"Sync Pending for this folder" in Outlook
Hi, I am using Msft Outlook 14.3.9 connecting to my Exchange. Recently all my emails were not syncing real time to my Macbook. "Sync Pending for this folder" kept appearing. Please advise how to ensure emails are sync efficiently.
It works well in my iPhone 5 and Ipad mini. But somehow the emails in my Macbook are delayed.
The Microsoft knowledge base article that @randers4 gave you, in there is how to setup Outlook for Mac 2011. Is that what you have tried/done? Replace "icloud" for the "mac" or "me" that is indicated in the KB. If you've done all that and it still doesn't work, I'm afraid that, as @randers4 indicates, use the Mac Mail app. I've tried Outlook 2004 for Mac and Outlook 2011 for Mac and every Outlook version from 2003 - 2013 on Windows, it simply doesn't work as well as the OS X Mail application. I have missing folders and missing mails.
Any particular reason to stick to Outlook? If you have POP, Exchange, or IMAP accounts as well as iCloud, the OS X Mail app works with them as well. I'm on OS X Mavericks (10.9.4) on MacBook Air (13-inch Mid 2013) and have Office 365, but I've deleted Outlook. I know this doesn't help, but try to use the Mail app for other accounts as well.

I am trying to open iTunes on my mac. But a box pops up saying "The folder iTunes is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissions for this folder". Anyone know what that means? I've had my computer 2 years and its never had a problem opening it
I've already right-clicked on the application, clicked "get info", and changed it so all people listed in the "Sharing & Permissions" section have the "read & write" privilage.
The error message is referring to your iTunes library, not your iTunes application.
You need to check and fix the permissions of the iTunes folder in your iTunes library. This is by default located in your "Music" folder.
Select the folder Music > iTunes in the Finder, right click on it or Ctrl Click and click "Get Info". At the bottom of the contextual window thatwill pop up, disclose the Sharing and Permissions brick, change your status from Read only to Read & Write. You may need to click the padlock icon to make changes. -

I got a problem on running the iTune 64bit on Windows 7, error message says " the folder "itunes" is on a locked disk or your do not have write permission for this folder. Any one ran into this problem ?
It worked before.Open Disk Utility via Spotlight or in the Applications folder stored within the Utilities folder. Close all applications and 3rd party software and choose "Repair Disk Permissions." Reboot the computer when finished, and test to see if the issue is resolved.

I have a Windows 7 Professional, 64 bits on my computer and have recently installed iTunes 11.1.3.8. but i started having this msg :"The folder iTunes is on a locked disk or you do not have write permission for this folder" issues: how can i solve it?
Right-click on your main iTunes folder and click Properties, then go to the Security tab and click Advanced. If necessary grant your account and SYSTEM full control of this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to replace permissions on child objects which will repair permissions throughout the library. This is the XP dialog but Windows 7 shouldn't be too different.
If it won't let you change the permissions use the Owner tab to take ownneship from an account with administror privileges.

How to change the permission of a folder of a website hosted on Microsoft Azure. I would like to know how to enable read write permission for this folder
Regards,
JohnHi,
Please try to setting Folder Permissions on Web Publish, and then deploy it with Web Deploy, as far as I know, if we do that, Web Deploy will use the SetAcl operation to change permissions. Please have a look at the article below.

Have tried to install Itunes on laptop running 32 bit Windows 7 - it says it installed successfully but then when I click to open I get the message "the folder is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissions for this folder."
You will have to descripe where the drive is and much more.
Then go and look at the drive and folder and who has group ownership policy and more.
It would have to be a guess, plus "20 questions" but why post here? when there are Snow Leopard, iMac, and of course, iTunes, Community forums.

I have unintalled and reinstalled several times, just suddenly stopped working. I have windows 7, have for awhile. I get the following message: The Folder I tunes is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissions for this folder"
I had an existing account that i am no longer able to access.
I got one email suggesting right click and run as program administrator, tried it and did not work. Also went into permissions folder and ensured was listed as program administrator.
Help and Thanks in advance.Hi Chris,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of your issue. When you say a "different server", if you mean that you recently changed the location where iTunes was storing its files (local or otherwise), you may find the following article helpful:
