How do I change the alert sounds in Outlook for Mac?
How do I change the alert sounds in Outlook for Mac? When I go to Preferences, then Notifications and Sounds, the dropdown menu for Sound Set says Default. There is no other choice of sound sets on that menu. When I click the arrow next to the individual events (New message, Message sent, Reminder, etc.) it plays a sound for each--apparently the only sound available. I've Googled up a few suggestions that didn't work: I went into System Preferences > Notifications and deleted Outlook from the list of applications, then restarted Outlook. No change in Outlook Preferences. I added some new sound files (various formats--.wav, .mp3, .m4a, .aiff) to user>Library>Sounds and restarted my Mac. I still don't have any new options in Outlook Preferences. I found instructions for creating a new sound set in an existing Outlook Sound Sets folder located in user>Library>Group Containers>UBF8T346G9.Office>Outlook>Outlook Sound Sets. I put the same new sounds there. I tried it with them loose in the Outlook Sound Sets folder, and also with them contained in a new folder titled "my new sound set." I quit and restarted Outlook. It didn't give me any new options in Outlook preferences. I have a current Office 365 subscription on a MacBook Pro. The Outlook version is 16.42. I'm running Mac OS 10.14 Mojave.
Keyboard Shortcuts Not Working
In Office for Mac desktop applications (e.g PPT v16.4.4) my keyboard shortcuts have suddenly become non-functional. For example, command-C does not copy, command-V does not paste. They are all "greyed out" in the menus (see image). I am running macOS 11.1 on 16" MacBook Pro. Anyone know a) why this is happening and b) how to turn them back on? I've done searching but have come up empty .
Word for Mac File > Share > Send Document Doesn't Work
Microsoft Word for Mac Version 16.55 (21111400) Mac OS Monterrey 12.0.1 (21A559) When I pull down File > Share > Send Document, Word gives a "donk" (error) sound. Same thing for File > Share > Send PDF. When I do File > Share > Send HTML, the system opens Outlook and appears to prepare an email message to send the file. Any suggestions? By the way, Outlook is not my default email program. A different email program (Spark) is designated for my Mac, using the prescribed but odd way to do that: open the Mac Mail app, and pull down preferences (for Mail), and in the General tab specify the default email reader.When Excel couldn't save a file, 3E0CF950.MACTF was created, but where and by which program?
. Currently running: Mac OS 10.14.6 Excel with Office for Mac 2021 Manual copies to iCloud. Also running with Parallels Desktop: Windows 10 Excel with Office 365 for Windows Autosave copies to OneDrive. Hello, I would appreciate some assistance with an unusual problem involving Excel for Mac 2021 and possibly with Mac OS X, Excel for Windows 365, iCloud, and OneDrive. I generally create, edit, and save my workbooks using Excel for Mac and Excel for Windows 365 on the same file and never had any problem. After making edits to a workbook, I tried to save the file in Excel for Mac 2021. A message appeared saying that it could not save it due to some sharing violation. It did not specify the message's source, nor a directory path or the enclosing directory name to help locate the file. Instead, it instructed me to close the workbook without saving it and to access a file named 3E0CF950.MACTF, rename it and save it as a regular Excel file. Microsoft technical support instructed me to search at: /Library/Containers/com.microsoft.Excel/Data/Library/Preferences/AutroRecovery But the was no AutoRecovery directory. I also searched unsuccessfully on iCloud Drive and OneDrive, where I have autosave enabled when I edit my workbooks in Windows 10. I have also searched for it using Spotlight and the FIND command of the Finder with hidden files made visible. Nada. Although Microsoft tech support thinks that the file does not exist, however, I think it's unlikely that I would get a message so detailed to include the filename if none was created. A similar issue happened about a year ago before I had Excel for Windows installed. I was never able to find a resolution for it. Has anyone else experienced this? Before giving up, would anyone happen to know: Other locations to search on my Mac? A safe command line for Terminal to search more thoroughly? If Excel would create temp files with the ".MACTF" extension, or could this be a product of the Mac OS, iCloud or the OneDrive to which I enable autosave when I edit my Excel workbooks in WIndows? Whether the file name "3E0CF950.MACTF" ïs a random name, or is it a generic file name specific to my issue, and if so, what does it mean? If it's normal for Excel for Mac 2021 to lack an AuitoRecovery folder? Your kind assistance would be much appreciated. Please advise.Microsoft Office 2016 VL Serializer 2.0 won't serialize
I'm going insane with this problem and I can't find the answer. I have installed our Volume License of 2016 for Mac on several computers and used the Serializer and it works just fine. I have one computer that is not working here is what is going on: 1. Computer is domain joined (that is different than the other Macs) 2. User is not a local admin 3. Problem exists, though, with a local admin account (on-machine account). I can run the serializer, it says successful. Immediately after loading Office, it works fine. I don't get the complaint that I have to activate the product. I can open and save documents. But after a period of time, opening Word/Excel, etc it starts prompting that we need to activate. I researched and it seems the .plist file that is put in /Library/Preferences somehow goes away. One time I saw the ....serializer.plist file but not a ....serializerV2.plist file which is what the serializer creates. I can't seem to figure out how to KEEP it serialized. Office is up to date completely with the latest versions of the apps.
Outlook on Mac not showing attachments in email.
Hi there, No tsure if anyone is in this community as everything seems very old. I've got a couple of customers using outlook on Macs to Google Workspace accounts. All has been working fine but lately certain accounts have started to show a paperclip for an attachment but when you open tthe emil the attachment isn't there. The mnail does have an attachemnt cause it can be seen in gmail. Removing the account from outlook and re-adding it has mixed results. Sometimes good for a few days and sometimes only a few hours. One user has the problem fixed for new mails but can't see attachments prior to the date we removed and re-added his account. Google support say they are aware of the issue and that it is on the outlook side. This seems correct because everything is fine in the browser. Looking for some informaiton. Thanks.,
