With Google moving away from Basic Authentication and recommending to use OAuth instead, I want to enable 2-Step Verification for my Google account to increase security.
How do I best approach this and what changes do I need to make in Outlook to keep receiving my emails?
Instead of forwarding a message to someone else, I accidentally replied to it.
As this is a bit of an embarrassing mistake, I was wondering if I could “undo” the sending of this message.
Can I recall a message and how can I prevent future mistakes?
I received a message from a new contact and I wanted to add him to my Outlook contacts.
Usually, I just right click on the sender’s name in the Reading Pane and choose “Add to Outlook Contacts” which opens a new contact item with the name and email address already filled out. However, I found this option not available for this sender even though I don’t have him added as a contact yet.
How do I get this “Add to Outlook Contacts” option back?
When I wanted to edit my Signature, I noticed that the Signatures button isn’t working at all when I click on it. The same is true for the Stationery and Fonts… button.
I tried repairing my installation of Office but that didn’t work.
How can I get my Signature Editor to work again?
I have a laptop with a touch screen (actually, it is a Surface tablet) and also an iPad. When I use OWA on my iPad, it is optimized for touch input. For instance, some buttons are larger and there is an options bar at the bottom.
However, on my Surface, it always loads the mouse optimized version. This is true even when I detach the keyboard and use the Internet Explorer Modern App instead of the Desktop version.
Is there any way to get my Surface to load the touch optimized version of OWA as well?
We are using a customized Contacts form in Outlook for which we’ve defined some additional fields.
We now want to use these custom contacts fields within a Mail Merge. However, upon composing the message, these fields are not available for the Mail Merge from within Word.
How can we use these Custom Contact Fields?
I regularly create manual backups of my pst-files and although it is easy enough, it is quite a lot of clicking to locate and browse to the needed folders.
As I usually do this when shutting down my PC, bringing down the amount of clicks needed to complete this process would encourage me not to skip it.
Is there any way to make it even easier and quicker to backup my pst-files?
I’m receiving various notification emails from the same address which I all store within a single folder (I move them there via a rule based on the From address).
Their subjects are non-distinctive but their message body however holds specific information which I like to group them together by within that folder. With grouping together I mean similar as how you can group messages from the same sender together or messages with the same subject.
For instance, our sales system sends out an email that there is a new order, but what has been ordered is stated in the message along with further details.
Is there a way to still group these messages based on what has been ordered without spreading them out over multiple folders?
I’m using my Outlook.com account on 2 separate computers both running Outlook 2013.
I noticed that the Blocked and Safe Senders Lists of the Junk E-mail Options for my Outlook.com accounts aren’t synchronized. They used to do this when I was still using Outlook 2010 with the Outlook Hotmail Connector.
How can I sync my Junk E-mail Filter lists now that I’m using an EAS account?
I’m working in a large organization with an Exchange account and I recently noticed that everyone within the company can see my free/busy information.
I can understand this importance for a small company or a single department but to everyone else in a large company, I find that my availability is none of their business.
Is there anyway I can hide my availability completely or make it available to just the people I work with?
