Using Safari with Outlook web access

I use MS Outlook Web Access to access my work email (OWA). When I first bought the iPhone and tried to access OWA, Safari would "hang" and never connect.
My IT department found the solution. They implemented OWA with SSL. Once they activiated that feature on the Exchange server, it worked fine.
You will access your OWA account through Safari with an https://mail.yourmail.com/exchange. It will prompt you for your ID and password. You are good to go!

Try turning off the pop up blocker. The reply in OWA opens a new window.

  • Using Mail with Outlook Web Access?

    I've heard there is a lot of trouble with this but wondering if someone can help me out, I would really love to get my work email this way, I DESPISE Outlook Web Access, I entered the proper POP server address and it took, but kept ignoring my password, any help?
    Thanks!

    Just to confirm, since I don't see it mentioned, can you confirm that you're not on Exchange 2003.

  • Help! Can I sync my Palm Desktop with Outlook Web Access?? I'm using a T5 -- NOT wireless, but cable-synced

    I have spent the last 3+ weeks trying to get my Palm Desktop information to sync with an Outlook Web Access account.
    I have been able to sync my Palm Desktop info with Outlook 2007, and I have been able to acess an Outlook Web Access account through a microsoft exchange server.
    BUT, when I talk with tech support.... I get several conflicting answers.  One tech says it should be easily possible; one says I need to buy another monthly service; one says it is impossible and I should just buy a Blackberry.
    At this point.... I'm not sure I actually care what the answer is, but I would just like a definitive answer....
    I have a Palm Tungsten T5.
    I want to sync that Contact and Calendar information regularly with an Outlook Web Access account so that my colleagues can see and edit my schedule as needed.... then the info would sync BACK to my Palm so that I can have my current schedule with me.
    Can anyone shed some light on this please??
    Thank you!
    Emily Koenig
    Post relates to: Tungsten T5

    The short answer is no.
    The t-5 has the ability to connect to an exchange server but the version of versamail it has would only sync mail and calendar. You would have to have a wifi card to be able to do even that. To do what you would want you would need to upgrade the versamail client (I don't believe Palm has an upgrade for the T-5) and a wifi card.

  • ACS 5.1 with Outlook Web Access

    Hi Everyone,
    I have a weird issue which i am troubleshooting. I just wanted to see if anyone had a different view on this.....
    I have an AD User, lets call them work\auser and there password just expired, so next logon to the domain they need to change there password.
    They decide while at home to connect to Outlook Web Access, which authenticates to via ACS 5.1 to AD, when they try and connect they are denied with the following message in ACS -
    24407 User authentication against Active Directory failed since user is required to change his password
    :                                                        Authentication failed
    ACS also says this as resolution -
    Check the password expiry under Account options in the properties of an  external database user. If the password is expired and the Enable Change  Password is turned on in the Users and Identity Stores: External  Identity Stores > Active Directory page, then the password will be  changed.
    Now, our OWA is not configured to allow password resets, so they must call in to have there password reset, or they can connect via VPN and our ASA allows them to change there password as configured under Identity Stores > Active Directory > Enable Password Change
    This VPN password change is successful although OWA still will not work. The only way to fix it is to select passwsord does not expire within AD. Let it replicate, then de-select password does not expire and let it replicate.
    This is pointing to a OWA issue in my opinion, although ACS is somehow involved, is it possible that ACS caches authentication, or because OWA does not allow password resets, it keeps responding with user required to change his password?
    Any thoughts or different ways to look at this from a troubleshooting perspective would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks

    The following is the procedure I am familiar with:
    Resetting the Administrator Password
    If you are not able to log in to the system due to loss of administrator password, you can use the ACS 5.1 Recovery DVD to reset the administrator password.
    To reset the administrator password:
    Step 1 Power up the appliance.
    Step 2 Insert the ACS 5.1 Recovery DVD.
    The console displays:
    Welcome to Cisco Secure ACS 5.1 Recovery - CSACS 1121
    To boot from hard disk press
    Available boot options:
    [1] Cisco Secure ACS 5.1 Installation (Keyboard/Monitor)
    [2] Cisco Secure ACS 5.1 Installation (Serial Console)
    [3] Reset Administrator Password (Keyboard/Monitor)
    [4] Reset Administrator Password (Serial Console)
    Boot from hard disk
    Please enter boot option and press .
    boot:
    Step 3 To reset the administrator password, at the system prompt, enter 3 if you are using a keyboard and video monitor, or enter 4 if you are using a serial console port.

  • MS Exchange portlet with Outlook Web Access

    While testing the MS Exchange 5.5 portlets, I've run into a problem where it does not create a MAPI session if you are not trying to access a local exchange server. In other words, how do I modify the asp code so the portlet will work if you are accessing Outlook Web Access?
    If Outlook Web Access is on a different domain than the asp's in the MSEXCHANGE55.zip portlet package, what else needs to be modified?

    The problem is a bit different than the post you referenced.
    Although exchange and owa existing on the server with the Exchange asp's from Oracle, the problem of authentication still exists (the asp code needs to be modified in order to fix it).
    For example --
    The domain of Oracle portal and the windows 2000 server that's the web provider for the portlet is somehost.oracle.com.
    The email server that has OWA installed (the one that has the email we want to view) is on someotherhost.ibm.com.
    When try to test the inbox.asp by trying
    https://somehost.oracle.com/exchange_portlet/inbox.asp?owapath=https://someotherhost.ibm.com/exchange
    the session with the exchange server via OWA is not accomplished.
    What needs to be changed in the code so the asp's can reside on a server that's not in the same domain as the OWA server?

  • Syncing with Outlook Web Access

    I recently installed Thunderbird to access work e-mail, which uses Outlook Web Access. When I move a message in Thunderbird to a folder, I see that it's still in the inbox in Outlook. There must be some syncing setting that I'm missing. Help is much appreciated.

    Lets see. OWA is not IMAP. You can access exchange mail via OWA. Either using davmail or the exequilla add-on.
    The IMAP implementation in exchange is odd. This is mainly because Microsoft never intended anyone to actually use it, but marketing needed to be able to say it supported it. So have you set Mail.imap.expunge_after_delete to true and restarted Thunderbird.
    Many settings that have no user interface are only read on startup of the program.

  • Outlook Web Access hangs constantly

    i'm using safari to use Microsoft Office Outlook Web Access to get to the email server for my office. I have been able to log in and can receive, read and reply to emails with no problem, except that safari hangs almost exactly every minute, for 20 seconds, presumably while it checks for more mail..
    this makes it almost unusable.
    i've mailed my company tech support guys, but they're in australia (asleep!) and i need to work now!
    i'm guessing that this is only something that they can fix, perhaps by setting my outlook to check for mails manually rather than every minute?
    or am i completely misunderstanding this problem?
    thanks in advance

  • Outlook Web Access (OWA)

    My company uses an Exchange Server with Outlook Web Access enabled, but I'm not sure of the other settings (IMAP?)
    When I got my iPhone I could not set up a link to the main server, but after some research discovered I could retrieve and send mail if I set up the account like this:
    webmail.companyname.com
    username: first.lastname (as my company designates us)
    password: as required.
    This worked fine until the company turned off some function of the server so that we can only access mail by signing into webmail with a browser (very cumbersome). However, users of Sprint Instincts can still access their mail by using the Instinct's mail setup and specifying an OWA account. Their mail is not "pushed" to their phones, but they can still access it by going to their mail function similar to us iPhone users just touching the mail icon. They are not looking at a website like through a browser, but rather just like any other synched mailbox.
    Why can't the iPhone still access webmail like the Instinct? Is there a way around this or an App that makes webmail accessible without going through the browser?
    Thanks,
    Tim

  • Portal and Non-Exchange Outlook Web-access integration

    Hi, Expert,
    the question concerns  SAP EP  integration with Outlook Web Access (OWA).
    The problem is that OWA is not based on MS Exchange Server, but on CommuniGate Pro.
    So I need any help, here are my question:
    1. Did anyone integrate this 2 systems?
    2. What is the point where I have to begin from?
    3. Do I need any connectors for this activity?
    For the completness of my problem: what do i really need is to use calendar (an other Outlook-like things) in my portal.
    Thanks in advance!

    You could try this if you have Outlook Web Access already working, put the following into a html portlet and just replace the url with your outlook web access url.
    Our admin guys have enabled automatic login to outlook if using internet explorer

  • Outlook Web Access will only log in as Light Version

    My office has been using Microsoft Exchange Outlook Web Access for longer than a year at least. We have been using the full version.  We have a desktop operating Windows 7 with the most updated IE browser, and my computer a Windows 8 laptop with the
    most updated IE browser. My lap top is where the problem is. As of about two days ago the OWA is only logging in as the Light version. There is an option on the log in screen that says "Use Outlook Web Access Light" and the box is checked and grayed
    out so that I can not uncheck it. I did not check this myself it just happened. Also the setting for blind and vision impaired users is not checked off in the accessibility tab under options. I have checked the Windows 7 desktop and it is functioning
    normally.  It allows the user to check or uncheck the "use outlook web access light" at will and does not get stuck in Light version.  Also please note that this is the same email address for both computers not multiple users
    where one works and one doesn't.  I am charged to monitor the email in our office and do it from the laptop but there is access to it on the desktop if the other employee needs access.  I have also seen forums where they say to
    change the server to say OWAPremiumClientEnabled. I do not know how to do this.  If this is a possible solution please give me steps on how to access the server which i don't even know if i am connected to.

    What kind of help do you need?
    If Outlook Web App opens just in a light version, you have to update your Exchange Server to resolve this issue.
    Also you can temporarily add the URL/Domain to the Compatibility List as said Martina_Miskovic.

  • Cannot press SEND / NEW MAIL button in MS Outlook Web Access

    I am completely upset after updating the iphone os 4.1 because i cannot simply send email using the MS outlook web access. FYI I can still view the email but cannot send. my company doesnt allow me to use the POP (similar to yahoo) for security reason and hence i must need to use the webmail (via internet).
    moreover, my wife just bought another one which is still under 4.01 but her phone can do. what's the problem? can i convert back to 4.01 or my phone has problem? pls help. thanks!

    Solution (found by searching forum for "Safari Crashes"):
    Settings > Safari > Autofill > Names & Passwords "Set to OFF".
    Then choose "Continue" the next time. You've lost your password fill-in but at least you can log in.

  • Is there a Firefox plug-in for Outlook Web Access?

    I want to access all of Outlook's functions but can't through Firefox, only through Explorer.
    In Outlook Web Access through Firefox, I don't have access to menu options for italics, bold, underlining, etc., and I can't view the list of emails on one side while viewing the email content of one email on the other side. The place to access folders like the sent box is different, too, through Firefox. It's a very downgraded version of Outlook Web Access. How can I get the better version of Outlook Web Access while still keeping Firefox as my browser? Is there a plug-in? If not, can Firefox fix this issue with its browser?

    Firefox 3.03 - why such an old version? 3.6.12 is the most recent release.
    It is up to Microsoft to fix Outlook Web Access to work with Firefox or to come up with a plugin for Firefox. If Mozilla was to start fixing or write plugins for all the software out there that is made to work with Internet Explorer and not any other browser, they wouldn't have time to work on Firefox.
    There are two Firefox extensions that will open IE in a Firefox tab. Many users install one of these addons to get around problems like you are having with Outlook Web Access.

  • Safari 4.0.3 problems with MS Outlook Web Access

    I am constantly prompted for my password in MS Outlook Web Access since I upgraded to 4.0.3. This was a minimal problem previously; each time I logged in I would have to enter my password a few times and then be done with it. Now, almost any time I click on ANYTHING I am prompted for my password. Checking the box for 'Remember this password in my keychain' has never had any affect. I'm rather computer illiterate, but I'm willing to try any suggestions! Thanks!

    I have a feeling it's a problem with Apple's javascript. I've also posted a thread here showing that it doesn't work properly with javascript if multiple tabs are open.
    This wouldn't be a "fix"... but it might be worth a try to close all other tabs and see if it works when only one tab is open & then try it again with multiple tabs open and see if that breaks it.
    At least then we'll know we've got a pattern here similar to my issue. I have a feeling the only way this'll get fixed is if Apple gets a head's up and fixes it themselves in Safari.

  • Outlook Web Access not working in Safari or any other browse

    When I try to access OWA from ANY browser, Safari, IE, or Firefox, I get the same error.
    "You could not be logged on to Outlook Web Access. Make sure your User Name and Password are correct, and then try again."
    When I log in from my PC, I don't have this problem.
    The IT guys at work claim that they won't support Mac problems. Typical....
    Any thoughts?

    Don't know if this will help, but are you providing the correct credentials via Safari? When you use IE, you are presented with a dialog box that asks for userid, password, and domain name. Safari and other browsers will only ask for the userid and password. Consequently, when using these browsers, you need to preface your userid with the domain name followed by a backslash. For example:
    mydomain\jsmith
    While Safari works with OWA, it has an annoying habit of requesting the username and password frequently as you navigate through OWA. I also find that I occasionally have to to click twice on a button to get Safari to activate a command such as reading a message or the Send button. I now use Camino for OWA access. It's cleaner and faster.

  • Cannot contact Exchange Server or open Outlook Web Access in Safari

    I am a small business user operating in an Exchange environment and have been having some connectivity problems:
    1. Mail: I have been able to connect to and download emails from my Exchange server in Mail (both public and private folders) but have not been able to send mails through the same account. The server address is the same address as we use for Outlook Web Access (OWA). We do not use POP or SMTP, nor do we have separate addresses on the Exchange/OWA account.
    2. Safari: For some reason, it is not possible for me to open OWA; Safari just "hangs" indefinitely and does not prompt for password or username. The window just remains blank. My OWA works perfectly with Windows-based machines.
    3. Address: it is not possible to contact the Exchange server from Address Book to synchronize contacts. I keep getting an error that "iSync couldn't connect to Exchange". As I have just purchsed an iPhone, it is critical to make this work, otherwise I have no contacts on the iPhone.
    In all cases, my Exchange/OWA server address is *https://mail.servername.com/exchange/username* for both outgoing and incoming mails. I have checked that the password and username are correct.
    Can somebody help me here? Is there a server or client side adjustment that needs to be made? Are there any special certificates that are required? Making this work is really important...
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    I have the exact same problem as you have detailed in your #2 comment. OWA just hangs and will not proceed to the sign in screen. Any luck getting support on this?
