Hi Experts,

I am using Microsoft Outlook 2016 since 2015 and I have lot of  emails, contacts, calendar and tasks in Outlook data file (.pst). I want to use Microsoft Office 365 Cloud service to keep data in more security and due to other reasons. So, I want to migrate from Office 2016 (Desktop) to Cloud (Office 365). I have already purchased Office 365 package. But, now the problem is that I don't know how to import emails, contacts, calendars and tasks from Outlook to Office 365 webmail account. Is there anyone who can suggest me best way to migrate Outlook PST file to Office 365 directly without getting any problem?


Thanks & Regards,
Bruce Anderson

Suggestion: Folder shows number of items not 'marked as complete'

$

Currently there are two options:
- Show number of unread emails in folder
- Show number of all emails in folder

It would be a great help if I could see the number of mails I have to take care of after sorting. My behaviour is that I either leave the mail untouched (after reading), or mark with flag indicating my next steps. And, of course, mark as complete once tasks inside mail were finished.

With some minimal coding I think you could add a third option like this.


Outlook Search not working as of late January 2018

$

I am running Windows 10 Pro 64 bit version 10.0.16299, Office 365 version 1712 (Build 8827.2148), and in Outlook itself it reports version 2016 MSO (16.0.8827.2131) 32 bit. Sometime between Monday Jan 22 and Wednesday Jan 24, 2018 the search function in Outlook mail became "broken", returning no results. I stopped and restarted the search service, and re-indexed the search in Indexing. The desktop search of files on the computer is working just fine, but when I put in any search item in Outlook Mail program it returns nothing, (showing the default message to "find more on the server", but I only have my mail stored here locally for the most part). Search does seem to be working for searching in the Calendar, (if I put in a client's name, all their appointments show up), so it is just not searching the mail folders on the computer apparently. I am using a gmail mail address only, with .PST files for each year. Up until a day or so ago, if I entered a client's name, all their emails, going back many years, showed up instantly as it searched through all those PST files. Now, nothing shows up at all. I have also done a repair of the PST files using Scanpst.exe.

I have another computer, my laptop, and the same issue is present in Outlook too (though it's version of Office is the same, the Outlook version is 16.0.8827.2131). 

Again, the desktop search for documents/files is working. But there is something seriously wrong with Outlook search. I also reinstalled Outlook just before I wrote this note, with a full "Online Repair". I know/remember it has been broken before by updates, did this happen again? Anybody else having this same issue?

When i click an email, the Preview pane does not show the full meesage of the email. It shows "Download the rest of this message now" butten instead. I have to click this button to download the full message. This issue is not related to Exchange Server because I setup Outlook in another computer for my profile and this issue does not occur. Other collegues do not encounter this issue either.

How to fix this issue to let it show the full message in the Preview pane? I use Outlook 2007.

Outlook 2016 will not connect to Exchange 2016 with Network Location Awareness service started

$

We have an air-gapped network (nic always give warning triangle and says No Internet Access)

Brand New Domain

Brand New Exchange Server 2016 with latest updates

Brand New Windows 10 clients latest updates with Office 2016 installed and latest updates.

Outlook 2016 would not start after autodiscover with various messages like "The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action".

After a week of research and different Win10 builds we finally narrowed the problem to disabling "Network Location Awareness" and stopping both the "Network Location Awareness" and its dependency "Network List Service".

The questions are:

Why does Outlook 2016 rely on this service?

Why does it work with this service turned off?

Is there another workaround other than disabling this service?

thanks

Outlook 2016 Other Contacts loses chosen view

$

Hello,

Customer has Outlook 2016 as part of the Office Home and Business package.  He is a member of an Exchange Online company with 3 users and has his company email account setup in his Outlook.  He has his default contacts folder which seems to work fine.  He also has an "other contacts" folder which is a shared public folder holding company contacts.  When he displays this folder, it always opens in the "People" view.  He wants it to shows the "Business Card" view and switches to that view.  After closing outlook or reading email, when he goes back to that contacts folder, it has reverted back to the People view.

In comparison, his default contacts folder remembers the chosen view when switching windows in Outlook or closing the program.  It comes back to the same view it was left in.

I thought this was a local issue on his machine and went to another user's machine.  I found exactly the same issue with that user's Outlook 2016.

The 3rd user has Outlook 2010 and his Outlook functions as expected.  Both default and "other" contacts remember the chosen view when switching windows or closing and re-opening outlook.

I've looked at all the view management windows in Outlook 2016.  It doesn't allow marking any particular view the "Default" view.  Generally we expect views to be remembered.

I've checked for Office 2016 updates and we are running the latest.  I've done an Office Repair but nothing changed.

Any ideas how to fix this (or is it a known bug)?

Thanks,

Outlook Client and Outlook Web Access (.ICS File Format)

Hi, can anyone here please help to explain and provide some sort of supporting documents on my query.

Why is it when I receive a course/webminar booking through email (or maybe a travel reservation/schedule), I normally see the email through the Outlook Client (meaning it's visible and came into the inbox) but I could not find this same email in Outlook Web Access (even if I did a search in my email folders in OWA)? I believe the email is in .ICS format because when I open the email and I do a File\SaveAs, it auto default to an ICS file format. When I open the email, I can see that I can send it to myself (with the send button) and above got the message " You haven't sent this meeting invitation yet". Please note that the email received/booking is not in the form of an attachment. Whoever experience or saw this behaviour before, please help and assist. Thank you.

Hi

Outlook 2016 on Windows Server 2016 Remote Desktop. When opening a picture attachment, Outlook does not remember "always use this app".

So I have to click on that app I want to open the picture with every time.

No matter which program I use to open pictures with: Paint, Photo Viewer, or 3. party like nomacs - Image Lounge.

PDF files is no issue, opens with Adobe as configured.

Picture files on desktop - no issue

I have tried both quick and online repair of Office.

I don't seems to be the only one:

Outlook freezes or hangs when attempting to right open attachments or hyperlinks. Office has been removed and reinstalled. New windows profile. Office product is fully up to date. Windows is fully up to date. Created new outlook profile . Issues remains. 5 dots scroll across the screen when attempting to open the files up and this happens with every email. Once the file is opened and then closed it opened up instantly. but when attempting to open the same file again the email hangs.

Outlook block Jpeg

Can outlook2016 block all jpeg images, or at least until I want to open them on a per email basis? (I want to block spam emails with inappropriate jpegs attached) If not maybe you know of an add in that can achieve this?

I have already set the trust center settings to "don't download any pictures...", but the occasional jpegs are still coming through...


Outlook hangs when forwarding an email with an image file attached

I have a large number of Outlook 2016 clients that are seeing an issue where when they click the forward button on a email that has an image file attached (jpg, png) the Outlook client hangs/locks up completely for about 3 seconds. 

I ran Process Monitor to see what it is doing in those 3 seconds and the last thing that is displayed before the 3 second gap is the OST file for that user.  I wiped out the OST file, allowed it to rebuild and the hang is gone.  The next day it was happening again.  

The size of the image file doesn't appear to make any difference.  Other file types arn't affected though.  PDFs for example work fine.  

Any ideas?

  

Outlook 2010 can't connect to Exchange Online

$

Dear All,

We are running Exchange 2010 SP3 & Outlook 2010 in a Citrix environment. As a pilot, some of our mailboxes are migrated to Exchange Online. When we try to connect with the Outlook 2010 client (in the Citrix environment) to the migrated mailbox in Exchange Online we get a "Server not available" message. Outlook 2010 can connect to mailboxes On Premise (Citrix environment). From my laptop (no Citrix) I can connect with Outlook 2016 to Exchange Online without any issues. This situation is from the 1st of November. Can this has to do with Microsoft not accepting any TLS 1.0 connections to Office 365 anymore? If so, is there a way to fix this?

Many thanks in advance

Office 2016 will not connect to local MS Exchange 2010

Hello,

We have a SBS 2011 server running Exchange 2010.   A user has a Win10 laptop and they purchased MS Office through the MS Store as part of the purchase.

When trying to connect Outlook it doesn't recognize the Exchange server even though I tell it we have an exchange server it just connects to a random Outlook_bunch_Of_numbers@outlook.com email for some reason  There is no way of manually telling it this is the server.

Thanks.
