Why won't subfolders populate with messages in Outlook 2013 (only on one account)?

I just migrated 8 users from Gmail to Office 365 Online Exchange.  Everything went swimmingly well for all accounts except one.  Strangely, the accounts with unbelievably large folders and subfolders had no problem populating their users Outlook
2010 and 2013 installations.  Just this one account with very little email but some nested subfolders beneath the Inbox is having problems.  I used the built-in migration tool in Office 365 with success in all cases.  However, although
this user has access to all her email when logged into the portal, nothing I do seems to get email into those subfolders in Outlook. 
Here's some things I've tried.  I've tried exporting to a .pst file in the Gmail account.  Unfortunately the .pst file has no messages in the subfolders (I seem to remember this as a feature of gmail imap.) I've tried moving the messages in the
Inbox (it's pretty little) into a subfolder online and moving the subfolder messages down to the local PC through the inbox.  The messages came down to the inbox but disappear when I try to move them into the subfolder!  I've not only recreated
the profile but I just added the profile to my own office PC running Windows 8.1 and Outlook 2013 and am getting the same result.
There must be a way to do this.  I'm embarrassed at the moment and hope someone can help!

Did you try changing the view? I've had issues exporting IMAP mail because the folders retain the IMAP type flag and use IMAP and I suspect that is what is going on here.

  • Outlook 2013 - BCC field won't auto populate with frequent email recipient.

    Outlook 2013 - BCC field won't auto populate with frequent email recipient. In the TO or CC, if they enter the first initial of a recipient, it auto-suggests recipients. This does not happen in the BCC field. Is there an option to turn that on?

    Hi,
    Does this issue happen to a certain client or many of them?
    There is no separate option to enable/disable auto-complete for Bcc field.
    Since auto-complete works in the To and Cc fields, it means the auto-complete is not corrupt. We may try turn off the Auto-Complete and turn on it again to see the result. To do this, go to
    File > Options > Mail, scroll down to the
    Send messages section, clear the check box before "Use Auto-Complete List to suggest names when typing in the To, Cc, Bcc lines". Click
    OK. Check the box again, click OK and see the result.
    We may also test it in Outlook safe mode. To do this, press Windows key + R to open the Run command, type
    outlook.exe /safe and press Enter.
    Please let me know the result.

    Launch/Utilities/Terminal and enter this command at the prompt:
    diskutil list
    Press return.
    If it sees the disk, note the number of the disk (far left column) you want to mount.
    Then, enter this command:
    mount /dev/(number of disk)
    Put in the number no parenthesis.
    Press Return.
    If that doesn't wortk try the same with this command...
    mount force /dev/(number of disk)

    Are the other iPods models, same version as yours. The 2 New FM Tx may need a new iPod software, which you can update via iTunes.

  • According to my network provider (Amaysim/Optus) Tethering is enabled, so why do I get this error message "to enable personal hotspot on this account, contact OPTUS"

    According to my network provider (Amaysim/Optus) Tethering is enabled, so why do I get this error message "to enable personal hotspot on this account, contact OPTUS"
    Amysim/Optus support can not help.
    I can not check or change any network settings (no APN settings)
    I have synced phone using latest itunes (10.5.3).
    Phone software is up to date (5.0.1).
    Network settings have been reset.
    SIM card has been taken out and put back in.
    Phone has been switched off/on again.
    Another sim card from virgin works ok (hotspot option is visible and can be turned on/off as required)
    The Amaysim/Optus SIM card can be put into another phone (android) and tethering/hotspot works fine.
    Can anyone provide solution to this nightmare?

    I am having the same issue although i have an iphone 5. I have contacted Live connected numerous times an tried everything imaginable to solve the issue. Is it possibly a handset issue? I cant recieve any help from optus as im with live connected, they cant help me and apple keep telling me to contact your carrier ( live connected). Seems to make me want to switch providers pretty shortly..
    please let me know if you can solve your issue and maybe it can help me too..

  • HT4314 i have 2 game center account with 1 apple id  but it will only access one account. it says the other id is used but i cant change . help.

    I have a game center account that has 2 accounts in the same apple id. the problem is i can only access one account. when i try to type in for the second account it says already taken. How do i change to the 2nd account with the same apple id? Please help.

    that's the issue, you bought the OS online so Donald is right, it is being mailed to you. post the URL where you bought it.
    the 'app store' is an application running on OSX itself where you can DL software.
    so, you have to wait for mountain lion to arrive.
    if you want to get a clean OS on your machine now, do this
    reboot holding down command/option/R (hoping your machine supports this)
    open disk utility, erase your HD so you have a single mac journaled partition
    choose install OSX on this HD
    let it run. from what you said, you will be back on lion.

  • I keep getting notified I have an update available but when I try to update I get the following msg ,"You have updates available for other accounts". I only have one account with apple and purchased the software when I got my macbook in Aug 2012.

    I keep getting notified I have an update available but when I try to update I get the following msg ,"You have updates available for other accounts To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it.". I only have one account with apple and the software was preinstalled when I purchased my macbook in Aug 2012 with that account. Has anyone had this problem or know how to find out what account apple needs?

    You log into the App store using the same Apple ID you used to set the computer up, verify that none of your apps are hidden and that they have all be accepted and then download and install the update
    for help contact the App store support - link is on the right ot the App store window

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You should only get that message when you are trying to create a new account.
    Unfortunately once all the 3 iCloud accounts have been created on your mobile device, you cannot create any more regardless of what you do. You will need to re-use one of the accounts that you have already created or create your new account on another device or computer.
