Outlook categorize option disabled

Hi all,
I have a client of mine that uses Outlook 2013 that is synced with a corporate account that is hosted in google's services. The problem is that the categorize (with colours ) option is disabled. More specifically when doing right click in a mail there is not
such an option. Also when i add them to the ribbon there grey-out and i cannot click them.
I only tried the "Upgrade to Color Categories" option in the data file properties menu with no luck.
All this happened cause earlier his account was set up with GASMO and he experienced an error "Cannot display the folder. There is not enough free memory to run
this program. Quit one or more programs, and then try again" when he tried to open his email folders. With GASMO while it was working we could use the categorize with color options but then again we had the above error so i sync the account as
an imap and the problem solved but the again we have the categorise issue.
Please keep in mind that i do not want to use the POP protocol as is very irritating (it hasn't a sync with the server for any changes you make to mails in outlook).
Please advise.
Thanks

Hi,
Did you configure the email account via IMAP? Please note that IMAP account protocol does not support the category property. Since you don't want to use the POP protocol, you can either move the mail to separate folders to separate it or use Conditional
Formatting to highlight messages. To use Conditional Formatting, click View tab > View Settings > Conditional Formatting... See:

If I've misunderstood something, please feel free to let me know.

  • Is there an issue with Safari in Iphones and Ipads where it does not recognize option disabled="disabled" tag properly?

    Greetings everybody,
    I have run into a peculiar problem with the Safari browser on mobile platforms (IPad, IPod, IPhone) which I hope I can find a solution for in this community.
    I just launched a new website where I sell products with certain variations, for example please view this link: http://www.finerribbon.com/aegean-single-face-satin-ribbon.html
    On this particular product, the product variants are supposed to work in such a way where:
    If you select the value "1/8" from the "Choose Ribbon Width" field
    THEN
    The only options active and available to choose from in the "Choose Roll Size" field should be: 500 Yds, 20 Yds & Sample Swatch
    Now, if we browse to the above link in Safari using a desktop or a laptop, there are no problems at all, but if we browse to the above link using an IPhone or an Ipad, then we have a problem where all the options are available regardless of the values chosen, basically the above functonality does not work.
    I was told that there an issue with Safari in Iphones and Ipads where it does not recognize option disabled="disabled" tag properly, is this true? Can anyone advise me if there is a solution to this problem? I would sincerely apperciate it.
    Thank you very much for your time and help!

  • How to make right click options disable on JTextArea.

    Hi,
    How would I make mouse right click options disable on JTextArea.
    Can any one help me in this regard.

    Hi,
    I used JTextArea in my work. If I righy click on this area, a pop up menu is appearing with cut,copy,paste and select All options. I would like to disable all these options. Can u suggest me in this regard.
    Thanks.Did you create this PopupMenu yourself? If you did, then you should have access to the JMenuItems used, so you can call setEnabled(false/true) on them to enable/disable them.
    If you didn't create the Popup yourself, then you should check if you can obtain the PopupMenu by calling getComponentPopupMenu( ) or some other method to obtain the popup menu and subsequently its menu items and call setEnabled( ) on them.
    If the popup menu uses Actions instead of JMenuItems, the same principle applies since Action objects also have a setEnabled( ) method

  • How to put the categorize option on the right click of the mouse option in Outlook 2013

    In Outlook 2010 I was able to right click and categorize my emails. In Outlook 2013 I have not figured out how to use the right click on a message to put it into a assigned category. Is there a way to add a short cut on the right click?

    Hi,
    The categories option should be there the same as Outlook 2010. Please try to run Outlook in safe mode (outlook.exe /safe) to check if there are some add-Ins blocked this.
    If safe mode doesn't fix this issue, I would suggest you to create a new Outlook data profile to check behavior. For how to create an Outlook profile, please refer to:
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/create-an-outlook-profile-HA102749460.aspx
    Also, please note that if you are using an IMAP account, then you will not able to see categories options as the IMAP account protocol does not support the category property.

  • Allow changing of Outlook anywhere options after applying GPO

    Policy
    Setting
    Configure Outlook Anywhere user interface options       
    Enabled
    All config UI enabled
    I have used the outlook2010 GPO template to configure outlook anywhere settings. However after enabling these options, the user can no longer change the outlook anywhere settings (all greyed out). So I enabled the above GPO in outlook 2010 ADMX template.
    "This policy setting allows you to determine whether users can view and change user interface (UI) options for Outlook Anywhere.If you enable this policy setting, users can view and change UI options for Outlook Anywhere.If you disable or do not configure
    this policy setting, users will be able to use the Outlook Anywhere feature, but they will not be able to view or change UI options for it."
    However after performing gpupdate, it has no effect, users still cannot change any of the outlook anywhere settings. Here are the download locations for the admx templates if anyone else would like to test and confirm this issue.

  • Connect to Outlook button is disabled in ribbon

    I have a publishing site.
    In this site I enabled feature "Team Collaboration Lists" which gave me the option to add "Calendar" web part in my publishing site page.
    I added calendar web part but the button "Connect to Outlook" is disabled in ribbon. In fact all buttons under "Calendar" tab are disabled such as "Export to Excel", "Open with Access", "Edit List", "List
    Settings etc.
    I read somewhere that I need to enable feature "Offline Synchronization for External Lists" which I did but still "Connect to Outlook" is disabled.
    I am logged in as Site Collection Administrator.
    I have tried this in both IE and Chrome.
    I am using SharePoint 2013 and Exchange 2010.
    I know SharePoint 2013 can't sync with Exchange 2010 but at least the button should be enabled.
    On this machine Outlook or any MS Office component is not installed. Could it be because of this?
    Or may be I didn't add the correct calendar web part and there is some other calendar web part which can be synced with Outlook?

    Yes, you need 32bit Office 2010 or 2013 installed on the client to enable those buttons.

  • How do I "Print Booklet" with just odd pages and even pages for duplexing . . options disabled

    I have InDesign CS5.5 on a Windows 7 64-bit machine hooked to a Xerox 7750 printer.  I have created a 8.5x11 portrait document and trying to create a booklet on 12x18 sheets.
    I need to print duplex manually and so I need to print just the odd spreads and then the even spreads.
    I have printed to Adobe PDF and printed from my created PDF file and have it working, but I want to know why InDesign won't let me do it.  When I click "File > Print Booklet > Print Settings" then it shows the Print Dialog box with the Pages section, which includes the Sequence that normally would allow me to do Odd Pages or Even Pages, but it is disabled.  Why?  I can define Print Presets and I can choose Odd Pages, but when I choose that in the Preset box it does not show anything, everything is still disabled.
    Anybody have any idea of why it is disabled?  Is it my printer driver?

    I too was very frustrated after upgrading to indesign cs5.5 and the latest LION OS on my new MAC.  I missed the odd/even page selection in the print dialog box within Indesign.  I tried about everything and found little of value in various forums.  But I did find a workable solution that makes since in terms of Apple's OS.
    My objective is to "impose" my document and also end up with a file that I can just print again and again without "ripping" in the InDesign Print Booklet Dialog.
    Here is the quick version of what to do.  I am not including every little step with pictures. =)  (I can if there is interest.)
    1. create your document
    2. Print Booklet
    3. At the first dialog box, just ignore the printer in print preset (you will come back to this) and go to the 2-up perfect bound option and select 16 page signatures.  This will impose 2-up on 4 physical pieces of paper printed both sides.  So 16 of your document pages printed duplex on 4 physical sheets of paper.  It would be nice to then just select the printer and scaling, etc. and the option to print even pages, flip over and then print odd pages but that ain't an option.  If you have different needs, do the math and input the correct numbers before proceeding
    4. Click on Print Settings  to pull up a second dialog box.
    5. Select for Printer PostScript File (not your printer)  Also select for PPD your printer or Adobe PDF 9 if you have that installed.  Don't obsess on this just pick your Printer for the PPD.
    6. Select 1 copy and All Pages while in the General Tab
    7. Select the Setup Tab Here is where you put in the actual physical paper size that you are going to print your document on. Don't scale to fit.  You must do this.  If you feel the need, check out all the tabs and options but for now, you are just trying to get an output file.  You probably do want to select CENTER for page position in this same setup tab.
    8. Hit OK whcih will return you to the original dialog.  Check when you return to be sure that at the top Printer is populated with PostScript File.  Click on Print and give the thing a name and a location to save at the resulting dialog.
    Breathe as you are almost home.  You have sucessfully created a file that can be called up again and again without opening InDesign. (albeit, a postscript file but not a problem)
    Now,
    1. Double click on this new file (it will have a .ps extention) or just open it in your PREVIEW (apple supplied utility)   Preview is where you accomplish the even and odd page objective.
    2. Preview will show you a short progress dialog while it rips this postscript file into a PDF.
    3. Click on PRINT
    4. Select your printer,page range, select the Paper Size (again not document size  but  the size sheet that you are printing the 2-up , imposed (booklet) document on. If not in the selection dialog, then use the custom option to create it (custom paper size) and give it a name.
    5. Click on SCALE and insert 100% in place of the weird number that it will insert for you.  You will then see your document correctly displayed in the sidebar preview window.
    6.  OK, now what you have been waiting for. Click on the box that says Preview (the active window) and select Paper Handling from the drop-down and select from Pages to Print the coveted odd or even page selection.  You can also do other things that should have been back at the InDesign print dialog but are now gone.  Explore. Enjoy.
    7.  You will have to work out your own work flow about reverse or no reverse order and how to flip, etc. But you will be working with something predictable at this point.
    8.  Since this has been ripped into a PDF , you might as well Click on the PDF button and click on save as a PDF at this point to save that postscript to PDF rip.   Also print using PREVIEW for the newly created PDF file next time as you will not have to learn a bunch of new dialogs and be frustrated all over again.
    I am now back in business printing the book blocks for my handbound journals.

  • How to fix acrobat/pagemaker plug-in for Outlook 2013 from disabling on restart?

    I have an issue with one of my customers where they have to go in and manually enable the Adobe Acrobat plug-in for Outlook 2013 every time they close and re-open Outlook or restart their computer.  When I go into Add-Ins in Outlook the plug-in isn't in the disabled COM add-ins, but in  the Inactive Application Add-ins section and the user needs to click on Go and then check the box to enable it.  This happens everytime Outlook is restarted or the computer is restarted.  Anyone seen this issue and have a fix?  it's a Windows 7 pro machine running Adobe Acrobat X and Office 2013 (cloud install).  Office and Windows are all patched and up to date.  Running "check for updates" within Acrobat says it's up to date also.  Thanks for any input or help in advance.

    Sounds like the Security settings in the registry for Outlook 2013/Office 2013 are stuck and not letting you permantly change/the setting.  This has more to do with Office than it does with Acrobat so you may want to go to the MS website to see where these settings live in the Windows registry.

  • Save option disabled in Reader 7 when another user works on the same PDF

    Hi, I'm a first time user of Acrobat Pro 8.1 and 9. I'm creating PDF forms. When I open the forms in Reader 7 and work on them, I can directly save it, I do not have to do 'Save as'. However, when I copy this document on another machine, open it in Reader 7 and make changes, the 'save' option is disabled, whereas, I can do a 'Save as'.
    My client does not want to do a "Save as'. They want to modify the original document and just click 'save'.
    I would like to know if this is an internal feature of Reader 7. Please provide a solution, if any
    P.S: I'm enabling usage rights in Acrobat Professional, still the Save option is not available in machines which don't have Acrobat Professional.

    The document can be copied on another machine in two ways:
    1. The document can be sent by mail and copied to the recipients local drive.
    2. It can be placed on a share drive and copied on another machine.
    I am enabling rights through Advanced> Enable usage rights in Acrobat Professional 8.1. Do I need the Adobe Livecycle Reader extension software as well to enable local save in Reader 7?
    Please provide me a solution.
