You are not the only person that had this happen.  It happened to me and others.  You may very well have the same problem some of us had.  There is another thread which discusses this problem.
Here's the link: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19064912#19064912
I fixed this problem on two of my machines.  Others doing what I did were successful, also.

    Error code: MobileMe Services has encountered a problem and needs to close
    I get this mesage everytime i open Outlook and it slows down opening. This problem started when itunes updated. What do I do to solve this?

    Hi turingtest2 (you pass, BTW):  Thanks for the speedy reply.  MobileMe doesn't appear in the list of programs which can be uninstalled.  I tried the link you suggest: http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall but when I tried to "Run Now", I get the error message:  " Troubleshooting cannot continue because an error has occurred... etc.... [code 80072F8F]"  So googled this error & found a tool called (80072f8f) Repair Tool   -  I'm leery to download yet more stuff from non-microsoft sites -- any recommendations?

  • Outlook 2011 problem syncing contacts with address book

    I am aware that Lion has broken the sync ability of Outlook 2011 with Address Book. Hopefullly this will be fixed at some point.
    So my problem is that I have decided to use a workaround to get my Address Book contents into Outlook 2011. I am not concerned with further syncing at this point. I just want to get my addresses into Outlook and hope a better fix is offered at some point.
    About the only way I could figure out how to do this was to export my Address Book as vCard. I then imported the vCard file into Gmail and then exported that as a CSV file. It contained 550 addresses. I opened it in Excel and it contained 550 rows. Great so far.
    I then Imported into Outlook 2011 and chose import a text file. When the mapping window opened, it showed over 890 files instead of 550 and the fields were not mapped correctly. I could not complete the import because it was so screwed up.
    So I'm back to square one and very frustrated. There must be others who have the same issue and maybe have figured out a way to do this. Please help.

  • Outlook 2011 became slow with Yosemite when online

    Dear all,
    I have a iMac 24-inch, early 2009. (processor 2.93 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 8 Gbytes DDR3, NVDIA Ge Force GT 120 256 Mb, with HD SATA with 626,2 Gb free).
    I install from scratch Yosemite (10.10) and also from scratch, Microsoft Office 2011.
    Applied all the upgrades, 10.4.6 (service pack 3).
    Set my account as usual.
    Outlook opens without problem but at each "click" on a message, body of a message, calendar entries, etc.., I got the spinning cursor (rainbow colour) and keeps spinning for more than 15 seconds.
    Also I have the same behaviour in my Mac Book Air (8 GB RAM, 512 SSD, Yosemite 10.10)
    I notice that if my iMac is not connected to the internet, it is very fast. And when I change it status to online I starting having the same problems as described.
    Is there anyone with the same behaviour? Any suggestion (remember, my installation is totaly done from scratch)
    Thank you
    Best Regards
    Mario

    Thank you Tim,
    I will move it to iMac forum.
    By the way MS Office is up to date.
    Thank you

  • Office/Outlook 2011, unable to open, unable find/change identity

    I have a brand new iMac 10.9.5 and have just purchased Office 2011 14.4.0. When I open Word I get the error 'There is a problem with the word database'.
    This same error happens with each of the other Office programs except Outlook which does not even open, it just says 'Could not change to that identity'.
    I have tried following advice from many other forums in the forms of rebuilding the database or changing identity, even uninstall reinstall and still can not get the error to go away.
    This is really disappointing for a brand new machine and Office 2011.
    The one thing that was suggested and worked was try logging on as a guest user and that worked, no errors and all programs worked fine (very strange

    Since it worked in the other account, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.

  • Using Outlook 2011 for mac and syncing blackberry very slow

    I just bought 2 pcs of Mcabook pro. one for me and second for my cousin. we both have same office usage.i have installed office 2011. i use contacts / events / tasks of outlook and sync it with my blackberry curve. previously i was using Windows OS and i am so much used to it with its easy functionalities. Since last 15 days i have not done any work in my office as all time i am just involved in setting up one or another thing in my Macbook. i am really so much fed up and frustrated that i am thinking of switching back to Windows. i have some current issues like
    Airport disconnects automatically anytime. after then i have to restart the system that is the only way. it shows as connected but i dont find my home network or internet. after restarting it works !!! it happens 4-5 times in a day...
    Sync with blackberry is very slow. i do have Approx 2500 contacts / 300 tasks and 10-15 events. but it takes approx 10 times more time than i was doing with Windows.
    in the blackberry desktop manager there is only one option of syncing i.e. Two way sync. what if i only want to transfer data from Macbook to Blackberry or from Blackberry to Macbook?
    data sync is not perfect also. every time some entries goes missing.
    i want to use ical for events and tasks.. but i dont find List view for events which is not convinient.
    i have my e mails in Outlook 2011 for mac. what if i want to transfer my mail to mail for mac?
    i will be obliged if anyone can help and show that my INR 70000.00 * 2 is not wasted... Frustrated Really...

    Good luck with that.
    You're not going to like this answer, but you should let Exchange be your e-mail system.  Move off Gmail to Exchange on-premises or Online.

  • 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.

  • Outlook 2010 - User tends to open many emails at a go but this may slow down the machine.

    Hi,
    My user tends to have this work habit of opening 8-10 emails at one go. She view this way of working as more efficient and faster. But this means that if outlook crashed, all the emails will be close as well, and this way of working tends to slow down the
    machine.
    Is there any way Outlook can users to open multiple emails without hording CPU page milage?
    Thank you.

    Hi Josh,
    Slow Outlook can be also harmful for your database and there are numbers of factor which slow down the MS-Outlook like:
    * Third Party Plug-ins
    * Slow internet connection
    * Antivirus/ Firewall Programs
    * Corruption or Error within Outlook
    So always try to open Microsoft Outlook in safe mode whenever you stuck in such problems. 
    How to optimize Outlook performance:
    * By Disabling add-ins
    * Check default account settings
    * Disabling Scanning programs
    * Scanpst.exe (Inbox Repair Tool)

  • Outlook 2011 slow, clunky and keeps crashing with macbook pro os 10.8.4 - any hints??  ta :)

    Outlook 2011 slow, clunky and keeps crashing with macbook pro os x 10.8.4 - any hints??  ta

    You might look in your User Library for Outlook .plist(s). They probably start with com.microsoft.
    Quit Outlook.
    Either hold down the option key while using the Finder “Go To Folder” command and select your user Library in your home folder or use the Finder “Go To Folder” command and enter ~/Library/Preferences.  Move the .plist(s) to your desktop.
    Open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist(s) from the desktop.
    If the application is the same, return the .plist(s) to where you got them from, overwriting the newer ones.
    If you prefer to make your user library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
    Show User Library
    You might want to bookmark the command. I had to use it again after I installed 10.8.4. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

  • UAG problems with OSX - same problem with Mac Mail and Outlook 2011 (via EWS)

    Hi folks,
    I'm trying to fix the last snagging issue I have with OSX clients in a UAG / Exchange 2010 deployment:
    When trying to connect Mac Mail or Outlook 2011 the connections are very slow to start up, both at initial config and thereafter.
    On connection I see lots of the same error re Session Cookies in UAG and no connection in the mail client. If I leave it for a few minutes, sometime many minutes, the errors stop and I eventually get a working connection.
    The error is:
    "Sesson Attempted to Access Restricted Application"
    User with source IP address x.x.x.x  tried to access application Exchange EWS that was restricted that was restricted for the session. This might indicate an intrusion attempt by misusing the session cookie.
    Has anyone got any suggestions on how to fix this ?
    Many thanks
    Steve

    Ruud, no, we didn't find a solution, or rather our solution (so far) is to tell users not to use Mac Mail and to use Outlook 2011 instead, which seems to work fine (after some Office updates!)...and we haven't upset anyone with that requirement
    (yet).
    There are some very long discussions on Apple support forums about the whole Mavericks / Mac Mail / Exchange 2010 issues.
    I do hope to have another go at this problem sometime soon, I'm sure there must be a solution (and my money says it relates our hardware load balancers).
