Outlook for mac using exchange displaying emails in chinese and dated 10 years ahead

ok so i have a new to me but used macbook pro and i have set up my 4 email accounts on it. I have 2 set up using imap and 2 using exchange. The impa are working perfectly. one of the exchange is also working perfectly also but the second one is not. It is setting up fine but when it is retrieving new emils it is bringing them in to my inbox in chinese and also they are dated in 2018, each new email that arrives it addes on a extra year to the date with a ramdom day and month.
Any ideas why this would be happening?

This may indicate an encoding mismatch, utf-8 being read as if it were utf-16, probably a glitch with exchange for that account.

  • Issue with Outlook for Mac - MS exchange account setup

    Hello, after trying to connect the hotmail exchange account to Outlook for Mac 2011 I still can't see account in the left panel. The account is still marked orange instead of green. I can't figure out what is wrong with the settings. Please help!

    Hi Vasko,
    MAC 2011 is different from Outlook. Sorry for the lack of knowledge on MAC.
    I suggest re-creating a new thread on the MAC forum so that we can get more professional suggestions.

  • In Outlook for Mac, when writing an email, underscores make italics.

    When writing an email, when I underscore on either side of two w's, the underscores disappear and the w's are italicized.  Frustrating, because my new business email has two underscores on either side of two w's, so I can't enter my address in the body of the email.  Any suggestions?

    You can turn it off under Outlook's preferences. Click on AutoCorrect then AutoFormat. Uncheck the box that says "Bold" and _italic_ with real formatting"

  • Cannot Import Email and Folders from Outlook for Mac 2011

    After downloading Lion, I could not import emails and folder structure from Outlook for Mac 2011.

    You're in luck, Imap and Exchange accounts store their data on the server.
    Leave Outlook alone, just add the accounts to Mail and let them synchronize, no import required. You can leave them in Outlook or remove them as you please once everything in Mail is done.

    Hello, 
    need to convert mails from apple mail to outlook for mac 2011. have gone through Imap procedure and am tired of transferring mails manually coz there are thousands of'em. can anyone suggest any simple solution to this problem?
    thanks.

    Create a IMAP account (GMAIL icloud etc.)
    add account to Apple mail and Outlook 2011
    Drag emails into a folder on the imap server and then go back to Outlook 2011 and drag the emails from the imap into your email. and your done all your emails
    are there.
    There are third party tools available now-a-days for this kind of problems and they are pretty useful. You have just to select the files from the apple mail
    that you want to convert and your mails are transferred within no time.

  • ICloud doesn't sync with Outlook for Mac 2011

    Any help would be appreciated...
    I've got a MacBook Pro (OS X 10.7.3), iPhone 4 and iPad 2.
    I use Office/Outlook for Mac 2011. The email is fine, but I can't figure out how to get contacts and calendar to sync with iPhone & iPad using iCloud...
    Is there a way to use iCloud to sync contacts and calendars across all devices?
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    There is no way to use iCloud Dav services (contacts and calendars) in Outlook 2011 as Outlook does not support Dav services.
    Use a client that supports Dav if you want to use iCloud.

  • If I switch to iCloud, Outlook for Mac is not synchronizing with iCal and iCloud anymore. Is there a solution for this problem?

    I normally use Outlook for Mac as the standard email and calendar programm. When I use the USB cable fro synchronising contacts and calendars with my iPhone 4s ther is not problem at all. iCal, Mail and Oulook for Mac are synchronising perfectly.
    When I switch to iCloud, Oulook is completely empty and Calendar and Contacts are not synchronised anymore.
    Is this a known problem, and is there a solution for it?

    I have the same keyboard and do not have battery issues.
    It may have something to do with using rechargeable batteries.
    You can also try removing the keyboard then re-pairing it. Maybe a bad bluetooth connection is draining the battery.
    System Preferences > Bluetooth > right-click (control-click) on the keyboard > Remove > Remove
    Wait for it to show in the bluetooth list then Pair > enter the number sequence & return as displyed on the screen.

  • Can I import contacts to outlook for mac with iphone?

    Can I import contacts to Outlook for Mac using my iphone?  I turned on sync in outlook and in itunes, but still not syncing.

    You need a vCard format.  I believe one option is to import your csv file to Google contacts, then export them as a vCard that can be imported to iCloud.

  • Outlook for Mac and conflict with Mail

    Hi
    I have a mac Pro, have upgraded to Lion and have Outlook for Mac as my default email system. When I choose a file in Finder and go to email it the MAIL system kicks in and takes over. As I have set Outlook as the default nothing happens. Can anyone help please?

    The "New Email with Attachment" option in the services menu is an applescript that is configured to point to Apple Mail and does not allow you to change it to Outlook.
    As was suggested in other discussion links, you should try dragging the file directly onto the Outlook icon on your dock and it should create a new message with attachment for you:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3046634?start=0&tstart=0
    The only hack that I could find for you was an article showing how to create a service to attach files to outlook.  See this article: http://www.officeformachelp.com/2010/11/create-a-service-to-attach-files-to-a-ne w-outlook-for-mac-mail-message/
    Please realise this is a hack and not something that is supposed to work out of the box.

  • 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 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.

    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
