    Outlook 2016 Outlook-2016 and iCloud for Windows - Problems

    I don't use it myself, but have a friend who uses it on two computers and has had lots of problems. I found for her after lots of trial and error that downloading both iTunes and iCloud from Microsoft store worked the best. Not sure if the Office is 64 bit though, I suspect not. Diane prefers...

    Hi Diane, In an older thread Scheduled backup of imap account I asked you about backing up an IMAP account and you provided the link with your solution but I'm totally unfamiliar with macros and the VBA editor. The friend that needs this is a real estate agent who has to keep backup as a...

    Embedded photos no longer open with Photos or Photo Viewer

    I did some research, probably the same pages you would have seen. I saw the mention of a signature as a factor, but I noticed that I had a sig and it was not showing up, but rather was an attachment too. (this is being received on an Outlook account hosted by Hostgator). Then I sent from...

    Outlook 365 - Folder pane list clears

    If I was trying to troubleshoot this, I would create a 2nd profile, with only one email account in it. I would NOT want that to be a Google account, and ideally just for purposes of this test, i would want it to be POP3. And see if the issue still occurs.

    Microsoft Outlook 2016 - Gmail not sending, asks for password for SMTP, tried different ports

    Hello Regina, Google considers Outlook to be a "less secure app". You may need to enable a setting in your gmail. Also if that still does not work, you can set up an "App Password". Both are explained, somewhat, here: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6010255

    Inbox shows old email

    I can't say i understand what is going on, but I would start by accessing the webmail version of the account and try to get clues there. Also if the error is happening consistently, then it would be easier to troubleshoot. Try to link the error to one device or the other. I would take the...

    SENT mail not reloading to top??

    Cannot reproduce on my Outlook 2016. Sent folder does refresh automatically, newly sent mail appears on top. Maybe try hitting F5? You said "I then have to click SENT folder, which now highlights the same message, but waaaaay down in the normal order of things" Are they not sorted by date?

    Cannot Move Autocomplete File to New Computer

    Cannot Move Autocomplete File to New Computer

    OK I downloaded NK2Edit and I think I figured out the technique I used previously. Make an extra copy of the .dat file from the old computer first, just to be safe. I don't really trust the .dat file (Stream_Autocomplete file) you are using now so I would start by closing Outlook, renaming...
