  • Hallo, ich arbeite normalerweise mit Tobit. Weil ich das Notebook vorübergehend mit Outlook betreiben möchte, habe ich von einem anderen Rechner die .pst kopiert. Die darin enthaltenen Mails etc. werden angezeigt. Es fehlt aber der Menüpunkt Konten. Zunächst habe ich die Software von Tobit deinstalliert. Die Konten fehlen aber immer noch. Wie komme ich wieder an die Konten, bzw. wie kann ich ein Konto neu anlegen? Gruß K.-D.
• Outlook 2003 A Dialog Box Is Open
  • A friend of mine called because all of a sudden her Outlook 2003 started popping up a message "A dialog box is open". Actually this is the second time this has happened. As usual I Googled on this problem and most people seem to think that the dialog that's hidden is the one that pops up when you first install office and open an application that asks you for your name and initials. The first time around I tried opening Word / Access and PowerPoint and that dialog never opened, most likely because it had already been filled in after the initial installation. I did a complete uninstall / reinstall and started word and filled the dialog out and that was three months ago and there's been no problem up until now. So now this is happening again and I've checked in word tools / options / user information tab and the information is filled out. I've been unable to find any other information on this other than in Outlook 2007 a patch KB946983 was known to cause this and uninstalling it fixed the problem. I checked both add / remove programs and searched the windows directory and this patch (if it's even relevant for Outlook 2003) is not installed. As I'd rather not spend two hours uninstalling / reinstalling and the putting on all services packs and patches does anyone have an idea about how to remedy this? Thanks, - Chris
• Outlook 2003 Address Book and PST Problems
  • Hi, My Outlook 2003 is encountering the following problems: When I load Outlook I get this message: "Cannot start the reminder service. Unable to show reminders. Th Reminders folder could not be found. Another application closed whil using your Personal Folders fil c:\users\name\appdata\local\microsoft\outlook\outlook.pst. To preven further damage to your Personal Folders file, it will not be availabl until you close all applications using it." I also get this message when it tries to send and receive: Task 'mail.optusnet.com.au - Sending reported error (0x80040119) Unknown Error 0x80040119 Task 'mail.optusnet.com.au - Sending reported error (0x80040119) Unknown Error 0x80040119 When I try to load my address book I get this message: "The address list could not be displayed. The Contacts Folde associated with this address list could not be opened; it may have bee moved or deleted, or you do not have permission. For information on ho to remove this folder from the Outlook Address Book, See Microsof Office Help." This is what I've tried to do: * Delete old profile and create new profile through mail in contro panel. * My technician deleted the old pst files and created new files. * Uninstalled Outlook and reinstalled Outlook. * Used switches to try and reset profile and reminders. * Used Windows Clean Up Install Utility . * Changed the pst in Data File Management. * Checked with ISP Optus to make sure all the settings are correct. * Disabled add on progams such as antivirus software. I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium. I've been to three technicians and a major software company and poste several times on other forums but nobody seems to know the answer t this. I'm thinking it may have to do with the registries but I'm no sure. Basically, all I need is a fix but I would rather if someone would tel me how I can completely clean Microsoft Outlook 2003 from my compute and then reinstall it as if it never existed. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Kind regards, Modern Dinosau -- Modern Dinosaur

• Outlook 2003 Crashing
  • A friend of mine is having a somewhat serious problem with Outlook and so far I've been unable to fix it. One day it was working fine then when she went to start Outlook it reported that it had crashed, the exception code appears to be 0xc0000005 which I've Googled. In most cases people have reported this problem being caused by a corrupt profile or a damaged office installation. Before trying anything else, I ran a chkdsk with both "automatically fix file system errors" and "scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors" just in case this was some disk related problem. As far as I can tell there were no problems found and the disk was reported clean. I first tried deleting the profile and creating a new profile but the same thing happened. I then uninstalled Office 2003 and did a complete reinstall and after setting up the account again the exact same error occurred. Outlook will start in safe mode but I can't get it to start normally. Can anyone offer some idea's on how to deal with this problem? Thanks, - Chris
• How can I check properties of incoming emails i Outlook?

• synchronising Outlook 2007 contacts data with backed up version
  • Dear list members, I use Outlook 2007 under Win XP. In December, I downloaded Nokia's new "Ovi Suite" software, connecting my Windows machine to my Nokia handset. Synchronising with Ovi suite truncated the longer entries in my MSO Contacts fields (some 200 entries). Fortunately, I back up my HDD regularly, so have the data elsewhere. I have repeatedly sought Nokia's help in restoring the lost data, but they have yet to reply. Thus, my backed up Outlook contacts are now out of date. I am therefore trying to merge my backed up Contacts data with that now on my machine. The merge should be sensitive both to December's truncation, but also to the possibility of data added since then. I would be very grateful for any suggestions. Thank you in advance for your help, Colin Rowat
• Permissions for not allowing users to delete items out of generic
  • Hey everyone, Quick question that i'm stumbiling over. I have a manager who wants his group of employees to be able to edit emails within the generic mailbox that we created for their department. However the one thing they DO NOT want certain people to be able to do is delete emails that have come into these boxes. Any ideas on how to put this in place -- I have full access to my ms exchange server however when i attempted to give the groups that i assigned these guys to, and denied them access to Deleting Storage that did not work.

• Indexing Option Icon
  • Using Windows XP and Office 2007 Have installed the necessary components for the instant search, and it is working fine. One of the computers on which this was installed displays a new icon that looks like a magnifying glass in the system tray. The second computer in the office on which this was installed and on which the instant search is also working, does not have the magnifying glass icon in the system tray. By the way, is it still called the system tray? I'm talking about the lower right corner of the task bar at the very bottom of the screen.

• Instant search not available in Outlook 2007
  • Someone I'm helping has Outlook 2007 under Windows XP. He is unable to search e-mail folders for "sent by" or "keywords" or other filters. What I mean is that if he selects "All Mail Items" and moves the mouse to the search tool (the top of the screen with the magnifying glass icon) and then clicks on the 2 drop down arrows (with the hover text "Expand the Query Builder", all those query boxes are grayed out. Can anyone tell how he would enable them so that he can do fast searches of his mails in Outlook? Is this something to do with the indexing service on his PC? If so, how does he find out if it's installed and indexing properly. Is indexing a standard component on Windows XP or is it an additional download? Thanks Peter

• OL 2007 save as .txt adds line breaks
  • Good day, we receive reports from our database system in landscape plain text format which are then saved to disk and further processed with systems such as MS Excel or Access. Problem is, that since Outlook 2007 these e-mails get re-formatted by Outlook (adding line breaks according to the display on the screen) causing all Excel / Access routines to break. In Outlook 2003 this did not happen. Is there a way to prevent this and save the .txt e-mail as it comes from the server? Thanks n brgds Philipp Post

• Outlook 2003: Your message did not reach some or all of the
  • I'm having an odd problem with outgoing email in Outlook 2003. I just got a new laptop w/XP Pro and loaded the MS Office Standar Suite w/SP1. I also downloaded and installed Office SP3. I set up Outlook email w/all my POP3 settings and tested the setting in Outlook -- all fine. Incoming email is no problem. However for some outgoing emails, I ge an immediate (and I mean instantaneous) bounce-back message that look like the following: Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients. Subject: Test Sent: 2/5/2010 12:13 PM The following recipient(s) could not be reached: thelsey1@optonline.net on 2/5/2010 12:13 PM None of your e-mail accounts could send to this recipient. The problem seems to be specific to certain email addresses. Som addresses I send to are fine; others get that instant bounce back. An there seems to be no domain patterns. For example, some gmail addresse work, others don't. to check to make sure it's not my ISP or settings, I set up Outloo Express w/the same settings and all emails went out flawlessly -- n bounce back issue. What's curious is how quickly the emails bounce back. It's not lik it's traveling to the recipient, and being processed, and the returned. It's like it's being immediately rejected. I've uninstalled and re-installed Outlook 2003 and SP3 to no avail. also did a system restore to an earlier point to see if some software loaded might be causing a conflict, but the problem persists. I als disbaled my anti-virus software...problem still persists. Anyone hav any idea what the problem could be -- markgrossman

• Where is the Delete Messages options?
  • I've looked and looked without success. I'm pretty sure I saw it before. Its where it asks you if you want to save a copy of messages on the server and then should give an option for it to be deleted from the server when you delete it from your Deleted folder in Outlook. That seems like a good way of syncing things.

If I reopen the Group Contact I see the changes that I made (but did not save). I am prompted to Save or Cancel the 'changes' yet again and again I Cancel. The only way to view the Group Contact without those changes is to open yet another Contact and then go back to the Group Contact in question. I now see the unchanged (and original) Group Contact.

• Where else to find folders of emails on a computer?
  • We are using Outlook 2007 with Exchange server. We have a user who has been moving his emails off of the Exchange server to some folders he created or by Auto Archive feature in Outlook 2007. He basically drag and drop the emails from his Exchange server Inbox to his folders on the left side. The question is, where are all of these folders full of emails located on the local computer? At first I thought it must have been the Auto Archive feature that kicks in every 14 days and created those folders for him to be able to drag and drop, but when I check the following location the archive.pst file size is very small. C:\Documents and Settings\%your username%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\ The total folders of emails must be about 1 to 2GB in file size. Where else on the local machine could Outlook had put it? Any help is much appreciated.
