, rebuild the data base and check the results:

    You can also post it on Office for MAC forum  to get special support about the difference between Outlook and Outlook for MAC.

  • Sync Notes in Outlook 2011 for Mac with BB Q5

    As per KB27248, Notes in Outlook 2011 for Mac are not synced with BB devices running OS7 (although Contacts, Calendar & Tasks sync), & the issue hasn't been resolved.
    Does this issue exist on Q5 running OS10?

    Hey hpujary.
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    At this time, only contacts can be synchronized with BlackBerry Link software and a BlackBerry 10 Smartphones. The functionality to provide more options for PIM synchronization may be added in the future. I cannot say for certain that the issue outlined in KB27248 is resolved for BlackBerry 10 Smartphones as the functionality does not exist to confirm.
    Cheers.

  • Outlook 2011 for Mac not authenticating with Exchange 2010

    Hi,
    We have an issue with our Mac Clients authenticating with our Exchange Server. We have Exchange 2010 Version 14.03.0174.001. 
    Outlook is saying the credentials are incorrect for the user when we know they work fine in OWA and in Outlook 2010.
    It seems this is since we re-keyed are SSL certificate. I have changed the EWS directory to Basic Authentication and also re-created the EWS directory. I have also re-ran all the SBS Wizards.
    Is there anything else we can do to get this sorted?
    Thanks
