Still No Love for Outlook 2013 64bit

Even after the Link update, it appears the problems synching with Outlook 2013 64bit has not been resolved. Blackberry seem to have no love for individuals and small businesses. They harper on about security but seem intent on forcing us to use insecure cloud services.

That is correct, Win 8 and Office 2013 are not supported. To solve it you will need Windows 7 and Office 2007 or 2010.

ICloud with Outlook 2013 64bit and Windows 8.1

Hello,
I have a problem setting up the sync with iCloud and Outlook 2013 64bit on my new Windows 8.1 Thinkpad.
On my old Wind 7 PC and the same software (Office 2013 64bit) I get it worked, but not on the new one.
Installing is everything fine but the it says "Die Konfiguration kann nicht fortgesetzt werden, da Outlook ohne Standardprofil eingerichtet wurde..." Translatet it means something like "Setup can not continue becuase outlook isnt configured to have a defualt profile".
I've searched nearly the whole internet but without a solution. Can anyon

Have you checked to see if you have a default profile designated for Outlook? You can set it as described at the bottom of this article: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/turn-on-or-off-profile-prompt-HA1 02749211.aspx.

Does PSE 13 support Outlook 2013 64bit?

We are currently using PSE 12 with Win8.1 and Outlook 2013 64bit. Unfortunately PSE 12 does not support 64bit Outlook (can't send pictures via email). So now PSE 13 is available and we're wondering if it will solve our problem - work with Outlook 2013 64bit? Thanks for any info.

Hi,
Yes, With 64-bit version of PSE13, you can use Outlook 2013 64 bit with PSE13.

Install of the CRM for Outlook 2013 client fails

Hi,
I don't know if I'm in the right place to post, but here I am :
Some people in my organization have got an Office 365 license as well as a
Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online account. I want to install the client CRM For Outlook in order to allow them to manage the CRM from their Outlook client.
So I've downloaded the soft Microsoft Online Services Sign-In Assistant for IT Professionals RTW (as it's specified I should install it first), and downloaded the
CRM for Outlook 2013 client.
The steps followed
Test was made on a Dell laptop with Win 7 x64 Pro. :
Closed Outlook
Installed the first one (MS Online Services ... -IT Pro)
Tried to install the CRM with domain admin privileges. It failed
with the following warnings in the log file :
15:35:51|Warning| Failed to register notify interface. Error : 0x800704dd.
15:37:10|Warning| Failed to add the file C:\Users\ADMINI~1\AppData\Local\Temp\MSCRM_{B7297F92-E151-4897-870D-CDDF179FC6CE}\SSCERuntime_x64-1036.exe to the created job. Error : 0x800704dd.

15:37:12| Error| Installation of Microsoft Dynamics CRM for Outlook failed.
But it works on other environment
On the other hand, I've tested it on my computer (Win 7 x64 as well) and it succeeded. For both computers, I use Outlook 2010, and every system hadn't any trace of CRM for Outlook before.
Note : I only wrote the
Warning events, not the information tagged events. I searched for this problem across the Web; unfortunatly nobody seems to have reported this specific issue.
Note 2 : If you need any complementary information, I'll be glad to provide it.
So I am asking, where can be the matter ? Thanks in advance for any help !

Hi,
Try to perform a clean boot then install the CRM 2013 for Microsoft Office Outlook.
To perform a clean boot:
Log on to the computer by using an account that has administrator rights.
Click Start, type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box, and then press Enter to start the System Configuration utility.
Note If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, you should type the password or provide confirmation.
Collapse this imageExpand this image
On the General tab, click the Selective startup
option, and then click to clear the Load startup items check box. (The
Use Original Boot.ini check box is unavailable.)
Collapse this imageExpand this image
On the Services tab, click to select the Hide all Microsoft services check box, and then click
Disable all.
Collapse this imageExpand this image
Note This step lets Microsoft services continue to run. These services include Networking, Plug and Play, Event Logging, Error Reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you may permanently delete all restore points. Do not
do this if you want to use the System Restore utility together with existing restore points.
Click OK, and then click Restart.
This way we can eliminate the affect by background programs, install the software to see if the error still occurs.
If the issue persists in clean boot, please collect the Setup log files from this path:
SystemDrive:\Users\<User>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\MSCRM\Logs

Bussiness Contact Manager for outlook 2013 download hijacked by

HI
I am using Outlook 2013 downloaded as part of the Office 365 small business premium package. I am trying to download Business Contact Manager for Outlook 2013 (via
http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=36513).
The file downloads fine, and then when I go to run the file the download seems to get hijacked by Premium Installer (see screenshot).
The BCM file then will not download irrespective of whether I accept or decline the Premium Installer download.
The file seems to have something to do with Zoom Downloader.
I have tried to remove Zoom Downloader with various anti malware software (hitman pro, Malwarebytes, etc etc).
I have scanned my machine with the Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool and AVG and neither have picked up a threat.
Please help as I do not know whether this is a problem with my machine or the particular download.
Thanks

I did a complete uninstall of Driver Tuner, including making sure all traces were removed and after each attempt of downloading Business Contact Manager the download file still tries to install Driver Tuner and I cancel the installation.
Strange that you say you can download with no problem, but have you tried to install? Microsoft Tech support was having the same problem and was having trouble even finding a mirror site that BCM could be download from without experiencing the same problems
of the download trying to install a different program.
Have you tried downloading BCM recently? Perhaps you could share where a clean copy of BCM 2010 can be downloaded. And before you think there is no problem, try and install it. After the extraction is when another program tries to install.
Again, short of formatting my drive and reinstalling all programs, everything has been checked and my system is clean.
So you think Time Warner Cable DNS has been hijacked? If so, why is it only the program files from the Microsoft site that has this problem.
Please share the site where a clean copy of BCM 2010 can be downloaded.
I visited the link provided by the OP and downloaded the offered file
http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=36513
http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/confirmation.aspx?id=36513
http://download.microsoft.com/download/B/3/3/B333E334-EBEB-451E-AE76-ACD0C1AB1A6A/BCM2010-BCMSetup-x86-en-US.exe
It has downloaded cleanly for me, extracted, installed, and running fine, no sign of DriverTuner or anything else that has been mentioned here so far.
I did need to have Office2013 installed - this BCMsetup refuses to install with only Office2010 (despite the filename, not all that surprising).
So I'm guessing that your uninstallation of DriverTuner might have left some remnants behind, and that is probably hooking/intercepting the download and/or the BCMsetup you're doing, or there's some other crapware lingering.
And true, I agree it's unlikely that Time Warner Cable DNS has been hijacked (but at the time you posted, who knew if you were using an ISP DNS or some other local thing) - it's much more likely that your pc is infested with some further junk.
I'm in Australia, so I could be contacting a different Akamai CDN host than you are using, but since there aren't floods of people complaining about the same issue you're having, I'd guess it is a localised issue for you.

How do I leverage a custom theme for Outlook 2013?

Microsoft has a problem. They use the term "theme" in Office in 2 different ways: 1) the 3 background colors you can choose of the Office applications and 2) a collection of colors, fonts, and layout that can be customized and defined by the user
for the applications.
I know how to create a theme in PowerPoint and save it as a default for all new presentations. Allegedly you can you this across Office applications but this is where it breaks down (as far as my user experience goes).
I've created a theme in PowerPoint. It has my custom colors. I want to use that same collection in Outlook.
I can apply it on a email by email basis (Options menu for an email), but I want the default email (new or reply) to use that custom theme. I see my theme in the drop down menu under a heading of Custom, but there isn't a way to set it as default
(behavior differs from PowerPoint here).
So I look under the Outlook File menu, then Options and select Mail. You can change stationary, but the custom theme isn't an option there.
Then there is Styles under the Format Text menu when in a new email. There are color options and font options, but again, no way to leverage the work I did in creating the custom theme.
Searching on customizing themes for Outlook only gets me answers on the first use of the word theme, not the latter.
Is there no way to you the theme I created for Outlook 2013?

Its very simple - if you want a product that remains consistent and does not change its layout every few years, that is fully customizable, and will remain being supported by subsequent operating systems, then get an open source product running in an open
source OS. It seems that you can no longer rely on MS to provide consistency, stability, or support for their own products.
When will MS realise that customer familiarity with their products is their intellectual property, like branding, which you would never trash every five years. Imagine that MS wanted to change their name to a new company name, or their Outlook brand to Inlook
- it would never happen. So why is thee trade getup and arrangement changing so often and against what their customers want? Is it to justify thee new products? Maybe with cloud and 365, they will finally be happy and stop mucking about with what works (after
they change everything back to '95 /XP format?).

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.

Getting double notifications for Outlook 2013 on Windows 8.1 pro

Hi,
I have Outlook 2013 installed on windows 8.1 pro 64bit. I am having an issue with outlook notifications, I am getting 2 notifications for each mail that I receive.
I tried searching for the issue and found that I have desktop alerts enabled in Outlook settings and also windows 8 notifications for outlook in PC settings. Both these options generate their own notifications, so I get 2 notifications for each mail.
When I turned off outlook notifications in PC settings, both the notifications stopped. Then I disabled desktop alerts from outlook settings and started getting only one notification.
The issue is that both these notification look a bit different, outlook desktop alerts also show sender's photo which I prefer and I also have some outlook rules configured to show desktop alerts for only certain mails. So I want the desktop alerts to continue
and stop standard windows 8 notifications for outlook.
Does anyone know how to do that?
Thanks in advance.
SP

Hi,
As far as I know, Outlook email notifications are only shown in Window 8.1 if notifications are enabled in both Outlook and Windows.
I suspect the rules are causing this double notification issue.
You may export all the rules for backup, then start Outlook with the switch "/cleanrules":
Win key + R, type "outlook.exe /cleanrules" in the blank box, press Enter.
Check if the issue persists.
If the issue is gone after running Outlook with "/cleanrules", then let's import these rules back to check the result.
If the issue is back again, please check if any rules trigger the notification twice, use "stop processing more rules" as you need to stop the emails triggering more than one rule.

AVG add-in for Outlook 2013

I'm running Outlook 2013 under Windows 8.1. I am also running AVG Internet Security 2015 (purchased version, not the free anti-virus one). I have enabled the AVG add-in. The first time I started Outlook after installing AVG, I noticed that the AVG group
did not appear in the ribbon. So, I clicked on "File" in Outlook and then on "Manage Add-ins". It listed the AVG add-in as being disabled because it caused Outlook to start slowly. So I clicked on the "Always enable this add-in".
That brought back the AVG group in the ribbon. Until the next time I started Outlook. Once again, the AVG group was gone. So, I went back to "Manage Add-ins". It still shows up in the "Disabled Add-ins" list, but it's different than the
other disabled add-ins. It says "This add-in caused Outlook to start slowly. It wasn't disabled because it's in the always enabled list." All the other disabled add-ins have a button for "Always enable this add-in", but the one for AVG
has a button that says "Disable this add-in". Which implies that it is currently enabled. The interesting thing is that if I click on "Disable this add-in", close the dialog, then bring it up again, and click on "always enable",
then the AVG group re-appears. Until I restart Outlook. So, although Outlook claims that this add-in is in the "always enable" list, it's not honoring it. It's disabling it anyway.
Yes, I've already contacted AVG. After a mindless chat with lots of canned answers, I finally ended up where I knew I was headed: "Uninstall AVG and re-install it." Of course, I had already done that, to no avail. But it doesn't seem like an AVG problem
anyway, it seems like an Outlook problem. And, yes, I have done a Repair operation on Office 2013.

I have other add-ins, but nine of them are disabled and four others are marked as "inactive". The AVG add-in is the only one that is currently active, but only because I forced it to be. But it doesn't stay that way; if I try again in a little
while it will be gone. Outlook claims that the plug-in was causing Outlook to start slowly, but it then says that the plug-in took 0.156 seconds to load. I can wait for 0.156 seconds. I like the plug-in because it gives me the chance to mark a message a spam
that got by the anti-spam filter, plus other options for dealing with spam.
I can't believe that Microsoft recommends using anti-virus addins. Does Outlook do any virus scanning of incoming messages? I doubt it. "Very little benefit"? Are you kidding me?
And you say that after three times of slow loading Outlook wiill disable and add-in? Even I've told it "Always enable this add-in"? Outlook just ignores my request?
This is either lousy logic or a bug.

IMAP settings for Outlook 2013

I am getting an "unrecognized response" error when setting up a residential IMAP Account in Outlook 2013 connecting to my Vz email account.
the account specifics are using
incoming.yahoo.verizon.net on 995 SSL
outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net on 465 SSL
Outgoing requires authentication.
Anyone who can has the right answer to set up an IMAP Account in Outlook 2013? I think I have the right settings, but I cam getting this crazy error. And of course, Vz help was not helpful as they do not support IMAP. They only support easy items that are cheap to support not valuable and functional things clients want/need.
Carey

Still more POP email accounts in the world then IMAP.
I was never a fan of leaving my message on a server, and like being able to access my email when I don't have internet access.
Imap is of course popular for those with smart phones/devices and not enough memory to store all their messages/attachments on them.

Out of office/free busy not working for Outlook 2013

Hi! I have a user on our network that cannot use Out of office or see free/busy information in meeting requests. We have hundreds of working 2010 clients but this one is 2013 and NOT a member of our domain. They are connected to exchange
and can do anything except the above. When I do a test of email autoconfiguration it just fails. DNS resolution is working fine but it can't connect to the server for these two functions only. Any articles I can find assume the user is remote
and outside the network but he is connected internally. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hi,
Please switch to Outlook 2010 client and login OWA to check this issue.
The Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 Availability service makes free/busy information available to Outlook client. Then Outlook uses the Exchange Server 2010 Autodiscover service to obtain the URL of the Availability service. As you
mentioned, it failed to do a test of email autoconfiguration. So I suggest the following methods for troubleshooting
Please switch to Outlook 2010 client and login OWA to check this issue.
Have you configured
Autodiscover Service for Internet Access?
Use Test-OutlookWebServices cmdlet to
verify that the Autodiscover service settings for Outlook clients are configured correctly.

Online Archives for Outlook 2013 do not appear in Outlook 2013 running on Terminal Server

Hello,
We are currently attempting to get our users away from using PST files and instead use the Personal Online Archive feature but have come across a problem
Environment
Windows 2008 R2 Remote Desktop Services (Terminal Server)
Office 2013
Citrix 6.5 XenApp
So on the Exchange side I went through the steps of setting up my PST use as a guinea pig for testing. I was able to setup the Archive database, enable archiving on my mailbox, and import my PST into the Archive database.
I then opened Outlook 2013 on my stand-alone PC and there was my Online Archive. Great!
I then double checked and also saw it on the OWA site on the Exchange server. Super!
I finally logged into our RDS (Terminal) server and opened Outlook 2013 there. But the Online archive was not there. Hmmm..
I did some researching and this article about Outlook 2010 suggested it was a permission issue:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/1e8d5d4b-e26b-4be6-b646-eb6e796c6295/exchange-2010-mail-archive-missing-in-outlook-2010-shows-in-owa?forum=outlook
So I ran through those steps in Powershell but no change.
I also don't think it's a licensing issue because the license I have on my stand-alone PC is the same volume license keys (MAK) as on my Terminal Server.
Soo... I'm a bit stuck and was hoping for some help. I can't proceed with migrating other PST files to the online archive until I get this resolved.
Thanks

Hi,
In theory,
Outlook reads the
msExchDelegateLink attribute of the user in AD to display the additional mailbox (Online Archive folder).
Since the standalone client can display the archive mailbox properly, it seems this attribute is available in AD. I suspect the issue locates on the way that the terminal
clients access the server. I suggest we check whether the client has properly permission to connect to AD when accessing remotely.

"Sent Items" folder can not be synced up in time for Outlook 2013 cache mode

Hi,
I found a strange problem in Outlook 2013 cache mode. Hope anyone can help me find out if it is the new design of outlook 2013 or outlook 2013 issue.
I am using Exchange 2013 and Outlook 2013 client. I created two outlook profiles in two machines separately with a same exchange user, the difference for the two profiles is one is in cache mode, and the other is in uncache mode.
I launched outlook using the profiles in the two machines, go to "Sent Items" folder, I assume there are some messages in this folder in your mailbox, do below steps:
1. modify one of the messages in the "Sent Items" folder from the profile in cache mode, in this case, the changes to the message will be synced up to the profile which is in uncache mode immediately.
2. modify another messages in the "Sent Items" folder from the profile in uncache mode, in this case, the changes will never be synced up to the profile in cache mode.
In the second action above, even if I clicked "Send/Receive" button, and waited for whole night, the changes was not synched up to the cached mode side. The way I can get the latest changes to the "Sent Items" folder is "clear
offline items" and click "Update folder" or I need to remove and create the profile again.
All in all, the changes to the items in "Sent Items" folder of Outlook 2013 which was did from cache mode will be synched up to exchange server side immediately, but the changes which was did from exchange server side will
never be synched up to the cache mode side unless the end-user clear the offline items and update folder or create a new profile again.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance!
Best Regards, Emily

The first behavior is by design even in the previous version of Office.
"1. modify one of the messages in the "Sent Items" folder from the profile in cache mode, in this case, the changes to the message will be synced up to the profile which is in uncache mode immediately."
Uploading local changes ---- By default, when you make a change locally, that change is synced to the server after 15 seconds. When you make another change within those 15 seconds, then the timer is reset again. As now you
could in theory hold off synchronization indefinitely, there is the maximum timer. This timer is started after the first change that you made and when it reaches 60 seconds, then a synchronization will occur to upload all the changes that you have made thus
far, no matter how many seconds are left on the upload timer.
However, in second section, this should be a downloading server changes
behavior ---- When a server side mailbox change occurs, Outlook is notified by the Exchange server of this change. By default, Outlook will then wait 30 seconds before synchronizing these changes. If there are any other changes occurring
at the server level within these 30 seconds, then these changes are downloaded at the same time as well.
At this time, please directly modify the message in sender items folders through Web-based access and then wait over 30 seconds to check if the items changes from cache mode profile. Please also test if we can reproduce that in other folder.
Let me know the result. Thanks.

Exclaimer manager signature does not update sent items for outlook 2013 clients when using cached mode

Hi
I have Signature Manager Exchange Edition 2.0.3.0 installed on the hub servers.
I have enabled Sent Items update.
some clients are not getting signature update in the sent items of outlook while using cached mode.
from OWA, and MS Outlook when connected online, the signature is updated in the sent items.
I have two CAS servers and two mailbox servers. all with Exchange 2013 SP1
I tested each CAS server for the URLs of Autodiscover and EWS, with no errors or warnings.
I also test Autodiscover through
https://testconnectivity.microsoft.com . I go successful result.
Outlook clients are updated to the latest version 15.0.4701.1000
for outlook clients; I deleted outlook profile, deleted outlook folder in the user profile, re-created the outlook profile, with no luck.
from Exclaimer event logs on the Hub servers. the sent items update is successfully updating clients. below is the screenshot of an event for one email message which is successfully updated from exclaimer but it did not update on the client outlook while
using cached mode.
Since the issue is with multiple users, I am searching for a centralized solution
Mashhour Faraj

Dear Mashhour
Here you go
Employees can see their email signatures and disclaimers
With Exchange 2013, a Microsoft Outlook user can’t see any added email signatures or disclaimers as they are added to an email when it passes through the Exchange server.
Signature Manager Exchange Edition lets email users see their email signature and corporate disclaimer within the Sent Items of their inbox, giving them visual confirmation of the processed email
Source -
http://blog.exclaimer.com/exclaimer-signature-manager-vs-microsoft-exchange-2013/
Updating to the latest version of signature manager exchange edition will help you to resolve this problem for sure
Or you need to contact them to find a solution on this .
I'm pretty much sure that this problem is related with some version mismatch on their s/w on exchange 2013 which is causing this issue.
