Still an issue for me today, 1/12/17 - just updated Outlook for Mac to version 15.30 (170107) and SfB 16.2.156.   This used to work for me, works for colleague on a PC version.   

 

While I know my dial-in number, there is no meeting ID provided for callers to use to join the call.  This is useless until repaired.

    Has anyone found out, or has been given, instructions on how to resolve this?

    It seems like a 'hit and hope' on the next release.

        Hey everyone (especially those on this thread),

         

        I recently recieved a few private messages on this topic with pointers back to this thread. Is there anyone who can help us out to clarify if this is still being seen as a problem? If so, here is what we need:

         

        • install the latest Insider build - it should be 16.6.XXX
        • go ahead and recreate the issue reported here
        • The insider builds have an extra feature to submit problems - Help | Report an Issue
        • Let us know on this thread you have reported it (and let us know what your architecture is: Office/2015/2013?

         

        Thanks everyone! Ing eneral, this is a the approach for any issue you might encounter if you can help. Get on an insider build, test to see if you can still recreate it, and then report it using Help | Report an Issue.
