Outlook for Mac. All emails go to trash.

Thank you.
I have just configured my company emails to Outlook for Mac on my MacBookPro. It worked well, but as of last Thursday, all of my incoming emails will go first to inbox and then immediately go to trash. They are shown unopened in trash.
Now, I have two accounts going to OutLook. My hotmail account is going there with no issues.
Thanks,
Randall

For the second problem, as long as the email is left on the server, all other devices and webmail will download the messages with they retrieve mail. The only way to stop that is to set each device or application to delete the message from the server once read, moved from the inbox, or immediately after downloading. You can do this on some or all devices.
Example: you can set your iPhone to leave the messages on the server if you want to download them later on your computer and you can set your computer to delete the message when downloaded on it so you won't have to view them on the iPhone later. However, if your iPhone is always on and it downloads email before you download it to the computer, it will still be on your iPhone.
These settings can be done in Mail>Preferences under the Accounts Tab and advanced Tab. How you set each device depends on how you want to keep mail. Most people want to save a copy forever. If so, you need to make sure they stay on the server until they are downloaded on the device you want to keep them on. If you don't need to keep messages, then set each device to delete from the server once downloaded.
If you have an IMAP account, then things get a bit different on everything. I should have asked that first.
On you original problem, when using so many devices, things get confusing when using so many devices to access the same things. Especially with IMAP. Settings on one can change the behavior on other devices. Does the problem of your messages going to the trash happen only when you read it on the MacBook first, or is it random even when you first view it on the Mac Pro. And, if it's in the trash on the Mac Pro, is it in the trash on the iPad also?

Did you set up your phone to sync Contacts with iCloud? If not sure, you can log in to https://www.icloud.com and see if your contacts are there.

HT3748 since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my Mac Mail no longer works well w/exchange email; so, I have had to switch back to outlook. Now, how can I use outlook for mac's calendar and contacts with icloud?

Since uprgading to Mountain Lion, my mac mail no longer works with my exchange email properly. I finally gave up and moved back to outlook for mac, but now my new issue is using outlook calendar and contacts with icloud; possible?

Sorry but I'm really not to sure what I have. I'm not good with knowing my computer model. All I know is that its a MacBook running with Leopard. I got my computer last year so I suppose its fairly new. Is there a place on my computer where I can check to see what it is (sorry to be so dumb with my own mac)
And everything else works fine. I love Safari. It's just my mail that doesn't work. Here's the message that pop up several times.
"The MobileMe IMAP server “mail.mac.com” rejected the password for user “akcastaldo”
Please re-enter your password, or cancel."
The only problem here is, even though I enter my password it doesn't do anything. It makes that message go away for about 3-5 mins. After that it pops right back up. And I can't even go into my preference and change my email password. So I don't know what to do.

Unable to attach PDF to email (Outlook for Mac 2011)

We are pushing out software upgrades for CS5 and MS Office 2011 for Mac. We've discoverd that we can't use the Attach to email feature in Acrobat. The spinning rainbow wheel pops up for about a minute, and then Acrobat is non-responsive and we have to force quit. We can still drag and drop an attachment so we have a viable workaround but obviously we'd like to be able to use the automated feature.
All software is up-to-date.
In the preferences panel of Outlook, we have selected Outlook to be the default mail application.
As a sidenote, this feature doesn't work with Acobat X beta either. However, in the beta version of Acrobat X, if we declare Apple's mail application to be the default, it works fine. Unfortunately we use the Office suite as part of our enterprise system, so that's what we need to work with.
Has anyone else experienced this? I've logged a ticket with Adobe but I haven't heard back from them yet.
Thanks for any advise.

Take the bhama way
figured out how to make it work. I am using Adobe Acrobat X Pro (mac)
and MS Outlook for Mac 2011.
For those who are interested, this is what I did:
1. Create a folder on desktop to save your pdf¹s files you want to email
to. Mine is named, "PDF to Email"
2. Open Automator, create a "Folder Action"
3. At the top, "Choose Folder", choose your newly created folder on the
desktop
4. Choose the "Rename Finder Items" action from the action list. I chose,
"Don¹t Add" on the add a Copy Finder Items Action menu.
5. On the "Add Date or Time to Finder Item Names" I chose, "Name Single
Item" from the first drop down menu.
6. Click on "Options" at the bottom of that window to select the "Show
this action when the workflow runs" so you can rename your file
something other than the Acrobat default.
7. Choose the "Create New Outlook Mail Message" from the action list and
add it below the "Name Single Item in Finder Item Names"
8. Choose "File>Save As" and give your file a name. Mine is, "PDF to
Email".
9. Close Automator
10. Open Acrobat X Pro.
11. Go to "File>Action Wizard>Create New Action"
12. Here you choose, "Save to>A Folder on my computer"
13. Choose the folder on the desktop that we saved earlier
14. Save the file, with the action name you will remember.
Now when you are in Acrobat X Pro and you want to send that .pdf file via
Outlook for Mac 2011, follow the steps below.
With the file you want to email open, go to "File>Action Wizard>(Action
you created) Mine is "PDF to Email". It will take a few seconds, but you
will get an "Action Completed". You will get a pop up that allows you to
name/rename the file. Then it should open your Outlook with your .pdf
attached and ready for sending.
You might need to tweak the actions to suit your needs, but this should
work for you.

Outlook for Mac won't retain restored email database.

Hi all.
A couple of days ago I performed an export of what I thought was just pre-2014 emails from my Outlook for Mac 2011 program.
I turned out that all the emails were exported and, for some stupid reason, I had clicked the "delete" button during the export process so they all went.
The export file is around 2.5GB, which seems about right for the number of emails that were exported.
The problem is that I've been unable to import the emails back into the program. The instant error message I get says: "Outlook did not import an all your data. You stopped the import process before it was completed."
This happens even though I don't actually do anything.
Now this is where it gets weird, I have done two complete reinstalls from my Time Capsule. On both occasions, all my email reappears in the inbox, but then as soon as Outlook starts to sync, they begin to disappear.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can permanently restore my old emails?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

HT4864 My outgoing email as stopped working when using Outlook for mac 2011. Any suggestions?

My outgoing email as stopped working when using Outlook for mac 2011. I have deleted and reinstalled the account twice. I have 11 gig free on my iCloud account. The outgoing server is set at smtp.mail.me.com using port 587. If I was able to reinstall the account, I am positive I have the correct password. I can log into my iCloud accout using the same credentials.
Any suggestions?

I called Microsoft to fix my problem...for those maybe having the same issue, I was told by the Tech to use this outgoing server setting - p06-smtp.mail.me.com
All is working fine since doing so.

Unable to send email from Mac using Outlook for Mac 2011

I have a single user that cannot send email from the Mac after migrating to Exchange 2013 on-prem. I myself am on the same Exchange server and am using a Mac with Office 2011 and am able to send/receive emails without any issues.
When the user sends an email it goes to the sent mail folder and syncs with the server and can be seen on a windows machine running any other version of Office (same in OWA). I've logged the user in on my Mac and blown away my profile and seeing the same issue.
Not sure if this narrows my issue down to the Exchange server receiving the send request from a Mac or if it's some setting in Outlook on the Mac?
I do not see anything in the logs on the server and have not seen any error son the Mac.
Any thoughts as to where my issues is?

Hi,
According to your description, I find that there is a single user cannot send email.
I suggest using Outlook on Windows machine and sending emails via this single user to verify whether the emails can be sent.
If the single user can send email via Outlook on Windows machine, it seems an issue on the Mac side.
I suggest asking Outlook for Mac Forum for help so that we can get more professional suggestions.
For your convenience:

If can't send emails in Outlook, it seems an issue on the single user side.
I suggest trying to access the single user's mailbox via OWA to verify whether the mailbox has been migrated completely.
Thanks

I'm too old to learn iCal. How do I tell iTunes to synch with Outlook for Mac for all of the Contacts and the Calendar on my iPhone and iPad?? Thanks

I'm too old to learn iCal. How do I tell iTunes to synch with Outlook for Mac for all of the Contacts and the Calendar on my iPhone and iPad??
Also, once I figure out how to replace iCal with Outlook/Mac on iTunes, how do I synch the phone and pad so that the information on those devices over-writes onto Outlook as a backup, rather than having a blank Calendar on Outlook wipe out all of the information on the phone and pad???
Thanks

If you haven't tried already, plug your devices into iTunes, and on each device next to the "Summary" tab at the top is another tab called "Info." Click that and scroll down to Contacts, Calendars, etc. There should be a pull down bar under each category for "Sync contacts from..." and you should be able to select from that pull down list Outlook. Hit Apply at the bottom and see if that does it.

Additional file size is added to my PDF when attaching it to an email in Outlook for Mac 2011

I'm generating PDFs from Adobe Pro X. I have a 7.23MB PDF file that becomes a 9.8MB PDF file when attached to an email.
I'm trying to keep the file size as small as I can - why is the extra size added to the PDF?
I'm on an IMac, using Outlook for Mac 2011 and Adobe Acrobat Pro X/Indesign CC to generate the PDFs. This isn't an isolated issue, it happens when I attached word documents as well and is extremely annoying!
Looking forward to hearing from anyone out there (desperately!)

Trouble transferring email to Outlook for Mac 2011

I purchased a new iMac and Office for Mac 2011. I have years of Outlook email history to transfer over, which the folks at the Apple Store said would work, no problem. That hasn't been the case. None of my .pst files from Outlook (2003, for PC) will transfer correctly. It seems that about half the email is missing. Have tried importing just small pst files with less than 100 emails, that won't work either. I've seen this problem discussed on multiple forums, but haven't seen a consensus developing as to the solution. I've tried creating a new identity in Office for Mac 2011, importing there, exporting to a .olm file, and reimporting to my main identity, and that didn't work either. Each solution has thousands of missing emails, but never the same ones. I can find no pattern, relating to whether there were attachments, older emails, new emails, etc.
I know this is being discussed in various forums, but I'd like to ask whether anyone has any new ideas? Or, it would be great to know if ANYONE has successfully been able to complete this kind of transfer to Outlook for Mac 2011, or whether it's happening to everyone who tries.
Thanks...

We've had problems importing Outlook 2003 and earlier >PST files into Outlook 2011 due I think to the ANSI format of the PST file.
One option is to get a 30 day trial of Outlook 2010 for your PC, create a new PST file in 2010 and import your 2003 PST into it. Then the PST will be Unicode and Mac Outlook 2011 should be able to import this PST.

Lost all my contacts on i4 , the same day I upgraded Outlook for Mac

i lost all of my i4 contacts today. it happened soon after tI upgraded my Outlook for Mac to 14.1.4

If you have your contacts in Outlook or Address Book you should be able to sync them back. If you only had them on your phone, and if you backed up your iPhone by syncing with iTunes before you went to the Apple store, you might be able to extract your contacts from this old backup using 3rd party software such as: http://www.iphonebackupextractor.com/.

Inadvertent MS Outlook for Mac Email Sends w/Magic Trackpad

When using my Magic Trackpad (connected to my MacBook Pro) with Microsoft Outlook for Mac, there's a gesture that automatically sends emails. Anyone know what that is?

I had the same issue. After talking to a Verizon FIOS technician from thier techinical support center, he said that no changes are needed for Outlook for Mac. That means the settings should be:
Incoming server: incoming.verizon.net
Incoming port: 110
Use SSL to connect: UNCHECKED
Outgoing server: outgoing.verizon.net
Outgoing port: 25
Use SSL to connect: UNCHECKED
Hope that helps others not waste an hour searching Verizon's website and trying to navigate their massive phone tree to actually speak to a technician.

Outlook for Mac. All emails go to trash.
