Outlook 2010 and OWA (Hosted on Exchange Server 2010 Standard) only show 1 weeks worth of email

Checked to see if any Filters were applied, reset to default, same result.
Checked to see if there were any rules, there were none.
Checked to see if there were any "Quick Steps", there were none.
Rebuilt the user profile in Outlook, same results.
OWA shows the same thing so I am thinking it might be a setting/problem with Exchange. Outlook and OWA are in perfect sync, they just don't show email older than a week.

Hi,
Based on the description, you could only see those messages whose age was less than one week in Outlook and OWA.
First, I recommend you check if there is any retention policy applied to this user mailbox.
Besides, please use the get-mailboxstatistics command to get the number of items present in the mailbox, and then compare it with what you can see in Outlook.
Best regards,

TS3899 My email only shows last weeks worth of mail! I want it to show all of my mail previous

My email only shows last weeks worth of mail! I want it to show all of my mail previous

There are a couple of things that could be deleting mail messages.
In Mac's Mail app click on the Mail > Preferences menu item. Now select your offending mail account from the Accounts list. Now click on Advanced. There is a setting to "remove copy from server after retrieving message." The Mail app will delete messages from your email service based on this setting. This will not delete messages from your computer.
If you are losing messages from your computer then click on Rules in Mail's Preferences, then check each "rule" to see if there is one that could be deleting messages. Click on the rule and then on Edit to see the rules criteria
Example of a rule that would delete messages:
If neither of these is your problem I suggest you check with Yahoo to see if there is a setting on their service that could be deleting messages.

How can I get my Microsoft Outlook for MAC to work with ATT/Yahoo's email system? ATT/Yahoo is telling me they're not compatible with the MAC version...

I have tried to make my Microsoft Office for MAC's OUTLOOK program work as the default email system. But ATT/Yahoo says its service is not compatible with the MAC version of Microsoft Outlook... Has anyone been able to make it work? I can't change my ISP right now.

You might try asking your OutLook for Mac question in the Office for Mac forums. http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac?auth=1

PSE 6 for Mac: Only have one shape in the Cookie Cutter tool

I just installed PSE 6 for Mac and am getting familiar with it. When I tried to use the Cookie Cutter tool, I have no choices (no black arrow next to the star in the toolbar) and it always is a 'heart' (cute, but was hoping for more choices). Any suggestions on why this is, and how to repair? Thanks in advance for any help...

Actually, I found the answer...disregard my question. Newbie error. Thanks for understanding!

Bought Outlook for Mac... now Finder searches includes Emails

Hi there -
I have a macbook pro. I often use the Finder's search feature to locate a word document or something on my machine.
BUT since I have installed outlook for a mac it includes searching my emails which is ridiculous. I get a ton of emails for work and even though sometimes they do really point me to an email related to what I am searching this is NOT HELPFUL.
I want to search my computer like word, excel, images, pdfs, etc. Anything but NOT outlook emails. How can I prevent that?
It's so annoying and makes it harder to find what I am looking for.
Much thanks!
xoxo

Hi Nicole FS,
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Find and Spotlight are two excellent features in the operating system. Each function works a bit differently from the other.
Let's deal with SpotLight which uses indexing. I takes a bit of time to set up; but, it does that in the background. It will slow your work down as it indexes your files in the beginning, only. Here's how to begin to get the MOST out of SpotLight.
Open System Preferences > Spotlight > Search Results.
The first thing you can do is deselect the mail messages in the list of things to search. While you're there deciding what you want to display for results, you can also click-drag the items into a preferred search order.
That alone should fix your concern; but, there's more.
Click System Preferences > Spotlight > Privacy.
The second thing to you can do is decide where Spotlight will work and what volumes you wish to have indexed for FAST and complete searches.
Note that Spotlight will find instances of type inside PDFs and even in some artwork! That's nothing short of astonishing, IMHO.
Here's how to AMAZE YOURSELF:
This Spotlight preferences window shows a list of locations to "Prevent Spotlight from searching these locations:"
First, Add ALL the items that you WANT to index (using the + button under the window or drag a folder or disk into the list).
2. Close the System Preferences window.
3. Reopen System Preferences > Spotlight > Privacy.
4. REMOVE all the items you just added.
5. Close the System Preferences window to reset the Spotlight database.
Spotlight will then begin to index the folders and volumes you just removed from the Privacy List.
(Leave the items in the list that you do NOT want to search.)
You'll see a small black throbbing dot inside the Spotlight logo as it indexes. It may take some time.
You may hear the fans go on to keep the heat down from the increased CPU activity.
When the indexing is finished, you'll be able to find practically anything FASTER than you can type. (I'm a two-hand touch typist and it's faster than I am.)
I hope this helps. I wasn't crazy about Spotlight until I learned how to use it. Now, I'd be lost without it.

Certificates now showing up in Outlook for mac or Mail app.

I want to use outlook for mac to get my e-mails from work. I installed the certificate that i need to connect to the exchange server. I can see it in my keychain. But when i add my account details into Outlook or Mail, and it gives me the popup that i need a certificate, i can't select the certificate that i installed. I only get the preinstalled ones from OSX but not the one i installed myself that i need to connect to the server.
In outlook for mac it only shows me the certificates from the category "my certificates" in the keychain, while the certificate i installed from work is being put into the "certificates" category.
Is there any way how i can Outlook or Mail to recognize the certificate that i installed ?

I have taken some screenshots to clarify the problem a bit more :

My avast! antivirus software is identifying two Trojan viruses on my MacBookPro (Max OSX 10.7.5) that seem to be related to my Outlook for Mac. An example of one of the file names is: /.MobileBackups/Computer/2014-06-22-151618/Volume/Us

My avast! antivirus software is identifying two Trojan viruses on my MacBookPro (Max OSX 10.7.5) that seem to be related to my Outlook for Mac.
An example of one of the file names is: /.MobileBackups/Computer/2014-06-22-151618/Volume/Users/stevekreitner/Documents /Microsoft User Data/Office 2011 Identities/Main Identity [Backed up 2014-06-22 12.48.35]/Data Records/Message Attachments/0T/0B/0M/9K/x26_9605.olk14MsgAttach
Any suggestions on how to locate and remove these virsues?

Actually, you can delete the entire Main Identity folder for Outlook that has a backup date in brackets [xxx] as part of its name since that was created when you used the Microsoft Database Utility to rebuild your email database. The folder that is only named Main Identity is the one in use. The other is now nothing.
That should be true but sometimes users are in the wrong Identity. Outlook 'forgets' what is supposed to be the main default Identity and opens in the wrong one. You need to check the database file in the Identity to see date modified to know for sure.
Typically, after rebuilding you delete the rebuild after a bit when you are satisfied with the rebuild. There should only be one Identity in the Identities folder. However, most users don't understand what to do with the copy that is made and never deletes anything.

I am running Microsoft Outlook for Mac 2011 and all my tasks on my imac are gone. I can create new ones but cannot find my old ones. I have tried to rebuild the database but I get an error message with [-18000] code

Is there any way to sync Outlook for Mac with iPhone? I have tried everything but not successful. Apple says it is not possible to sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5. Any help will be much appreciated.

Is there any way to Sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5? Apple support says that only iTune can only sync contacts from "Contact" which is the default contact of Mac. If one is running Outllok on a Mac machine then it is not possible to sync the contacts with iPhone. It is strange that Apple distributors are promoting and offering machines with promise that Windows users can now run MS Office on Mac machines without any problem. While this is true, it is so strange that one cannot sync the contacts from MacBook Pro to iPhone5. If someone has found a way to sync contacts from Outlook to iPhone 5 please help as it is very frustrating to not be able to sync the contacts. Thanks, Amit.

Firefox for Mac preferences shows .qif file format for quicken as "quicktime image format"-wrong application and won't let me select anything else

Post to Firefox forum; Oct.2011
Re: Quicken 2007; Mac OS 10.5
Problem: can’t import or download Qif format files into quicken from bofa or Chase. Mac can’t recognize; how do I set preferences in Firefox (or Safari).
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/new?product=desktop&category=d1&search=Firefox+for+Mac+preferences+shows+.qif+file+format+for+quicken+as+%22quicktime+image+format%22-wrong+application+and+won%27t+let+me+select+anything+else&showform=1
Hello,
I previously used Firefox on my old Mac G4 with OS 10.3.9; the above issue existed with that system and Firefox 2.00.2 (or similar). I then "tried" to move to a G5 Mac with OS 10.5, hoping that an updated Mac Operating system and updating Firefox would solve that problem.
I'm now working on my son's MacBook Pro, OS 10.5.8, 2.4 ghz Intel Core 2 Duo; 2gb Memory; 2 gb 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM.
I still have a problem in Firefox Preferences trying to download .qif files. BofA Mortgage accounts only allow downloading of .qif files. My .qfx download works fine, but the error message is as follows:
The error message is that this is a corrupted file or one that Preview doesn't recognize.
and it is still a problem when trying to download Quicken .qif format files for our B of A mortgage.
The preferences for Firefox under File Helpers won't let me name the extension I want; instead, it CONFUSES .qif (Quicken Interchange Format) with .qtif (Quicktime Image Format) for Mac.
Therefore, when I download .qif files and try to import them to Quicken, I get a message that this is a corrupted file:
thanks for any help.

Well, in the end, I just gave up and deleted the photos, in the hope that it was something to do with them. Took some more photos and they seem to have imported without any problems at all.
Given that the same irksome photos loaded on the wife's macbook without so much as a murmur, how weird is that?
Still- all's well that ends well. Thanks for the suggestions- much appreciated.
