Problems with Outlook for Mac 2011 after installing Lion

I've installed Lion yesterday and found that all my mail folders, contacts and claendar entries have dissapeared from Outlook for Mac 2011. I have also found out that I have lost iSync as well. I need to get all my data from Outlook 2011. How do I do this?

Hi Julian,
Thanks for the reply mate, I really appreciate you taking the time out to post a reply.
I didn't do a back-up of my data prior to installing Lion. I hadn't thought that I would have this issue with installing a Mac product onto a Mac lap top. So unless there is another option, I can't take your advice.
Thanks anyway,
Scott

What is the best CRM to integrate with Outlook for Mac 2011?

Hello,
I am rather new to Mac and need to employ a CRM for a new small business. After reading reviews we deciding on using Salesforce.com, since it is web-based and seemed to be the best option for mac users. However, now that we have subscribed to it we have discovered that it does not integrate with Outlook for Mac 2011. Even after inquring on third party apps and plug-ins, it does not appear there is a solution. MailDrop only works with Entourage and MacMail, which we don't use, or want to use. iHance and Riva seemed liked possible choices, however they do not support Salesforce Group Edition, which is what we have. Changing our subscription from Group to Professional edition is a huge jump in price per month. Plus we would most likely need to pay for a monthly app/plug-in fee.
Bottom line, we want to keep using Outlook for Mac 2011 and use an effective CRM. Any constructive advice is welcomed:
Any third party apps, plugins, work arounds that I may not have mentioned?
Any other suggestions for CRMs that integrate well with Outlook for Mac 2011?
At it's simpliest level, is there a way to export contacts from Outlook for Mac 2011 into our Salesforce account? If so, I want to make sure to avoid loading duplicates in the future.
Thank you.

Well, "feeling your pain" is almost cliche at this point. I imagine every MAC deployed business out there is not completely happy with the SalesForce answer. As a user, the perfect world is to keep using Outlook, have it be a powerful CRM - and not have to leave the MAC OS environment.....
I can tell you the direction I am going in, but I don't have any results as yet. I found a link from a MAC developer that has figured a stable way to do this. With the use of "Parallels" and "MS Dynamics CRM", there may be light at the end of the tunnel. Essentially, you can now have a powerful CRM - without having to leave MS Outlook - and still use your MAC. As I said, I will have to try it myself to comment further, but at least it is one realistic answer to keeping your MAC in the business world.

Are there any known conflicts between Mountain Lion and Microsoft Outlook for Mac? After installing, I can't send or receive eMails

Are there any known conflicts between Mountain Lion (10.8.3) and Microsoft Outlook for Mac? After installing, I can't send or receive eMails. Using a Macbook Pro.

Is this a recent problem or has it been going on for some time. If you just updated to ML, you might want to confirm that you've update to the latest MS Office / Outlook patches.

How do i sync my iphone with outlook for mac 2011 calendar?

how do i sync my iphone with outlook for mac 2011 calendar?

Here are some instructions from Microsoft:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2452489
Alternatively, depending on where the data in Outlook is coming from, you could set up your phone to sync to the same account that Outlook is syncing with. For example, my Outlook 2011 and my iPhone both sync to my work Exchange account, so I have that same calendar in both places.

ICloud working with Outlook for Mac 2011

For work purposes I use a Mac Air, with Outlook for Mac 2011, and my company's email runs on an Outlook server. I'm not going to have any choice about using Outlook.
I've set up my home calendar (on iMac) and want to use iCloud to synchronise between my various devices.
My iPhone can show both my work calendar and my home calendar. But on the Mac where i am running Outlook for Mac i dont seem to be able to add the second calendar.
Looking at older discussions (2011, 2012) it seems there were ways to use iCloud and synchronise with Outlook on a Windows machine, but not on a Mac using Outlook. Is that still the case or is there a way I can now do this?

Microsoft have still not updated Outlook for Mac to support the cross-platform, industry-standard calendar and contact protocols iCloud (and many other similar services) use.
You won't be able to use iCloud with Outlook for Mac, except for email.
Read: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2648915
There's nothing to stop you using the Apple calendar and contact apps for your personal iCloud data, and Outlook for your work data though. Or you could just setup your work accounts in the Apple apps, which do support Microsoft Exchange.

Having many problem with wifi....after installing lion......

Having many problem with wifi....after installing lion......it connect with wifi but not with Internet and at the same time iPad 2, iPhone 4 works smooth......help......I have MacBook air without thunderbolt and mac mini

I had the same problem last night. Boot into OSX and reboot the router - fine. Boot into Windows and wrong. Here were my fixes:
Firstly, I kept all the settings on my router solid. Just leave them as they are. Boot into OSX and check the Network settings and make a note of your IP address and the router's IP address.
Second, boot into Windows, then open up your wireless connection settings and navigate through to the properties where you can set the IP address.
Third: Set the IP address to your routers IP address changing the last set of digits to a value between 5 and 255 (I have 8 devices so I set the last two digits to 10.) This will keep the IP static.
Tab through the Mask settings to default those.
Then set the default gateway to your router's IP address.
Check that the Network Adapter's setting has IPv6 disabled (uncheck the box)
Finally: Set the primary DNS server to 8.8.8.8 then the secondary to 8.8.4.4 and then reboot the router.
That's what got my connection running.

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.

How do i sync my icloud contacts with outlook for Mac 2011

I need to sync my icloud contacts with Outlook for Mac. Help!

You can't, as Microsoft chose not to include the CardDAV protocol necessary to do so (even though they do in Microsoft Office). See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2648915. To sync your iCloud contacts with your Mac you'll need to use the OS X Contacts (Address Book) app.

Problems with Office for Mac 2011 installation

I'm trying to install Office for Mac 2011 on my new (bought yesterday) Macbook Air
I entered my pin for the Office into the site and got my download link
I started to download it and it said it would take over 4 hours and when the download got to halfway (of 1GB) the installation stopped and the message given was 'You do not have permission to access the requested file' and this came up every time I tried to restart it
I decided to re-install the program but was met with the same issue..
Can anybody offer any advice or explanation for this it would be greatly appreciated!

You may need to rebuild permissions on your user account. To do this,boot to your Recovery partition (holding down the Command and R keys while booting) and open Terminal from the Utilities menu. In Terminal, type: ‘resetpassword’ (without the ’s), hit return, and select the admin user. You are not going to reset your password. Click on the icon for your Macs hard drive at the top. From the drop down below it select the user account which is having issues. At the bottom of the window, you'll see an area labeled Restore Home Directory Permissions and ACLs. Click the reset button there. The process takes a few minutes. When complete, restart.

Send/Receive problem in Outlook for Mac 2011

Ever since I installed Lion and iCloud my Outlook for Mac application will not receive mail unless I manully click the Send/Receive button. I have checked the schedule button under Preferences.
Prior to the installation of Lion and iCloud I received mail automatically.

Hi. I had same problem. All you need is to change outgoing and incoming servrrs. I had smtp.me.com and mail.me.com instead of smtp.mail.me.com and imap.mail.me.com, as described here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864
It was working up to yesterday. You may need just change servers names in account options in outlook. Be ready to full message database rebuilding

Problems with Office for Mac 2011 Outlook

So I've BYOD with my work, but having difficulty in accessing my Outlook email on the work's server. I keep getting the following pop-up for the mail stating that Outlook has redirected to the server (name of server here) to get new settings for your account (name of email account here). Do you want to allow this server to configure your settings? I havce the option of to Deny or Allow, both of which have been tried. The pop-up still pops-up no matter.
What our PC-oriented tech department has discovered is that it is being routed to an incorrect address. They have no idea where that address resides and we need to figure out how to insert the correct address into the correct place within the software.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks.

there seems to be something wrong with the Office for Mac software getting things right on that platform on that machine
Then that would be a question for Microsoft' and their forums. It's up to Microsoft to maintain compatibility with the OS, not vice versa.
when Lion came out, there were others who had some issues wtih Outlook
Lots of sofware has issues if not updated to be compatible with new operating systems.
I was hoping someone who got things right might see this and response.
This has nothing to do with Outlook..it's running as it should. The problem is that the autodiscover feature on your company's exchange server is not configured properly and is telling Outlook to point to that incorrect address. It's up to them to fix the autodiscover settings on the exchange server.

How to link iCal with Outlook for Mac 2011?

Hello Apple people.
Just got my MacBook Pro (Late 2011) and am trying to enable Outlook to link with iCal so I can get meeting alerts on my iPhone 4. I prefer using Outlook for email and calendar usage. I've linked it with iCal, but can't get information to transfer between the two. Any thoughts?

Greetings,
Before doing any troubleshooting I would recommend backing up your data (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1553). Calendars and contacts tend to be important to people and are complex in nature which increases the chances of mishaps.
Make sure you have installed all software updates from Apple by going to Apple > Software Update.
Make sure you have installed all software updates for your Microsoft software (Open Outlook and then go to Help > Check for Updates).
Restart your computer (Apple Menu > Restart).
The first thing I would suggest is following all steps in this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2452489.
Once this is complete you should see the calendars you have added to Outlook when you click the "Calendars" button in iCal under the "On My Mac" section.
If the calendars do not show up reset Sync Services: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627.
Hope that helps.
