Microsoft Office 2011 won't work with Mountain Lion update

I have an early 2011 version Macbook Pro. Until yesterday I have been running Lion, I updated to Mountain Lion last night and now my Microsoft Office 2011 won't work. Does anyone know how to fix this?

When I try to open any MS Office program or file I get an error message that reads "Microsoft Office cannot open because of a problem. Check with the developer to make sure Microsoft (Outlook, Word etc.) works with this version of OS X you may need to reinstall the application..." the problem is I bought this Mac used and I don't have the disc to reinstall the application. I've gone to the MS Office 2011 Mac website and downloaded a service pack and an update (the only two things available to me) but that still doesn't help. Where would I find the update you are describing?

I've been using Outlook with Gmail ever since Outlook replaced Entourage and have never encountered any problems.
Your incoming and outgoing server names are correct, but I'm use port 993 for imap.gmail.com and port 465 for smtp.gmail.com. I'm also using SSL on both ports and have Authentication set for username and password (using the "Advanced" button in Account setup) for the smtp server.
Good luck - I think that you just have a port problem...

Outlook 2011 won't send emails after updating to 10.8.5

After updating to 10.8.5, I can no longer send emails out of my .mac account. I am using Outlook 2011 and have double checked the outgoing server settings and everyting checks out fine. Seems to be a compatability issue now with Outlook and iOS. Can anyone confirm this or know how to fix this problem? Thanks

BTW - the error message that comes up is: "5.7.8 Bad username or password (Authentication failed)..."

Outlook 2011 won't sync with Address Book iCal, etc.

We recently adopted Outlook for the Mac 2011 (we used Exchange) for our platform because of Exchange compatibility issues with other applications. Despite the clear statement in Outlook Sync Services that it will sync with Address Book and iCal, I cannot get it to sync with either. I've looked around the forums, and deleted plist files, but nothing. My iSync says that I have no devices, but I'm only trying to sync between Exchange and the apps on my MBP (I also have an iPhone but I'm okay with Exchange there). I'm also reading about problems with iCloud and Exchange; is this the problem?
I'm not ordinarily this stupid, but I'm hitting a brick wall here.

You must be on OS X 10.7 in order to use iCloud.
OS X 10.7 (Lion) is available in the App Store as a digital download. It is $29. Best practice - be sure to make a backup copy of your computer before upgrading any software.
After you download and install 10.7 Lion, you will have an iCloud icon in System Preferences.

Two versions of Outlook, iCloud won't work

I have iCloud on my Windows 7 laptop. I also have Office 2010. My email, calendar, RSS, etc. are set up in Outlook 2010. I also have an iPhone 4S. iCloud and PhotoStream worked just fine until a couple of weeks ago.
I started some work from home that required me to install Office 2013 Pro - with Office 365 online - on my laptop, including Outlook 2013. Now iCloud and PhotoStream no longer work - when I opened the iCloud control panel to see what the problem was, there was a message stating:
Multiple Outlook versions installed.
You can't use iCloud when multiple versions of Outlook are installed. To use iCloud with Outlook, uninstall one version.
Is there any way around this? I don't want to set up my personal stuff in Outlook 2013, for the people I'm working for to access. I can't uninstall Outlook 2013 without uninstalling all of Office 2013. I'd really like my iCloud to work again!
Thanks for either a solution, or a definite no. ;-)
Error message shown below:

From the sounds of that error message it sound like you can't do it.

Outlook 2010 won't work

I receive the following error when trying to set up an account for outlook 2010.
The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action.

Hi,
You may need to create a new profile to setup your account:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/829918/en-us
If this issue persists, you need to start/restart the Microsoft Exchange System Attendant service on your Exchange Server. This helped some users in this thread:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/exchange/en-US/02e4bdec-324f-4b84-9445-39b781772318/the-connection-to-microsoft-exchange-is-unavailable-outlook-must-be-online-or-connected-to-complete?forum=exchangesvrclientslegacy
I hope this helps.

Microsoft Outlook 2011 Stopped Working

Not sure if this is the right place to be posting this, but I don't know where to post it and really need some help.
Microsoft Outlook 2011 just stopped working, other Office apps run just fine. When clicking Outlook to launch, it bounces 2 - 3 times and just stops launching without an error msg.
I've tried launching it under another user acct and it opens fine.
Tried creating a new Office Identity under the user acct where it doesn't launch, and that didn't fix the problem. Tried rebuilding identity, tried removing preferences from User/Library/Preference/Microsoft.
Any ideas? Thank you!

I got Outlook to launch by completely deleting my "Identity" and creating a new one. Is there any way to get it to actually repair the old Identity or am I now going to lose everything?
Unless you have a backup of the identity you deleted, you've already lost everything. That's where all of your contacts and emails are stored.
If you still have the old identity, put it on the desktop and try doing an import into the new identity you created.
In answer to the general complaints that "it doesn't work":
Any program can have issues from computer to computer. Various things can cause issues that shouldn't, or wouldn't otherwise exist. I'm running the latest version of Office 2011 and have absolutely no issues with it. And haven't from the day it was released.

How to transfer outlook 2011 calendar to iCloud calendar?

I am using Outlook 2011 for Mac and can't seem to move the calendar items to the iCloud calendar. In addition, my iCal calendar doesn't even resemble either the iCloud calendar (virtually empty) or the Outlook calendar. How do I sync them all together? Also, I have over 3,000 duplicate calendar entries for some events and need to erase the duplicates.

Outlook itself won't work with iCloud, but if you are using Address Book, you simply need to move your contacts from the 'On My Mac' account to the iCloud account.
This user tip might help you understand how accounts work with Address Book.

My Macbook Air 2011 will not allow me to add Gmail accounts to my Mac Outlook 2011

been through the ringer...called Microsoft, contacted Gmail, Apple and a tech support from my IProvder. With that being said I have another mac, iMac 2013 with the exact same version of Mac Outlook 2011 that works...I went through the 2nd step verification and had to delete as it was causing even more problems.
Should be a simple set up of google but Mac Outlook 2011 won't take it. My internet google acounts are all working and so is my MAC mail.
Any direction or help would be appreciated.

Outlook 2011 for Mac: where are 'Suggested Contacts'?

Hello,
I have a MacBook Air 1st Generation (A1237), with OS.X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard).
Have installed MS Office, including Outlook 2011 and everything works fine.
However, I don't see the 'Suggested Contacts' folder in Outlook.
Auto-complete works fine, but I would like to add to my contacts some of the addresses I find when auto-complete makes suggestions.
I looked everywhere, but I can't find the Suggested Contacts folder or the list of addresses auto-complete retrieves from.
Can you help? Is it an issue with my 'vintage' Mac?
Thanks!

Thanks Julian for the suggestion. Unfortunately all still checked out and nothing amiss. However, after reinstalling OS 10.6.8 it appears that my calendar items are syncing once again, but not my contacts. I appreciate the suggestion none the less.
This same thing seems to happen each time I've upgraded Office with the associated version of Entourage, and now Outlook. Ah, well..nothing's ever simple. But I am thoroughly enjoying Outlook and the rest of the Office suite.

Outlook 2011 for Mac Exchange 2010 asking for credentials after Patch Tuesday March 2015

Up till this past Tuesday when Microsoft released its new security patches, I had all my Outlook 2011 for Mac working just fine. Since the release of March 2015, we have heard of issues resulting in Outlook problems with a certain security patches blocking
connectivity. We are carrying Exchange 2010 with SP3 roll up 7. This is only happening on my macs. I have uninstalled the patch in question but the problem persists. Can anyone please shed some light as to what I can do?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance...
Carlos

Hi Carlos,
This forum is for general questions and feedback related to Outlook for Windows. Since the problematic account can work well in Outlook 2010 with Windows 7 but not in Outlook for Mac 2011, I suggest we can ask a question in
Outlook for Mac 2011 forum for more troubleshooting.
The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us.
Thanks for your understanding.

Spotlight not indexing outlook 2011 files

I've found several articles on Outlook 2011 search not working and it pointing to issues with spotlight. I tried all the proposed fixes including the changes listed here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2473212. Nothing seems to be working though these are all geared towards Lion 10.7. Also, in spotlight on 10.8 I don't see a mail messages, I see Mail and Chats but it has a mail.app logo next to it which I'm assuming is looking at a different directory. How can remediate this problem? Not having search functionality is not acceptable. Please help.

Hi,
Just found a solution to this problem and seems to be working.
Open System preferences.
Select Spotlight
Select Privacy
Open a separate Finder window and select 'Documents'.
Go find 'Microsoft User data'
Then find 'Office 2011 Identities'.
Drag 'Office 2011 Identities' to the other window open "Privacy" amongst the spotlight settings.
What this does is tell spotlight to NOT search in outlook, the very opposite to what you want!
However, you then need to highlight the 'Office 2011 Identities' folder and click the - sign which removes it. Your now telling it you want to INCLUDE this folder for when spotlight searches.
By removing adding and removing it, its a bit like the classic IT solution of switch it off and on again. It forces the spotlight to re index everything and therefore including outlook for when searching using spotlight.
Depending on your outlook file size, it could take hours or even days so be patient. If you run a search for something to do with outlook in 'spotlight' you should see its indexing with a blue progress bar. Its working.
Lastly, incase your wondering why this answer involves spotlight and you just wanted a fix for the outlook search and filters, its because outlook for Mac actually uses spotlight behind the scenes.
