Over the years, I've created many archive files (I used to archive by month and then later by year as space became less of an issue).
I still use them as a reference sometimes and I'd like to combine them into one big archive as it is easier to manage and simplifies searching as well.
How can I merge them together?
Is it possible to print the attendee list of a meeting together with the information whether they accepted the meeting and/or showed up?
Since the HTTP method of accessing my Live Hotmail account in Outlook is no longer supported, I found that I have the option to either use the Outlook Hotmail Connector or configure it via POP3.
What is the difference and which one should I choose?
I'm using Office 365 but I seem unable to share and sync my mail, calendar and contact items between multiple computers even though I'm allowed to install it on up to 5 devices.
I was told that Office 365 was "Cloud Based" and I’m signed in with my Microsoft Account to Office, so shouldn't I be able to do this?
Whenever I try to send a message, click on the Send/Receive button or when Outlook sends/receives by itself, Outlook crashes.
I can still use all the other functions in Outlook and Outlook works just fine when I place it in Offline mode. However, it would be nice to be able to send/receive some new emails as well. ;-)
How can I get Outlook back to work again?
My Outlook is really slow with Hotmail accounts but fine on anything POP3.
It doesn't seem to keep a record of what's been synched already i.e.: if I do a send/recieve on a Hotmail Inbox it synchs the whole box - taking 20 minutes or so - but next time I load Outlook up they're all not synched again.
When I move to a Hotmail Inbox, it can be 30-60 seconds saying "synchronizing message headers" or times out with an error.
Is there a simple fix?
I like the concept of making it more clear which emails are from my contacts and which aren’t but I don’t like to move these emails out of my Inbox as explained in: Move emails from unknown Contacts out of your Inbox folder.
Can I highlight emails from my known Contacts in my Inbox folder instead?
In Outlook 2010 on Windows 7, I was able to alter the “New Mail Desktop Alert” duration to up to 30 seconds in Outlook or perpetual via your mentioned Registry key modification.
Now that I’m using Outlook 2013 on Windows 8, the new mail alerts are only visible for 5 seconds and I can’t find an option to change that in Outlook 2013 nor does the Registry hack do anything.
Is there a way to get these mail alerts to show for longer than 5 seconds for Outlook 2013 on Windows 8?
I have access to multiple calendars in Outlook. With the overlay option I'm able to combine them but I cannot seem to print the calendars in this combined state.
How can I print multiple calendars in a single view?
I was using Outlook 2003 on Windows XP. Now I installed it on Windows 7, where I use the standard Aero Glass user interface (and would like to continue using it).
Now the toolbars and other internal areas in outlook (e.g. email view) appear in a baby-blue background. Only the outer border of the window is in the Aero Glass color scheme.
How do I change the background color of the toolbars etc. (get rid of the baby-blue)?
